So unfortunately my car was hit again and this time it is quite serious. A (likely) drunk driver plowed into a series of parked cars. The first point of impact at high speed was my Model 3.
The good news, let me tell you, the car is quite safe. The passenger compartment is undisturbed in any way and the car barely moved from the impact.
The next two cars that they plowed into, were both written off as totaled. They looked much worse inside than the Model 3 that took the brunt of the hit.
Now for the bad news, the damage is extensive.. Its currently being assessed at a certified body shop.
The insurance seems to think it will be a repair, but I'm concerned about the extent of it and the fact that this will take months and far longer than any rental coverage.
The adjuster also seems unsure of how to value the car. He casually mentioned maybe 50k.. to which I responded.. wrong Tesla, mine is an LR and was under 50k when new.. before any accidents.
