Does it make a difference if you were at fault ? I was at fault, my car is repairable but insurance may claim total loss. I need it repaired because I have an irreplaceable feature, free supercharging for life. Over 20 years and fact I use car for biz that requires a lot of driving it is irreplaceable. Does any of this matter in 2024 ?

If I was hit should I call my dads insurance or the at fault driver ? And who should talk my dad or me?

Was the adjuster your insurance or the at fault drivers brother?

Whatever happened to this channel just completely fell off

thanks for the video , this will be very helpful once insurance presents me an offer t-boned not my fault accident. but given the vehicles age 22 yrs old currently , I seriously doubt their going to offer me anything fair . Local comps have them placed in 5800-8500 range with similar mileage.

Why do you sound so nervous you nerd

weirdly enough i have had the 9 speaker alpine in my 2021 2500 limited and also the 17 speaker harmon kardon in a 2022 limited 2500 and i think the alpine sounds the same or better

I was in a total loss accident last Sunday (8 days ago), I had the green light and was going strait and some guy rams my Toyota Tacoma from the left side going 70+ mph (I didnt even have time to react) before I knew it all my airbags deployed and my glasses flew off. I believe that the guy ran the red light but im still waiting for the police report, luckily they had traffic cameras where the accident occurred.

CZcamsr: be nice, don’t be difficult , don’t be asking for more Later… CZcamsr: say no to a fair price

I uploaded $4000 in receipts showing a new engine, transmission and tires. USAA devalued my vehicle $100 from the original settlement amount.

Negotiation? Looking like that's not possible anymore unless I take them to court. A teen pulled out in front of me over a week ago. Their insurance worked fast, sent to the car to a repair shop, the insurance totalled the car. The first estimate was $6,300. They didn't want to fix it, and now offering me $7,300 (2nd offer). They sent me a CCC1 Market Evaluation Report. Insurance said to me, price won't change unless you find similar cars around the same mileage for more money. I literally can't negotiate at all unless I hire an attorney. I'm so screwed lol. I still had $5k left to pay on the loan. :/

Going through this right now in Oregon. I was heading down 6 near the Tillamook area and hit a patch of black ice around 5 am. Lost my truck on Monday as it is a total loss. First time of having to go through this and the the truck was a 2021 Ford Ranger Tremor in an amazing condition. Just hope i can get something to help pay for a new truck later on.

The more and more I look I to this the more and more Insurance looks like a scam.

11 speaker , no one knows about the sub in the center console

Those tall green things that metropolitan planners clear out to build concrete jungle’s are actually C02 scrubbers, they are known as trees by us simple Southern folks. The environmental issue is the density of humans and concrete is too high. I recommend a full delete of both.

My X was an Uber driver. Had a total loss, in a new car, not his fault. Between Uber and his private car and Uber add on he ended up settling for nothing, at all.

Its trash , a 3 band eq in an Alpine is a sin, thry cheapened their own self down to unsettable audio.. Lamest Alpine i have ever seen and they cost way to much, horrible quality.. dont praise trash simply because you have 1..

Interesting approach. My 2012 Prius was a total loss this year, 2024. State Farm offered me 10,579. Long story short, I took it. To me, it seemed quite fair. I had had it since 2016, purchased for 14,900. Now I have a 2024 hybrid Rav 4 LE. Love it. My first new vehicle, and I am 64. The out-the-door was 34,700. I am happy for you that your negotiating was favorable.

Incorrect. At higher speeds and higher temps one’s engine is producing the least NOx. The greatest NOx emissions occur below 25 mph. That’s from Cummins own studies. At 25mph one can readily produce more than 5 times more NOx than cruising at hwy speeds. Cummins has white papers on the topic. My Cummins 6.7, as measuring NOx sensors 1 and 2 display about 100-350 ppm on the SCR input. My 2nd sensor at the SCR outlets typically reads ZERO! Yes, zero. It jumps to 1 or 2 ppm at moments when I lug down slow for turns in side streets.

How does it work when your dealing with the other parties insurance? My daughters car is 85% damage to value but to get her into another vehicle and deal with her current loan as well which shouldn't be a big deal as we took options but I want a down payment for her to get another vehicle as she is a student.

My car was hitten by third party from the rear side. It was not too bad to drive. It was very nice car. The engine is very good and I just purchased it 1.5 months ago. After 15 days , today I received a call from insurance company, they told me your car is now will go to total loss. She told me you will only got 3900 dollars because your total covered amount was 5800 dollars and you paid 2 installments for insurance your rest of the 10 installments will deduct from 5800 and you will get rest of amount. Please someone suggest me something about that because i purchased car for 7000 dollars . My insurance company is AAMI. I purchased online insurance. I live in Sydney. Please help me out because i didnt agree with the given payment because there was not my fault. Third person hit my car. Suggest me something.. thank you

Great video brotha!! So, Im anticipating my vehicle to be a total loss, but that's to be determined at the body shop tomorrow. Do I negotiate the value of my vehicle and set my number with my adjuster BEFORE or AFTER I take it in and its deemed a loss?

I accidentally cut one of the wires behind the felt. What are they. Help. Please

Hi there! I am dealing with other party's insurance for total loss for my vehicle. I won't be able to get same car with which the insurance going to pay me with this difficult times when the prices of cars are sky high. Please advise me how can I find out my car's real value as if I were to sell an individual before accident so I can convince insurance to get what I deserve. Thank you so much!

Wife got her 1999 4Runner hit while it was parked and totaled

Fantastic info. Loved hearing both sides. I'm a female and have had my 2017 Ram 2500 since Dec. of 2016. I am fully committed to running it until it completely falls apart. I hope to have it at least another 20 years. Love my truck. I am a horse and agriculture gal too so I want to be good to the earth, but honestly I want to keep my truck running top notch even more. I'll offset my carbon footprint some other way. 😁 Also been having codes regarding the emissions system and after replacing the actuator, removing & cleaning the EGR valve and still getting new codes I am really considering deleting it. Next is to clean the turbo before making that decision. Since I only run my truck around town anymore for the last few years it makes sense that it is getting clogged up. At least now I understand why. 😊

My question is you think it’s a good idea when your insurance company is wanting to total your vehicle to ask for a second opinion from a different shop because the first shop kind of inflated the price of the repair, which is wanting the insurance company to total the vehicle when I feel it should be fixed?

how will this work if its a brand new car i just purchase and 2 month later i get it total lost. should i ask for the price for it new i cannot find any use one. its a crv 2024 hybrid awd. I'm getting a call in 2 days with a settlement offer. i check all dealers near me and they selling it for 35k.

I have a vehicle with 184K miles declared total loss due a rear end accident (I was hit). Luckily the car only has cosmetic damage and is still driveable but because its 13 years old and has high milage, the person who hit me, their insurance deemed it a total loss and willing to pay me 4K for it. In NJ (where I am) if the vehicle is declared total loss, my title would be flagged as a salvage title and I wont be able to drive the cR. With what car prices are right now, I dont think I would really get good value. Can the insurance company report my cars title as total loss or salvage if I walk away from the settlement. The law is confusing and Im wondering if I can continue to drive the car? Pleasese Help as the DMV are no help!

Saving the environment one plastic bottle at a time. 😂

I crashed my car in my work parking lot and filed a claim I think the car is totaled idk what to do

Ur low on def

It's neat and all, but I would actually be putting a bed on top of the folded down seats with wedges to make it a flat laying surface. I'll be covering the back wall with a flag or something. Maybe I'll mount my VR80 and spare mags back there lol. Cool video man, I hope a 23 3500 crew cab is similar.

Crap video just get to the tips

Could you comment on where you purchased the blistering lift kit. Ty

how much space would you say there is behind there? would it fit a viair compressor?

I bought a Titan XD Diesel and can’t be happier. Towing more than 10k pounds that’s more than your horse trailer and horse put together 😂

Thanks for your video. Looking to start negotiations today or tomorrow. She asked for my loan payout first. I would think my truck loan has anything to do what my truck is worth. Is this normal negotiating tactic on insurance company part?

But yeah don’t be doing that it’s to big of a risk lol next time you stay in the vehicle until it gets dropped they can’t drive with person inside like even if cops gatta show up

I was gonna take the first offer cause i needed money.but i bought it for more then what they offered me a year ago and could not find the same car for what they offered me so i said no.i am still waiting for next offer.

Headlights should just be on for safety 100% of the time when driving.

Are you going to tell us about our cars extended warranty?

I took my whole back seat out of my ram and I needed a breaker bar cause it was stripping my ratchets.

You must’ve got taken advantage by your insurance company because you didn’t mention any facts about the additional tax added into the settlement if you were to replace a vehicle at a dealer even if you got $6000 you still got a pay taxes and fees there for the responsibility of the insurance company to for fill all finance causes related to the total loss in the settlement agreement

Sooo 1. Say no 2. Don’t give a price 3. Can’t agree on price- appraise it 4. Try to avoid court

What about a vehicle that's been customized and that competes in carshows

Junk, Money pit and problems all they are. If have a back up truck and long pockets then this truck will pull a house and comfortable as can be but you will be under and in it or someone will & you’ll pay for it while u drive something else due to EGR/def issues

Go figure, the guy that wrecked his truck is driving around distracted talking to his camera to make a You Tube video. 🤦‍♂

Can the amp bs turned UP?
