so I was on my way to the store to finish shoppin for Christmas for daughter.. then all of sudden a snow storm hit ..another buffalo NY winter..... as I was driving, the roads were fine but as soon as I got on the expressway it was it was one of the worst conditions I've seen here no plows or nothing.......so I'm driving about 35-40 everythings going good.. then a truck swerved towards me i tried to avoid contact then all hell broke loose i started to swerve and lost control and these are the results right into the guard rail

 

damn thats pretty bad lookin, I hope youre ok.

 

omg this winter is having no mercy on TLs... sorry dude =\ good thing ur in one piece

 

Yikes. Nice to hear you're OK. I don't want to sound like a douche barking out repair costs (or lack there of) so I'll keep it to myself :p

 

Sucks, man. Doesn't look promising for your TL but that doesn't matter; As long as you're safe, that's what matters. Best of luck.

 

damn, doesnt look too good. Hope everything is ok.

 

thanks guys.... do yall think its totaled

 

Can't really tell from just that picture. Insurance is VERY weird though, they'll total stuff out that shouldn't be and vise versa. You kinda never know haha. Glad your alright though, you can replace a car...not a person.

 

it looks like too much damage up front... i wouldnt try to salvage it =\

 

wow! glad you are ok...

Not to be a dick - But if thats ABP and you keep the car - Wanna part with some parts!?

 

Ouch. Sorry to see

I hope you weren't hurt!

 

Sorry to see that Dro-damn Buffalo winters.....

 

damn...really sad to see the TL in this condition and that was a lovely color too. Hope you are doing well. Now I am scared to drive over to Philly the day before Christmas, driving all the way from Toronto so gotta keep an eye on the weather before departing.

 

sorry to see man, glad you are ok. this is the exact reason i left my TL in texas

 

Glad you are safe.
Looks like your TL protected you well. Best of luck fixing/replacing her.
I continue to be amazed at how well these cars do in some of the atrocious crashes posted by other members. Please guys, be safe out there.

 

Was this today? We didn't get any snow in Toronto. Hope everything you're ok.

 

Wow glad your ok.

 

Could've been a heck of a lot worse, glad to hear you're okay.

Honestly, I think the damage looks worse than it is. Aside from the cosmetic parts (hood, fenders, bumper etc.), it looks like just the radiator was pushed back. Coin toss IMO.

Anyways, best of luck dealing with insurance and getting back on the road again

 

woah another accident?! its getting crazy. glad to hear youre okay!

 

Glad to hear you're okay man. I don't think it's totaled though.. Hard to say, looks like your air bag deployed in the picture?

 

What are you driving in PA then?

And to OP;
I say this to everyone who gets into accident that's serious; PUSH TO HAVE INSURANCE TOTAL YOUR CAR IF YOU CAN!
Between my own personal experience with my TL and IHC's horror stories about the body shop that worked on his TL...ugh. But that's just me..Idk why but I can never look at a car the same after it's been in an accident. I just get sketched out.

The TL's a very common car. Easily replaceable, but we can't replace you bro. Real talk, I'm glad you're ok.

 

man sorry to see this. glad your okay. hopefully they total it out, it looks like a lot of damage up front

 

dang good to know you're ok

 

op hope you are doing ok, also notice there's been a few tl accidents lately. drive safe over the winter season

 

Damn that's crazy. At least you were able to walk away from it.

 

Wow i am sorry to see that man! It looks like both bags are blown so my guess she will be a total loss! Keep us updated!

 

Glad to hear you're okay! We just started December and already 2 TLs in accidents that I've read about on here. Sorry to hear that and hope the insurance company works things out for you. Did you have winter tires on there??

 

Glad you're okay OP. Next time let the dickhead hit you so you don't have to pay your deductible.

 

Damn sorry to see man. I'm willing to bet the TL will be totaled out. At least you're alright.

 

Damn that sux bro, but the good thing is that you are allright

 

thanks again everyone... but i wont know anything probably until next week weather really suck.......i will keep everyone updated

 

08 Jeep 4x4

 

Good ur ok.
Prolly gonna total it.

 

Ouch glad to hear you're okay at least. Cars can be fixed. Lives can't be replaced.

 

Wow I'm sorry for your loss dude, that's a horrible situation that you happened to be in. best of luck glad you're okay man.

 

that sucks.

The car does not seem total

 

Thank god you are safe and didnt hit the truck.

The car it will be totaled depends of the year. If it is 04-06 the value should be a lot less than 07-08 or even a type-S. Hope is not my friend.

Thank god i live in the carribean.

 

That's something I was always taught. Especially if it's a situation where they're changing lanes into you and you swerve into the car on your other side. Now they're fine and you're paying the deductable plus you're at fault.

 

yep.. plus it give you an opportunity to see if you can slide out their rear by pushing out their rear quarter panel. Fun to see their shocked reaction of being a dipshit and not checking their blind spot.

 

This.
