What a way to end Thanksgiving....
After spending turkey day at my mom place, I come back to my car to find it being smacked up on the passenger rear. By the looks of the yellow paint transfer, I am pretty sure it was a nyc cab. The TL is in the shop and I get a rental... a Ford Fusion SE. Holy moly... this car gives me motion sickness. Definitely not my cup of tea. I am going to see if Hertz has something else they can put me into tomorrow because I cant deal with this boat. The TL definitely spoiled me and I miss it dearly....

 

Sorry to hear. Any pix?

Hertz should be able to get you into something else.

 

Those fusions are tanks with horrible suspension and tremendous lag. I test drove one and couldn't get out of it fast enough. lol

Good luck with car

 

Here is a pic of the damage I took with my phone

 

Phew, doesn't look too bad, but I hear you! The TL will definitely spoil you...

 

Sorry to hear about it. Hate the a**holes that just do that and drive away.

 

sorry to hear that. I know it hurts.

TL spoils everyone Ford Fusion is bad. I had it for one day. No comparison.

 

Sorry to see that. Nothing will piss a person off more than a hit and run, just inconsiderate buttheads.
Good luck with the repairs. Post the results, always curious how easy or difficult body repairs can be to deal with.

 

Shit man, I feel your pain. Good luck with the repairs on your baby.

 

That pics looks almost exactly the same as the damage I got last winter...again, the guy didn't stick around.

In my case, the quote fro mthe body shop was $2,500CDN, but as there was no actual body damage (just paint), I was able to get it done by a detailer for about $1,000 CDN.

 

I feel your pain - my TL was in the shop for a month after the worst hail storm in recent history - It was like getting a brand new car though afterwards!

 

Estimate came out to $2200.... Its a good thing I updated my insurance to $500 deductible few months back.

Returned the Ford Fusion and got a GMC Terrain. So much better.... But still... Missing the TL...

 

I feel your pain! I had an RLX loaner for a day and even though it's a nice car...there was nowhere near the fun factor of my 6MT TL. I couldn't wait to get my baby back! I also realized how much I've come to love the way my TEIN SA's feel. When going over speed bumps in the RLX I felt like it was going to throw me out of my seat...way too bouncy for my taste!

Hopefully you'll be back in your TL soon...

 

I had an RLX loaner for a month and I know what you mean about the bumps. On a smooth road it was a great riding car though.

 

I totally get what you're talking about, my tl is currently in the shop getting repainted because of Acura's cbp paint defect. Got a tsx as a loaner but its nothing like the tl. Anyways sorry to hear about what happened to your car.
