I should've had my car back by now.
In fact, I should've had my car back before Christmas.
Instead, there's a big fat question mark as to when I'll get it back. Sometime after they REMOVE THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION to replace the RIGHT HALF OF MY CAR.
Turns out, every time they moved something to replace or repair it, they found more damage. The $3,000-and-change price tag for repairs has creeped up to over $6,500.
The auto body guy says my car is the talk of the shop. Everyone knows my name. No one can believe how much damage occurred from what appeared to be a minor fender bender. Murphy's Law's at work here, somewhere, what with the guy being from Florida -- land of no ice -- and sliding his big hunk of steel pickup truck on a slick intersection into my car while not having valid insurance.
Then there was the disturbing fact that the auto body guy said four, count 'em, four times: "I cannot believe your airbags didn't go off."
I think I feel pain in my neck. Don't you?
