Well, after nearly 20 years in the car business, I will make the following comments:


I would bet money that this fellow tried to trade in that truck within the last 30 days or so, and found out that he owed much more than it was worth. The easiest way to total your vehicle for an insurance job is to have a "boat ramp accident" .

I have seen it on quite a few occasions.

If you notice, even if you search google and youtube for pics and videos, notice that it is almost always a fairly new tow vehicle that takes the swim. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

My wife bout drug my previous bay boat out the water half on the trailer half off. I was ****ting my pants and going nuts for her to stop. She had the F250 trucking it out b4 i could get my whole boat off the trailer. Had the whole parking lot at Prien and probably a few neighbors attention from yelling so loud at her. She had a "BLONDE MOMENT"

At least that guys truck is completely submerged and can't be identified...b/c im sure someone on here knows who this is.

Yep, it happens all the time and the insurance companies take it in the azz but, we pass the cost along to everyone else.
What the dumbazzes don't realize is, they are on the hook for any difference in what we pay and they owe.
Wife said these were kids so, it might have been Daddy's truck

I bet one reason they would owe so much more than there vehicle is worth is because of no down payment and they bought gap insurance but no extended warranty! they drive 36,000+ miles and can't afford to get there crap fixed!
