I thought it was a male driver?

Either way.. if the driver didn't have it towed directly to the dearlership.. not to mention not even CALL the dealership, then it was probably something they did.. bummer.

She probably didn't even consider the dealership - probably called her insurance. Believe it or not, most people probably would. That's what they have insurance for - covering their losses. If the insurance company wants to know what happened, they can work on it - it's not the end user's problem.

From what was said in MUCH earlier posts, that appears to be exactly what happened.

Good point. I suppose it's easier to think otherwise from a different point of view.. as is with anything in life.

Default Tryin to get the other pics

wuzup people...(I havent been on here in a while but i see that this thread is getting big, anyway) okay I have more pics of the car, great shots too! but mike doesnt seem like he wants to show the other pictures. I am working on it but i guess he wants to hold on to the picture to keep the value. (he got made at me for posting the first two pictures)

Don't diss a photographer for thinking they can sell their work. If they want to try and sell something, that's their choice. If they make something or not, then that's the way it is. ( That's just the way it is.. some things never chaaaange..)


On the other hand... I don't think it's going to lose any value whether or not it's posted. Oh well. Same deal: his choice!
