    Malas talaga kahapon.

    I was idling behind a Lancer along EDSA (near Cubao) when all of a sudden I felt a massive collission from behind. Good thing though that I was standing on the brakes and I was also able to engage the engine brake (as I was in first gear and the sudden jerk made me release the clutch pedal but not the brake pedal). Even though I was just 2 feet or so away from the Lancer, I didn't hit him.

    I thought at first that my rear was smashed... but I was surprised that the damage was confined only to the right rear bumper extension & some scratches to the body cladding.

    Total estimate for the job? P17,144 - including the replacement of the bumper, repainting of the bumper & body cladding, and rustproofing.

    Damn! Good thing you're okay Mazda2. Like I always tell my buds, it's better to have a short ache on your pocket than to have a longer ache on your body. What kind of vehicle hit you?

    Malas talaga M2, good thing its a relatively small damage and good thing you were stepping on your brakes kundi sandwich ka. BTW, what car hit you? Looks like a taxi based on the damage

    A Honda Accord hit me... butas ung bumper nya... may scrape yung headlamps & misaligned ng konti yung hood.

    Medyo nakikipag negotiate pa kami ngayon kung paano is settle... sabi ko sa kanila bayaran na lang nila ang participation fee na P7,500.

    That's a good enough deal for them. Sana pumayag. Hirap nyan 'dre, baka baratin ka. 'Lam mo naman ang ibang tao: hihirit kung makaka-hirit.

    participation fee na 7,500, kasama na ba dyan depreciation ng parts? usually diba 1% sang coverage mo ang participation, plus ang parts if 3 yrs old na 25% depreciation. Pa double check mo lang sa insurance mo just to be sure.

    Do we have tires that won't go flat and vehicles that grip the road through rain. We need tires that adjust to the weather the tires can prevent sliding when it's raining. And tires that adjust to conditions like mud, sand, wind, dirt and spills on the road. Tires that are long wearing and a good value. Tires that make a fashion statement. Different colors of tires instead of black. Maybe purple or blue, something to match the car color!

    Peace

    less than 2 yrs pa lang naman ang rav4 ni M2 kaya wala pang depreciation. participation lang ang babayaran.
