Insurance approved the estimate to repair the car. $7332.27

That is a lot...
Not too crazy, we (my wife) backed into a pole in a parking garage and the whole rear gate needed to be replaced.. 4.5K

2018 CRV tho with the back up camera and power lift gate.

If your accident was bad enough to give you a concussion but not total the car, I'm guessing the list of parts are bumper, bumper bar, exhaust muffler, rear quarter panels, and maybe the trunk lid or gate?

Hope you're feeling better btw :)

Very close.

Hatch, bumper, rear rebar, paint and some smaller parts.

Less headaches now :)

German cars are so ridiculous. I took my Touareg to a dealer for an inspection and parts list. They included the labor estimates if I wanted the garage to do any of the work.

$420 for one low beam bulb.

Actual cost to do it myself, $26.

In line at a carwash, an old man mixed up his pedals lol, and was squishing into the bumper of my M340i, to the point his licence plate number was imprinted hahaha. Poor guy looked liked the dude from "Up", and just panicked once he hit my bumper. Bumper replaced, but the ECU was in the trunk. Price?

$18K

you have a 2015 TDI, right?
Nope 2009, currently sitting in my garage about to have the starter replaced. $2500 stealer quote, actual OEM part cost $300. The starter is in the absolute worst place though, nestled right between the engine block and the transmission near the firewall.

I just had to change my starter my older Veedub. I take it to a local mechanic. Stealerships are the worst.

forget HGH and Botox.. there is the future for anti aging

the next fad in vanity pharmaceuticals. It will increase oxygen flow and so reduce skin aging. Richer oxygen may slow the aging process. compatible will all blood types and does not cause infections or rejection like other animal hemoglobin,

Investment opportunity boys.. a company in FRANCE , there are undoubtedly NA based companies.

Speaking of anti aging…just saw this in progress. Interesting summary of various studies.

I always found it funny that Ray Kurzweil takes 100 supplements a day. I mean I know the guy is smarter than all of us but….??

I started taking supplements a little while ago, just some B vitamins, a One a Day and PresserVission. I do feel a bit better for it.

I was thinking about getting a hair loss/regrowth supplement and laser light comb or hat. It’s Black Friday after all. Any recommendations? It’s all stress related.

I also take multivitamin now as well as starting vitamin D for winter
I take athletic greens and drink bone broth now. I have been doing it for most of this year, and I definitely feel better than I have in the past. I'm not sure if it's actually doing anything or a placebo, but yolo. I also make smoothies every day with chia seeds, which is something I got into last year.

Shave your head and get a tan. I have been shaving my head forever. I do not recommend taking finasteride, aka propecia for your hair loss I know people who have had nasty side effects from it.

watch:

There are also good forums filled with lots of knowledge

I wait all week long to spend Saturday afternoon watching commercials.. I mean 4-8 hours, straight.

What do they do? interrupt it with a few moments of Ohio Sate v. Michigan.

when does this end.. why must we endure programing, when all we want is to relax on a Saturday watching commercials.

f***, will they ever learn to be reasonable.

So I made an appointment with a psychologist for January 5th. I had a rough October…

Without going into detail, I went through six consecutive personal tragedies and I’m certain I will have to quit my job over all of this.

The hardest part is it’s bringing up the worst memories of my past. Does anyone have any tips or books to suggest for PTSD?

I just got my license back yesterday (I lost it December 17th, 2010) and I still find myself pacing around the kitchen, pulling my newly grown beard, saying “I want to go home.”

Sorry to hear you are going through a rough time. Good to hear you made an appointment. Therapy helps.
