Wow!!

Best of luck man!

This is really getting shitty for you. Just keep looking up man. Things can only get so bad and then it turns around.

Wow that's fucked!! I REALLY hope they don't try to pin this on you by saying you arranged it being stolen. Hopefully it works out in your favor in the end though.

Holy shit. Holy fucking shit.

This log is almost unbelievable, it just gets worse and worse.


I'll be waiting for more info, but I hope the car is either beyond repair and you come out on top, or it's repairable and insurance takes care of it, the car ends up in better shape than before, and you can trade it in on the Scion.

Good luck in this latest adventure, Josh.

I guess this is an adventure, eh?

I filled out all the insurance papers, gotta get em notarized and sent out. I was browsing cases of insurance fraud/arson and I don't fit the profile.

I'm not broke, i never missed a payment on any bill in my entire life, and I still have a job. I make a decent wage and I'm not ass up in debt.

My god though, here is hoping for the best. The days are getting harder and harder to get through.

no, i'm not saying what happened to it. only reason i even mentioned anything was because some people where going to come down saturday... and well, there's not a car to work on.

if everything pans out, and i no longer have the cobalt, there will be no new car in the future. i'm buying the peon from my girlfriend, driving it till it blows up and saving up money.

i'm sick of cars, sick of the headache, and i can't do it anymore. if i get something new, it wont be for a good long time and i'll have a healthy downpayment first.

No fucking way. This is really a time in your life that is testing your ability to keep going on despite all of this crap. I feel for you Josh.

Keep the money and treat yourself to whatever will help you and your better half. Stay strong man.
If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

I know what it is like to have BS snowballed at you like it is simply snow. Between personal life and auto life there is nothing better sometimes than to call the generalization of life, Bull Shit.
I know, and you know that this cobalt is clearly been bull shit to you. It wasn't ment to be. The entire time I owned my SRT it was bull shit, and clearly wasn't ment to be.

I've read every post and I feel for you, I've been in your shoes and am still recovering from BS similar to this so I can't offer fiscal help, other than the prayer you end up somewhat on top like I(very luckily somehow) did.

I can tell you though, you bit into a bad apple; and it sucks... I don't know about you, but I'm a car enthusiast at heart and will continue with my new project, but will greatly revise my game plan. I sincerely hope from the bottom of my heart that you end up on top and everything works out. I hope you end up with that Scion or whatever you wanted. Since it was clear to me from the joy you had in the beginning of your Cobalt when it was stock that your a car enthusiast. Everyone just gets that bad apple at somepoint.

This isn't one of those suck it up posts, its a hope post. I hope you make it threw this, because I smell fish, and it kind of smells like rotten fish that might try and fight you. You are better than whoever or whatever is trying to "f" with you. You have been very mature and positive through the entire situation, and eventually it will come back to work in your favor, so keep it up.


Good luck with everything, and I hope I'm not to drunk, because I put a lot of thought into this post. You have my best wishes.

Man, Josh. Not sure if this is a win, or a lose. Sounds like a lateral move, good luck, bro.

I don't know what to say that hasn't been already...

Good luck and I hope everything works out for you, for the better. I can only imagine how crappy of a situation it must be and have been from the get-go, but again, one guy to another, best of luck with it all! :)

Would this be a bad time to say that all my headlight gaskets have disappeared and I cant find new ones either.

The best 1gn care package I can put together is on its way :D
