Not a total

Nonsense. A car isn't declared a total until the damage is above a certain percentage of it's value and if it's really 20K then it's nowhere near a writeoff.

And when a car is totalled, it becomes the property of the insurance company and the bank or leasing company that owns it gets paid first. The former owner does NOT get to sell parts off it.

Your insurance company will pay but they might decline to renew your policy (because of how you wrecked the car) which is the kiss of death when you try to find another insurer.

Doesn't matter, then. If the insurer decides to total it, when they pay you, they then own it.

And they would most likely depreciate it.

Lots of consequences to screwing around, aren't there?

Wow. This kind of thing makes you really watch out for drivers like this. Dude you are scary. No insult intended, but that could have got you killed. Or someone else.

I hope you learned your lesson, and hope you can get your car back. If you do, you need to keep it. Don't sell that to anyone else. Hopefully your insurance will not drop ya like it's hot.

$20k is well more than 50% of the value of the car and that = total loss. not sure what insurance company you have, but mine's Farmers.

on a total loss car you are allowed to take anything off that you put on extra, but 99% of the time they will not care if take some extra stuff off. The car will be sold off by the insurance company to an auction house or to a junkyard. They won't take another look at the car after it's declared total loss by one of their inspectors. You are still the legal owner of the car until insurance hand you the fat check for the car.

Lets all reread the TOU; especially the section about language. I've got some signed vacation slips. All they need is for me to fill in a name.

UNDERSTOOD

Thanx
