During the recent storm up here in the Northwest, one acquaintance of ours ended up with 26 trees in their house. It was windy that day. Sorry to hear about your van. I just got my Westy, and am in the process of getting insurance coverage. Ron's and the previous accounts of damage and insurance wrangling has made me a little less indifferent about the whole subject. Don't know exactly what I'm going to do yet, but I'll definitely not get 'the standard used car policy.' Good luck, Matt
-----Original Message----- From: Shazam Subject: Re: My Westy is totaled! Wow ~! Bummer ! Imagine the force required to do that. It would be interesting to calculate the weight of the tree, many thousands of pounds I would imagine. Does it still run ? You could advertise it as 'runs, needs work.' Those trees man, they can be deadly in storms. Scott |
