Insurance Adjuster

It was way last May when we had the blown tire on Toad II. It did some damage to the Suzuki, tearing up the left bumper, fender and various other parts including the lines to the window washer. Because we were concentrating on getting everything done so that Forry could have his back surgery, we didn't worry about getting the car fixed. We got new tires and a new rim and wired the bumper and fender back up and went with it.

 

But, the time has come to get things repaired, so I started the process last Thursday by filing a claim with our insurance company, National  General Insurance Company. I thought they might give us some flack about waiting so long to report the claim, but they were very understanding about dealing with the surgery first. Today the adjuster, David Beveridge came to the RV park to look at the car (he was actually apologetic about not coming on the 4th of July...).

He seemed to be very through, climbing under the car even. By the time he left, he had set things up with an outfit called Custom Body over on North Monroe. Sounds like they will be able to take Toad II next week and will need 4-5 days. Our policy allows for a rental car, so Enterprise will be meeting us at the body shop.

We will be here until the 30th of July, so that gives us a few days for whatever will go wrong. I'm betting it will be more like a two week process than a 4-5 day one...
