Luckily my Rivian was still at home sitting under a blanket of snow.

Don't have a proper size spare for my winter wheels on the Sierra, so I had to have it towed.

Totalled, you think?

I’d hope not - but if the battery tray was scratched maybe.

It could be, but it doesn't look terrible from that one image. Are there any airbags deployed?

@Dark-Fx Ran across a fisker ocean on the road yesterday and was going to reach out this evening to see how your rebuild was going. Looks like you have other things to focus on at the moment.

Sorry dude ?

That's about $10K of damage; $15K if you want it absolutely perfect. I feel your pain!

Oh no - very sorry to hear. Hope you and everyone else are okay and without significant injury.

If it’s totaled, maybe you can get both Gen 2 Quad T and S. I think you have a T on order?

Take care. My minor collision repair Hawaii is finally process after 4 months.

Oh no. Doesn’t look totaled from the pic but who the hell knows these days. As long as all of you are ok, that is the important part.

No. My post was mostly tongue in cheek about the overly sensational titles of minor issues and the minor accident damage that probably doesn't need much more than a good PDR guy to fix the panel.

I didn't bother putting the winter tires on the Ocean this year. I might do it now though, I like having another car to drive if the one I'm in has issues, or gets hit, apparently.

Yeah, I'm more concerned about the time it's going to take to get the repair done. Haven't heard good things about the new GM trucks on that front either.
