Yes, they kinda **** me off sometimes, but on the other hand, you can't blame them. If they just took everyone's word on what was lost or stolen, our premiums would be higher than what they are now. It's a good reminder for all of us to make sure we have all our receipts, serial numbers and pictures of everything we own.

The insurance finally paid off on the trailer. Not near enough to replace it with something near a nice, but better than nothing. Still waiting for my home owners to make a decision on everything else. They are balking big time...............

WARNING! If you have replacement cost home owners insurance with State Farm (and probably others) read the fine print! You will find a big deductible, which I knew about, and you will also find huge depreciation's that is not guaranteed payment until you are out a lot of $$$ out of pocket. So far, nearly $6k in losses and they want to pay $408.

Well I got the new car. Its beautiful.. but I want to make the wheels black. What do you think? Powder coating or paint? Remembering that the car will be driven on some northern salted roads.

I'm hoping the Tiguan TDI comes over from Europe soon... We would probably move her up pretty quick. She is about done with school so her driving will drop quite a bit. Touregs are sharp, but retarded expensive and still not great on the consumer reports...
Otherwise we may swap for another Jetta or Passat towards the end of the year, don't want to even touch the car, so warranty out at 36k kinda makes me wanna jump to another. Amazing to me how well the car holds its value. Even out of warranty with 40k the trade in value is only like 4-5k off sticker.

So far its been incredible. Only 700 miles in though... I extended the warranty to 7/100k for safe measure. I had the wheels powdered black and they came out awful so i will have to get them re worked 
always research your powder coater is what I learned during this deal.
