Wrecked her

They said they would not fix it at all. I talked about salvage title options ect. Having a little over 2k left over on the lien after the settlement offer which is amazing I think all things considered $8940 and change
I think the option is finding something else I can work out of (RHD) and hoping I can find something that can be added to that $2k and keep on going. Just not many options with everything else that came up in the last month. I just came out of pocket almost $3k 2 weeks ago having the tyranny rebuilt [emoji17]
Trying to be positive and just get back to work quickly without keeping the rental car longer than needed

Correct! I’ve spotted a few I’m gonna make some calls about tomorrow. The JK’s are much newer and HIGH.

Dubai... I can’t imagine import and freight charges being in my favor as much as I would like to entertain that idea

A whole RHD jeep would cost about 2 grand to ship to a US port. Those that are here come from Japan to be stripped for drivetrain parts. They are generally low mileage, unmodified and drivable. Too much work to do it, but that is the approximate cost.
You need to do the mature , adult thing -
Take your girlfriend out , get her drunk , then show her the Jeep the next morning , and tell her she did it.
Maybe she will file it on her insurance.
If you marry her , having a jeep from then on won't be an issue .
Let us know how it works out .

Lol interesting response
Going through a divorce. She always responded with buys and their toys. I really didn’t get as involved as I wanted. I’m just glad they are giving me a really good pay off for total loss. Just have to make the best of it. The next Jeep. I’ll try your route haha

The grill is irrelevant as long as the rad is intact. Same with the bumper as long as the tire has clearance. The steering, I have trouble believing the axle is damaged. Sure the steering might be out of alignment, something easily replaceable might be bent but this is not a write off.
I'd want to keep the TJ if possible/affordable. But glad you are getting a good settlement HighFive on that !!!! Job wise, moving to a newer JK.... OR 4cylinder JL is a smart move. TJs are now old cars. Just like the CJs and YJs.
I won't sell my TJR but given I drive 24K miles a year, I'm looking at a JK because of the new 2018s discounts. A base Sport is $20K USD in Canada. Stupid to NOT buy one !!!!!

Can I ask what those things are that are attached to the top of your grill?
Those two things that look like giant denim snaps in your photos in post # 1, by each headlight.

Gotcha. I thought that might be what they were but then I also thought they looked like light bulb sockets.
