Part it out on here and ebay... Why would you drop all that money into a car and on rings but not have decent insurance????

Lesson learned I hope, good luck with parting it out.

Agree, part it out. The same happen to me 5 yrs ago but with a different car. And a couple of months later I regreted keeping it and fixing it. Cars are dime a dozen. Just move on to another one or upgrade.

But believe me, there is a good reason why the car wasn't fully insured...and I dropped less than two grand on my car because I got everything so cheap and through the org.

Either way....lesson learned indeed.

The engagement ring, however, IS fully insured under my home owners insurance.

Smart move

I insure the $hit out of everything of value living in NYC... Over $15k in wedding bands on our hands.... I really don't want to buy those again.

But what’s the reason for not fully insuring the car?
