last week jon's car randomly broke down. when i say broke down, i mean gone. dunzo. totaled. ugggggh. somehow he got a hole in his oil pan and in a matter of 10 minutes (?) all the oil leaked out of his car, which caused the engine to seize. awesome right? so fortunately he has free towing, so he had it towed to the closest vw dealership. next comes the big questions...what happened? and will his insurance cover it?
the dealership conducted a "breakdown" where they take it all apart to try and figure out what caused the hole. (***if something in the engine failed causing the hole, the insurance does NOT cover it ***but if an outside object such as a person creating the hole or a rock hitting the pan caused the hole, the insurance WILL cover it) okay so after the "breakdown" the dealership concluded that something had impact with the pan, causing it to move, and a sprocket from inside caused it to fail and created the hole? (i know NOTHING about engines so that probably makes no sense. it doesnt make sense to me either) But the fact of the matter is that SOMETHING did hit the pan, and caused the engine to fail. right?
Wrong. Apparently the insurance company wanted to be lame.com and still say that they would NOT cover it.
poor jon. he was so frustrated. (and so was I)
so after endless phone calls, threats, and arguing, the insurance claims adjuster came back out to the dealership yesterday and reevaluated the situation and DECIDED THAT THEY WOULD COVER THE DAMAGE! meaning jon's car is going to get a whole new engine in his car! (i think) hallelujah.
Happy Jon+Happy Ashley
so happy jon got his butt down to the dealership this morning to pick up his rental car....

yes. a kia rondo. the most horrifying "not quite a car, not quite a minivan" on the face of the planet. it was the ONLY car on the lot. and trust me, Jon tried so hard to get it switched. (sorry to anyone who may own, or may ever-in-their-life think of purchasing the above mentioned "car")
i personally think he'll look very sexy strolling around in this hunk of metal for the next two weeks or so. Watch out texas ladies...he's MINE!
***Plus it brings back the sweet memories of endless laughter when the buhls also were put to shame in their RENTAL RONDO a few years back. I made fun of darci so bad. and now it's our turn to share in the joys. but luckily jon gets to hog this experience all to himself ***
