QUOTE(ScoobyDooCruiser @ Jun 5, 2006 - 10:00 AM) [snapback]441242[/snapback] That sucks bout the car. Get it out of impound (or whatever it is) soon. Some places charge by the day to store the car. You show up to get your car back with the $$$, but then they tell you you need more $ than you brought cause of charges. Yeah Im working on it right now, my dad thankfully is going to try & help me out. Capital One said I have 10 days to pay them in full of any past due payments (like randy was thinking) So if & when we can send them the money they said to sent them an express moneygram....then I can go to the storage place holding my car & get my baby back! We will have to pay the storage a $75 fee for whatever plus $25 for every day its in storage. Sooo....gotta work fast to make this happen! Im feeling better about it today - no more crying - well im trying not to anyway  This is my temp. ride for now...my friend said I can borrow it if I give it a bath....DEAL!   --------------------  |

OMG what would I do w/ out my family!
GOOD NEWS 'Amysmojo' will be home some time before the end of the week. A family member heard about the mess I got myself into & has offered to pay for my late car payments + make the July & August payments to give me a head start on getting my bills under controll.....on top of that this same family member said if I get a part time job - then they will match whatever I make each week so that I can get my debt paid off once & for all I am speechless...this person is my HERO. My whole family knows how much my car means to me...I think they want it to come back home just as much as I do!! anyway thanks for all your replies everyone - its nice to know im not alone. -------------------- |

When we got there to rescue my car from "jail" I couldnt resist & had to take a picture lol The first pic is in black & white because i forgot to change my settings...   BTW Our cars handle soooo well....its easy to over look but after driving that mustang around...I Now know how awesome our cars are. I even hugged it & kissed it when I got there hahaha (you all would have done the same truuuust me) This post has been edited by amysmojo: Jun 7, 2006 - 9:14 PM -------------------- |

now that you have your car back, hire a lawyer and get those ****ers to buy you new tires for your wheels. dragging a car from a driveway with the e-brake on is vandalism. i am serious, if i were any closer to you (and american) i would raise such a stink they would smell it all the way to Sydney, Australia. talk to legal aid or go through small-claims court. they had no right to ruin your tires. things like this pee me off i just want to spit.
sorry you fell into the pit of debt...many of us have to go there before we priorize and live closer to our means. glad to hear you have family that will help out. charity does begin at home. keep on keepin' on. you are great. your car is great and the 6gc family luvs you. 10^6 hugs for Amy --------------------  |

axel, here tow truck drivers can pretty much do whatever the hell they want, i even asked a lawyer about it..
considering the bank owns the car at the moment, i doubt the bank is going to sue the tow truck driver they paid to take the car from amy for new tires true story: at my school (towson university in baltimore maryland) parking is such a pain that we have one tow truck company that makes bank for towing, well one day i watched them try to tow an ion, first they tried to jimmy the lock, and the alarm went off, then they tried like 3 more jimmys with the alarm on, finally got the door open, took the parking break off, got the alarm off, and towed it away.. i asked my law professor if it was legal and he said pretty much in short yes.. i couldnt believe it, tow truck drivers can BREAK IN to your car to tow it? thats freaking ridiculous |
