And that's all she wrote....

Well, USAA called me today.  Pony is a loss.  She was a good car, fun and faithful and she died protecting me.

I'll miss you, but God we have fun.

I'm sorry. I know how much you love that car.

Thank you. It's hard, but it could have been so much worse.

I'm sorry about Pony, but woohoo USAA customer service! I've been nothing but happy with them. I'm glad they got back to you so quickly.

USAA rocks my socks.

USAA

I once had USAA for the autos and they were very good, for cars.

The problem was for the homeowers ins. When we had the house fire my biggest mistake was making a claim. When they got done with us, we learned the error of our ways. They made our life hell for our foolishness. Once, I even made the mistake of asking a question about coverage and was told that I was supposed to know the answer.

They fought us tooth and nail. Never returned any calls. Called my wife a liar. I only got to the adjuster, if she was at her desk and if she was in the mood to answer the phone. Then I would find out that some paperwork had been on her desk for a week or more and it was "wrong". I was just supposed to know what to do and it wasn't her job to call me and let me know. I had to call Home Office twice just to get some basic info.

I talked to many over the years and they had only good things to say about auto but never found any who could say anything good about the home owners side.

To me, USAA will always be the bunch that called my wife a liar and for what they put us through 21 years ago. No second chance.

Shall we compose poetry to honor Pony's bravery? I know what it's like to lose a beloved car, and I'm glad you're okay. Hope everything continues to resolve smoothly.

A car is oft-times more than just a pile of parts.

I can think of no greater honour than to lay down your life in the protection of a loved one.

I remember when Pony followed you home. (The SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE still echoes up here.) She had a good life with you.

It sucks, yes, but ultimately John still has his prize - you.

(Go get a Jeep! Jeeps are fun! Jeeps are neat! And if you fold it down right, three complete treadles can fit on the back seat!)

Sorry about the car, but I'm glad you're safe.

It still amazes me that a car can be wrecked and its occupants emerge
mostly unharmed. Glad this was the case for you. I'd say your car
served you quite honorably.

in case you didn't see the suggestion on FB

find out what yard they took Pony too, then go get the hood ornament as a keepsake/icon/memento....

{is sad} I'm glad that you are okay though.
