Hi all. I know I don't post much, but I've been here a while and read often. On Friday, traffic on the highway came to an quick stop at a construction zone. I stopped, but the vehicle in back of me didn't and hit me from the rear, which sent my car into the car in front of me. The guy who hit me's insurance has accepted responsibility and they're going to come out to look at my vehicle and take care of the collision part of the claim. I have a couple questions if anyone is able to assist.
1) I've heard insurance companies don't like to offer anything near what the car is actually worth. Is there anything I can do if I'm not satisfied with the offer they make on the car? I'm going to guess it's totaled, but I could be wrong.
2) I saw a nice Certified Used red 2010 Corolla S at the local dealership I may look at. It has 14,000 miles and they're asking $17,500. Does anyone know of any reason why I should stay away from the 2009/2010 model?
Thanks everyone!
