Then you probably snapped the axle... Or at the very least, some of the pieces that hold it in...

I am guessing it's probably a write off...in the states...if the repairs are going to cost more...or about the going rate for the vehicle..they write it off.....and if they think the frame is involved..it's a gaurantee write off...I guess you will just have to see what the insurance people say

Man sorry to hear about the accident, but glad you're both alright.
And saying women drive worse than men is ridiculous! My husband is the worst driver I've ever known and because of his bad driving I have to pay higher insurance...so there! LOL

In Canada, or Alberta, at least, if the damage is 80% or more of the vehicle value, it's a write-off...

Yeah, so an update.. It's a write off. Some good news though, they are giving me $12,000 for it.. which is awesome considering I paid $8450 for it! I knew when I got it I was getting a killer deal, the gentlemen wanted it sold asap so he could go get an old duster that he'd wanted for a while. So my gain I suppose. So it's time to start looking for something, if I do infact get another blazer, I think I want it to be a ZR2.

Just my 2 cents but..... think of this..... If anf only if, in most opinions... If ALL women are bad drivers, please explain Danica Patrick!??!??!?? WTF! Shes awesome at driving.... and hott to boot...lol Insurance for men is so expensive because of a little thing called TESTOSTERONE..... therefore, I think manly men, men and women on sterroids, and anyone with a bad attitude should have to pay more for insurance...lol feminine males, and women should be cheaper... less likely to race, hot rod, burnout, cut donuts... etc.....lol
My mom for example could back a schoolbus through rush hour traffic in NYC if need be (shes good with a bus)... now put her in a regular sized vehicle and everyone look out.... she hits everything with her 2005 corolla...lol yea, cant drive a corolla worth a SH*T, but shes awesome with a schoolbus...hahahaha lmao

Dude hell yea get another blazer. Im sorry for your loss, i had the same thing happen to my astro van (my junk hauler) perfectly good car and someone had to ruin it. I was looking at trading in my 99 sonoma for a 2 dr ZR2 but desided not do because i need a truck.
Blazer also went down on price. You can probably get a close to new condition blazer for around 9k. then you have 3k to play around with.

That is HILARIOUS! I'm sitting here reading this with a rather girly gay male friend and we're both laughing, thinking of what a mess it would be if they went by your standards when quoting for insurance. They'd start printing people's sexual preferences on their drivers licenses! My friend thinks it's a wonderful idea incorporating how masculine-challenged he is so he can get a better insurance rate! (He's an awful driver, by the way)
I tend to think gay or straight, masculine or feminine, male or female, it doesn't say much about how you'll drive. I guess you can be an idiot either way, LOL! (I know he certainly is, if you don't beleive it you should see his "gay-farmer" impersonation!)
