8 of 10 Thou shall not steal . . . .

But how do you say DJ stole from the insurance company?

He took his car in good faith to the adjuster and they calculated the cost and sent him a check, he then took it on himself to repair certain damage himself.....

Now I am also against stealing either way, but in this case the only one to blame would be the adjuster for giving out a higher than needed quote to fix his car.

In my case it was only 1 time.

About 2 feet until the truck backing up in front of me realized it.

Got air horns now....

I did not cry. I just wished the truck in front of me would stop backing up once my windshield broke.

2 days later I drove the boxster-wreck to a Saturday tech session at my local dealer. Was not able to open the front trunk.

Right in the dealer's parking lot steps away from the tech session, I got baby jesus aka local Boxster owner Larry to jump up and down on the hood while I pulled up on the release lever.

Larry was the lightest person at the tech session. He sort of looks like a cross. Got the trunk opened.

That was almost 3 years ago.

I was entitled to X to repair the car. Some of that money went back to me because I did not have the body shop replace the amber headlights, because I wanted clear or lits instead.

Borrowed Henry's old ambers for a few months (he had put in lits). Months later I found 996 clears on ebay for about 1/3rd what I was paid to replace the ambers.
