The Moron in the white XJ was texting ran a red light , hit the civic which spun 90* into me when I was sitting stationary, The White XJ continued to slam into the white Mazda 3. I was the only one to drive away

honestly I think that they will be fixing it. I hit a deer at 45 and did about the same amount of damage. They fixed it and she is almost as good as new ( tweaked the sub frame and unibody on the drivers side.). I ended up with it costing the insurance company around $4k.

Around here, they still call them junk yards. Some will let you drive out to the vehicle of your choice and pull your own part but more often than not, you'd need a 4x4 (with no less ground clearance than a stock Cherokee. I've actually dragged my t-case crossmember a couple of times before I installed my lift) to get to it.

Dang, sounds like your junkyard is a mess lol. The one my dad and i go to lets you drive around inside, not much junk on the trails, but they get pretty narrow at points. Its bumpy and muddy but weve been through it in his 2wd dodge van, so not bad. Id worry too much about my tires if there was a bunch of metal junk to drive over. Also, in michigan pretty much everyone calls em junkyards, in B.C. canada where im at right now they call em pull/pick aparts. Its a regional difference i think
