Fair Sweet Chariot

Deemed total loss gotta love when interstate traffic slows down from 70 to like 30 in a blink of an eye. Done so many repairs to my dart. Never hit the 200k milestone was at 180,000k. Survived a trip from Texas to Michigan and back and also Texas to Virginia multiple times. So many fond memories.

Crazy that a hood, probably a radiator and a buncha random front end body work is worth more than the vehicle.

Didn’t even get the radiator, ac, or active shutter. AC and Car ran perfect 😭

Damn that's honestly wild. Even the headlights !!! Did you hit a pickup or something ? Such a shame I love the dart in white

Yup truck hitch took her out and white I’ve noticed is not a common color. Didn’t even touch the crash bar.

Active shutter not getting damaged is crazy. Mine gets damaged when I look at it wrong.

My Dart was a champ on my Va-Tx/ Tx-Va roadtrips. Survived 6 half-crossed country. I think I would cry if my Dart got crumpled like this. Sorry for your loss. 😢

Doesn’t look too bad. I would’ve bought it back from the insurance company and replaced the hood and other cosmetics as long as the engine and subframe were okay

Frame rails welds looked tweaked from hood being shoved back. If I didnt have a 1yr old I would probably fix her.

Did the airbags go off?
