They found my ride!!!

[InletBchDweller]

I received a letter today from ATL police department stating that my car was found and is at a wrecker company. What kills me is that it is Friday and the car was found on Tuesday. The ATL police department can not make long distance calls and so they paid more to mail me a letter . While I am happy I am also frustrated b/c the wrecker company can not tell me anything about the car and the insunrance adjuster probable will not be able to go to see it until next Thursday!:angry:

Do any of you Atlantians know where Lithonia is??? Is it and what type of suburb is it? That is where it is located.

Who wants to take a bet if Mr. IBD's mexican blanket is still in the 'lade. What about my ipod?

congratulations...i guess...

 

[InletBchDweller]

yea, I wonder what damage has been done.......

congratulations...i guess...

Well this is one of those situations, where the truth might hurt.

We have recovered 2 stolen vehicles and as Hop said its not always a good thing.

Ours sat in the lot for 2 weeks before we found it was there. A friend that works for the police department said go about once a week and look because it takes forever for them to contact you.

For one, here, they take them to the stolen car lot, which is where the wreckers drop them off. And it is a very depressing sight to have to go and claim your car. Most are totally stripped and very few even still have tires. You have to pay the wrecker fee and the fee to the lot for keeping it while no one notified you, which is another reason we kept going out there to search ourselves.

I cried. Many others did too, it reminded me of the car morgue.

I hope you have the exception,but I thought you might want to be prepared for the worst especially since they took it to Atlanta.

Lithonia, is where Stone Mt. Ga the park is located, not really much there except that not really a large residential area.

This might be where their impound lot is.

It probably has new rims, hydrolics and check out the secret compartment in the trunk for goodies.....

Where was Mike Vick while this was going on? Glad ya found your ride. In California it's a wrecker scam, they just tow it and the police find it later and the wrecker company charge you some insane rate. Don't take any sheet from the wrecker company!!!!! Another reason to move to Sowal

oh, IBD, I hope it works out okay for you... sorry you have to deal with all this though... no doubt you'll take care of business in your usual efficient and graceful way!

 

[Allifunn]

you have to go all the way back to Atlanta to get it???
So sorry! Maybe it would have been better off not being found..if it is damaged will the insurance pay for it?

Hope it turns out ok for you, IBD.
