When all this happened I was at Heather's 30 minutes away from the closest hospital with a 45 minute plus response time for an ambulance to get to me.

True, but since I ended up in the hospital overnight Thanksgiving weekend because of shortness of breath and chest pain while splitting wood with a splitting maul there is some concern and urgency. It wasn't a heart attack according to my EKG and blood work but I'm scheduled to see a cardiologist next Friday because of family history on my dads side so I would kind of like to know what I'm in for.

PawPaw this was presplit Elm but some of the chunks are so big/heavy I have a hard time picking some of them up so it's not even a consideration for Heather to try picking them up. Looks like I get to spend money on a new toy for the new toy.
Still going to the Cardiologists next Friday though.....

If any of yal ever have to file a insurance claim with ACCC General insurance i wish you luck. What a bunch of idiots there!
So far they are not budging on the cost of the explorer, they offered $1000 and dad keep the vehicle. Dad went to his attorney today and he typed up a letter with his letter head and sent it to the insurance company certified. Maybe that will show them he is serious.
I took it yesterday to get a estimate and it came to 5400 dollars. I know dad doesnt expect to get that amount but they need to do better than a grand.

It should be able to be fixed because a replacement of like mileage and quality just doesn't exist out there
