Yep, someone hit our BRAND NEW car - UGH! I had the kids and we were coming home from visiting a friend for lunch. We were only a couple miles from home, and we stopped at a red light to make a left hand turn ... the car behind us forgot to stop.
As you can see, our car fared better than hers ... but still :( Initially, I thought it was just the bumper, but if you look closely, you can see that the right exhaust system is completely pushed back under the car.
The good news: no one was hurt, the person who hit us has insurance, the car is going to be completely repaired, and the kids are getting brand new, upgraded carseats (under California law insurance companies must replace car seats that are involved in any kind of accident).
The bad news: it's a royal pain in the rear - just lots of time, phone calls, etc., we have a lame rental car for a few weeks (but at least we have a rental ... there's a bright side to everything, I suppose) until the Acadia is repaired, we were hoping to have a large-ish car when James, Kate, Jacqueline, and Frederick come to visit at the end of the month, and it was seriously SO NEW!
Oh well ... maybe some pictures in a few weeks?
