The truck was taken to a repair shop late Tuesday (35 miles away, because insurance). We’re hoping the estimate will be completed by the end of Monday. Once that is in, we’ll learn if the truck will be fixed or if insurance will deem it a total loss. If a total loss, we will need to start looking for a replacement truck asap.
We’re in a hotel until Monday, at which point we’ve hired a tow truck to pick up the trailer and tow it to a nearby campground that allows you to stay up to 30 days. That will reduce our out of pocket expenses significantly (hotel and eating out) and give us plenty of leeway, if the truck is to be repaired.
The biggest downside is that the weather looks like it’s going to fall apart for the next week or so. Back to the layer cake of blankets, movies, and lots of day trips to keep warm and dry. Someday we’ll laugh about all this inconvenience and hassle.
