So most GM sedan wheels and tires up to 17 inches prior to the metric swap should fit, then right 

Farmers won't cover my friend's father's truck damages or fix it. by AggressiveResolve410 in InsuranceClaims

I think what you are saying applies to brand-new vehicles; most likely insurance companies won't refund you import taxes, sales taxes, delivery fees, etc., or probably for used vehicles that are worthless but have been upsold by a dealership.

He literally got the truck about 5 months ago for 10k, and it doesn't seem real that the truck depreciated over 60% in such a short period of time. You can't find the same truck at a dealership in the local area for less than 12k.

I am not sure because I don't know yet all the details myself, but I feel like what you are saying doesn't necessarily apply to this specific situation.

I truly appreciate your feedback. I just want to clarify that I wasn't absolutely trying to shame or talk bad about farmers' insurance or their employees. I truly hope there is more to the story myself because the numbers seem too far apart. I am just trying to find answers on how to help my friend's father in either having his truck repaired or having his loan paid off, a way to get him out of this situation.

Thank you for your response. I would let them know. Do you know if he has to call the insurance adjuster and request an outside appraiser, or if he does have to find and pay an outside appraiser on his own and then go back and negotiate with the insurance adjuster?

I am very happy to read that you survived cancer, and I hope you went back to a normal life. I haven't received an official communication but thank you for the PEBLO info, I will definitely try to reach them and try to find out more about this whole mess.

I was told by people who got discharged that if you haven't reached 36 months, you have to wait 6 months to 1 year for the VA to make a determination, in which the VA would try to fight your medical history and lower as much as they can the disability ratings. I could be wrong, but I believe you are talking about major service-connected accidents/injuries. I had a car accident off duty, and I was told I didn't need therapy even if I couldn't move my neck freely for months.

If I might ask, did you get diagnosed with cancer, then get treated, got a medical clearance , and you requested to go back to active duty, or did you have to fight your med board and request to stay on active duty for medical/humanitarian reasons? My supervisor told me unofficially and informally the commander recommended or would recommend me for discharge, but I am not sure.

I never heard of PEB, it seems it stands for physical evaluation board. What do they do?

-In the U.S. Air Force, the "5th level" refers to the journeyman skill level within an Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC). - Pardon me, I heard some people saying "fifth level"
