The Progressive (insurance) person we are dealing with has had some concerns that the dollar amount of damage on our motorhome is going to put it in the "totaled" category. It is closing in on about $5k within that totaled number. I made a call to Winnebago to see how they were coming on the repair and if they have run into any unseen damage. The good news: the amount of unseen damage is minimal. The interesting news: they already have the repairs about 60% done! That last 40% is going to take longer because it is paint and the body work on the cab... yes, the hood and fenders that were back-ordered from Ford are in. Our Winnebago contact thinks they are going to be "pretty close" to that 2 week time estimate. The other news (not calling it bad): when I first scheduled this repair, I was told that the Winnebago Factory Customer Service would be open between Christmas and New Years... that has now changed. So, it looks like it will be after the first of the year before we can head back to the frozen northland to retrieve our repaired coach... unless they have the work done ahead of their schedule.
I was told they put a couple extra people on this job. Joan and I are both curious about how that roof replacement happens... it would have been interesting to see that process. Or, maybe it's like: you don't want to know how the sausage is made.
Progress.
The last look at the coach before they took it away...
