Rob, I give you credit for being an understandable business owner. A lot of people would react emotionally to these sort of incidents. But you always end up understanding its just part of the business and you move on from it. I will say, it's a lot easier to deal with when you run your business on the up and up and have insurance to cover you ass, but still, you handle these incidents properly like an adult and I respect you for that. I also appreciate you sharing it with your audience instead of hiding from it. These experiences can be a learning process for everyone, so sharing it is rather helpful.
Rob should learn what happened to Royalty Exotics, when they made huge drop offs on their rental prices...alot of their cars started to get recked. You should be always carefull to rent an exotic supercar to people that thinks: "The collant blow off", after crashing the car.
@@CylinderHeadE60 "Royalty Exotics, how can I help you?"............"Dude...the car is leaking some black collant. Mybe is overheating. Also the front wheel fell off the car."
I VERY Highly doubt either of you work in collision or with cars. This car is far from totalled, how would it be totalled? Do you even know what totaled means??? The repairs here do not NEARLY exceed the cost of the car, it is absolute WORST case 30k which still isnt totalled and theres no fucking way even if frame took a hit that its 30k. Learn about something before speaking about it. It's far less than it looks
@@ShishirGaire you can straighten frames. Especially up front. Definitely alot of cosmetic work needs done, but as far as actual damage, it's just the front crashbar, and new mounts to majority of what's up front. New rims all around, and new plastics. Easily only $25k. But most of that is in labor
@@ShishirGaire @Don. you all are wrong... It doesn't have frame, no one makes car on frames anymore, dmg part is sled and while fixable you never fix it by streaching, bending it in place etc as it lost all property and in next crash it would bend like paper, you need to cut it and put new one in. From that video it looks like it's all fixable and not totalled by any means.
Oh goodness!! Rob the Ferret’s video hit over 200k!!! I guess that’s the peak... let’s bottom back down to low 20k until the next decade! Congrats Rob, you’ve made it... again.
Most modern cars have passenger detection, if no one is sitting in that seat during a collision, the airbag won't go off. Thought that was common knowledge these days.
@@curtisj2165 Kinda confuses me how someone who's around cars all day doesn't know about the passenger detection sensor. Both my Toyotas have a dash light that indicates if the airbags are set or not, and I presume that every modern car will have a similar indicator.
Hey pompous ass mike making common knowledge comments, do you also understand that the seat can be damage? Not working? Faulty? Did that ever cross your mind before judging everybody as having no “common knowledge” ???
Rapido20 pretty sure it would be illegal to drive and he couldn’t legally rent it out and making it stupid easy for a lawsuit against him, but yes... continue your comment
The reason the other airbag didn’t pop is because the seat passenger seat was empty, Most new cars can detect if someone is sitting in the seat and if it’s unoccupied it won’t blow, this is to bring down the cost of repair potentially per-venting a car being Totalled.
Me: A collision repair expert, dreading the countless hours of hard, back breaking work I'm gonna spend fixing the car The customer who knows nothing about collision repair: 4:56
I have the upmost respect for you. You have a family, building a new home, running a business in the worst possible time in recent history, someone demolished part of your inventory. You're the right man for the job no doubt. They used to call it guts. Now they call it... something else.
I see lots of these in Copart auto auction. The damage to the front fenders which are the inner fender are glued in with the airbags you’re likely looking at a total.
@@Alias_g. the car can definitely be repaired but I actually think that might be total damage. Either way I don't think that it was coming back and I would love to hang it up
You know what I've learned from Rob... cars are amazing, but being in the car business is excruciating. Thanks for going through the pain for us, and sharing the ride.
I worked with rental vehicles for 10 years and people will do whatever they can to damage the cars. There is zero respect for rental vehicles by many customers.
The problem with taking personal responsibility these days is that you're not gaining anything. I learned it the hard way, I took responsibility for mistakes at work, I'm the idiot who always screws up. My colleagues just go "*shrug* No idea how that happened. Wasn't me." even though I knew it was their mistake, so they never go into hot water. It's encouraged to lie in a whole lot of places. Which is a shame.
You telling that ford gt story makes me so sad everytime. That was such a beautiful car. The ford gts just look like amazing cars to own. The cars gorgeous. The car is reliable and it’s cheap to maintain compared to other exotics. If i could afford one I’d daily drive it lol.
I know for late-model GM cars (basically within the last 10-15yrs) the front passenger seat (and some models with rear seating) has a weight sensor (I believe the threshold is about 40lbs) so if 'no' weight is detected the airbag won't arm and subsequently won't fire in a frontal impact.
I drove a C7 Z06 (I mainly drive a WRX and a truck) and wanted to push the engine a little bit, I made a quick right turn and the car almost lost control due to sheer torque. I then was on a highway and fully accelerated and the wheels broke free when already doing 70mph. The amount of sheer power the Z06 has is scary.
All in the game. Similar to me as a chef when I send out what I think is a great dish and a customer rips it to pieces and refuses to pay for it. Cant take it personally, is what it is.
For the airbags, in some cars, the passenger airbag won't pop up if it does not detect a minimum of weight on the passenger seat. The car would need a whole front end and new front end cooling system. I noticed the right front wheel is not straight too. My guess is a 30k$ damage minimum, the parts seems to be made of fiberglass so more extensive than metal or plastic
One thing I have learned with trying to estimate what it will cost for damage is that it will always cost more than you think. How many times can you count actually being surprised and under the amount you thought? This one will come close to totalling it out. Almost always stuff hidden you can't see.
There’s probably someone in the chat that already threw a quick parts estimate up but I do wholesale parts for Lexus and unless Chevy is REALLY generous with these replacement parts it could easily be over 20 in parts. Carbon front shell minus the bumper cover (can’t remember if it’s carbon or not) guessing 6-9k each fender, 8-15k for hood. Airbag 900-2k, control unit for airbag 800-1.5k, steering wheel maybe 3k/+. Headlamps I’m thinking 2-3k each, and that’s just the biggest most obvious items before you get into the little things on the front end. And of course the insurance company will be pushing for used parts so these guesses are assuming they get everything new and not additionally discounted for price matching.
Early 2000s they started adding passenger sensors in seat to reduce airbags going off during impacts. It has nothing to do with the impact but if there's someone heavy enough to activate the airbag. The guy was driving alone is all that says.
Passenger airbag probably didn't blow because no one was sitting in the passenger seat when the wreck happened. My Veloster N has a weight sensor for the passenger seat. It turns the airbag off if no one is sitting in the seat. My N is far from a Z06, but that could be the reason.
AM G first of all, give it a few years and most exotic cars will come with dash cams build in. And a exterior looking dash cam with no sound, i don’t see the issue with that its like the tracker with a video feed
I once rented a Boxster from an exotic rental place in Vegas. Got a call the day before saying the previous renter crashed it. I said just put me into any stick shift convertible. Got a free upgrade to a 911.
Isn't Rob able to charge the customer for the lost rental income, i.e. loss of use? If so, and it's a car that's typically hired a few days per month, collecting loss-of-use income each day it's sidelined at the repair shop may make it a big earner. Especially nowadays.
Rob The passenger side airbag did not deploy because no one was sitting there, when I take passengers in my Trailblazer it will automatically sense when there is a passenger and arm the air bag, and disarm when they get out, just my thoughts, hope it don't cost too much to fix
It also helps to 'drive like that' with that level car. You could be all over the place with a 'regular' fast car. Switch up to something at this level or above, with grippy, two-foot wide tires that grip like super-magnets, until suddenly they DON'T... Oook.
Nah. As someone that does this for a living, if you go through the insurance company, that’s a total loss. That Left rail will need heavy repairs or replacements. Once the airbag gets deployed, you gotta replace a bunch of parts. It took the hit really good nonetheless
Rob there are sensors in the seats that determine weight when someone is sitting there . Like with a Benz it will come up passenger side airbag off cause I’m driving alone
Passenger airbag won't blow if there isn't a passenger of a certain weight. It's to save on repair costs, as well as so you can mount a baby seat in the passenger side.
I think it's probably going to be totaled just with the damage to the front supports. If you want another one I just happen to know where there is one. I just traded mine in to a dealership in San Antonio TX. It's a one owner 2017 black coupe z06 3lz with carbon ceramic brakes and z07 ground affect package with about 18,500 miles on it. I think the dealership is asking about 65k for it. If your interested it's located over at GUNN Chevrolet again in San Antonio TX

Insurance money pays more than a rental
@@88zpeedy plus whatever he makes on this video
passenger air bag doesnt usually blow unless you have a passanger. They usually have a weight sensor in the seat
AOS Airbag Occupant Suppression. We call it Ass On Seat at the GM plant where I work.
Michael Pyatt Toyota calls it OCS Occupant Classification System
Thanks. I was wondering if that could be the case.
I thought the same thing as well.
I'm amazed that car companies will risk someone's life and one hell of a lawsuit if a sensor fails.

How many times can you count actually being surprised and under the amount you thought? This one will come close to totalling it out. Almost always stuff hidden you can't see.
Gorilla tape and some wax, you’d never know it was damaged.
There’s probably someone in the chat that already threw a quick parts estimate up but I do wholesale parts for Lexus and unless Chevy is REALLY generous with these replacement parts it could easily be over 20 in parts. Carbon front shell minus the bumper cover (can’t remember if it’s carbon or not) guessing 6-9k each fender, 8-15k for hood. Airbag 900-2k, control unit for airbag 800-1.5k, steering wheel maybe 3k/+. Headlamps I’m thinking 2-3k each, and that’s just the biggest most obvious items before you get into the little things on the front end. And of course the insurance company will be pushing for used parts so these guesses are assuming they get everything new and not additionally discounted for price matching.
Rob, any updates on the $200 guy?
Yeah he's at home thinking "a sucker born every minute..."
He totally refunded all the money plus interest once he learned Rob knows his parents first names.
@@vadim7590 Considering his dad's name is Vlad, Not a bad move.
I couldn’t stop laughing when it started. Really did not expect that.
I'd think with you being so into cars, your damage assessment would be more like a car guy and less like my grandmother. Anybody else pick up on that?
Hey, on the positive side Rob, at least you are getting rentals right now.
Rob: it’s almost time to sell the C7
Customer: Not on my watch
Early 2000s they started adding passenger sensors in seat to reduce airbags going off during impacts. It has nothing to do with the impact but if there's someone heavy enough to activate the airbag. The guy was driving alone is all that says.
Me: “I don’t drive like that”
*drives like that*
Passenger airbag probably didn't blow because no one was sitting in the passenger seat when the wreck happened. My Veloster N has a weight sensor for the passenger seat. It turns the airbag off if no one is sitting in the seat. My N is far from a Z06, but that could be the reason.
plot twist: it’s the same guy that scammed him came and smashed his corvette lol
What do you love/hate more? The fact that your vehicle is totalled or confronting the guy and saying " You See I Told You So" !!!!
Is there a particular reason why you don’t install dash cameras in your cars?
privacy shits
AM G first of all, give it a few years and most exotic cars will come with dash cams build in. And a exterior looking dash cam with no sound, i don’t see the issue with that its like the tracker with a video feed
@M
No but your monthly premium is lowered substantially if you install cameras because it lowers the liabilities
I once rented a Boxster from an exotic rental place in Vegas. Got a call the day before saying the previous renter crashed it. I said just put me into any stick shift convertible. Got a free upgrade to a 911.
on today's episode, a customer spilled a mustard and ketchup hot dog from Mr. spaghetti's mobile vending cart!
What
@@sugasherm *inside joke
@@Martin_Speed **I know the joke this guy's just dumb as hell
@@sugasherm your mom thought it was funny
"3 hours later... He drove like that"😂😂😂
That's totaled all day long
In today's video Mr. Spaghetti shows us his used meatballs in an optimistic sauce.
What a business model!😜😜🤪🤪🤯🤯🤯
Isn't Rob able to charge the customer for the lost rental income, i.e. loss of use? If so, and it's a car that's typically hired a few days per month, collecting loss-of-use income each day it's sidelined at the repair shop may make it a big earner. Especially nowadays.
Insurance?
he programs the cars to crash on purpose to set ppl up to pay him :)
Rob The passenger side airbag did not deploy because no one was sitting there, when I take passengers in my Trailblazer it will automatically sense when there is a passenger and arm the air bag, and disarm when they get out, just my thoughts, hope it don't cost too much to fix
$100k at the time “was” a lot of money.. “WAS” Let that marinate for for sec
Eric Jr For him
Rob - What happened?
Customer -Well the Front Fell off...
When did he start looking like a young Mario
I like your attitude about it. Very positive
Here’s the thing, people who “drive like that” are at least used to it.
It also helps to 'drive like that' with that level car. You could be all over the place with a 'regular' fast car. Switch up to something at this level or above, with grippy, two-foot wide tires that grip like super-magnets, until suddenly they DON'T... Oook.
Damn. I wish I was as calm and laid back as u are Rob. I wouldn't need this damn Prozac anymore lol
It seems all of these dumb spaghetti comments just never end
just like the videos of his crashed cars
That joke died in like 2008 but people still use it as if it’s funny 🤣🤣
I think you should probably open a crash car derby and you can call it Rob's superspeeders collision dreamworks auto lol
I find it amazing that insurers cover high performance rental cars anymore based on the sample size of Rob's business.
Rob I gotta say, you have probably one of the best intro on RUclips 👍
All I can say is that I'm really glad it wasn't the C8. My heart sank when I read this because I love the C8
In today’s episode of Supercookers, Chef Ferretti shows us an example of Pasta Corvetti Americano All Dente.
Nah. As someone that does this for a living, if you go through the insurance company, that’s a total loss. That Left rail will need heavy repairs or replacements. Once the airbag gets deployed, you gotta replace a bunch of parts. It took the hit really good nonetheless
most people would cry....another day in the office for Rob lol.
The passenger airbag isn't active unless there is enough weight in the passenger seat. The yellow light on the dash tells you its status.
Rob there are sensors in the seats that determine weight when someone is sitting there . Like with a Benz it will come up passenger side airbag off cause I’m driving alone
Passenger airbag won't blow if there isn't a passenger of a certain weight. It's to save on repair costs, as well as so you can mount a baby seat in the passenger side.
Part of the business. Always the 1s that say "I don't drive like that".
SamCrac would have that all replaced in a few days... ready to paint. Lots of affordable dismantle yard parts are available.
Airbag in the passanger seat didnt go off cause it probably has a weight sensor. Since there wasnt weight in the passanger seat it didn’t activate
Earth to Rob - that frame rail is toast.
In my mind I see totalled!!! Props to you for seeing positive fix's!!
I think it's probably going to be totaled just with the damage to the front supports.
If you want another one I just happen to know where there is one. I just traded mine in to a dealership in San Antonio TX. It's a one owner 2017 black coupe z06 3lz with carbon ceramic brakes and z07 ground affect package with about 18,500 miles on it. I think the dealership is asking about 65k for it. If your interested it's located over at GUNN Chevrolet again in San Antonio TX
I took a dab every time he says bad and I died😵
Most of that will buff right out!!! If not dont worry my dad is a T.V. repair man he has lots of tools we'll fix it no worries!!!
Works out perfect, hopefully they write it off and you get a payout as you were on about getting rid of this a few weeks ago 👌
