Well, Yes and no, it was a win win, but I was still the bad guy as the insurance company information didn't get relayed to my daughter and myself until a couple hours later when my wife got home from work. So, I was the big time heal for a good part of yesterday afternoon. 

I actually don't have to consider my insurance company evil. We use Liberty Mutual for the house, three daily drivers and two 1970 Datsun Roadsters, and have had no problems with them, at all. They even insure my Datsuns the same way Haggerty or Grundy would with less limitations for about the same money. (Your experience may differ! lol)

Sounds like the evil insurance company got to be the bad guy and not you, 
so its a win all around.  :-)
