Before accepting a quick 'no' from your provider, ask if your policy covers damage from external causes like tainted fuel—sometimes it’s included under comprehensive coverage. If you’re denied, push for specifics: have your adjuster show you where this situation is covered or excluded in your policy. Keep all your receipts and document the damage; this could be crucial for insurance claims or future legal action. Anyone else dealing with this?

Lauren Cooper+FollowWhy I-70 traffic dipped in Colorado this yearFewer cars on I-70 this past year meant less time stuck in mountain traffic for many Coloradans, and it wasn’t just the roadwork. A dry winter kept skiers away, and the Broncos’ winning streak had fans glued to their TVs instead of heading to the slopes. Even July, usually the busiest month, saw its lowest numbers in a decade. Still, leaf peeping and big storms brought some of the highest spikes and worst jams. With more construction and new traffic laws on the way, how do you think these changes will shape your mountain trips next year? #Transportation #Colorado #I7000Share
