well, it was fun while it lasted...

You shouldn't need GAP. I think it is totaled as well. Hope everyone is OK. Who woulda thunk a Windstar was that stout

 

Probably 65. Rural roads here pretty much all of them the speed limit is 65,.

 

yep they will totaled it due to air bag went off AND firewall damage.. might as well give that taco the last kiss..

 

I used to be an insurance adjuster, it's not necessarily the air bag that would throw it over into a total loss, but the facto the frame is bent. Op said there is a 3" difference between cab and box at either side.

If this were a 2012, 2013 or 2014 it would be fixed all day long, and likely get a new frame on top of that.

 

well, I got the truck for 19, hopefully I get close to that back out of it if they do total it.

 

Wow that sucks. Get a newer truck and call it a day. Glad nobody was hurt.

 

if you read what the OP said the FIREWALL damage.. most body shop wont touch that.. so it total.. yeah the ins company loves to save the money by fixing it.. I would fight tooth to tooth with ins comes to this kind of problem.

 

Honestly I hope they total it, because I'll always know that something isn't 'just right' even if it's fine. It'll never be the same.

 

Damn what is this like 6 in a month. Glad you're ok op.

 

Also surprised the curtain airbag didn't deploy. With the steering wheel deploying and on drivers side you would think it would have

 

Speaking from a recent mishap, Insurance just repaired the wifes car that had 150k miles and damage was 3/4 of the value and they repaired it. Something about the current economy of vehicles and new car sales they said they don't total much anymore unless there is serious structure damage. That was coming from a Geico representative.

 

I feel ya man. I just did this 2 weeks ago. F'ing sad. They totaled it. Just make sure to take any aftermarket parts off and replace them with stock if you want to reuse or sell.

 

They totaled my lancer with 11k damage, it was a 14 model with 600 miles on it, literally 1 week off the lot

 

I just don't know how they are going to deal with the custom parts like the lift, the 285/75 tires, rims, etc if they decide to repair it

 

No way they will repair that
