Will this be a total loss

Ok tw, so I live in south louisiana and was affected by the recent flooding. This picture is one I took as we were leaving my house by boat. I haven't been able to get back yet to see the damage but judging from some pictures I have seen from my neighbors house the water came up another 2 ft. Do you think they will total my taco?

 

As long as water didn't enter the actual cab, I don't see a reason why it would be totaled.

 

If it's 2 ft higher than the photo, there's a very good chance of that. Sorry to see that, that's awful for all of you down there.

 

At its highest the water was 2 ft higher than in the pic

 

i'm so sorry you went through that. I can't even imagine looking back at your house and vehicles just sitting there as the water rises. I hope everyone is safe!

As for the truck, if it did go up another 2 feet, i'm pretty sure that's a total loss. Flood damage is no joke.

 

It very well might be totaled then.

 

Wishing you the best

 

Thanks man this has been the craziest shit I've ever seen in my life

 

There's a very very good chance the interior took water in from the looks of the picture, that's awful!!

 

Apreciated!

 

Agreed. I hope your insurance companies work quickly to restore your home and cars.

 

Thanks, yes everyone is safe and sound,happened early Sunday morning, just got back to my family today. Refugee status all week! Lol

 

Damn, sorry for your troubles. Just to spin a positive light, you got out and are safe.

keep us posted.

I saw it was declared a federal disaster, make sure to take advantage of what that provides you.

 

Glad you and your family are ok, stuff can be replaced, people can't.

 

No intake looks above water and cab as well

 

Sorry that you have to go through this. Wish you the best!

From uploaded picture I doubt that it will be totaled. I believe water has to enter moving parts-engine, trans etc.

 

As far as looking back at every thing you own go under water, that's the most helpless feeling I have ever had. Water was not supposed to come up in my area for another 24hrs, I had a bag packed and was gonna leave that morning, I was about 3 hrs too late

 

Ouch, that sucks.

 

So sorry man. It's all just stuff. Glad to hear that you and the family made it out OK.

As a rule of thumb, if it gets up to the dashboard it's usually done.

 

Your 100% right it's all stuff and can be replaced, family and friends is what matters
