Awaiting an Answer from the Insurance Company

I was rear ended on the interstate. Waiting on the decision from Allstate on my 2017 TRD Sport. Frame is bent and the bed is buckled. Sad day.

 

Do you have full coverage? If so, you'll be just fine. Right after I graduated from college, I spent a year as a claims adjuster before I realized your job should not destroy your soul and make you a shell of a person. Anyway, I cannot claim to be an expert, but I can say your car is unlikely to be totaled if there is no front end damage. Air bags getting set off or roof damage is a dead giveaway. Do your research and take it to a shop that you trust to have the work done. If the truck doesn't drive right, all you have to do is bring it back to the shop. Theyll call the insurance company and get the money to fix and re-fix it as many times as necessary. Allstate is also one of the best in terms of customer service so you made a good choice there. Finally, be nice to your adjuster, it pays to do so and they are really just trying to help most of the time. Sucky situation to be in but at least no one was injured. It could have been a lot worse, right? Anyway, good luck and let us know how it turns out.

 

Thanks. I appreciate that.

 

Bummer. When I saw the thumbnail, I thought it was about a flatbed build. Hope you get taken care of and we see a new truck on here soon.

 

Love the vehicle description.

Hahahah

 

Looks like it's not just you getting reared on the interstate

 

Man that's brutal it appears that the bedcorner is touching the cab damn.

 

That’ll buff out.

 

They will fix the truck.

 

Maybe just a tad

Holy Sh*t...hope you are ok.

 

that's totaled. where's the bed?

 

With no damage to the cab I can see them replacing the frame instead of being totaled.

 

Yikes. I just hope you’re ok, that looks like some nasty whiplash took place there. The truck can be fixed/replaced.

 

My truck just got toaled and it looked like this...

 

Water damage?

 

No, just bent frame in a few spots.

 

Driving backwards and being rear ended, could it be called a head on collision?
