I really appreciate those that shared what they have done to resolve the issue and what it cost them. In talking to the Toyota Dealership this morning, the OEM parts I find for $6xx are NOT just swappable. Need to be painted, and need to have a number of things moved from the existing tailgate to the new one. So all of that being said it does look like ~$1-3k will be the price as other suggested depending on how much of the work I want to do post painting.

OP is in the insurance industry, has high deductibles, which means these sorts of things are self-insured. In the not so long run saving me lots of money. Insurance and claims like this are NOT free - the house always wins. OP is quite the opposite of clueless. I hope that the utility truck company or their carrier will pay up but I don’t count on that.

but yes i concur with what jlee said , hopefully you find one thats the same color also make sure it has the key to lock , if it doesnt you can get a locksmith shop to make the cylinder fit your key

OP had his own narrative he wanted to hear. When he didn't hear it he determined snarky...with 10 posts.
