    Seriously?!?! That actually works?? Damn, next time I got to Toyota, I'm just going to tell them what I want to pay. All this time, I didn't realize that was an option!

    You can't go to an independent shop and get a quote, it has to be their labor rates?? I'd do some research, that sounds like the insurance company is doing something really shady...

    Fuck no. Amica wanted to send my truck to a shitty local shop, I insisted it went to a Toyota body shop, and my truck was 7 years old at the time. Yours is brand new, force them to take it to Toyota

    Understood, but I can't see a dealership agreeing to $40 /hr as a labor rate. And, I believe, you have the right to choose your repair shop, they can't force you to go to their place just because they've negotiated the rates with someone.

    I dont understand how they can say what they will pay either but several shops have confirmed this when I spoke with them on the phone. I also found out that I am better off picking a shop giving them the truck so they can deal with the appraiser and get a better pay out.

    George's Autobody in Woburn is the second best in the state. My father has known the owner since his childhood. Now my truck was totaled now look at it that was some intense body damage some structural.
