    If they grabbed it up with that forklift like that and transported it, all kinds of things underneath are going to be dented, bent or broken. There is no way that they transported it like that, if they have even the slightest thought that, it's not totaled.
    Show that picture to your insurance agent, it will be totaled.

    100% of your experiences.

    That’s like saying Johnnie Walker is garbage...but you’ve only ever had red label.

    Indeed. If it were mine, I'd almost be hoping for a total at this point.

    My vehicle was moved to COPART and honestly most of the vehicles looks like they were in horrible shape, they threw my front grill onto my windshield and it has been trashed with forklifts and it drives me insane, I don’t even know what to do from here and I can assure you I do not want this truck back

    I really think you'll be okay because I think they will total it. Hang in there, I've been in this same position twice.

    Call your insurance agent and file those grievances.

    A few.
    If a vehicle isnt drivable, could it even be considered as fixable and not a total loss?

    That doesn’t make sense. If you get 2 flat tires in the crash, is your vehicle totaled?

    It's totaled. Your truck wouldn't be in Copart yard if it wasn't, instead it'd be in a bodyshop of your choice. Your adjusted is working out some details before he will give you an official "total" verdict.

    If you sustained enough damage in a wreck to blow 2 tires off the rims, there is a good chance its totaled.

    This was 18k to fix. They didn’t total it.

    No, not even close. Busted radiator; not drivable. Fender into tire; not drivable. Broken windshield; not drivable.
