Totaled?
I sure hope they don't try and fix it, it'll just never be the same again.
Hit by a Dodge Ram on the free way.
So far I see,
Both rear fenders
Hatch
Rear Facia
Tails lights
License pLate surround and lights
Top roll bar is tweaked down at Hatch hinges
Rear storage compartments are smashed
Truck floor is buckled about 6 inches behind hump between seats and trunk
Right front fender misaliged
Both door cracked where fenders hit
Targa Top misaligned

8500 is all they wrote? maybe they stoped when the program hit the total loss threshold. shooting from the hip, I would have wrote at least 15k
