I had my first accident 2 weeks ago. Dark and rainy, and the lady in front of me slammed on her brakes. When the road's wet, slamming on my brakes practically does nothing. Luckily, all i needed was a new license plate bracket, and no other damage. However, she needed a new bumper, a new trunk lift, a new set of tail lights; all for a brand new 2013 Nissan Maxima...
I'd definitely get it fixed, I may not know a whole lot about my truck, because I'm sort of new and it's my first car, but I do know that the engine is priceless compared to anything else on the road

Thanks for the words again guys! Well two different insurance adjusters so far. One said hell get a junk yard door and fender...replace quarter panel, and get two new rims and tires....ha also said the steering leak was due to my power steering cap being loose , I'm sure it has nothing to do with my totally bent drag link.
Second adjuster said its totaled. Doesn't feel safe putting it back on the road. He said my truck is in average condition, due to a cracked dash pad, and a dent on the inside of my tailgate....most ridiculous sentence I've ever herd. Like ever. Said my truck is worth 500$ the way it sits. SO I'm calling my lawyer tomorrow and going for 10k and my truck. I was going along minding my own business, not fair to lose out on my truck. Not after all I've done. Can I go buy a superduty? Of course I can. But I'm not leaving this forum!! The obs guys are a rare dying breed. Not many understand! Thank you all and ill keep you all posted!! There will be one heck of a build thread!
