03 exploder totalled or repairable?

My 03 exploder EB got center punched in the drivers door taking out the entire door, front and rear door A pillars wrinkling the drivers floor pan, and the front fender jacked the hood. W/ 80K on the odo, do you think the insurance company can fix it or total it?

If a total what should I "salvage" from the vehicle? Also have an 03 xlt, does the xlt have the sub woofer wiring harness already installed for a stereo and rear subwoofer transplant?

Definitely totaled. They might repair fender damage, but once frame damage has occurred, its totaled.

looks like they are totalling it.

Does my wifes same year, 2003, XLT have the wiring already installed to handle my premium sound 6 disk in dash radio/head unit and the stock subwoofer in the back?

What else should I "swap" beteween my 03 EB and 03 XLT? adjuster said it was okay as long as it had the swapped componenets reinstalled with the XLT ones.

Do these have an anti gas siphon thingy in the filler spout or can I siphon out my just filled up fuel for the kids truck?
