Sorry to hear about the wreck, glad to see everyone was safe and the truck did its job. From the extent of the damage its iffy every body panel is bent. When I wrecked my 01 F-250 SC SB Lariat 113K it was totaled due to severe front end damage. My truck was appraised at 20K, my insurance allowed 75% of the value before totalling it, ended up getting payed out 22K and no increased rates. Hopefully it can be fixed because it is getting very hard to find a replacement 7.3.

Hit a bridge at a side angle going 65-70 after losing control. The frame and everything was shifted 11 inches. I just took my losses, I only paid 16500 for it with 94K.

It was a perfect farm truck being a SC SB, works great in tight places with a trailer compaired to my CC. The front section of frame could be replaced easily but the entire truck was out of line bad. Now his truck would be a great buy back to fix if it is totalled, I am just glad everyone was okay.

I'm gonna guess total because of the crushed cab. Usually when you get a compromised door post like that, it means a whole new cab, which is too costly. Good luck either way. That's a whole lot of dinged up body panels too.

doubtful they will total your truck with only cosmetic damage. If the frame was bent....I'd say definitely. Maybe totaling it would be a BAD thing anyways!

been there done that about 2 months ago. glad to hear no one was hurt. btw a cab off of another truck (read gasser) usually runs $3500-4500. i've been pricing them lately as i'm in the middle of rebuilding mine. oh yeah, that price is with all the interior, no dash, no stereo. but the interior is not that hard to replace.
