With today's market value and the damage done.... I doubt it. The frame took a hard hit.

I will know in a few days after the insurance adjuster takes a look at it.

It looks like it faired pretty well. I wonder how fast they were traveling. Injuries?

I dont know all the details, as in speed or injuries.

But I did see a "beverage" glass sitting on the transmission hump. If this means anything.

the wheels looks pretty straight....I'll guarrantee I have fixed worse . It depends how fubared the powertrain is....but it is definitely fixable. the insurance will most likely total it... but it CAN be fixed. A good tradesman doing the job can make so you'd never know it.
