Not sure if you'll get in more trouble about the "light rear ending" part or the "cost" part.

My wife didn't seem to mind

The repairs were $25k and the payout was $42k and they totaled it?!

I wish my insurance company was so generous! Who is your insurance company?

That actually took me by surprise too.

USAA

A light rear end could save you a lot because the less you eat the less food you will need to buy.

Erie Insurance.
They Insure big stuff.
No monthly payments. Policy must be paid in full once a year.
They took exceptional care of me when lightening blew through my roof and did $27,000 in damage.
My premiums never went up.

It’s only available on new vehicles and expires at the five year mark.

I’ve got it as well and have Erie. My annual premiums went up $120 this year because Mrs. 710-oil-614 got a ticket for 86 in a 70 on 81s in VA heading to our property in Boone last summer….

My old Maverick was totaled for less damage then that.....the frame rail was barely tweaked though also....so totaled

Just get another Maverick....I bought a different truck and a year later here I am back with another Maverick .....dont fight the inevitable lol

USAA offers 20% over Actual Cash Value coverage on vehicles of any age - ACV can be negotiated if cost comes back to low with market or valued options. But not new replacement cost.... interesting?

A few months back there was a first poster on here saying that he had bought a Maverick with a Totaled Title and a bent rear frame for $12,000 at auction and asking how much would it cost to repair. Someone pointed out that the Maverick rear frame is made from Boron steel and would cost $25,000+ to repair.

Take the insurance money and cash it asap.

Sounds like there's going to be a lot of salvage title or title-washed Mavericks that were put on a frame puller and sent on their way.

Unfortunately,
Unsafe Maverick's are being sent on their way.
Once it's bent Boron steel cracks when it's straightened.

Some insurance companies own a recycle (scrap) yard or are involved with the recycle industry.
How much do you think they will make by selling the truck in pieces?

That's very unfortunate, and expensive. pretty sure every maverick I have seen get alight rear tap, ends up on the totaled list.

NOT if you accidently back into your son-in-laws 1980+ Ford truck. You can't even tell I hit his old truck. Anyone know where I can purchase a used tailgate???

That’s not how the boron steel sub frame works….

It will just crack. Very brittle.
