Thank you. My Lariat Maverick was $39,500. The 2024 F-150 I now have was $40,500. To me, that’s not enough of a difference to justify getting another one even though I loved it.

I loved both my mavericks but die the price point of the lariat I just couldn’t justify buying another one.

I moved on to a new F-150. Got a great deal so I couldn’t say no.

It was definitely a pain in the rear end, especially when it was due to someone else not paying attention. I have moved on to an F-150 and have been checking out dashcams.

Insurance has already taken possession. Sad days

Indeed. Maybe i'm out of touch but that price seems high.

Surprisingly, they only had 1 as a replacement on the estimate. $950

It's looking like it will be totaled so that would be up to the insurance folks :ROFLMAO:

I'm thinking they will total it, but i guess it depends on what the acv and scrap value is. I hope you're right though.

I more or less told the adjuster that i preferred that they total it at this point. He said they're working to find the scrap value for it to add that in. I also assume that they would have to consider the diminished value amount as well.

Repair estimate is up to $27,900 :oops:

Wow. These first estimates are way off aren’t they? I keep reading about insurance companies using scrap value to help determine a total. Anyone know anything about that?

Yeah, the shop guy just laughed about how low the estimate was

Exactly. That along with the paint/clearcoat never looking the same again bugs me. That’s my work so I notice any paint issues unfortunately

Thank you. Honestly, i hope it's totaled. As much as i love it i don't think i want it back after having this much work done.

Another fun update. The initial estimate of $16,500 went to over $17,000 within a couple hours of the adjuster calling me. I went to the shop this morning to grab a few things i had forgotten in the truck and the shop owner laughed and said the adjuster was way short on his first estimate. He...

I saw the 75% threshold as well, but isn’t that just the point where the law states that it must be totaled? Meaning, the insurance company could still decide to total it below the 75%? Anyway, the adjuster that actually looked at my vehicle said that it hadn’t been pulled apart yet and he...

I haven't heard from the insurance company yet, i just noticed that the repair estimate was on the website. Don't know if that necessarily means that it will for sure be fixed or not.

Somehow the shop is saying "only" $16,500 to repair.

The Santa Cruz is a big no 🤮. Haha
