Maverick totaled in deer strike

[day004]

Did they declare it totaled? I would find that surprising.

Often times the Insurance company will total a vehicle that they don't expect to be able to get repaired in a reasonable amount of time. Given the parts situation ,I'd imagine many marginally damaged cars are being totaled so the customer isn't pissed about it taking a year to fix

I looked on FB at the original posters update. It WAS totaled due to the lack of parts lists, pricing and available people who knew how to evaluate it. It will be sold at Copart Auction of Brighton Colorado starting at $10k.

Because I don't know, say the owner paid a market adjustment. Would insurance only cover the msrp? Owner has to make up difference.

Take your invoice to your insurance agent and have him/her price your coverage for that amount. 30% dealer add on lives on and on. Also a lot can be said FOR XL or XLT base at MSRP being considered "a throw away".

From a group I'm in --

We got an XLT Lux 4K 10/26, (someone's unwanted order). Drove 3 1/2 hours one way to get it, had the worst dealer experience in Beatrice, NE. Took it on its first long haul yesterday and it was great! Great mpg, great ride, easy in the NE/WY wind. Then it went deer hunting on the way home. Neither it or the little buck survived sadly. I, however, am fine. For a little truck it did an amazing job keeping me safe after hitting dead on. Beyond airbag burn and bruises, I'm fine. There were airbags everywhere, the emergency response features were solid, it was mashed but had enough in it to get me off the interstate (it was pitch black, windy as crap, and semis were out in full force.) It had a little less than 1300 miles on it, we will buy another.
