isnt there like a 50% thing? if the cost of repair exceeds 50% they declare it a total loss?

i think that depends on the insurance company that is covering the repairs.

Yea my ins company goes 75% or more totaled. I wiped our old suv about 2 months ago ( note i said old lol) and it was $400 away from being totaled and they fixed it! $5,800 worth of damage. lol took that straight from the body shop to the dealer and bought the wife a new mountaineer.

well, I got some quotes.... cheapest one was 2800, and the most expensive was 3500.00.
It hadnt even been reported to the company yet...all the paperwork was sitting at the guys broker. they fed me a line that the stff will go out today and I should get a call early this next week.

soooo......I dont know wat they will do. I would like to keep the car going......its just all cosmetic.....
