ThomC Report post Posted May 25, 2015 Not enough information. What year, how many miles, what does the rest of the truck look like, is the frame and axle bent. If the insurance co. totals it you can buy it but it will have a salvage title. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Sparky Report post Posted May 26, 2015 I had one like that. You don't have to total it and don't have to have a salvage title. What I did was had insurance company pay about $100 less than the total value and I fixed it myself. The other insurance company will want to fix it for the least amount possible and when you threaten lawyers and lawsuit you tend to get your way. Looking at it I have seen used beds going for about $250-300 and I would just change the bed and have it painted. I had no cab damage and the frame and axle were fine. Then I took my damaged bed and made a trailer. It looks like a low velocity impact to me, less than 20MPH, and body damage only. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
