Well I got the news yesterday last weeks deer hit totaled out the old Dak I've had since 05. Hard to believe a headlight grill bumper radiator and AC condenser can total a vehicle. I ended up buying it back for 300 I just can't let the old Dak go. Shame its going to be a salvage title from now on. They said the radiator support is shot but I just don't see it honestly

 

to total one all it takes is more to repair that to buy at LOW BB.
You get paid for the damage?
You kill the deer? Eat the deer?
Salvage title lower on taxes and registration?

 

Got paid bought it back for dirt cheap no way the deer lived but I never found it I know I can piece it back together for about 800 bucks just got to find the right deal. Got 2 grand out of it so its not all bad

 

or you could get another truck the same year and have parts from your truck
just a thought.

 

I guess it depends on the shape and mileage but I macked a guy that cut me off in my 98 and they put 3,800 into it. Needed inner and outer fender,battery box,fuse box,grille,headlight,bumper and fog light, some frame straightening and alignment. For 300 tho I would of def bought it back even if you have to put a grand into it you know its past.

 

Mine was as good as wasted from the firewall forward on passenger side. I think total rebuild was under $1,100.
