Default Need a little help

I wrecked my 2000 Dodge Dakota 4x4 the other day, it bent the drivers side frame rail in the front. Has any one else had this problem and had it fixed, just wondering what I'm looking at to fix it. I now it will have to be put on a frame straightening machine.

Gonna have to have a shop look at it, to see what it's going to cost to fix it. If insurance is paying for it, they will likely total it...... If you are paying for it, probably cheaper just to buy another truck. Even if you can find someone to straighten the frame, it will never really be right......
