I used to work at precision collision and a bent frame rail most definitely doesn't mean its totaled . we had a new Acura MDX that was destroyed, not a straight panel on it. We did 65k worth of work to it because it was cheaper than replacing it with a new one. lol that thing was ****** up.

That's the problem your at the mercy of the insurance claim adjustor and the body shop estimators. Which in my experience is never a good thing.

I personally think that's bull, but ok... I've had... 6 for 6 cars get totaled, the insurance asked me on 3 for 6, the other 3 were definite goners.

I think other factors always play in. How long you have had them, how big they are. What TYPE of damage as well

It all depends on the insurance company. The worst I've ever had the displeasure of working with is progressive complete **** bags.
