This is not your decision. Usually an insurance adjuster will make this decision for you. If there is no frame damage then i cant see why it ont be repaired. The car will probably never be the same a year or 2 down the road. My advice is to do what the insaurance says to do, if they fix it, then put it up for sale and recoup what you can. Look for another vehicle in the meantime or trade it in for a new car.





PS.. What happened to the deer to get $9300 in damage? Was the deer totalled?I hit a deer in 2002 trans am, it has $9300 in damages. Is it considered totaled?
both are totaled
Are you asking if the deer or the trans am is totalled???
probably not totaled. it is worth almost twice what it would cost to fix it.
For your car to be totaled, the repair price must exceed the amount the car is worth. Since it does not, your car is not totaled.
If both airbags deployed it will be considered totaled...if the repair is more than half the cars value the insurance will usually total the car...the insurance company will give you the difference but make sure what the car is sellinf for in your neck of the woods and if it is seloling for more you can fight it out and tell them to hand the rest of the cash over...but don't settle for less, most insurance companies try to low ball you and try to pay off the least amount of money
If they don't total it. Get rid of the car as fast as you can. That much damage and it is never be the same.
How many miles on the odometer...?
you'll prolly get the 18,000
if you ask me i say u sell the parts that sill work to a dealer ship and save that other money and use that money from the parts and most likely some of your own to get a new car
if it costs half the price of the car to fix it then dont waste the money. buy a new car. you wont be making anything. youll just be losing a car.
It is not totalled. They will repair it.
yea thats half the price of the car no point in keeping it get a new one
depends how much the cars worth


if its worth less then yes


if more then no
Poor deer.
