Drunk driver wrecked my truck tonight - pics
I consider myself to be quite defensive when it comes to driving, always watching out, looking at other vehicles, preparing for any bonehead thing they may do.... But you know, sometimes some clown...

Well, the shop located used parts, especially the bed - I nearly blew my coffee out my nose when he told me $3500. for a used bed!! Gads!
They got the costing done and have presented it to ICBC for approval.
It came in at 18 grand including the box.
I asked about it being totaled or not. Apparently they have a computer program they enter all the data into - Parts, labor and all that. Somehow this program has an assessment of the actual vehicle value and if the repair cost comes to within a certain amount of the value, it flags the repair sheet with a total loss message. Whew.. elaborate.
Anyhow the bodyshop manager said that it did not get flagged as a writeoff.
I should know soon, likely tomorrow if its a fix it or a total it.
