Well, she's back on her axles. The damage on the outside appeared to be minimal. However, when I went in I immediately noticed the buckled ceiling, which is evidenced by the gaps now present above the kitchen cabinets and the wall of the bathroom. I couldn't open the slide, so at this point, the picture is all I could see. On the outside, the steps were toast and the awning of course. Quite a bit of skidding as it obviously slid after it went over from the wind.
I would bet the ceiling and roof alone would cause it to be totaled. I can't imagine that is easily repairable if repairable at all.
It's on its way to the local dealer to be assessed and a quote generated for the insurance company to determine what they'll do.
Here is a video link of the "uprighting" process, which I thought was done very well. While it bounced when it landed, it on the whole was a very controlled process.
