    It's one door completely off, 'A' pillar bent in, rocker panel, fender, wheel, right suspension (control arm broken, etc). Not sure what else, it took a side hit from a huge truck. I suspect transaxle damage, nothing left of the wheel.

    That's a total for sure. And to discount your statement from before about you having to do what the Ins co says... Not in the least. People think that, but the truth of the matter is that you had a brand new car, and due to no fault of your own, you no longer have that. A repaired version will in no way equal the same thing. Be vigilant, be steadfast, and if you have to, throw the biggest 3 year old Toddler tantrum you can muster. You will get your new car. You don't pay all that money for all those years to not get exactly what you want out of finally having to use your insurance. Make it count.
