    Not even close. And how would they make money off of totalling a car? When they deem it as totalled, they have to write you a check for the current value of the car. If a car was worth $20,000 and had $4,000 in damage, I see absolutely no advantage to paying out $20,000 to total it instead of paying $4,000 to get it fixed.

    It's much, much, MUCH higher than 20%. I would think 70-80%... of course not taking into account frame damage and other things that just cannot be fixed. But say your car was worth $3000 and it was keyed and needed a new paint job, they would go for a good amount (a couple thousand) of paint work before considering it totalled.


    ETA: Did the research, it's between 50 and 80 percent depending on the company. Most fall closer to 80%

    Hey good word of advice. I think they teach you to look both ways on your driving test at 16. Maybe you should have done that. Don't trust anyone but yourself on the road, that's a word of advice.

    total it out and get something else.. if your insurance won't total it, i suggest you sell it. It will be **** no matter how well it's fixed up.
