Yes ? In Mississippi we got our DL @ 15 ( 1979 ) - so licensed to drive for 37 years! Thanks for reminding me.

It's. A dodge, pray it's totaled and buy something else.

Congratulations. I’m an actual insurance adjuster.

How can I be of assistance? Proud to say my career has led from car sales to sales management to operating the largest brand specific Luxury dealership in the country.

Ok ? I work with insurance adjusters on a daily basis. My relationship with adjusters swings a car from a non total to a total on a daily basis. If you say otherwise I call BS!

That will most probably be repaired. Airbags are not always a total.

Again, congratulations. That doesn’t mean much.

Sure thing, buddy. Posted on 12/9/17 at 8:45 pm to HubbaBubba
I think the threshold for total loss in Louisiana is when repairs reach 75% of retail according to NADA guide.

I understand - BamaFan. Actually I managed a large family luxury dealership in Birmingham before moving to larger opportunities.
Remember in life & business sometimes it’s not what you know, it’s whom you know - cheers & best of luck. Remember take care of the customer & don’t cheat them on repairs.

It has frame and is totaled, no doubt. No way that left center rail is untouched.

In Mississippi in 1976 you could get your Learner’s Permit at age 14 and 1/2.
You had to have a licensed driver with you (of any age!) in the passenger seat and the Learner could drive from 6:00 AM until Midnight.
This is how a shitty State stays at #50.

Do the doors all open and close correctly? Drivers side of the vehicle looks tweaked at least to the back of the driver door. Corner impact?

Citadel 
I know nothing regarding repairs, but my guess is there is no frame damage, they may repair it. Looks mostly cosmetic on the front end + airbags. Value is a little higher pending the mileage since it's a Citadel.

If they total it, you won't get any $ for your new tires.

It's astonishing to me we are at a place with automobiles that damage like that is considered junk. I swear there has to be a bubble in here somewhere. How on Earth did we get to this point?
