Seems like a lot of cosmetic damage but doesn't look like there's much frame damage. I'd say it could be salvageable.

Yea it was pretty crazy. Thankfully we were okay and nothing was wrong with his truck besides the metal side part. He fixed it himself at the scene and drove off once police report and everything was done

Sorry to here that. From the pictures it looks like its totalled. Bumper re paint , quater panal looks pretty bad, need 2 new doors n side mirror re paint. I say at least 8000 dollars to fix by a good body shop.

Definitely not totalled. All cosmetic and your car is worth way more than that cost. Glad you are okay.

Glad you are okay, that could have been a lot worse with a truck like that!

It doesn't look totaled to me either unfortunately, i'm sure its fixable as it looks like mostly surface damage. Good luck with your insurance claim!
