Well, $5,000 worth of damage is probably by their estimation over 51% of the trucks value.
That is why it is being totaled.

I couldn't drive it around on a salvage title could I
Not exactly sure how he did it, but when I wrapped my dad's Chevy Scottsdale around a tree and bent the frame, it was totalled by the insurance company, he got a settlement, bought it back for less from the salvage company (I think), paid to have it straightened, and then drove it another 50k miles....just got a new door from the junkyard. He ended up with cash in his pocket. Could have been something shaddy, though...not sure...I was 17 at the time, and wasn't part of all his wheeling and dealings.
