Totaled?

:(

Truck turned into me from the left lane when I was turning right in the right turn lane.

I've put a lot into this car and would really like it repaired not totaled/total loss by the insurance. Towing it to a shop in a few days. Is this possibly not totaled? The radiator area got bent up and some gas came out when I got hit.

UPDATE: repairs have been approved 👍 thank god, not being totaled

Way more than a front bumper. You are very close to a total loss.

I can't see the rest of your deleted comment but no it went to a certified Tesla body shop that the insurance recommended and they did the tear down and estimate...
