I have been told "totalling" nowadays means the repair is north of 70% of the estimated value. Unless the frame rail is bent I think thats rebuildable

Totaled or not isn’t solely dependent on if it’s physically possible to repair, but also the cost. Serious question... have you seen a vehicle that had every single airbag deployed NOT get totaled out? Because I haven’t.
Not solely dependent if it is physically repairable. The insurance company will put a percentage on the claim. Typically in the 80% of market value is the threshold for repair vs totalled. Anything can be repaired. Not everything is worth repairing.

Definitely totalled. I was checking out superduty trucks tonight.... Go give one of those a whirl! Once I drove it, I forgot all my Raptor thoughts.
At least you are loyal to owning a Ford...but there’s a huge difference between a Superduty and Raptor. Not saying one is better than the other. Just different.
Select your “needs” and buy accordingly.

TBH it doesn't look that bad, the front clip looks like it didn't bend from the pictures and the cab of the truck wasn't hit, just the doors and fender which would just be replaced. Usually cheaper then body work. The expensive part of fixing it will just be buying replacement parts and the bags. Most of which, shouldn't be to expensive.

What did the Ram's damage look like? Looks like an offset head-on. Glad you are OK.

Lots of sale-able salvagable parts still left on your Raptor. Don't let the insurance low ball you.

Aloha, HT

BUMMER..!! But your OK...can always get a new Raptor...My 2 cents...not on your Raptor,but "totaled" vehicles from my past...It might be borderline...as far as $$ if they want to fix,but if they dont total it outright,I'd fight to get it totaled...They NEVER ride the same...
I had a "Datsun" borderline years back...decided to go with fixing it....big mistake....
And another thing to think of...even if fixed,its going to hurt resale value,as the crash would be linked o the Vin.# if checked?? I know when I bought my Raptor last month I did all kinds of searches for accidents and it got a 100% good to go score.dont think I would of bought if I knew it had extensive repairs to it....
Go buy a new one...! LOL
