What actually bent on this bumper? Did the mounts give way? Did the bolts shear? Did the frame bend upwards? In other words, what gave out to allow the bumper to rotate back? And, why did they total the truck? A bent frame alone would not total an 03 or 04. In fact, a local shop here is repairing a
2003 that suffered a tweaked frame, two blown air-bags, hood, fender, and grill damage - with a stock bumper to boot.
Either way, what's more valuable? Your buddy's truck, or him/her walking away from the scene? At 30MPH, the overall damage would have been quite a bit more.
Rover VS 120lb deer at 40mph
Rover VS Saturn at 30MPH
And have we talked about recovery points?
