DAMN! Well, glad it wasnt worse...

yes thanks guys, I am ok, just sore back today, am seeing the chiropractor later.
The passenger side rear door is jamed shut and the bottom of the C pillar is damaged. I'm surprised the rear window didn't crack, the trunk lid scratched the glass where it hit it. Getting it appraised today. I'll let you know the figure. Thank God it's not on my insurance.

Well the insurance company wants to total it. I told them I would not make any decision until I talk to the body shop. I have a 2005 V6 LS rental and I HATE IT! Drive by wire SUCKS. Whole car is cheaper, seats, rearview mirror looks like its off a Taurus, no compass, no autotint, no home-link, just not the same car. Well I'll keep you all informed, will know more tomorrow.

That's not necessarily a bad thing! Find out from the body shop how much it would cost to fix it...you may be able to do a lot of the nut and bolt work yourself. Then find out how much the insurance company wants to buy it back totalled. You may be able to make some money on it! But most important of all...see how the vehicle title will be when completed. If it will have a salvage title, I would let it go. You will never, ever sell it for what you have in it with a salvage title...and you will never be able to trade it in to a dealer.
 
Man, I have seen your LS on cardomain, the damage is kind of bad, I am not sure if they can fix it very good. I wouldn't total it only for on reason, the color, I have the same color on mine and that's why I don't wanna sell it. Check it out.

Been there done that, 4 car pile up on the freeway. That is how I got the LS. My 96 Impala SS was totalled, number 3 car in line. The damage didn't look bad, but the frame was bent.

Hope you do better. Hope you didn't get hurt.
