Find out if that's how it works by you.
Must be different from State to State. Here in MD my insurance gave me a check and took the car.

Another thought. If insurance gives you a check, you keep the X and would ONLY needt o spend $1-2K more for a total repair - then maybe.

You could look at it like what could you buy to replace the X in that price range/quality. However, I'd be afraid of not getting enough money AND it does have 140K miles on it.

Lets see what kind of money they offer. Keep in mind though that the adjuster stopped adding up the repair quote when he got to $9K so not much hope I'm thinking.
