My father was recently in an accident (his fault) and his truck is destroyed – no doubt it will be a total loss. I am helping him navigate the insurance process and have a few questions.
- The truck is a 2005 Super Duty, with only 31k miles. It was in excellent condition – I doubt there is a better example to be found. I booked it out through NADA and KBB and the value is showing in the $12k-$15k range. Obviously, this truck would have sold for much more in the current market (I only found 2 examples of ’04-’06 F250s with under 45k and both were listed in the mid $20k range). What can he expect to be offered from the insurance company, and is this something that is/can be negotiated? If so, any tips on the negotiation process?
- At the time of the accident, the truck had an older slide-in truck camper on it, which was also destroyed. He did not have any type of insurance on the camper itself (truck campers are not titled or registered in my state). Is this something that would be covered under this truck insurance? The State Farm employee who took the initial claim did not know, and advised me to speak with the total loss team about it when the time comes.
