What to do with a totaled JK

[Deleted member 59498]

So you don't just have to take what they will give you in a total? But actual market value? Thankfully never been in that position.... looking around for some wood...

I have a friend that negotiated with Geico on the payout for his car...it took a long time, they basically met him in the middle even though he technically never accepted. I don't think I would fool around with haggling, not even sure I would bother with the extra $400 but that's your call. It sounds like a fair value to me, take the money and run. Buy one that hasn't been wrecked.
Also love your Snazberry 2 door...don't see many of those!!

Didn't read that before I posted.

I can't speak for MO, but in NC they must pay you "ACV - Actual Cash Value". Problem is, there is no way to really determine that number. ACV is what you could get for the car/truck on the open market. So the value of the car/truck minus mileage, damage etc.

I don’t know how many miles are on your son’s Jeep but $20.7k seems low to me for 4 door sport. About a year ago I was looking at 2014-2016 and dealers were listing them for $25k+ and this was before the stimulus/shortage that raised the prices.
