Damn. Very clean truck, it looked great last week. Any indication as to the amount of damage and whether its a total loss?

Should be meeting with his insurance adjuster sometime this week and we will find out. From what I can tell it just looks cosmetic with no frame damage. However I'm by no means an expert. The really jacked up thing is that I pulled off the road onto the shoulder before getting on the interstate to take a phone call. He hit me while I was parked at least three or four feet off the shoulder.
