Glad it's working out, Cubey. I can't stand insurance, but it sounds like you made out decent on it. I'm glad they didn't "total" it, that would have been a mess.
It depends on the state. I had a car that was deemed "totaled" by the responsible party's insurance, they gave me the value of the car, less a few hundred they'd have gotten sending it to the junkyard. They didn't do anything title wise.
I guess they figure I didn't have an inflated value on it, it couldn't be insurance fraud, especially with a $2300 receipt for the transmission just a month ago. Who spends $2300 then tries to total a $3500 vehicle? The dash cam video probably helped too. You can hear me trying to open the door but failing as it's rolling away, and see me walking after it when I realize it's out of my hands.
The trailer might get branded as totaled, since it suffered more severe damage, but it sounds like he's trying to avoid that, since I'd have to potentially take it back to Arkansas for state police safety inspection after repairs to be sure the box doesn't go flying off and into a vehicle behind. He knows I'm registered in Arkansas but am in the NW right now (he works out of WA, since that's where it occurred) so he's being helpful in that respect.
Progressive has been good to work with before. My last regular car was hit and run in a parking lot when it was parked. I used their own repair center (all closed be down now) and they charged me the least deductible that was on my policy which was in think $50 less than the hit & run coverage deductible.
