Default yes... YES... it happened to me :/

two weeks ago I got rear ended by a car that was rear ended.

I was stopped behind a car that was waiting to make a left turn. The suburban behind me barely stopped in time and the the truck didn't stop at all. The truck hit the suburban and then the suburban hit me. Shook me up pretty bad...

What do you guys think???

this is what scares me... I have taken it to a reputable shop, but once you get into a wreck like this, you lose the integrity... there might be a slim chance its totaled, i should find out today

Sorry to see. Any neck or back pain after this hit? The rear quarter panel on left looks most damaged. The right side looks ok from te pic. You'll need new bumper, bumper skin, tail lights, trunk and so on. I'm gonna guess 9K.

That looks like he was going at LEAST 55... IMO
I was in a car accident just like that but I was the middle car, and it was nowhere near what dmg you received... Sadly I dont have any pictures with me.
I'm sure you will be suffering some neck pains and back pains soon. I didnt feel it for two days, but after that, dam... i was in pure pain.
Dam i hope thats considered a total!

once metal is bent in/out, and is bent back it will lose its original integrity for sure.. just like mariano^ said the damages could cost ~10k but probably not enough to get the car totaled
