Hey, get another max (if you can find one with a blown engine, do that it'll save you $$) and put the 3.5 in that one.

thats not a bad thing...thats a good thing in a way...with the money your are going to get from the settlement, u can get a good 4th gen with a blown engine (real cheap at the auction) and drop your 3.5 in there, that leaves you with extra ash to do more stuff.....
but i am sorry about this though...like we all say..once you're ok...lol
just shake it off and go 4th gen hunting.....

Oh my damn . . .
I want to say they might not total it. The Doors took a lot of damage and they can be replaced. The Roof would need some work as well as the quarter panel on the drive side, and by the side skirts on the pass side.
It might be very close to being totaled. Either way I hope they either repair it to perfection, or you get to pull your mods and they give you enough cash to purchase another Max.
Best of luck

I dont think he is going to part out, i am suprised the windows on the pass side didnt shatter? if they do total and you come out with some money, theres hope for a cheap(under $1k) 4th gen. I bought mine and so have others on here to fix up. oh and you are smiling in the pic of pass side..reflection in the windows

I'm just kinda giving him hell is all, he called me after it happened. If they total it out he could buy it back cheap then part it out or whatever he decides.

that sucks, but you werent hit at 35 mph. this is the 6th gen being hit at 31 mph, they test is conducted by the insurance institute for hwy safety
they didnt conduct the test on 4th or 5th gens, only frontal impacts.

I was intially hit at 35 mph but I fish tail (slowing me down some) for at least 20 feet before the side of my car hit a van.

Sorry for your loss. Don't lose hope or your desire to do the swap. Find another 4th gen and continue moving forward!

1k for a blown one + 1k for the 3.5 swap and the rest for a nice paint job color of your choice. Is that a deal or what?
