Well it may be time to find a new monte but at least you are alive to do so and who knows the next one may be better than the first. Good Luck in the hunt.

I think the worst part is that there is really no other damage except for the rear passenger side quarter panel and the rear tire/stuff that attaches to it. Otherwise the car is perfectly fine!

He hit a ditch trying to miss the deer.... he pulled the little wishbone looking thing in there and just destroyed the suspension on that side of the vehicle. The quarter panel may not pull out very well, modern cars are made from such a thin sheet metal and when it gets hit like that, it stretches so much that it's nearly impossible to get it to shrink back up to where you cna pull that dent and safely fill it in. So a new quarterfender, maybe a bumper if you broke something that holds it, and new paint.... yeah, $3-5k depending on what body shop does it.

That totally sucks. Sorry to hear man...

That will really suck if they total your Monte, it looks like the body is in pretty good shape, minus a rear bumper and quarter panel. Other wise its suspention stuff that looks broken. IDK how its totaled, unless there is so major stuff broken that can't be seen.
