My 2001 Oldsmobile Silouette was rear-ended. One unofficial quote to fix the damage is between $7000 to $8000. If the Kelly Blue Book value of my vehicle is $8,000, is the insurance company likely to declare my vehicle 'totalled'?

The insurance company will pay no more than the vehicle's value. If the amount to fix your damaged vehicle exceeds its worth, the insurance company will declare it 'totaled.' If the cost to fix your vehicle is less than its worth, they will pay to fix your vehicle. If the cost to fix your vehicle is close to $8,000, they will probably declare it 'totaled.' If the cost is close to $7,000, I would look for the insurance company to fix your vehicle.
