Finally got a heads up from the ins company that represents the body shop. Numbers were discussed, and they are 99% going to cover new (used) engine, install, related hardware and fluids, plus the $2,400 bill racked up at Ford Truck Center.... So, I am expecting a 15-16 k check, as discussed, and will begin further diagnosis in January. In the meanwhile, money has to be made, and I hate canceling work, so I am trading in my 2014 Explorer Sport for Morgans F-350, most likely this weekend. This only took 6 fvcking months... LOL
Once repair/running order has been restored to my 2013, I will either sell it as is with twin turbos and all, or return to stock, and sell for payoff, and part out my bolt on goodies that I don't transfer over to the 2017.
