    We hit a deer a last week and the front end of the car is crushed, air bags deployed - and it's officially totaled. 2010 Prius with about 222,000 miles on it. The back of the car is fine, the interior is fine.
    Just put $4000 into the engine due to the head gasket last January :/

    My question is - I can buy it back for $800 - and want to know if I could make enough money off the re-sale to make it worth the time of listing, selling, etc. I live in rural Nebraska, so it's not a big market. I'd only be interested in selling the full vehicle and not parting it out.

    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The whole car will still have to be disassembled for parts.
    It's unlikely that anyone will buy a wrecked junk 2010 to drive.
