Got hit in my truck today

I would get a few quotes from different body shops. When his insurance company sends out an appraiser you will have a few unbiased quotes to compare.

I cant believe people actually think they have the right of way pulling out of a parking space. i knew it seemed like that to some people. Oh well, 99% of people are idiots.

Yes, I have pictures of the accident, from the scene and from once I got it home.
They have yet to look at the damage, due to the fact that the truck is with me at school. They said there are some shops around this area that can look at it.
The damage is, scratch marks on the bumper and the chrome trim, and a gash of missing paint, about 1 inch long and an 1/8 of an inch wide.

DOH, I misread what you said. I thought you said they made you an offer.

Go to a shop that you want to do the repairs and get an estimate. You can submit that and see what they say. They'll most likely send out their own appraiser to review the damage and write up an estimate unless the shop you want to repair the vehicle is in their repair network. Keep this in mind, this is VERY important: If they try to steer you to one of their repair shops you can refuse, you're not obligated under any circumstance to use one of their preferred shops. They cannot steer you to any particular shop, it's illegal.
