The insurance converage for total loss of your car covers, the retail cost , plus taxes.

Just check with your insurance company and ask to talk to a claims adjuster, normal insurance sales ppl will not know this.
Which insurance provider?


While sales tax is required in some states (32 to be exact, see below)

...there is NO requirement to pay new/replacement cost. I'd love to see where it is written in law/policy if you have it.
