Fell asleep... need advice.

Well i was driving since 5 AM this morning, and right around 10 AM I fell asleep while driving down a lonely NM highway. I drove into the median, woke up, steered out of the ditch, overcorrected, and slid sideways down the highway at 55 MPH until the truck rolled over sideways and came to rest on the roof.

I have a lot of money in the truck and was about to install twins. It looks like this will have to wait for a little bit. My truck looks like a wadded up tin can. I am amazed that I only got one scratch.

First: Insurance adjusters will give me money for my brand new DD clutch? FASS? Toolbox? 315's? Gauges? I have receipts for everything. How do I approach this?

Second: I had 46,000 on the ticker of my dodge When I compacted it. What will I expect to see in a check from the insurance?

third: Should I be watching for a used 600? Try and pick up a 610 brand new? Am I going to get a more reasonable deal new or slightly used? I am assuming that I may have to put some more money down, but I'm hoping not too much.

Fourth: I am switching from the NV5600 to anm auto and having DTT do a right off the lot rebuild. How much of a problem is that going to be to find? I really want the extra quickness.
