Do you think this truck is totaled?

My brother got rear ended by a school bus the other day that pushed him into another f150 that was in front of him. Here are a couple pictures. The frame is bent in a few places but the collision shop says the repairs will cost about 8400 and the truck will still be worth 18000 after its done. I think with structural damage on the carfax the value is going to tank. What are your thoughts?

If they don't total it he should sell it ASAP - and then file a loss-of-value claim against the other guys insurance. We did that with an Explorer years ago and came out 10k ahead.
