...and I'll continue to maintain that if you blindly buy into an insurance policy thinking you will be "made whole" in the event of a loss, THINK AGAIN. READ YOUR POLICY. All it says is you'll get something based on the current market value of similar vehicles.
You pay way too much for a pristine 20 year old truck expecting that you'll get what you paid for it if it gets in a wreck, you're in for a surprise.
