It sounds like all of the crumple zones did their job and crumpled from the tailgate right through the A-pillars. Have your insurance adjuster check it out and they will most likely call it a total. No possible way to straighten that much damage to a unibody.

Hope you and your passenger(s) are alright.

Thanks for the info, pics would be good as would the insurance report once they get a chance to look at it. 40mph is a very hard hit, so don't be surprised if they total it. If your brothers wasn't totaled it had to be a much slower impact.
