Looking at the used prices for 21 trailhawks, you have a pretty steep hill to climb to be totaled on dollar value. Short of it being not physically repairable, you might not be under that amount as it looks like it hit the corner and yanked stuff away from other stuff, which is usually less damaging than smushing it into other stuff. It'll also matter if you have all the electronic nannies on your TH. Those add to the dollar value for parts and add labor time to check/calibrate them.
I'm not a professional, so this is just an layman's estimate. I think the wheel being smashed into the body may have done enough damage that a reputable body shop won't repair it. They'd basically have to cut out a quarter of the vehicle and swap with a donor. Some places will do it for the payday, but some won't. More won't in states that regulate bodywork more. Even if they would do it, by me you are looking at probably a 20k bill for repair on a vehicle that has a retail used price of about $29,500 (but there aren't a lot of them around used, and they are pretty optioned out).
In a normal market, I'd put my money on totaled. I'd still do that, but feel less certain of it with the current used car market.
