First mistake, don’t let your wife load up the rods in the truck. She closed the door on this guy lol, it is what it is.
Am I skrewed? It’s an Abu Garcia vengeance 7ft casting.. better off just buying a new one or can I fix it somehow?

Just buy an ugly stik they are unbreakable
I have the same one and I just packed it for a road trip with my girlfriend. Now I’m scared
Anyway yeah you’re cooked
The break is in a bad spot. You could get a tip eyelet put on it but the action will never be the same.
Cut it off at the lower one and use it for fish/techniques that don’t rely heavily on sensitivity.
Side cutters and sand paper should get most of the job done. You can get replacement tips but its probably not worth the effort to save a few inches on an otherwise throwaway rod.
Super glue, duck tape and contact cement.
Worth a shot lol
No but your rod is
Yes and no. You can repair it but at that point it would be a back-up rod. It will never have the strength it once had. It would be fine for Panfish but I wouldn’t trust it with any type of game fish.
Cooked? You are baked, deep fried, toasted and over done.
