Avis car rental. Question about car configuration. Chrysler Pacifica.

Hi travelers,

I live in Northern California. My family is going to be visiting me next month and we plan to go on a road trip. I have booked a rental car through Avis with pick up and drop off at Oakland airport.
We are 8 of us, including myself who will be driving the car. I booked a minivan, Chrysler Pacifica. I called up AVIS and they said it fits driver + 7 passengers. However most of the minivans I have seen around are 2+2+3 configuration.
Has anyone had experience in renting a minivan through Avis? What was your seating configuration? 7 or 8 seater.

Do you have any better suggestion on what I should be doing?

Hello fellows!

After 12 years of driving carefully and safely, my time has come. I bumped into a car parked in a spot next to me which has damaged my bumper and fender.
I went around a few collision centers in Northern California and the estimate ranged from 3k to 7k.
I can’t make sense out of this variation.
Can someone with such unfortunate experience please suggest what should a realistic cost should be?
I am with Tesla insurance. Does anyone know how much the premium goes up by?
