Re: legal dollar amounts
There is no hard and fast rule, but I've seen insurers pay people approximately $20 - $25 a day for loss of vehicle use, if that's what you're talking about.
You don't mention WHY you're stuck, so my answer may be incomplete. $20 - $25 a day is approxmately what insurers pay for a small rental car, so they'll sometimes pay about the same for loss of use of a car.
Did you suffer any other financial loss due to what I presume is your loss of vehicle use? If so, then it might not be enough. Also, be sure you're not settling your entire claim for just this loss of use claim, unless you have no other claims or losses associated with it.
Good luck
