How much of that damage was done by the IED and how much by the crew/friendlies to keep it out of enemy hands?

No idea, but the IED did disable it.
I don't care how much armor you put on something you put enough explosives under it its gonna blow up.

Oh, absolutely. One can up-armor what is basically a light truck only so much. Anti-landmine designs probably don't work very well against IEDs at road- or above-road-level.
