    I love Tacomas even more now. I was involved in a roll over after some one hit me and sent me into a slide, then a roll over. Amazingly enough, I was uninjured. Just a 2 small pieces of glass in my hands, and a scrape on my left forearm.
    I will be writing a letter to toyota thanking them for such a safe vehicle.

    Yeah, me too. It was a company truck, not my personal truck.
    Now I get to shop for another truck (not my money), thats the good part.

    To everyone thanks for the good wishes.
