Well the good thing is you're here typing away. Now you can think of how you want to mod the new taco...

"life sucks huh?" WOW

that rubs me the wrong way. I would have had a hard time giving a crap that the cops were there, she probably wouldnt be holding that camera anymore.

Its not worth going to jail over! She was a she, Never hit a woman, and she was a minor also!
I think she may have been reffering to herself!

Anthony999 · 10-08-2008, 08:54 PM

That sucks man. Im sorry. But insurance will take care of it, and you'll be in a new Taco before you know it

Glad you didn't get hurt - sorry 'bout your truck though.

That rubs me the wrong way as well. I'd have had to make a crack about how life only "sucks" when some one does something STUPID like not stop before pulling out into traffic.

no no no....got me wrong I didnt want to hit her either. probably would have wanted to see her digital camera in as many pieces as my truck and the tell her how bad "life sucks huh"... but yea could have been talking of herself

The tacoma's ability to keep people safe really makes me feel good to own one. Especially since most stories i have heard...the truck still runs.

GrtOutDrz · 10-09-2008, 07:08 AM

I agree! I am just glad this was not 1987 when I bought my first Toyota truck. It was the standard regular cab with rubber flooring,bench seat to match, 5 speed trans, and a/c. I dont think that poor little truck would have saved me. Altho, I wish it was 1987 because back then that truck was 7500.00 out the door and extra cabs were running 15,000.00 loaded!
