Totaled?

Sucks about your truck man! Glad that you're okay though!!

 

Did the airbags go off? They are really expensive to replace.

 

Did any airbags deploy?

Was your front door pushed into your rear door?

 

I would say no

 

About 2k for steering bag, clock spring, sensors and replace seatbelt.

 

That looks to be totaled

Frame damaged for sure and this frame on the Tacoma is a bitch to pull out. My cousin has auto body shop and said Toyota Tacoma frame is almost impossible to straighten up if damaged.

 

The knee airbags might have gone off too.

 

If the frame was damaged, then expect it to be totaled. Otherwise, I'd think it's not a total loss on the vehicle

 

I don't have a price for that and just going off prices of getting my truck fixed. I know the frame can be straightened from a tweak like mine was. If actually bent, you want a total IMO.

 

Agreed. After the frame is bent it is never the same.

 

Wow! Thank God you are okay!!

 

Just keep driving it like that.

 

Is the frame still straight?

 

When my 2000 was wrecked the Frame was bent up like a Pretzel, it spent over 40 hours alone on the frame machine and 48 days in the body shop. I have absolutely no idea why someone thinks the truck is totaled if the frame has damage, my understanding is that it works on a percent of value, like if damage exceeds 70% of the value then they total it.

 

how many miles are on it? We had a Tundra with 5k on it and they replaced the frame. It all depends on cost of repair.

 

How did it drive after the repair?

 

To be totally honest, it never felt the same as before it was wrecked but I did drive it for another 6 or 7 years afterwards.

 

You had better hope they write it off. Get a new one I sure wouldn't want it, even if it was fixed (so called) properly.

 

Depends on state. Laws are written with a % of value normally. So depends on repair cost.

 

Like someone else said, only the adjuster knows. All I know is if anything is tweaked you want it replaced.

Right off the bat you need: a new hood and hinges, grill, bumper, license holder, fender, inner fender liner, fog light/cover

And possibly: a new door, windshield if it's cracked, possibly a new wheel (have it looked over good), possibly suspension/skid plate, was any wiring damaged, probably need a new battery since it's right there it could have been cracked.

And worst case: the hood being bent could have tweaked the other hinge/fender area
