Third gen cab crushed by semi truck, everyone survives

No joke. I'll bet the CSI was conducted based upon the splatter pattern of the fecal matter.

 

I think I can fix it for him, a little bondo and some buffing compound and I got a guy that's pretty good at removing door dings.

 

I laughed.

 

Jesus. Glad the guy got out alive with just a shoulder injury.

Speaking from experience, near death incidents like this force you to assess what is important in your life. I hope this young guy has the same experience.

Oh, in case you're wondering...the occasional trolling of the 3rd Gen forms is important in my life

 

This should be the banner for TW... I feel like this makes all the whining and B.S.... just part of coming on here...


This is an insane accident, I'm very happy everyone that was involved is okay.
Truck will be replaced but man after that...
I might keep a very long gap between me and semi's.

Seeing all the accidents posed on here makes me feel even safer with my Tacoma.
Drive safe everyone.

 

Thanks god no one was smoking a cigarette or weed stick

 

So stoked that the dude survived, this wreck along with plenty of other smashed tacos on tacomaworld has made me believe that this truck is very safe. I think toyota has done a fantastic job in their safety engineering division.

 

I saw an article in the newspaper today about the safest vehicles in America.
The Tacoma is listed under the top ten with the other "known luxury safe vehicles" like Audi, BMW and Mercedes.

 

Hell Yea! Double cab Long Bed FTW!

 

Those lists like that are not necessarily the safest cars, they are usually low volume sellers or driven by age groups that are safer drivers.

 

there would be to many issues to see what the real problem is.

 

Found the truck on a salvage site. LINK
I pulled one Pic off of his FB that has his name in it, if that's not ok for whatever reason, let me know and I'll take it down. I figure its fine, the news gave his name and the FB pic is in the public domain.

 

That crushed truck is really a horrific sight.

So the driver escaped without serious injury?

Amazing!

 

no crispy critters that day
