    I got lucky back in September when Irma blew through. I normally park my Taco on the left side of our driveway but with the storm coming, I fortunately opted to park closer and perpendicular to the garage. Not a scratch!

    Yep. And as others have noted, you can get a new Taco, but you can't get a new you.

    Still, what a bummer.

    I had my truck towed to my local Toyota dealers body shop. They are a certified Toyota collision repair shop. Their estimate to fix my truck is $7300. Just waiting to here from State Farm now.

    Is Jake from State Farm handling your claim?

    @JTS2014TACO is this right? Only $7300 to fix? That seems like a low figure.
