Hit a UPS truck head on today!

You should go to UPS and get a UPS badge sticker and apply it to your vehicle...sort of like when fighter pilots used to paint an enemy flag on the fuselage to signify a "kill". 5 kills and you're considered an "ace".

Most of my badges are that of cats. I'm a "triple-ace".

 

looks like UPS' trucks aren't all that.

 

Oh man! That sucks, glad everyone is okay though. Just sucks that you had to end up in the aftermath of someones mistake.

 

dang man! have u found out if they are gonna total it or not?

 

DAMN!! most importantly your ok! I'm out here in Afghan. To think it's even just as dangerous back in the states!

 

glad your ok man that sucks about the truck

 

Sue the pants of the old lady that hit you..

Glad your Ok

 

Jesus man glad your all right, sorry about your rig. The important thing is that everyone walked away alright. However, this just goes to show that although our trucks may not be meteor proof, or be able to fight off the loch ness monster, the can take one hell of a beating and come back for more.

Not my Tacoma, but here's what I did to my wife's '97 Altima a week after Ike. My fault, got T-Boned by a F-150 jacked up quad cab with a brush guard on the front - only injury was my sternum is inflamed due to the seat belt jacking tight (even in a sideways collision!) The side bars (which are actually hollow tubes with only about a 1/8" thickness!) did their job - not even a scratch! Thank goodness no one or thing in the passenger side!

 

I just called my wife and told her to leave early for work because the UPS guy is supposed to be dropping off a package at the house this morning and I dont need him hittin the FJ...

 

Still waiting to hear back from my insurance adjuster. She just received the claim yesterday at 3pm pacific time. I have never been in a wreck in my life or a ticket. Pretty good for 40! I don't know if anyone has delt with progressive before? If so, let me know!

 

i have dealt with progressive before..........my experience with them was so-so......hopefully, you'll get everything squared away alot faster than i was able to.

 

just make sure your are on their asses every day.

 

They are made of aluminum....

VA tags! What part?

 

This is my first thread view and post on this forum and I've gotta say... That Sux!!! She didn't run, did she?

 

Glad to hear you're ok man. HOpefully they'll total that out for ya' and you can go get you a new one. I've had to work with Progressive before and didn't have any problems with them. They had my wifes car in the shop about 3 days or so after the accident and repaired no problem. Nothing as severe as yours though. Good luck.

No, she pulled over to the curb after it happened. She would not even approach me. About an hour after the wreck, her daughter was trying to sneak by after taking a picture and she turns to me and said, "Life sucks huh?"....I about went off on her but 2 of LAPD's finest were right next to me!

 

I am just glad you are okay.
