    Camper top with racks, Custom fogs behind lower bumper. Interior LED lighting, Rock Lights, Hella 500s with upraged bulbs behind black billet grill, AAL, Front 5100s
    Dude what the hell did you paint your grill with? Somehow that is the only thing that looks fine in all of that mess.

    Glad you are ok!

    That truck is done. The rear axle is shot, the frame must be bent, etc. I would definitely pull the tails, roof racks, intermittent wiper stalk and anything else someone might want.

    good news man, you are alive!

    bad news, If the cost of the repairs are less than the value of your truck then her insurance will probably opt for the repairs. it would probably be cheeper to rebuild your entire truck then it would be for her insurance to sign it off (because its still brand new.) If the same damage happened to a older tacoma, totaled for sure.

    I feel for you man... I really hope it is totaled!

    No worries on the total dude, its been achieved, yep gonna write that one off for sure... & I agree with your line of logic on the whole new/heavily repaired truck... good luck & get your ass to the doctor & DOCUMENT EVERYTHING RELATED TO THIS ACCIDENT, & don't settle , don't talk numbers , etc; You may have injuries that won't surface for weeks, thats why any insurance co. would want to settle ASAP, especially with the burden of evidence against the insured... good luck....:cool:

    What they all said, especially 4WD's comments...
    also remember to get a contact for the Sonic dude that witnessed,
    unless that's already on the police report??
    and whoever else may have witnessed the event.

    Sorry Man...

    glad she didn't kill anyone.
    You're likely to get it totaled. it needs a new frame and by itself it's a 10K+ repair, then there is a lot of body work plus all the repairs to the front..

    I hope this get handled asap for you.

    NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! why couldn't she just hit someone else!!! i'm sorry for your truck and glad to hear your ok (somewhat). i could see where having a new truck get heavily repaired is a bitch so i hope that its totaled (sorry tacoma) and that her insurance gets you a new one.

    Good thing you came out alive, even with aches and pains! Your preparedness for the worst probably helped with the mental aspect of it all. There was a witness, you have insurance, she has insurance and everyone lived in part due to the cars involved being well-built.

    Now let's hope for a clean-ish bill of health as it pertains to this accident and that your truck gets totaled out so you can get another! :)
