    My 09 Tacoma saved my life the other day. A lady ran a stop sign while i was driving down highway 20 on whidbey island, and I T-Boned her at about 50mph. I walked away with a sore neck and some ribs. It could of been much worse. THis was also my first experience with a airbag deployment. It really shows how safe these trucks really are!

    Yeah, I hit the passenger side. Luckily the two kids that were in the car were in the back seat. The other driver's insurance is going to cover it. But some how the truck isn't totalled. The estimate is around 13k though and its going to be about a month and a half before I get it back.
