    On Wednesday my dad just had to go and pick up something from his shop so he took my Tacoma (saves more money on gas compared to his Tundra.) When he was only a couple blocks away a guy tried to run a red light and hit my dad on the passenger side making my truck turn and roll over. My dad got out of the truck with a scratch on his knuckles and is fine which is all that matters.

    The other driver couldn't go anywhere. He was driving a VW and the engine went inside the car. His car turned out worse than mine. Luckily he was able to walk out of his car with just a small pain in his knees

    Glad everyone is ok. Same thing happened to a guy I work with. His dad borrowed his 650+ hp camaro because his truck was in the shop. A guy jumped a one lane bridge and hit the camaro head on. Luckily his dad was ok, but the camaro.... not so much!

    If he had ATRAC this wouldn't happen, the ATRAC would activate and prevent the truck from rolling over...

    Sounds like dad needs to be grounded including taking his Tundra & cell phone away from him for a few weeks. :)

    Glad everyone is okay. You never know when you walk out the door if you'll be back.
