    Hey everyone, first post NOOOOOOOB!

    So i bought my 09 Taco LB 4 door trd sport, w/ JBL sounds on January 7th, got a killer deal and it even came with a shell!
    [​IMG]

    Got it tinted that looked great too!

    The joy from my new purchase was short lived when i got hit by an illegal w/o a license last Friday. I had it for 13 days. I hadn't even made my first payment, in fact i just got the final loan information in the mail that day.Luckily my friend and I walked away from the accident unharmed after sliding off the side of the road and down a 30 foot embankment. Enjoy the photos, i think it just may be totaled.

    I'm not sure what the "that's California voters for ya" comment was about. But I gotta say, if the caught him. His ass is going back where it came from. Hopefully after a stint in jail.

    Glad you're both OK too.

    they cut him a ticket and sent him on his way, so lame. insurance valued the truck around $26,800, tax & license $2,600, $1400 for the shell, and 400 for this years registration that the dealership already paid!
