    Yea I am guessing the speed limit. It was a 45mph zone and he was going down hill without hitting the brakes.

    Not as bad as the others...

    Head on with a Larimer County Sheriffs truck (White truck in the picture)

    Hard to believe but about $3000 in damage...

    Sheriff. He was going way too fast and cut the corner way too tight. I was able to come to a full stop when he hit me. This happened in the National Forest during the government shutdown. It was a huge PITA to get fixed.

    This was our old 96...the Toyota that started it all! Dad hit black ice and rolled it onto it's side in a ditch. It sucks because it was totally fine, just looked bad. And we really wanted to buy it back at the time and turn it into a crawler (would have been perfect) but my dad was doing TDY like two days from then and we had to go out the next day and buy a car. Plus we figured we were going to build up the 4Runner more but we decided it was too clean.

    I feel kind of bad because I remember crying when he called and I was like "omg which one did you roll?!" Because I thought it was this one:
    BothCars010_f10eafde927dbc44f399aef3745d2e6e4b1e1d01.jpg

    And he was like "and ugh...BY THE WAY I'm OK too" lol

    And the car he bought to replace it temporarily lol (pics from when we resold it)

    Toyota FTW! lol

    And honestly, I'm 99% sure somebody bought our 96 and built it up rather than parted it.

    The day I cried over my 96... Haha


    $1,000 of damage. Paid cash without going through insurance otherwise it would have been totaled due to frame damage.
