Little BooBoo

So there is was cruising at 30 mph when some guy decided I was too unimportant to let go as he wanted to turn left from a side street. He nailed me at about 15 mph. After all was said and done, he cost his insurance $18K to fix the Taco. If only they could've found $4K more it would be been totaled. Took the shop 35 days to get it done.

 

The after pics? Let's see how they did.

 

Dayum, that's a lot of $$$ worth of damage for a 15mph collision, how's the truck feel now that you got it back?

 

Our stories are semi-similar. I spun on an interstate bridge and hit concrete in 2012 in my 07 with 54k miles. did 17k worth of damage and wasn't enough to total it, and it took FORTY days in the body shop/service.

Just for the record, if it even cracked his bed slightly (mine was an inch long) they'll replace it. In 2012 it was $1,500 alone. That stuff adds up quick.

 

Everything is back to normal. I got a whole new right side and a new bed. The shop even dipped my rim before it got put on and gave me the driver side nerf bar since they said the company sent a pair. And I'll post pics in the next couple days. Got some pretty neat red stuff on the radar rolling in.

 

I see your drive shaft disconnected. Make sure your gears in the 3rd member are good and all is running smoothly. Went through a similar situation a few years ago.

 

Wow that's a lot of money. No frame damage? Glad it got squared away
