    Main reason I bought taco over 4runner was because it had better crash test ratings. On the tacoma world forums, 3rd gen, you see a lot of posts of these rediculous accidents in a taco, but somehow everybody in the taco survives.

    Am wondering if the 4runner has similar examples? Or does it really just crumple on the real world like it predicts by the safety tests.
