    Rear ended the other night coming home from the store....UGH. Woman Hit me and then I was pushed into the car in front of me. She was 100% at fault. Her flip flop got caught on her pedal. I think its just cosmetic....I hope. Waiting for her insurance company to send out someone to assess the damage.

    Front does not look bad at all. Back tailgate, Rear Bumper, Left Taillight -- maybe quarter panel...still driveable - bed seems slightly off...I hope the frame is not bent

    Any suggestions? Truck has 85K, 2014

    People that drive with flip flops are idiots!!! No exceptions!! I've seen so many accidents where the drivers foot couldn't move properly from one peddle to the other, because of their flip flops.

    Sorry to hear about your collision man..Hope you're okay, your truck is fixed right.

    Bumper supports are connected to the frame, bumper looks pushed in a ways may need to be straightened.
    If your truck qualifies you can get a new frame down the road!

    I think this is one of the few times that the flimsy OEM bumper actually prevented frame damage. Different story if she hit the tow hitch instead.

    Thanks Everyone for the responses. I am hoping it is not totaled. I am still waiting to hear from the insurance company - on when they can come out and assess it.

    I crawled under last night to get a better look. It looks like the crappy bumper took most of the damage. I did notice the rear quarter panel was puckered out and also noticed my driver door rubs at the bottom...Damn it.

    Jack it up onto stands, take off the rear wheels and look for any parts that look bent. I'd also remove the spare tire and take a look at the frame braces.
