Damaged 2007 Tacoma Trd Offroad - Keep or Sell?

Recently crashed my Tacoma, and I'm trying to decide if I should keep it, part it out or try to sell it. Any advice? 299000KM, used as a daily driver. Has never needed a repair, general maintenance done every 5000km.

 

I'm guessing you don't have collision insurance or whatever it's called in Canada if you are asking this question.

Keep it - What was it's purpose before the wreck? Daily driver, weekend rig, offroad toy? Do you have space for multiple vehicles? Do you have to skills to fix it yourself or would you need to pay a shop?

Part it out - Do you have the facilities to chop it up and part it out? The time to meet buyers or package items for shipping? How will you get rid of the pieces you can't sell? How long are you willing to sit on a part to sell it?

 

Pics or it didn’t happen

 

Well how bad is it, kind of hard to determine if its scrap or not without any info.

Throw it in the dumpster

 

Sell that thing to a salvage yard, not worth the effort to make it roadworthy again.

That front tire looks like it might have been a factor.

 

yikes that's straight up garbage.






sell me your motor

 

Sorry to hear about it. Not worth fixing.

 

Sorry man!
That sucks!!!!

 

Someone put a drag racing tire in the bed by accident.

 

the cords showing give you better traction on ice

 

You got 13 years out of it. It did its job. Move on and let it die in peace.

 

Not sure why everyone above is telling you it's completely dead...

Did the airbags go off? If not and it were my truck, I'd pick up a new fender, lower control arm, spindle and upper control arm from the junkyard off another 4x4

$90 2005-2015 Toyota Tacoma With 4L Right Petrol intake air snorkel kit high performance system compatible kit Replacement black Rotational Molding (2005-2015)

2005-2015 Tacoma and put it back together. Then buy a new CV axle from your local auto parts store that gives you a lifetime warranty on it. You're not off-roading/wheeling it, so the non-Toyota (non-OEM) CV will be just fine.

Then buy a set of new tires.

 

I think you might be missing a few things but sure

 

I see the start of a truggy written all over that.

 

With that much damage to the passenger side there is likely damage to the body where the fender mounts. And with the LCA getting torn off like that it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume it tweaked the mounts making an alignment very difficult.

If OP has the skills, it might be worth the effort but usually if you have to ask the answer is no.
