DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

dang...sorry to hear that.

hope your ok. was anyone with you?

 

That sucks, hope your ok!

 

No, I was alone and no one else was on the road at the time. I'm fine other than a knot on my forehead. My lunch box went flying and hit me just above the eye. I knew it was coming and braced as best I could. Other than that, no injuries. I'm sure some aches and pains will pop up over the next week or two. But I'm off work until next Friday so I'm just gonna take it easy.

 

Damn, that sucks Blake, hope your ok sir.

 

That's crazy, I bet it felt it was in slow motion during all that. Glad you don't have any significant injuries.

 

It really didn't seem as slow motion as the couple other wrecks I have been in but then again I was already going slow to begin with due to the conditions on the road so it wasn't a high speed roll to begin with. I just remember when it started to roll thinking "please roll all the way over, I don't wanna be left hanging upside down". Luckily it did roll all the way and I was able to get out no problem.

 

Dang Blake
Sorry but glad your ok

 

glad your ok

glad you're ok...could have been worse.

it might be early but what are you considering for a replacement?

 

Probably underwear at this point.

 

She posted on the DFW 4Runners FB group; she's fine but the truck is (obviously) gone.

 

I was already looking at selling the truck and getting a half ton in May or June. This is just going to speed that process up. Looking at 2018ish Sierras with the 6.2L V8. But I'm not committed to anything yet. Still looking at 3.5 Ecoboost as well.

 

Part out?

Edit: That was sarcasm/satire. Don't be mad at me anymore, k? <3

 

Glad you're okay.

Chop it into a trail rig!

 

I would love to make it into a trail rig. But I don't have the space or time at the moment. Other than the new truck, all my money is going toward a new house in a couple of years.

 

I'll probably have the Tacoma posted for sale by the middle of next week. It would be an awesome buy for someone wanting to refresh their high mileage 1st gen. Only has 152k. Complete engine tune up including TB/WP and full front end rebuild at 141k. New Method wheels and Toyo AT3s at the same time as well as Transgo shift kit and full Toytec Aluma series suspension at 141k as well.

 

I be interested in it when ya ready

 

Trucks come and go, but you are irreplaceable. Glad you're okay dude. Let us know if you need help with anything.

 

Man... I just watched the video of the wreck on 35 this morning. So bad....

 

Yes it is there is a bunch of videos around now

 

The real-time one, next the red prius is tough to watch.
