Like a kid waiting for Christmas

The photos are of my dream truck (2020 Barcelona Red Metallic TRD Off-Road w/ MT) that was destroyed, July 5, 21 because someone texting slammed into my rear end full speed when I was at a red light. I did a preference request July 26th, and I got the call last week that it should arrive at the dealership sometime Nov 7-15. I seriously haven't been so anxious to get something since being a little boy waiting on Christmas day. New one's going to a premium w/ tech package (moon roof, leather seats). Same color and of course manual transmission.

 

Damn that sucks, I had a similar things happen to me earlier this year, bought a 2010 Ranger FX4 first serious car purchase. Loved that truck for the 2 months I had it, I was hit by an unlicensed driver at highway speeds when I was stopped for construction. That car sandwiched anther car between my truck and him. I was the only one who didn't go home in an ambulance that night(built ford tough). that being said the Ranger was to small for myself, my fiancé and the dog, so I ended up with my beloved 2013 dclb.

 

Looks like the frame bent. That is what happened to mine. No fixing that.

 

Yea that's what insurance said. Still miss that truck, but wouldn't trade the taco for it.

 

Welcome to TacomaWorld

 

I hear that. I get very attached to my trucks. They're like pets to me, I give them names, and I grieve when something happens to one. I may be getting a new upgraded one, but if I had a choice, I would have preferred to skip the pain and suffering of the car accident, and kept the one in the picture.

 

Welcome to TW!

 

It's FINALLY HERE!!!! Took the keys on Tuesday.

 

Beautiful truck - built to last
