    Jeez. Glad you are ok. My f350 apparently failed this test many times. Thinking about selling and getting a mini truck like your old one.

    Wow I’m glad you’re okay, that’s so scary, I didn’t even notice that you were a female when I originally read through this but I should’ve realized when you said you didn’t even break a nail :)

    When buying a truck (like 30 years ago) I ask my Paramedic/Firefighter brother what he thought. He paused a moment and said, “Never pulled a dead person from one of those, buy it.”

    Now we both drive Tacomas.
    Not guaranteed to save everyone, but they are well built.

    Glad your ok. Looks horrific. You may be able find another truck if you look hard enough. Just remember a few things . When the truck is deemed totaled , the insurance company will try and low ball you sometimes. Don’t take there first offer . Let them know you need a replacement truck and you will need the maximum payout to accomplish that. These trucks are worth a lot so do your research . With the 24 coming out you may be able to get a decent deal somewhere on a Gen 3 . Good luck ,this obviously could have been a much worse outcome . At least it’s an object that is replaceable. Just remember to do your homework on the insurance end to make sure your financial outcome is best for you.

    Based on posts I've seen I would guestimate about 10%-15% of members are female.

    Glad to hear you are okay. I’ve pulled a few patients out of vehicles flipped over on the roof with not as good an outcome.

    Good luck finding another one. With all the Toyota commercials I have heard lately sounds like they are trying to move out the remaining ‘23’s with some incentives.

    I think he was asking what led to the rollover, not how you managed to escape injury.

    Thanks that’s very helpful. I’ve never totaled a vehicle before (only wrecked one) so this information is very helpful!!!! ♥️
