    Had a slight accident Thursday night. Someone decided that they did not like the looks of my wife's car, so they decided to pull out in front of me on a busy road. Wife is hurting more than me, but we're alive! kind of glad we were not in the Tacoma, or the folks in the other vehicle would probably have been hurt or worse.

    Yeah, the box held up pretty well. No complaints. The other vehicle was a 2000 or so 4Runner. Tore off the front wheel.

    wow, that's some legit damage. glad you guys are ok. looks like you two could've had it a lot worse. those scions are tough. i had an '09 tc and hit a deer on the highway going 80 and that 5 star crash rating is no joke. deer completely destroyed my front right side but other than that, i was perfectly fine and didn't feel a thing.
