05 Tacoma vs. 18 Wheeler

that second photo is mind blowing. glad your okay.

 

This thread is chilling. I bought a Tacoma because I did not feel carting my two small kids around in a 2 door Honda Accord was a good idea. I loved that car but I love my kids and my health more. I'm glad to hear you are recovering and making good progress. How much has this changed your outlook and perspective on life? I was in a bad accident about 6 years ago. I was fine but the other lady was not. All I could do was pray for her. I still dont know how she is. That accident made me look at things much differently. I opened my eyes to life and started doing and experiencing alot more of life. Learned a lot about myself and I have become a better person for it.

 

You made it and no one died - are you Irish, because while you had the misfortune of sleeping while driving, your luck was unreal.

Glad you're making progress - you will run one day, because where there's a will, there's a Goddamn way!

 

CRAZY

 

Wow! Glad to see you made it through that ordeal. Those pics are crazy. It's amazing you made it out of that thing alive, and if your worried about your truck, it can be replaced, you cannot. Take care dude & I hope you make a full recovery!

 

...oh & one question. Just wondering, are those red shotgun shells by the driver seat??

 

Those pictures sent chills down my spine. Im glad youre ok and on the road to recovery. Youre a hardcore badass its good to see the bad times cant keep you down. Stay Strong.

 

holy shit, its been a few months since you posted and i hope your up walking already

 

Just checking back in.

Been a couple months after that horrible accident and you're walking already

That girl you got is def a keeper!

I wish you the best of health and dont worry about that taco till you got your "running Legs." literally

 

Kind of wish the truck held up better.. Scary thinking about the damage to it.

 

Wow! Definitely the worst wrecked taco I've ever seen.
Does anybody know what happened with him? Kinda fell off the grid here. Hope he had a full recovery.

 

OP, Hope you are doing well, you're very fortunate you lived, and I hope you are healing well.

Looks like it.
If it were my truck there'd be a lot more shells scattered everywhere (I keep about 18 in my center console)

 

This is nuts. Glad you made it! Run yet?!

 

wow know its an old thread, but glad you made it out with your life.

 

Wow ur a blessed man. Someone was looking out for u...

 

I just came aross this. I CANNOT believe you're alive after looking at those pictures. You sir are very blessed. You're an inspiration, because most people would be depressed and basically give up, but you're walking again and on your way to getting a new truck. Major props to you dude. Wish you the best in your recovery!

 

what a lucky guy 2 ft they other way and you wouldnt be here today

 

^ In total agreement with this^^^^^

 

It's probably pointless to say that a steel bumper probably would have helped well probably not. Good luck on the recovery

 

Was the trucker okay? Any pictures of his rig?

Glad you're recovering, and it definitely serves as a reminder to always drive safely. I woke up driving 70 through a ditch running parallel to the highway when I was in high school...that was all it took for me.
