    Exactly. It is amazing that it works so well in the real world.

    Meanwhile, Jeeps are rolling over in testing.

    I can't even count how many wrangler frames we've had to replace, if you look at them the wrong way they twist. Not a good first choice if you want to hit the trails.

    Great candidate to SAS, cheap enough I’d buy it and convert it.

    That's usually the issue with trying to buy totaled Tacomas, the parts are worth so much and in high demand that they always want too much $$$ :mad:

    That is really interesting. But then, that JL frame welding recall was not really shocking for FCA.

    It's brutal, might be the worst side impact on a Tacoma I've seen. It rolled over on the right side as well.
