Any damage to your tacoma

Previous owner backed into something, so i've got a few small dents and scratches in my rear bumper

 

Last Friday, My mother and I went to different store to find washer and dryer. We went place to place and didn't find what she want. We decide go to the food court at the mall. It was raining and snow, off and on. Anyway after we ate lunch, walk back to my truck, somebody hit and run on my fuckin truck! Just small minimal damage on the rear driver side bumper. Maybe driver didn't pay attention to back up or pull in to park. Nobody leave the note or anything like that. Damn those people! Oh well!

 

When my truck was 6 months old, some moron threw their door open into the rear passenger fender, leaving behind a nice five inch crease in the metal. It was pretty high up, so my guess it was the back door of an SUV, right where it curves to go around the wheel well.

 

I'm sure everyone... or most everyone knows my story, but what the hell. Dropped it off at Toyota of Dallas for some service and it came back like this:

 

I bought my 2006 with a dented rear bumper and left rear fender crease (slight). Also very minor dings here and there (hood, right front fender, passenger door). The only damage I've caused is a few scuffs on the rear fenders from leaning against the truck while unloading the bed. Not really damage but you can see 'em.

 

Just destroyed my radiator, condenser, fan, and shroud going mudding about 30 minutes ago!

Bent the radiator like a taco.

To much speed with the sudden force of water will do some serious damage!

 

Mine got hitted pretty good while it was parked. My insuance took care of everything.......got some mods out of it(painted bumper)

 

couple dents in the side and added a bunch of scratches down both sides this last week....was my baby though before i started offroading it ha

 

well first, i wedged in between a tree and my boys truck in an attempt to not rear end him after he stopped suddenly after going through a mud hole.
result- bent steering knuckle and smashed headlight.
second, i backed into a tree in a parking lot.
result- smashed tailight
ultimately both these incidents worked out for the better cause i got to get new black taillights and headlights faster than i would have if they hadn't been damaged

 

i booted a football today and it went off the side of my foot, over the house and bounced off the roof of my taco. it left a medium sized dent right above the driver side door

 

I was cleaning my week old truck and noticed two small surface scratches on the roof. just above and to the left of the third brake light. It doesn't even really look like a scratch its just a different color than the rest of the body. Maybe it will buff out.

Only thing I can think of is they rubbed it while down/loading it up on the mass delivery trucks. Or maybe someone backed it into a low lying tree branch.

You begin to notice things on your car once you wash/clean it.

 

truck is 5 years old and only a few scratches on the drivers side door!

 

I hit a deer too. but I was doing 75MPH when a smoke it. bottom line that miss up my truck. Now I have a ARB and I love it. and I rolled my taco once too.

 

pics or it didn't happen..

 

1. Was parked at the Starlight Drive In in Atlanta when a Mexican drags the whole right side of "his" van against my front bumper. I had to chas him down and jump in front of him to get him to stop. Got a police report, and a few weeks later the insurance company told me that he gave a false name and the van was stolen. . .

2. My brother drove my truck to school one day because his was broke down, and he puts it in 4-wheel drive for some odd reason, and proceeds to slam the back bumper into his truck, which was about 10 feet behind him and to the left.

3. Drove through some motocross woops, and ripped my receiver plug almost off.

 

Broke the tail light and dented the bumper a little. tail light from a dearler was $250. Found a Toyota dealer selling one for $95 NEW. That worked for me.

 

Lots of tree pinstriping on the passenger side, MAJOR scratches and dings on the back bumper, Front bumper might as well be ripped off...

 

Let's see...got hit by Jeep trying to make a turn across ALL the lanes of traffic and found the side of my truck. 12k in damage later, and she was on the road.

Also, I have messed up the front bumper( major spiderwebbing), dented rocker a bit on drivers side, tore off mud flap(well, in two that is). bunch of scratches, scrapes, etc.

Bottom line: It's a truck, and I use it.

 

The SAME EXACT thing happened to my 2006 Taco about 2 months after I had gotten it. I had it parked on the side of a straight residential road with all the lights on and it was running. I was out of my truck and some jackass comes flying down the road and nails her in the left rear. I was absolutely infuriated.

 

Removed antenna on a tree (replaced by hidden antenna)

Removed rear mud flap on a rock (took the rest of with a screwdriver)

Removed trailer hitch electrical hookup on a rock

Removed first set of Aux reverse lights on a rock

Flattened tailpipe on a rock (then cut it off like I should have in the first place)


Sheared valve stem off on a rock (then ditched the TPMS BS with flexible valve stems like I should have done so in the first place)


Near head on collision with a rock which fled the scene of the accident because it was the rock's fault (OK actually it was a motorcycle).


Got rear ended by a rock (OK, actually a tree which had been drinking, BTW. Luckily had a real bumper so it really did buff out).


Paint all scratched to hell by tiny rocks (dust) with the aid of manzanita bushes

Bent a rear shackle on a rock (replaced by Amortech shackles)

Tore tread lugs of BFG MT's (you guessed it, on rocks)

Did I mention that I blew up a rear ring & pinion on a rock???
