Bad Day for my Tacoma ** Video added**

Good luck OP. Glad you're ok. This reminds me of my very first post on TW. Dashcam footage and all. Having good insurance always help, but the waiting game sucks no matter what.

Looks like your wiper went off as well. I don't know why but I think they always go off in an impact.

 

Should be able to click the link and view the footage, let me know if it doesn't work.

 

^^^ Holy crap, that video.

 

Ouch.
Trucks a goner, but it did its job.

 

Holy cow, makes me hurt just watching. Hope you both feel better soon.

 

Went and peeked at a 2016 taco today at the dealer, seems only the TRD sport models are available with a manual now? Looked at tundras too, but the 4.6L DC tundra's payload isn't even a 100lbs over my DCSB was, and towing capacity not much more either. Might go look a 2007 tundra DC 4.7 Limitedfor sale privately for what seems like a great price, otherwise I'll try to hunt down a DCSB manual - hopefully a clean '07 or '08 - I really don't want VSC or an air pump of the newer models, and still get the frame with improved semi-gusseted motor mounts.

 

Neck has been very sore at times since yesterday morning, hopefully won't be any long term issue but I don't have a crystal ball, so who knows...

 

Yeah, I have a dash cam for just this reason. Better to protect yourself physically ( the truck) and financially ( dash cam video)

 

Looks like she either was impatient ( just like 90% of the northern NJ drivers here), a poorly skilled driver, or simply blind. Insurance should rule in your favor.

 

Holy shit! My nuts are in my stomach and I knew it was coming! Glad you're OK OP!

 

Ouch! Serious pucker factor everytime, glad you ok OP and hope you feel better soon.

 

Bloody hell. She deserves a throat punch. Glad you are OK, that was one hell of a hit.

 

God bless you landphil, very sorry this happened. Amen!

 

Good job OP getting video! Glad you walked away. Sorry for the girl.

 

Glad both of you are ok. In this case probably lucky for her you didn't have a plate bumper

 

This is exactly why I started using my gopro as my dashcam, it never really gets used anymore...and a lot of the drivers here in FL are horrible. I feel a lot safer knowing I have that camera going. Glad to see your ok, sucks to see the truck in that state

 

Glad you're OK. Hope you make out Ok with insurance company. 2017s out soon.

 

I drive a lifted speedway blue truck and have almost been hit like a dozen times in the 3+ years.... Shits ridiculous

 

So glad there wasn't more serious injury. That was a heavy impact.

 

Good to hear your ok... I would have literally lost my shit on her.... Not for killing my truck but for nearly killing me.... The government needs to start making it a little harder for people who simply can't drive get their license
