    Monday I got rear ended at intersection, I stopped for an ambulance and got hit pretty hard.

    I know the frame is bent where the bumper and hitch mount. And I know the bed itself has a wave in it.

    Can someone post up a pic of where their frame curves up behind the bed so I can compare?

    Getting estimates and such on Monday.

    Gross. Looks like over all to be about an inch off. That frame is toast. If insurance is a problem, you might be able to find a frame shop that could pull it.

    Really sucks man.

    If the guy that hit you is insured go to a Toyota Collision center. They use only OEM parts and will bring it back to factory specs. I had a Toyota that was side swiped and brought it to a TCC. The work was flawless.

    Considering how many frames they do/have done, I am hoping I get a new one. My backing is that you can't replace this truck very easy, 116k 2009 would go for decent money.

    That frame is toast. The bed is toast and I’m betting the bed smacked the back of the cab. I hate to tell you, but for a 2009, it’s totaled.

    I know the bed is toast, the driver side panel is already replaced once. I dont see any damage to the cab.

    Also debating on if I wanna buy it back. I'll see Monday
