    Not sure yet, the police report is still pending from the CHP, 4.5 weeks and counting. I will let my attorney take care of those details.

    The UnderCover bed cover will most likely be transferred over to another Tacoma in the next 2 weeks (if I can find a suitable 2010 TRD Off-Road 4x4 Access Cab). If not, I have you first on the list. Email me please.

    Wow! That's really crazy! Sounds like you've kept a good attitude about the whole thing. Glad you're doing ok.

    What do you think the chances of something like that happening are? Like 1/10,000,000? Wrong place at the wrong time I guess.

    Incredible story, very glad you're ok. Thanks for sharing your story. I work in healthcare and can imagine what you went through. Amazing!

    Looks like the old truck was an access cab. I am interested in the back seats, seatbacks, everything back there so I can finally change over my 09 to an 08 style.

    Glad you are Ok man...could have been a lot worse for sure

    Just last month one of my clients called me to file a claim: A commercial truck hauling crates of raw chicken crashed on the opposite side of the freeway from her, sending crates of chicken everywhere. What are the odds of THAT? haha :eek:
