Man down.

Sucks this is my first post after reading and learning so much from you guys. My awesome 16 limited was totaled out. Some jackass stopped in the middle of four lanes and decides to multi-lane change into a parking lot! As you can tell I locked up the breaks and POW!!!!

Fingers crossed, I get what the truck is worth. I am wanting to replace with a new Taco. Maybe even upgrade to a PRO and be able to give true compare and contrast judgments to the WHOLE Get a PRO no get a NON-PRO and upgrade your self-debates. LOL

 

Hope all are OK ! sucks though .

 

Thanks yeah. Not sure my friend works at the body shop and said the adjuster came out and said totaled. I have not heard from Geico yet. I'm on the fence. The truck was paid off and I don't want to deal with dealers again. Also, I don't know about resale if they don't total it out...
The guy tried to say Im at fault because he had his blinker on. The cop laughed at him....

 

#1 go and see a doctor, even if you don't think you need to


#2 I got full value for my 2016 when it was totaled a month or so ago though I did only have 12,000 km on it at the time. Hope insurance takes care of you

 

Wow, sorry to hear that. Glad your ok. Been through that myself in my 2017 pro. These things hold their value like crazy. Hopefully they total it. If you get a pro, you’ll LOVE the fox suspension! The trd cat-back is cool without being annoying.

Good Luck!

 

Sorry to hear about your truck OP. Here's the pic for anyone who didn't open the .pdf

 

Glad you're still here to make this post.

 

Woooooow. People these days.

Hope insurance takes care of you on your favor.

 

Those dudes all shop at the same shirt store lol. But the dude in he pink is like daaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmnnnnnnn!

 

Major sucks but at least you are OK. A buddy of mine just dealt with the lizard and they wanted to total his out. It was a fight so get a couple of opinions on the total. Also research on what yours is actually worth as we know these have good resale values. Print the comparable's up so you have them when you talk to the adjuster. I am a property adjuster and if you ask 5 adjusters to quote damage you will get 5 different answers
Good Luck

 

Did your airbag go off? The few front end accidents I've seen it hasn't. Wondering if it's endemic, I cantc see it in the photo...

 

That will buff out.

 

Glad you are ok.

 

thanks, did not know about the cat back. does it sound a little louder?

 

no. i said the same thing, I hit my face on the wheel "broke my glasses. LOL" and smashed my knee on the dash. No air bags.

 

Do your own comps and looks for the same model Taco with close to the same miles for sale. That includes dealers. If the insurance company tries to lowball you you will have some info to argue the offer they give.

And NEVER EVER agree to waive any possible injury and NEVER tell the insurance company you feel fine, you will likely feel it in a day or two if you don't now. Good luck!

 

Modern air bag systems are less likely to deploy than older systems. There has to be a variety of values met before they fire.

 

dude in pink is the one that caused the crash. his buddy next to him is a lawer and told me 5 times. lol

 

Glad you are ok.

 

Welcome to TW, really sucks about your Truck, hopefully everyone is ok and you can get a new Truck.
