New game Is it totaled?

When airbags start going off it usually means the crunch zones have started to do their job and collapse as intended. With the structural Frame also being bent and 6 airbags going off I'm betting its Total loss and if not get another opinion. I myself would not want it back. Just my opinion and glad everyone is ok.

 

OP, sounds like you are okay and that is what is important. I am a big believer in Toyota safety. Check out this accident that happened in Portland this week. A Toyota Avalon was going the wrong way on I-5 and hit a semi head on. A later story said both people in the Avalon were not wearing seat belts and it is amazing nobody died. First link has a close up picture of the Avalon and second link has follow up information.

Because that’s how it works. I evaluate risks for a living. I also spend time in court for things and know how that process works. Typically everyone with any possible liability is sued. While I don’t agree with it, that’s the way it is done. I don’t really care if you believe it or not, you are free to your own opinions on the internet.

 

Yah, looks totaled to me. Sorry.

Mine did not look much different than yours when I wrecked it in early December. If there was any good time to total mine, it was now. The insurance company gave me essentially what I paid for it four years earlier, and that was with the $1K deductible subtracted.

You didn't indicate the year, but mine was 2016. Got $34K and had paid a little less than that four years ago.

Also, it has been a strain without my own vehicle this whole time! Fortunately, I have a friend who lent me his truck off and on until my new one arrives. Hopefully sooner than mid-February when it's supposed to come.

 

Those damned 1st Genner's and 2nd Genner's are so jealous of our 3rd Gen masterpieces, they have started taking them out one at a time!!! That is some dirty pool there!!

 

My guess it’s totaled.

 

sorry you crashed your brand new truck.

 

That or the Russians were involved

Are you really though? Do you realize that with every totaled Taco, the value of our trucks goes up a few cents

 

lol, I was just asking questions on why, my man. Not sure what that last sentence is all about.

 

What I want to know is what kind of magnet Toyota uses that only attracts Tacomas to hit Tacomas. I feel there is a conspiracy here. I would have gone straight to 7/11 and bought power ball. You chances of hitting your same model vehicle on a highway is pretty low.

 

Update it was totaled, I negotiated $50k settlement, with 2800miles on it. That wasn’t the first offer, it was the second. Pretty happy with how a crappy situation turned out. Don’t know how easy a DCLB will be to replace but I can wait for the right one.

 

See post number 68, did you negotiate to get the drivers seat for me?

 

Wasn’t in best shape after the airbag deployment. Lol

 

I just want the base to convert my current seat.

 

Did they say what the salvage value is if you wanted to buy the truck?

 

Yep, I was guessing it was totaled. Glad you were not hurt. Hopefully $50k will get you a replacement!

 

50k in this market will get him a 1996 Chevy s10, 2wd.

 

Passenger side is totaled driver side looks good to go.
