sooo pissed!!! - Toyota Tundra Photo Gallery

driving home from school i get stopped by a traffic light so i stop...duh... i look into my rear view and i see this chevy just barreling towards me!! apparently he wasn't paying attention so when he does notice me its too late for him to stop, so he tries to switch lanes to his right...but its too late, he clips my back corner doing about 70-80 (thats kms...i'm canadian...)!! the kicker here is that he REALLY musta no been paying attention cuz then he broadsides a civic in the right lane also!!

i'm so choked that this happened!! my truck's only like seven weeks old... now it's right f**ked.... and yeah, his insurance will cover it but she's damaged goods now gents.... just won't be pristine from the factory....

in a couple of the pics, you can see where the box actually smacked the cab and left scuffs and chipped the paint... buddy boy hit me hard... the side view says it all!!

what's the criteria for the insurance companies to consider it a write off?

You need to make sure your frame isn't tweaked. If it is, there is a lot better chance of it being considered "totaled" because that repair is extremely expensive, almost everything has to be torn apert to repair frame damage.

Glad you are ok.

You would think that if there is any damage to the frame, which I'm sure there is, then it would be considered totalled since it would put your safety in jeopardy.

That's a shame bro! I'll tell you I've been through that. It was 1999 and I just got my 2000 SR5 4WD V8 Tundra and I was GEEKED! I was cruisin it to work one morning on a local LA freeway when traffic came to a complete stop. My first reaction was to look into the rearview mirror, I saw nothing and as I was looking away something cought my eye so I looked back into the mirror just in time to see this dude asleep behind the wheel headin right for me. WHAMMMMMMMMMO! Sent me flyin! Needless to say the truck was totaled. In one fraction of a second looking through my rearview mirror I could actually see this dumb ass sleeping as he was mocking twards me. Imagine waking up from that. Anyway got a new Tundra so this is actually my third Tundra. Didn't mean to ramble on bro just thought it would make you feel a little better.

Hate to say it but they won't total it even if the frame's bent. Once its fixed he will eventually forget it ever happened. My second 2000 Tundra got the exact damage on the same side. Fixed it as good as new.
