My Tundra Got Totaled

Unfortunately, I officially got the word that my 17 Tundra is totaled. I was rear ended and the damage was around $26k to fix; new bed, frame, etc. I put a lot of time and effort into that truck, so naturally I’m angry about the whole situation. But the truck did its job and took the brunt of the impact and no one was hurt. Went and got all my stuff off of it yesterday, so hopefully I can find another good 2.5 Gen to put these mods on.

 

Sorry OP

 

That’s sucks I know the feeling. But most important no one got hurt. Hopefully you’ll find Another one you like.

 

Happy to here no one was hurt!

 

So sorry man. Fingers crossed you find and even better one.

 

I'm sorry for your loss. That is my favorite color Toyota makes. I plan on painting my 66' Mustang the same color when I am done with the body work.

I fear the same situation you are in. I have put a ton of work/mods into my 07' and if someone ever hits me hard (especially because of it being 15 years old) it will most likely total out. I don't look forward to all the work getting them off. Did you do it at the tow/impound yard or did you have it towed to your residence to make it easier?

 

RIP....

Hopefully the person who whacked your truck had insurance.

 

So sorry to hear about this! I hope the other guy's insurance makes you whole.

 

I had to do it in the parking lot of the body shop. I asked if I could take it since it was driveable and I only live a couple miles from the shop, but they said it’s too much liability. Which I get. So I just loaded all my tools and a buddy helped me get all my stuff.

 

Yes, we both have the same insurance, so luckily that hasn’t been an issue.

 

Well that’s sucks. Sorry to hear about it

 

Sorry for your loss.

 

Sorry man. Glad everyone’s ok. You’ll make the next one cool FAST.

 

Can we go grab the tires / wheels / steps / etc etc at about 3 am?

It looked really good!

You will love your next one as much or more.

 

Already got them! Luckily I had kept most of my oem parts so it was an easy swap.

 

That sucks...fingers crossed your search for a new truck is quick, easy, and hopefully painless. Glad your alright.

 

But a 1st Gen, sell me the parts. Win win

 

That sux bro

 

Got my insurance payout so I’m starting to shop. Man used prices are still crazy.

 

I’m sorry this happened. Being in a accident sucks to say the least.

Do you have any pictures of your truck after the accident?

 

That sucks, sorry to hear that…..and it was the fastest color tundra they make. Glad to hear you weren’t hurt.

 

Sorry man! Its kind of an awful time for that to happen too, every new vehicle is so damned expensive and unavailable. Glad everyone is okay though.

Let me guess, the person who hit you was playing on their phone.

 

Sorry to hear that, glad everyone was OK. Good luck in the search

 

Nope, they were drunk.

 

Crazy that totaled the truck

 

What a shame man, glad you and the other occupant are ok. Picture certainly doesn't do the damage justice. Good luck finding another ride for all your mods.

 

I feel your pain. I'm in the same boat with my truck, I was rear ended a little over a month ago. Still have two weeks to go until it gets into the body shop. Mine looks worse than yours, I really hope they don't total it out. Although you were hit directly, mine was swiped. I hope you are able to find a great replacement.
