Inner and outer fenders, radiator support, radiator, AC condenser coil, hood, one body mount, clutch fan assembly, battery, tray, fuse box and all the obvious rest of the front end. And driver door needed paint.
I snapped a pic when it happened and then at the shop about a month ago when it was only partially disassembled and waiting for parts.

 

I was gonna wait until I got it back and then post before/after pics.
This better not jinx me.
Like get a call that if fell off the lift while tightening the last screw.

 

I'm surprised they didn't total it

 

No air bags and no damage to anything major. Totally fixable. It looked a lot worse than it actually was. Plus I think repairs have to be 50-75% the value of the vehicle to call it. I'm not really sure what the threshold is.
I'm glad it's getting fixed. Low mileage longbed. Last year of the 2.5 gens. I really didn't want to go through trying to find one again. Probably never find one again at this point.

 

Yeah, good point.

Thinking about upgrading your brakes now?

 

Nah! Vegas was the last time I threw up, hopefully for a long time!

 

I'm not even sure he kissed the frame, so no way they would total it. Hell...I've seen far more buggered up trucks get patched up in this forum.

Hopefully they get evrything needed to button it up quick. Wonder why it took so long yo get parts. The supply chains aren't that bad these days.

 

Thinking about modding in some tractor trailer air brakes and a hydraulic spike that shoots into the road. I wanna just touch the pedal and have my teeth fly out of my head.

Seriously though, no vehicle could've stopped. I had 2 car legths in front of me at around 55 and the retard in the right lane just cut in front of me with no warning and for no apparent reason. That wasn't the problem. Before I could finish calling him a motherfucker, 2 cars ahead slammed their brakes to a complete stop. Everyone smashed into the person in front of them.
I probably could've stopped in time had fucktard not cut in front of me right at that moment.

 

No dashcam right?

 

It took almost 2 months for the radiator support to come in. It has to be welded in, so it had to be a new factory part from Toyota. Everything else came in within a couple weeks of them having it.
They told me one customer waited 8 months for a headlight. So I made out okay I guess.

 

No. And I had full plans on getting one too. Shoulda been the first thing I bought when I got it.

 

I think the body shops are just being slow AF still... seems like everyone's work ethic is way down

 

Wanna trade for a month?

 

Too bad, that could have maybe saved you a ticket/insurance claim.

 

Went out to the liquor store and grocery a bit ago, and man is this heat brutal. Not even the hottest part of the day yet, and already has me hiding in my office under an A/C vent and ceiling fan. Enough of this already - I want some cooler weather.

 

I get up around 8 and the FIRST thing I do is walk the dog.
Got to get out there before the sidewalks heat up..

 

Wow, what a dickhead.

 

Bring a glove?

We're going to a Ranger game next Sunday.
First time at the new ballpark..

 

Sports ball!

 

What's a footling??

Is that one of those things that @TaquitoBandito fetishes over

 

Smoker is good. I can see where the issue was but it is acting fine now. Think there was just a fluke and it’s gone so no problem.

Sure as hell going to make sure this thing is far away from the house and cars from now on.

My bank account breaths a sigh of relief

 

Well that's good news, if slightly ominous.

 

It is definitely on its last leg. I’ll be happy if it lasts thru the holidays
