This is from the previous thread.



The whole drivers side has this grinding from where I was sliding with 2 wheels up on the side of the truck






This is what I am getting tomorrow morning though - way better than what I had.

Thats a nice truck you are going to buy. Where is it located. I swear I saw it on craigslist or something out here in Chicago. I just bought the same kind of Ex-cab. Im sorry to hear abou tthe loss of your truck, but congrats on the new find. I would just take everything off or the wreck that you can use. Let me know if you want me to keep an eye out for parts or if you are going to part out the wreck.

Wow, the pole definitely won that fight. That truck is done.

A pole did that at 30mph? Is that the Special Made-of-Tin Edition toyota pickup?

No it's a "I hit an immovable pole" which is why it is so bad compared to cars that will move.

I think It will buff out...but seriously, that thing looks like my sisters camry after she got hit by a drunk driver on the highway head on, both going 70+mph!!



Saved her life though!

Glad you are okay? Anything injured on you?

If that is your wife and kids, glad for you that it was only 30mph.

there would of been less damge if you hit the frame, the frame still looked pretty intacted in the front.

Must've been one hell of a pole. That sucks man, at least you're getting a nice truck to replace it with tho

Jay351

Wow! Thems some damage

Well we can all thanks the yota for taking care of her owner till the bitter end! New yota FTW

Around here, if you hit a pole like that, the city will bill you to replace it.

Just ask my brother

That pole will cost me about 1200 bucks. Insurance will cover it though. Drove the new truck, way more power with the same engine? I must have has some serious issues with power because this truck is pulling small hills on the high way in 5th gear.

This is an extended cab deluxe - did these come with the tach clusteR?

That was my older sister and my kids.

This is my wife and me.

This is my daughter

And my boy who loves my trucks, a next generation Yotatecher
