Unhappy =(



My BABY!!!! =(

This one's going to be spendy....

In short... legal U-turn, clear... go... some foreign non english speaking a$$ bang, ran forced me into 2 other cars.... bastard didnt even slow down.... I get a 130$ ticket, and 500$ deduct... and if the damage to all 4 (including mine) vehicles is over 25K, I have to pay it...

If you wanna see more carnage... www.djducky.com under gallery.

So far.... from what I surveyed... my front is screwed... my steering wheel is cock eyed, my airbox is shattered, my A/C was leaking... the a/c radiator is hit... my passenger door wont open without hitting, my rear tailight is damaged... with some dents back there...

BUT!!!

My SAWs, and BFG mud terrains... all look good... so far.... oh yea... and no one was hurt... in that order... just kidding...

Oh yea.. and I drove it from Issaquah to Marysville with only some vibrations... and a weird steering wheel..

WHOA!!!!

Glad you're OK, that really sucks about the 4Runner.

So the A$$ bang (nice), did he t-bone you, and is that what sent you in to the other cars, or did you swerve?

Icing on the cake is the stupid citation. What in the world did you get a ticket for, if it was a legal u-turn? Did the other guy get a ticket too??

Ducky,

Sorry man! :cry: Those pics look harsh! Im glad to hear that everybody came out of it alright. Did the accident happen in Issaquah? I was almost in an accident their... I swear it must be the drivers their. Anyways, good to hear those tires survived! Hope you get through the situation alright. Again, glad to hear that you are okay. Peace.

I got a ticket for "unsafe u-turn"

and no he didnt get a ticket... he didnt even speak english... prolley no insurance... but I should speculate...

no, I was mid turn, and he plowed right into me, my vehicle was pushed into the other vehicles...

That totally sucks, but remember the Runner can be repaired, and everyone is OK.

Stay positive!

Oh man! That totally sucks! And you've only had it now for what? 4 months? I can't imagine how that feels. I have never (knock wood) wrecked one of my vehicles. I'm sick just looking at your's!

Dude I feel for you man. That really sucks. At least everyone was ok.

I hope your rig looks like it did before the wreck.

oh man that sucks ass ducky. at least you have some good photos there for insurance purposes. so where did the guy who hit you come from? i was in issaquah today. i don't like that place. and i'd have to agree that its the drivers there. hope you don't get a lot of trouble from this and your rig gets fixed.

Okay, that little car would have had to be hauling ass to hit you hard enough to push you into another car. AND do that much damage? How fast was he going. It looked like that was a 25 or 35mph zone, right?

Get a TJM or ARB and you will never have that kind of damage again.

Ducky,

Which car hit you? I'm assuming the truck.
