Thankfully, no one was seriously injured in the accident.

Ouch! thats definitely totalled :( I'm glad she ( and passengers ) were safe! insurance probably totalled it, but if you knew how to weld/fab easily cut the roof off and weld a new one on :D

If it happened off road ins. probably won't cover it unless she had an off road rider on the policy.

It happened on the freeway, on the way to the event. Her insurance is supposed to let her know the value this week. Hopefully she'll be driving a new (used) 3rd gen soon. She and her daughter weren't hurt, and they've still got the 1st gen to wheel around in, so it's not all bad.

Man poor 3rd gen.

All that matters is the ladies are alright!

:dj:

Ouch! good to hear they're all right... hope ins. takes care of them.

Thanks all....Haley was driving and she is kinda "back on the horse".at least up here in the mountains, fwy drive today....
i have not heard from insurance on total or not...they did say we had a guardian angel for sure....
im not sure on whether to part out or just walk away......
please keep your eyes open for a "new" 3rd gen for me...i would really like a 98 or 99 manual....

Conigirl - well, you could buy it back from insurance, and part it out, depending on how much they give you. That TRD grill could go to some of the members here :D haha

Ok my yotatech buds...97 4runner officially totaled, and dave has generously offered his shop and expertise to "part out" this 3rd gen....i will be saving some stuff for the "new" upcoming 3rd gen...it's still out there in the world, but that's what i'm looking for....Sooooo standby ...parts headed your way....!
And again thanks for all the nice thoughts...the crash and the fact that we were able to walk away .....is still with me...and i feel that the 4runner saved our lives....along with the guardian angel working overtime on a friday afternoon on the freeway.....

she gave her life to save yours just like a good yota will...
