RIP 4runner????Maybe

I guess I just want a place to vent out. This morning my 4runner was totalled, my girlfriend rolled my Runner over in a clover leaf turn onto a highway. SEAT BELTS SAVE LIVES, and this is just another example. The messed up thing is that I only had parking insurance on the Runner and she still took the truck. You know woman they never listen, and I swear the stats are wrong, women are the craziest drivers. Then she had the BALLS, or whatever, to blame it on the truck. She started saying the truck was unsafe, it was the tires, blah blah blah,its not her fault. I am glad she made it out with no injuries, but now I have a still making payments, roof dented, dead runner in my garage. I am not even going to try to report this to my insurance. So if any of you guys have a non-dented roof and body parts shoot me a pm. I am going to have to rebuild the 4runner by myself from my own pockets, which are filled with lint. I guess I'm OK, I feel better now, until I go back into my garage. Its not crazy damaged, but its enough to make a big dent in my pocket, kinda like the roof now. I post up some pics when I...stop crying... I mean, have the courage. I think I need to go : more. Thanks for listening

Takes a mature person to total someone's car then not own up to it.

Good luck fixing it!

Is it creased? If it's a pretty smooth dent, those paintless removal places may be able to do wonders...

Toyota builds some damn tuff trucks. I notice after I stopped :cry: that even though it rolled over there was not much that was damaged. I think the tow truck driver damaged it more. For some smart reason the tow truck driver thought it was smart to flip my truck right side up with my fuel lines. Now I have to rig up new fuel lines also. Well, here are some pics that I just took quickly. Considered that it rolled over, the damaged is pretty minimal. I know that I need a new roof panel, windshield, maybe a fender or two, but the glass in the two front doors are ok. The top of the door frames are a bit bent but nothing a autobody tool, 20lb sledge hammer, can't fix. Heres the pics enjoy. OK back to

need to redo the pics. Sounds like she should be an ex-girlfriend by now. Take her to court for the damages if she refuses to pay up. If she has insurance on a vehicle, it should cover yours too.
