God is giving you a chance to get to know him. Be sure you take this opportunity to make sure you do. Glad you’re safe.

Sweet Jesus! (and no, I'm not religious)

Glad you are good. The truck definitely did its job! Pour out a little liquor for that Tacoma.

Thank you! Really heartbroken about my truck, though. But that can be replaced.

As others have already said, I am very happy to know you are alive and well overall, though I imagine you’ll be pretty sore over the next few days at least.

if it’s worth anything at all, I’ve been in a very similar situation (albeit a sedan and not a truck) and yes it’s a bummer to total your new vehicle, but in the grand scheme of things you walked away, are alive, and as you stated, your truck is replaceable.

That looks like a nasty accident my friend. And the safety systems did their job which is not a surprise to me, but great news for all of us none-the-less.

Accidents are accidents., and that’s what insurance is for. I don’t think it matters whose fault it was insofar as it’s a total bummer to total your truck either way. But I agree with Slappy (who I met briefly and is a good dude… thank you for the wheel Slappy), if it wasn’t your fault get a lawyer. If it was I think your insurance will mostly handle it all behind the scenes for you. But I’m no expert so definitely I’d say do some research. Maybe get a lawyer consult either way?

Again for what it’s worth, if anything at all.. really sorry about the accident.

Glad you’re ok. Always get another truck.

Glad you're okay man, definitely could've been worse indeed. That little damage hitting a Dodge Ram is actually quite impressive. Definitely makes me feel a little safer seeing this.

Wow. So glad that you're ok following such a bad collision.

Glad that you are okay!

Happy to hear that the truck did its job. Sad to see such a young Taco on its side like that but more importantly… you’re alive. Cheers to that.

Thank heavens you survived. God speed your recovery.

Glad you are ok man! For a head on collision that truck held up.

So this happened tonight! My 7000-miles old Tacoma TRD Offroad suffered a head-on collision with a Dodge Ram that resulted in my beloved Tacoma landing on its side. The Dodge was going quite fast when it occurred.

Do you have any information as to how fast both the other driver, and yourself were traveling at the time of impact? Very curious. None the less, pre your comments -- you walked away. People have died from less of an impact, so I'd consider this a very fortunate experience despite the crash. None the less, hopefully you'll be feeling well soon. That's quite a shock to the body, of course.

Glad you’re okay. And comforting to know our trucks protect us well.


@Photo_Nerd on Artesia? You from that area?

Yeah. This was actually right outside my apartment. I was turning into our parking lot, and the other person ran the red light. You know the area here?

glad to see you able to walk away from that .
welp 1st get a lawyer , go see Your doctor then
start looking for a new Tacoma .
How's the other guy ?

The other truck was two people. I kept asking the EMTs if they were ok, and they kept telling me they were going to be fine. That’s all I know for now.
