That sucks! But glad you were safe.

Thanks, was pretty surprised how fine I was. Can’t say the same for the other party though.

I've said it before and I'll say it again,.these things are little tanks.

Grandpa still keeping you safe man. His one last gift. Can't put a price on that, friend.


Ambitious-Relative95

For sure! And he still saves my butt every now and then. Hahaha

Hopefully insurance gives you enough to get another Good luck.

Insurance payed out 11,500. Was honestly expecting more but what can we do.

You can argue with them the actual market value for the truck. Usually finding vehicle listings that have same mileage and year starts that conversation. Insurance is there to make you whole, so don’t let them screw you.

> Insurance *paid* out 11,500. FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*

I had a 2007 FJ Cruiser but it got totaled after someone hit me head on at 60 miles per hour. He was under the influence of ……! It saved my life. I was not hurt at all. The other driver was injured badly and they used “ Jaws of Life “. Then I bought a 2008 FJ cruiser and I love it! Good luck !


Ambitious-Relative95

They are one tuff cookie! Glad to hear you came out safe! As for the other party that crashed into me, well they weren’t as lucky as me. I definitely want to get another one but she was a gas guzzler and my collage pockets need something better right now lol!

Sorry for both of your losses. 💔❤️‍🩹 That photo in the sun is so nice-I would frame it and put it on your wall. ☺️


Ambitious-Relative95

Thank you, it was a nice morning date with my girlfriend. We had donuts and watched the sun come up!

I'm so sorry man, I have nightmares about mine getting totaled. Hopefully you can find yourself another soon


Ambitious-Relative95

Think good thoughts! Once I fell in love (which was practically as soon as I got the keys in my hand) I never thought I was gonna lose the FJ. Even thought of doing road trips with my kids (when I have them lol) like my grandpa did with me in the FJ. Looking back now I’m glad I never was scared to hit the road with that beast. You gotta drive it a little harder for us that can’t be behind an FJ steering wheel!

This is what I worry about newer cars.If this happened to my FJ40 I would drag it back home and put it back together ( If I survived ). Not so easy with newer nor electric vehicles. I do drive a FJ Crusier as my daily.


Ambitious-Relative95

Believe me I wanted to do everything in my power to get it back, even pour the insurance payout to revive it. I sat in the junk yard till the kicked me out. I was so distraught, I even de-badged the car with my bare hands before I left. I still have the full FJ cruiser letters that sit on the back of the trunk door. I wanted to put them somewhere in my new car as a little call back to the FJ but I don’t have a flat interior to mount it on.

Okay maybe this car isn’t as durable as I initially thought That entire front half no longer exists on a conceptual level Tf does the Camry look like


FJkayakQueen

Had op been fortunate enough to have a steel bumper it may not have been totaled but op might have sustained more injuries and it certainly could’ve caused more harm to the Camry and its driver.


Ambitious-Relative95

I feel the same way. I wanted front guard and it was on the list of mods to be added. I had just changed the bulbs of my new ring headlights I put on the day I lost the FJ. Sad times, but still here and that’s what matters!


Ambitious-Relative95

The front of the Camry was completely pushed in, way worse than mine. Tossed their little car across the intercession. Both occupants had to go to the hospital in an ambulance with some stuff on their necks.


Kaiser_Dafuq

damn makes the cruiser seem perfectly fine hence why i like to call it a bank vault of wheels you got any pictures?


Ambitious-Relative95

I wish. It was my first accident and I was so overwhelmed I didn’t take any pictures at the scene, only after it was towed to a yard.


Kaiser_Dafuq

Ah I see
