Sorry that happened. Glad you're ok and back on wheels though. Just this morning, I had a driver start to squirt out of a side street and headed right into my fishing vehicle. She stopped in time, but gave another reminder that it's a jungle out there.
 
So, this sucked!
The other driver, even older than me, ran a stop sign and totaled my beloved Tundra...2010, with 250,000 miles. The other driver got a ticket. I was pleasantly surprised that her insurance company gave almost $10,000 as a settlement. I'm still devastated, though. I loved that truck.

I had my Tundra totally set up for camping and fishing. Here it is during better days.

I ended up getting a new Tacoma TRD Off-road, with a 6 ft bed.
I already have a camper shell and lift kit on order.
I went with a slightly smaller truck, because I was getting a bit tired of driving a fullsize truck as my everyday driver. We'll have to see how it does camping.

Sorry to hear it man. But glad you’re okay. Congrats on the Tacoma, it’s a beaut. I love mine. Mines a 3rd gen AC long bed. Here’s to quick fish mojo and memories on the new ride.
 
@myt1 , I am sorry for your loss there buddy. Other than trips that I saw you were using a motorcycle for I am aware of your camper bed Tacoma. Going forward never trust stop signs, 45 years and just shy of 280,000 miles on motorcycles taught me that. Of course we want to see the new setup when you have it ready to roll (y)
