Sad newbie

[Huckataco]

My 06 lifted TRD off-road taco was totaled by a drunk driver. 168,000 perfect miles. Now prices are much higher. Used to off-road way more than I do now. Now what? I was hoping to get taco that I could live without lifting and new tire\wheel. TRD Pro, maybe but too expensive. SR5 & TRD Off-road? NOT! Gonna have to mod Here I go again research, research, research.

Welcome! Sorry to hear this. Did the drunk driver have insurance? Did you have uninsured motorist on your policy?

 

[Backroader]

That is terrible news. I hope everyone is well and as B-Man asked have adequate insurance coverage. Good luck with the decisions to be made and hope you are back on the road soon!

 

[Huckataco]

Yes they had insurance.

 

[Backroader]

That's a Relief!

 

[B-Man]

Yes they had insurance.

Then an estimate of value to their insurance company and they should issue you a check. Hound them for it until they pay up. They'll drag their feet on purpose.
