Congrats. You take the "WOW THAT SUCKS" prize of 2008.

IS it driveable? It looks like all the cheap crap broke (Yes, Toyota puts cheap crap on their stuff like everyone else) but the important parts look in tact.

Ouch! And not for the deer. Glad nothing looks too major though. Liked the headlights - looks like you had done some upgrading.

I did crack one and broke the other. Allstate asked me and stated they would go on ebay and buy a pair but I said no. Just put on the originals. I prefer the HID's than Halo's. HID's put otu more light. It did take out the radiator, tranny oil cooler, A/C dryer, frame members which are made to collapse and take the hit. Fan shroud, bumper cover, grill, Dented hood and pushed in driver front fender. That's the major parts. Didn't kill the deer, just took off a hind leg. Deputy had to put it down. 7 point buck about 110lbs. I slowed from 70 mph the speed limit to 35 mph when I hit it. The deer flew about 20 ft and landed in the median. I drove about 50 ft to a crossover in the median to check and when I stopped the steam came up and I knew to leave it where it stood not to push it. Yes I do have some mods on mine. Hellwig Anti Sway Bar, AFE CAI, Borla Pro XS complete duels, Painted disks, Did have painted grill and bottom bumper, TRD shifter, Tundra all weather mats, Extang Black Max tonneau soft cover, Herculiner, Samsung MP3 along with XM.
