4Runner vs Explorer
The engine bay looks all smashed up, but at least the passenger area held up quite well. Those with 4th gen will probably even have better protection than us 3rd gen owners.

Doesn't the Exploerer explode on impact? Must have been a special production! I am assuming that is a 3rd gen 4Runner, right? It is very impressive how it held up!

All kidding aside, I hope everybody was ok from that accident.

That's only when the cruise control is on.

weird how the last gen 4Runner and Explorer look so similiar, so many people I know swore the 2 where the same vehicle but those same people thought the Quest was a Ford and that meant Nissan was all rebadged Fords:arrow:
