Man I saw you post on Instagram about the bimbo in the Escalade hitting your new truck and that you had lost the runner, so I had to come see... I'm angry for you, if that makes sense. I'm glad you are alive and in relatively good condition. How scary that must have been for the Mrs. -that is one of my biggest fears is getting that phone call that my wife has been in a terrible accident... I wish the best for you with a speedy recovery and as stress free as possible working with the insurance company's... I'll miss your runner. This summer we all need to go camping, I'll make the trip. -oh and hit me up if you are wanting some things for your new truck, I may or may not have a connection.

I just saw this - so incredibly sad but quite a relief at the same time that you're okay and the 4R did its job ultimately. This is why we love and build these, because we have a lot of faith that they will hopefully protect us enough when the time comes. Thankful you're okay. I've always enjoyed this really clean build and following your photos on IG.
Best wishes going forward, sir!

Does anyone in a used Escalade have insurance? :yo:

I've been off T4R recently and somehow missed the accident- glad you're okay, that's an incredible amount of damage! I also saw the Instagram post today, it's really unfortunate that this parking lot accident happened so soon after your other one. Hope all works out soon and you're back to building some cool things :thumb:

Sorry [MENTION=82154]GSPRunner[/MENTION] to hear about your recent loss.. Glad you made it out to be able to tell this story.
Did anyone do investigation on why it started fire? I mean, I can imagine gas spewed and a spark lit it, but just curious.
Looking forward to seeing the new Taco build. Post up a link to a build page when you get one going!
Good luck and hope you had a speedy recovery.

Ready to ditch that goofy auto Taco and come back to us yet? That thing isn't you man. There is a 4runner sitting somewhere now, with a sad face, waiting, waiting to meet you and have another life. A better life! You will both be happier!
What do ya say?

Awe man. I'm sure detailing Alex's rig didn't help heal any wounds.

This part wasn't here earlier, you must have edited it in. I thought the exact same thing when I read your post though.
Do you plan to stick with the Taco or find a new rig to build GSP?

I don't really have anything against Tacos. I wouldn't mind having one, but I have heard weird things about their auto transmissions. I am sure that whatever you choose to build will come out about as sweet as your 4runner was for sure though. I can't wait to see where you end up.
