Rolled my yota

so I'm driving down a dirt road and a deer runs in front of me so i swerve to miss it and i lost control and my front tire goes into a ditch and then rolls onto its side and thats it. so the way it rolled was like this driver side tire first hit the ditch and then the bumper dug in on other side of the ditch and then rolled. there is absolutely no damage besides a few dents on the driver side but not even the mirror was broken. i had help to tip it back on all fours and then started her right up. locked the hubs and slapped her in 4 low and bam back on the road. before i did any thing else i gave a really good look over and still nothing but there was oil dripping on the driver side but not coming from the engine but from the air filter box. for sum reason the air filter was covered in oil and the bottom of the box had oil in it too. when i started to drive it and the steering wheel isn't pointing straight its pointing towards the left side. i took the valve cover cap off to look in side idk why but did and inside of the cap looks like some anti freeze got inside of it. iv never rolled a car before so i don't what to expect. but she runs good idle good and steers good. honesty i can not explain how appalled i am that nothing serious happened. i wish i had taken a picture of her on her side but i didn't think of it at the time.

Dang! Have to clean a stain out of those pants? Man pray to the car gods nothing serious happened to that motor!(never heard of oil in the intake before) But hey it started right up...thats a yota for ya. At least you didnt smack the deer and be out of a car though. Take a plunger to those dents to get them out :biggrin1:
