What has your 3rd Gen prevailed over?

[PitbullRescuer]

Dumb thread but what the hell, right?

I'm driving home today, doing about 65 or so on I76 in Philly. A piece of plywood about 4x4 (looked like an 8 ft sheet had been cut in half) comes flying up out of a pick up truck bed and starts coming at me like a kite standing straight up. I had nowhere to go as there was a car next to me in one lane and a concrete barrier in the other. I nailed it with the left front corner of my truck, sounded like a gun shot, it literally splintered everywhere.

If you know anything about Philly, almost nobody has insurance and I was just east of the Girard Ave exit so there was really no point in chasing the guy down. So I get off of I76 about 3 miles later, pull over to asses the damage. Nothing! No cracked lenses, no dented bumper, no dented or creased fender, not a damn thing. If I had been in my 540 I can only image what damage this would've done.

I love these 3rd Gens, they're tanks.

What has your 3rd Gen made it's b*tch?

A GMC Yukon. It rear ended me and my 3rd gen did twice the damage to it then I received.

Trailer hitch F'd up their Grille/headlights/bumper/hood/etc.. twice.


It still has a bit of blue and red paint from each car, lol. I'm never taking that thing off!

Coming down from big bear some rocks came rolling down the hillside and i couldn't stop in time or swerve out of the way and happened to drive right over about a basketball sized rock at maybe 15-20 mph. Didn't do any damage to my tires or suspension.

And also the girl that rear ended me on my freeway. Smashed her car under my rear bumper. Messed up my bumper pretty good but smashed up her whole front end and hood. And that pretty much paid to make my truck look the way it does now.

Well during a dumb snow wheeling trip gone wrong, I plowed into the side of my friends jeep after she lost controlled and went sideways. It sent me into the snow bank and I flipped. Jeep took $5k to fix, mine required a $50 allignment after I rolled it back over and drove it home. So I guess I prevailed over that snow bank and jeep, although I'm not too proud of it.

All my friends drive full size diesels, and we haul a TON of firewood on our days off. Sometimes they tell me to sell the jap mobile and get a truck. But who is there to pull them out when they get stuck?...Ford 0, Toyota 1.

 

[NOT ME OR SOMEBODY]

A coyote

I had a coyote run in front of me.
He didn't fare too well, 4Runner won that one.

Honda civic in the front (I believe it was an insurance scam)
I rear ended them and broke 1 hella THAT'S ALL. Their Honda was crushed in like a fat boy sat on it!

And some girl rear ended me, the runner inserted his hitch into her car cracking her rad and front bumper. Thankfully she just managed to tap my bumper.

And a tree but that one didnt go to well /,:

Dude! That's a great way to work on your truck without a lift! Idea time. =p

Wasn't in my 4runner, but trailer hitches are the best collision insurance you can buy. Got rear-ended in my truck by a chick texting in heavy traffic, saw it coming in my mirror and had just enough time to take my foot off the brake-smashed the heck out of her grill and radiator, and stuffed her hood down into and around her engine. My hitch had a couple little flecks of red paint on it...glad my runner has a hitch too...
