Here's a couple pics from a few days ago. Nobody was seriously hurt. 4Runner tboned F350, appears Ford was trying to cross the highway and didnt see the Runner.
Drive safe.

Wow - there's like nothing left of that front end!
Glad to hear everyone's okay - was it the Ford or the Toyota driver that was at fault?

 

Im pretty sure it was the ford drivers fault by the way he described it.

 

sounds like its the ford driver.

thats crazy.

 

ouch!!!!

good to hear nobody was seriously injured cuz that looks really bad.

looks like that 4runner is going straight to the parts depot.

 

It's going to the "junkyard in the sky". He should have had the bumper like in the other post, 4runner vs towncar. I think it was an arb or something....

 

LC vs. towncar

 

Looks like it did what Toyota designed it to do. The passenger compartment didn't collapse so that's good!

 

Good that nobody got injured, especially if it was at high speed. Modern vehicles are so much better in accidents, at least the 4Runner absorbed the impact instead of the people. If you notice on both the Runner and Ford the windshields are still intact which is normally a very good sign (especially for frontal impact) how well the passenger compartment held up.

 

From what I saw, it was the Ford's fault. It took a while to sweep up all the plastic pieces from the Runner. It was 103 that day. Heat+Turnouts=schweaty. The drivers went to the hospital out of percaution, but there were no obvious injuries. I imagine he was sore in the morning.

 

Hmmmm.... Looks like a good parts source to me... Wonder if it was a V6 or a V8 ? Somebody follow that tow-truck !

Glad to hear nobody got seriously hurt, tho...

Thats what I was thinking while I was cleaning up the wreck. I kept looking at those wheels
