Someone decided to make a left hand turn infornt of me and I couldn’t do anything to avoid it. No adjuster yet so have no clue on the price to fix...I’m not happy to say the least but a 2019 sounds good about now.

sucks for your truck, hope you are OK.
 
Dips on the rims/tires...;) Kidding aside, hopefully it is not as bad as it looks...
 
Glad to see she kept you safe! Hopefully it's totaled and you can go get a new one. One of the huge draws for me personally to the 16+ is all the additional safety tech like automated braking just before a collision. Who knows if it would have helped in your situation, but the advances are really nice. Sounds like you should push to get it totaled, buy back/sell to @bjowett and go shopping :)
 
If the frame is damaged, most likely it will be totaled. Hope you are ok.
 
Always a bummer. Hope you're doing okay and looks like she kept you safe. Any pics of the other car?
 
Sorry for your loss.

Do you think an arb bumper would have saved the LC? I bought one and sold it before putting it on but feel soo naked driving my truck and worried about a frontal collision wrecking havoc like in your photo.
 
Sorry to hear, good hing the truck kept you safe and free of harm.

Seeing that the airbags have deployed, insurance will probably declare it totaled.
 
Advanced congrats on the 19. Newer is better.
Lol, already thinking that too.

I’m sure it would of lessened the damage but would of wrecked the other asshat that cut me off. I was only doing less then 30 and steeered hard left so it wasn’t a full on t- bone hit. I’m not thinking it’ll be totaled, but who knows, they still didn’t look at it. But yes the LC did it’s job and I wasn’t hurt.
 
The year and miles of your Land Cruiser will determine if they total it or not I would say it’s probably $25 to $30,000 in damage right there. Most important thing is you walked away that’s great keep us posted.
It’s a 2011 with 84,700 Miles.
 
I'm betting a total. Depends if its a good insurance conpany. Be careful body shop doesnt scam insurance company by reporting less damage.

I'm thinking about getting a TJM bumper, but worried about high speed handling. Feeling bad about selling my arb bumper.

What makes you think handling would be worse with the TJM vs an ARB?
