The other driver was in a Subaru. The whole front of his car was gone. I tried to get a pic but the responded officer yelled at me haha
WTF, it happened in a public place! As long as you were physically off the road, there is nothing he can do to stop you from taking a picture.

The other car was still blocking the intersection. Maybe thats why he was pissy.

In Fact, You should be allowed to take pics for use of Insurance Co if they are moving the vehicles and not taking pictures themselves!

So that’s totaled I am guessing?
i hope so for his sake. Frame damage on the car fax means it’ll be tough to sell


glad you’re ok man. The gladiator kept you safe and that’s all that really matters. Your insurance is required to provide pictures of the other claimants in an accident if you request them FYI

Glad you guys are OK.

The upside is you get to get a new gladiator.

Looks like a reason for you to get some new tires!!

J/K, just trying to make light of a shitty situation. I assume everyone is ok if your posting and I hope that is the case for you and all involved!

Will you be purchasing another Gladiator (assuming this one is indeed total like it looks like it is)?

I hate....... and love these posts equally.

All of us on here look at your pictures and think...
Damn, poor guy /girl...
That truck is messed up...
I wish I could help somehow...
Glad everyone is ok....

But the other side of me says,

Fricin' awesome!!!! It looks like that hit was 50 mph and he is telling us everyone inside was ok....
Wow those Gladiators hold up well.....
After a hit like that the people compartment looks untouched...

I am really sorry for you and the loss of your truck, but I am equally happy you bought a Gladiator and are ok, and that today you are able to type and tell us your story from home and not from a hospital bed.... or worse... not at all. Good Luck!
I agree. So glad everyone is ok. My Rubicon JT was hit smack in the driver side rear wheel by a kid running a red light. ZERO body damage but the axle and track bar were both bent. $10K in repairs and back on the road. These trucks are TOUGH!!!

That's NICE to Know-Any Reactions as to How Airbags or safety features worked?

Both front airbags and the drivers side airbag went off during my collision. I recieved a pretty nasty burn on the back of my left arm from the side airbag.
