There's really something wrong with me...

So, I'm reading this news story and my first thought is, "That's the exact bumper that I need for my truck. It's the right color and everything."

Same thing I would have thought, if I was looking for that bumper.

Yeah, I have thought similar things many times when looking at wrecks.

Well... as long as you didn't go over and ask "are ya done with that?"

It is bad form to start parting it out before the wrecker comes

My first thought was

"That truck looks like it's upside down"

my first thought when seeing that pic was "why is that one fireman choking that guy, and why did that other fireman wrestle that other person to the ground?"

My first thought was this.

"Hey, the truck missed the overhead signage. That's a break for the DOT guys there."

That's a natural reaction. Women do that to us all the time. They cant help themselves.

Ya know, that tailgate isn't in bad shape either.

I also noticed that. If it's 2006 or newer, it has the factory reinforcements. I think I'm going to try to find this truck.

Tires look newer too.

I wonder what size?

The truck will probably wind up on Copart.

My first thought was "Hey, is that a Lightning?" Followed by "no, can't be, the mudflaps say 4x4"

It's a 2005+ Toyota Tacoma.

Try watching a reasonably straight car you would have happily paid $500 for as a parts donor go under the wheels of a monster truck at the local county fair.

I spent quite a while looking for the bumper sticker you were talking about before I realized...
