Dodge 1 - Toyota 0.....

Glad you're all okay!

this makes me glad that Dodge put Metal Bumpers and a mega strong hitch on the RAMs

Hope it's an easy fix!

The kid said nothing he was shaking up. I m guessing that if I didn't have to reciever then it would have been worst

Cannot tell by the pictures. You probably need the bumper and receiver replaced, did that damage the tailgate. That is the type of crash I need. My bumper and tailgate already dinged up.

thats amazing. a true testimate to dodge. your truck looks like its in pretty good condition. just a new bumper and maybe a reciever and tailgate. and that toyota is pretty far gone, front bumper, hood, grill, radiatior and anything else between the ending and your bumper. glad you and your daughter were ok.

Looking at the pics makes me cringe a little bit. Seeing the bumper curve in and up like that makes me wonder if there is any dmg done to the bed floor. Mind sharing what insurance company they have? (I work in insurnace and always curious to know)
