Exclamation Bye Bye FJ, TOTALED

I'm new here, just thought someone might like to see photos of a TOTALED FJ Cruiser. I am also curious why more airbags didn't deploy since the initial impact was at 60mph.

I have more photos but can' post the link until after 4 posts, so if interested let me know and I can send you the link. Pretty interesting.

Re: Bye Bye FJ, TOTALED

I'd like to see how the seats look and how the people in it look. I'm happy to have my FJ destroyed and only certain airbags deploy if I come out unscathed.

Re: Bye Bye FJ, TOTALED

certain airbags only come out based on the impact. for instance, in a certain frontal impact, the side airbags wont deploy and blindside you giving you a concusion.

Re: Bye Bye FJ, TOTALED

No injuries, not sure how or why but we are thankful. The first picture is of the backseat where my 11 month old son was sitting, spotless. The second picture is of the front passenger seat, not pretty but still no injuries.

Re: Bye Bye FJ, TOTALED

Vehicles are replaceable, people are not

Good to know everyone is ok!
