I just got rear ended by a damn Taco! Everyone is okay. My son and I got a little whiplash. I filed with my insurance and will get it checked out ASAP. My untrained eye doesn’t see much damage. We all know the Mav, so something could be lurking underneath.

It's an old joke.
-HOWEVER-
I think what the OP means is he was rear-ended by a Toyota Tacoma(Taco for short).
Most likely the towbar took the brunt of it.
EDIT: OP just posted a picture of his Maverick and his finger.
Damage looks very slight.

Anything visible on the Taco?

I keep staring at the photo... I don't even see a point of impact on anything? What am I missing?
For sure. I’m not taking any chances though. He said he hit the hitch.

Left side of bumper might be pushed in slightly, look at the panel under the tail light & bumper. - May just be camera angle, but the gap looks a bit off.

There’s some light scratches on that part. I admit that there is not much damage, but I had my family in the car with my kid in a car seat. No way I’m not filing a claim.
