    This might sound dumb, but did you test drive it? Also if you are that concerned you could buy an extended warranty.

    i would jump on it..the motor is newer.

    i sold my chevy truck with a dealer replaced motor. buyers lined up when they saw the receipt for the work..(warranty also). i paid for the tranny replacement.

    you wind the clock back alittle bit in my opinion.

    No. This is why I am nervous about it. It is actually quite far away and i'm suppose to go look at it tomorrow. I think I will be fine as long as it has the 60k mile warranty still. I could only imagine if something was wrong toyota coming up with some reason its no longer warranted though
