    Just got the call today that my 2008 Tacoma was approved for a new frame! I'm near the top of the list so should be in the next month or two. This is awesome! I haven't even owned it for a month! LOL!

    dk what he paid but i bet he could get a really nice truck with a perfectly good frame for the same price. and i also don't know how extensive the frame recall is. Just personally I would get rid of it and start clean. you can say I'am a bit weird when it comes to my cars..

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Enjoy your new frame and roll on down the road! Nice!

    Okay "you're a bit weird when it comes to your cars"

    Explain how a truck with a 10 year old frame is somehow better than one with a brand new frame.

    He'll have a new frame. And anything else that has to be replaced due to damage from being seized to the frame.

    It's a screaming deal.

    It could be very difficult to find a similar unmolested sample in equivalent shape of what he'll have when done.

    Awesome stuff, when I got mine it was like new lease on life for my truck, was thinking of getting rid of it before that.

    Only problem is that led me to spending over $6k on upgrades and mods for my truck, but I paid it off early shortly after I got the frame so that "justified" the mod money.
