    Howdy,

    I'm new to this forum and psyched to be a member! I live in Maine where there's lots of snow and lots of trails to explore. I love my '04 Extended cab Tacoma TRD, second one I've owned... the first was a '94 pickup. I would have never gotten rid of her, but the frame rotted out. I'm hoping my new girl has a lot of years left in her!

    Be aware, you still have a bit of time to get this frame inspected as long as it has had the dealership, applied undercoating.

    ...and welcome from Michigan.

    I did get the frame looked over when I first bought it, 4 years ago. It was still covered under warranty and passed inspection- the truck is originally from Florida. The dealership then applied undercoating. I need to do it again.

    Most likely not needed. Our trucks really only can haul 500# in stock form. If you are not severely squatting to truck bed, most likely the tires are far from being over loaded.
