    I've never done the FF before. Didn't even hear about it until last fall. I clean off the salt regularly and wire brush off the loose rust and repaint 2x per year. I imagine the inside of my frame doesn't look so good though but the outside isn't bad considering 10 years in NE. The frame recall thing scares me. I really don't want Toyota installing a new frame. I can just imagine the gremlins I will have after that.

    Does this FF stop rust from spreading? I haven't taken it in for inspection either since I'm absolutely sure it would pass and then they'd spray it with that mess they use as a temp fix. My frame looks like this as of a couple months ago:

    FF will hault any additional rust damage and save you a lot of time since there will be no need to wire brush anything afterwards

    I personally would pass on the dealer spray, that stuff dries up, cracks and just creates a place for salt to get into and continue to eat your frame

    Gotta figure it out... see if anyone else from around our neck of the woods is going up, so we can plan it out.

    I'll post something in our CT thread probably early next week, for us there to figure it out.

    Never been. Found it on Google. Looks like it's closer enough to wilderness and hills for hiking and some mountain biking, but has enough amenities to keep the kiddo happy when we're sticking around the campground. Plus, maybe in a future year, they'll rent out an entire field of spots, so there could be a Tacoma field party...

    That could be dangerous...
