    Too few to list.
    Yep. You got it right there. People put more money into cars than what it's worth. I think for the most part, we all do it. I've seen cars worth $2K with $2K wheels and tires. Pretty soon I'm going to rebuild an old K1500 and most likely spend more than what the truck is actually worth and that's doing the work myself.

    If this is true I may be interested. I can get very good rates on freight shipping through my job...and depending on how my quote goes when I bring my truck in next week, I may be interested..

    He's been trying to get rid of it for a long time lol. Kind of surprising with how many Tacomas are in need of new frames, but I guess since its here on the west coast where no one really needs one, the logistics of shipping it is the big issue

    If you dont have an account, freight shipping will rip you apart. Freight companies dont want to be based on single pick ups. They want contract customers that will schedule pickups on a very regular basis. Just got pulled a quote up and it would be 221...so a little more than i thought; but still not bad. Also that is using zip code 90210 lol

    Yeah, even though his frame is a '96, and you have a 2003, there may be some fab work to get it to work, but damn, still totally worth it when shipping is that low.

    haha 90210 is way down in southern CA, he's like 500 miles north of there lol. Although it might not make much of a difference

    Prob wont. I didnt look where he is. Whenever I need a general shipping quote accross the country I use 90210. It wouldnt make a big difference. If anything going north would make it cheaper.

    CA, it's all the same right?

    Yeah, it's only a 12.5 hour drive to get from the south end of the state to the north.

    Them: Where do you live?

    You: Bakersfield

    Them: So... LA, right?

    You arrange it i can be there for pickup. If it needs to be on a pallet then you gotta pay for the pallet cost. But that's cheap to build
