    I’ve been eagerly looking to by a Tacoma. I found a 2013 trd sport. However I found this and it worries my guy I get my trucks fixed with. Thoughts?

    Look at the frame and take some pictures of any rust that looks concerning. Post them. We can get a much better idea from that.

    What part of the country do you live in? When i was looking last year I noticed alot of the used tacomas i was looking at in the SE USA were auctioned from up north (full of rust) and then made there way south. Good job doing your due diligence
