****FRAME RUST advice***

Its ok... its just thursday, i inderstand.

 

I'm from the hollers of WV. Any port in a storm...

 

****** I THINK IF YOU GET A GOOD PRICE, IT WONT BE TOO MUCH DRAMA *****

 

Looks about the same as my 2017. I'm near Pittsburgh. I'm planning to do a cleanup and touch up on my truck and the wife's 4runner in the spring. Living here, unless one is willing to go south, it is what it is. I wouldn't be concerned. I would just try to nip it in the butt sooner than later if you end up buying it.

 

I THINK YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT. WHY SO LOUD THOUGH?

 

TOO MUCH CROWD NOISE IN HERE... GOTTA YELL TO BE HEARD...

THAT'S NOT A HOLE!!!!

 

JUST EMULATING THE OPS NEED TO BE SEEN, I MEET PEOPLE WHERE THEY MEET ME.

 

IT'S ALMOST FRIDAY.... DID YOU HEAR ME?

 

There’s absolutely nothing with that frame.

 

WHAT?

 

They were asking 24,900 dropped to 23,500

 

I think it'll clean up well. Wire brush, rust encapsulator, and some FF.

I'm in Western PA. That's not perfect, but not bad for a used vehicle in this state.

 

What does that even mean

 

No....

 

IF you can get most of the surface rust to cleanup...like said pressure wash it good till it perfectly dry and fame is clean. I recently help a friend with a 2019 tacoma. We did this...the day we used rp-342 regular cosmoline on his truck while wearing some cheap hazmat suits to cover us up. Frame now appears like new. Should be good for a few years. Fluid film is fine, but it won't last more than a year before needing to do it again. Imo, although a few bucks more a can cosmoline will save a lot of labor down the road. These trucks are a pita without some sort of lift to work under.

 

I decided to pass on it

 

Truck is fine, 5 or 6 cans of Fluid Film will take care of that rust

 

For a few more grand you can buy a new SR Tacoma, it does not have all the bells and whistles, I went through what you are doing and decided to buy new and glad I did. Right after I get my 2nd check up from Toyota I am making some phone calls to have the under earth sprayed with protective something. I do not know enough about what kind I will have sprayed. Hope to do this before winter. Good luck in your search

 

Thanks man
