    Damage doesn't look too bad & miles are low.

    Maybe the owner walked away from the loan after the accident & stuck the insurance co. Lots of Tacomas on the site.

    They make me smile! Last taco was bought off of copart and fixed up. Same with my current one. If you know how to fix them, its the cheapest way to go.

    Salvage is good if you plan to run it till it dies. You usuall save 30%~50% up front. Bad news is you have to pay cash, and resale can be tough due to salvage title. I don't know about factory warranty, but I doubt they cover it after a car fax hits the vin. I never salvaged anything that new.
