New to Tacoma

Bought a new 2017 inferno off-road 4x4 double cab. Love it. Only thing I don't like is the cheap already rusted exhaust. I've only got 8000 miles on it. I looked at the exhaust from cat back and it's rusted enough that when I hit it with my fist rust flakes fell off. The joint past the converter the bolts are so rusted I'm worried they will brake if I try and take them off. Rust isn't a problem in Colorado so the material must be really cheap. I'll be looking to upgrade to stainless exhaust. Has anyone done this exhaust change?

 

1st post, 1st complaint, 1st time I recall reading about this particular issue.

Can we get some photos?

 

Yes the under side of mine has some rust, but where they use salt on the roads u need to wash it down more often. Parts for these seen to be a quality problem across the board.

 

Yes I wash it Alot. We don't use salt on roads here in Colorado. I bought the truck in December. The amount of rust especially at the joint is excessive. I could see that much maybe after 3 years or so but not 6 months. I'm at work so no pictures available yet

 

8k miles that's ridiculous!

 

Welcome! Sorry to hear about the rust issue.

 

Congrats on your new Tacoma and welcome!
