    Hey - finally joining after years of reading the forums. I'm the proud owner of an '02 PreRunner that has served me well for the last decade and a half. Looking to take it all the way to 20 years. My only issue has been the disposable rear bumpers... OEM lasted about 10 years before rusting out. Put a $200 aftermarket one on in '12 that is now starting to go. Anyone have a favorite bumper to recommend? Doesn't have to be stock nor chrome. I endure the brutal winters of Northeast Ohio with lots of road salt.

    @ALI3N_123 - Here's a pic. This is the same problem I had with the original. It rusts from the inside and pops through the crhome. You can see it heaving in the middle under the license plate - this is rust swell.

    Welcome aboard. The only way that I know to beat rust is an aluminum one.

    Thanks for the tip, @Sum1 Else - I was just shopping the vendors in the bumpers forum.

    Search rear bumpers, some neat stuff, but can get kinda pricey.

    Good Luck

    Thanks, @Ensemble88 ! I appreciate the compliment. I do try to stay vigilant on protection - especially with the salt we deal with up here in the winters.
