    Just took delivery in CA of my fifth Tacoma (my first 3rd Gen.) It was an east-coast truck (Philly) and the overall condition and price were right. As expected, there's some minor rust and corrosion, mostly at welds or on fasteners, or on aluminum surfaces. It's a 2016 w/ 50k miles, and garaged, so as figured, winter damage seems moderate.

    Does anyone have any experience with areas I should inspect or address immediately?

    look underneath inside the frame rails, that’s where the winter brine usually ends up causing rust. i fluid filmed mine after i clean and painted areas. so far my still looks good. i’m in md, mine has 45k
