    Hi everyone I am new as a Tacoma owner and have lots to learn from you guys. I got a 96 Tacoma SR5 and I hope I got a good deal. I checked the frame and I don't see any rust to my knowledge. What do I need to look for? Thanks in advance.

    Would you recommend cleaning it and coating it to prevent more rust? If so what do I need to do?
