    I think the truck was sprayed. Was it 15 years from that date or date of truck manufacture?

    15 years from the date of first service (the day it was given to the customer)

    There are no more 1st gens available to have their frame replaced under warranty, afaik.

    There are lots of success stories, but they all happened prior to the 15 year expiration of the warranty.


    So the only possible way your truck could qualify is if your 2004 truck sat on the lot until Nov 2005.

    Yep, you're all right. Called Toyota and tried to get it covered, NOPE.

    Looks like I'll be learning how to remove rust :D
