2010 TRD OR - thoughts on condition?

i have gotten wild smells out of my home and car. skunk, vomit..etc. by burning toast. its an old trick that people back in the day used to get that lingering cooked fish smell out of a kitchen. something to consider. its fun running an extension cord into a car and plugging in a toaster (on a sheet pan for safety) the idea is that the soot is actually a giant surface area of carbon. carbon absorbs stink. YMMV

 

That's a logical solution, I think. Another consideration is that, if it helps me get a better price, the work it takes to get the smell out is probably worth it.

 

If you give me the vin I will check for frame coverage and service records. I am at work(toyota) until 5 central time.

 

Thanks so much! Here's the VIN:

3TMLU4EN8AM046073

Not much service history wise. Oil change here & there and recalls done. I would do all fluids, spark plugs, etc if purchased.

 

So the frame has minimal rust and almost certainly won't qualify for replacement. Can I still get the CRC treatment? He says it may not qualify for that either, but I want to ask them to do it anyway.

 

Here are some photos with it up on the lift, by the way.

 

And some other photos... Sorry for randomness. Wasn't super strategic about exterior shots.
