Another Frame Rusted

Don't really know what I would take? Not worth the headache of them coming back to me on it.

 

i meant almost like a part out on tacomaworld.com little extra folding money in your pocket

 

if it is going to the crusher anyway it really shouldn't matter what you take off.

 

My neighbor had his Tacoma ( 99 I think) coated by a toyota dealer, than a couple of years later they deemed the truck unsafe. This truck was beat to shit. They gave him a $11,000 check. This happened last spring. He was a happy dude.

 

Well, got my letter from Toyota. Cheque is in the mail.The offer was pretty good so I guess thats it for this TACO. Kind of bitter sweet, The truck is super clean, and drives perfect.No idea on what to get now?

 

Another Taco. Duh.

 

another taco!

 

i have a 11/00 production date tacoma i was basically told by toyota to go pound sand b/c the prev. owner never got the rust prevention and the recall ended 9/11 , any advice would be appreciated.
sounds like you had no issues though.

 

Would this work if the truck wasnt purchased at a dealership? Is it no cost also?

 

So in other words it is designated and registered as a '2001' truck.

Look at your state registration for yr mod or the last 8 digits of the VIN.
If it starts with YZ = 2000, 1Z = 2001

If you read through the threads on here you'll see that 2001 thru 2004 trucks had to be inspected by 12/31/12 ('cept NY) or you're out of luck.

 

What happened to that 15 year grace period? I'm sure you're right but I thought the 1st Gens would be inspected/treated/bought until they were 15 years old.
