    Sure it does.

    They are all calculated at the Excellent Condition rating 'regardless of mileage'. But for example, when using KBB, 2 identical trucks in Excellent condition except one has 100K less in miles than the other one will always come in at a higher dollar figure.

    Take those same 2 trucks. The one with 222K on the odometer may be in pristine condition. The other one may have... 92K on the odometer, but be completely beat to crap. That owner will get more $$ for the buyback. That's how KBB works and how Toyota comes up with their numbers. I've seen it.

    thanks for all the info everyone!
    UPDATE: Paperwork is arriving for me to sign today and will have my check in a week when I meet the Toyota Corp Rep at my dealer to look over the truck together.
    BLOWN away at the payout....$1500 more than I was hoping for! Drove it for 6 years and made money on it! :)

    Now to find a replacement....
