    20170703_193406.jpg 20170703_194043.jpg 20170703_194117.jpg Just bought it a couple weeks ago, just over 32,000 miles on it. Probably getting a new frame due to a small perforation a little bigger then 10mm.

    Where are you? Out here in Cali they are pretty much worth their weight in gold!

    Another guy is considering one for $17k in Utah with 126k miles.

    Is the dealer going to give you new leafs too?

    That's awesome that you're eligible for the frame replacement even though you bought after the deadline! Nice truck btw!

    Not sure why you can't see the pics, others saw them and I'm still seeing them so I'm not sure what's going on.

    I shared them from my Google photos so I'm wondering if Google Chrome is needed to view them. Also you can try refreshing the web page, sometime pics don't always load correctly.

    Thanks, everything I've been told by both Toyota and the dealer is pointing to a new frame. It meets the criteria Toyota is using and the service department is very confident so we will see. I should have a answer on Monday or so.

    Can't see the pics either but congrats, where in MA are you, just curious what dealership you went to for the frame. Got mine replaced a year ago and couldn't be happier.
