    You get a frame, you get a frame, and you get a frame. Oh, you have a 2011? You don't get a frame.

    Make sure the frame is good, cause Toyota isn't going to replace it for free.

    Your right, sorry thought 2011 was included in the lawsuit. Just looked over the lawsuit details.

    Like, so many.
    That does seem like a good deal. You won't get into a decent Taco for less than that. Is it 4WD?

    Yes 4-wheel drive. Not that it matters much, but has bed liner, cover, multi-disc cd, DBL sound, Bluetooth, tow package.

    Thanks again for the replies....I might take it in to my local garage and have them give it a good look over too, just to be sure....paying particular attention to the frame. Located in PA, so yeah, rust is possible.
