Good news, meeting with Toyota Rep on Thursday to sign the final paperwork and check. Looks like we'll have the new truck on Friday. Good luck to you all, I hope you all have a quick resolution.

buy-back irregularities..... by muradsay

While I have been waiting to hear from the Toyo rep on how much they will give me for my '99 X-tra cab SR-5, I was on the Honda lot and a salesman told me that one dealership was using NADA to calculate the value--which is a lot higher--and others use Kelly BB. By my calculations, and those of a Toyo salesman who said he's been pretty close, I would lose almost $1500 by letting them use Kelly.
 
But, this all sounds kind of odd. Wouldn't you think that it was the regional Toyo rep and corporate HQ that would be setting the policy on this?
 
Also: as you might expect, there are people in this area--Maine--who are going around and buying Tacos from unsuspecting sellers, and then getting them into the buy-back program. One fellow has sold back SEVEN trucks. Sheesh. Human nature I suppose.

right, i have never heard of dealerships using nada for trade-in's. wouldn't that be nice. anyway yah i don't think the buy back price is figured by the dealership. isn't there an outside contractor is...something that toyo hired for all this?
 
i know someone who bought a 99 to do the very same thing. ha it passed the inspection! i guess he should have gotten under it before he bought it da.

1995-2000 frame rot 30 day loaner by stormpup

If you opt to take the 30 day loaner, then complete the settlement in less than 30 days, can you keep the loaner for the full 30 days? Or, must you turn it in after receiving the check?

I have a 1997 tacoma which i have had frame rot repairs done twice prior to 3-08. This was pretty costly, about $1,700 , and was needed to pass
NH state inspection. Just wondering if anyone else has had frame rot repair bills and was reimbursed for them by toyota?

Well, I have a 98' tacoma here in the NE. 119,000K but after replacing leaf springs brakes brackets etc... I still passed inspection in Johnstown NY!. Since I will still have it for the time being I mind as well replace the rear bumper.. Anyone selling one?? probably not bc they all rust. . I can purchase it for $300/chrome new.

get her sprayed by gammaphi74

I live in upstate NY, bought my 98 brand new in oct 97. Have the frame, doors, box walls and gate sprayed every year for about 80 bucks a pop. Not a mark on her with over 150 thou on. The only thing I have ever replaced is the muffler (once) and two brake jobs. Truck is solid as a rock and long paid for. I feel your pain, but amazing what a little preventive maintance will do. I highly recommend the spray job. I got the first one done at a rust check dealership but I found that my local walmart will do it for a third of the price. Just something to think about with you "new" trucks and your "new" payment plans.

i think you can. you should email toyota cust svs on the toyota.com website. they got back to me pretty quick (even though now i am waiting almost 2 months). they may want to inspect it though, which i have heard can take a long time for the second inspector to come out. we happened to get lucky and call the day before he was going in to that particular dealer.
 
be persistent.
 
luck
