I believe the correct way to express the buyback amount is not
"Excellent Retail value + 150%"...because that would be 2 - 1/2 times it's retail.
 
The correct amount is 1.5 times (or 150% of) Excellent retail value.
 
Thanks.

If the vehicle has a salvage title are you buying them back? The policy bulletin says "no way"
 
Also, it hink it's great toyota is giving 150% to owners for 1995 to 2000 trucks - but by marginalizing owners of newer trucks (no 150%, no loaner, no dealer help, no voucher, no customer service) you're really #^^ing these people over. I should know. I didn't even get 100% of the KBB value of my truck. I appreicate the help you're willign to provide, and i understand the annonymity. I know it's not "your policy" it is Toyotas - but they must realize - people are frustrated. Customer service has been horrible. When someone tells me that giveing me $1000 BELOW KBB value for their truck (when it SHOULD be worth $4000 more because of bad frames) - you're slapping them in the face.
 
Toyota needs to do the right thing. Treat every failed frame and every owner the same - regardless of the truck year.
 
ALL owners should get
- a prorated check (150% is what it is)
- a comped loaner until the check arrives
- Dealer assitance (none of this "too bad for you. Drive home and call a 1-800# BS)

here's some news coverage for you New Englanders. This station did a story once, with a few phone calls they may be willing to do a follow-up.

Remember news producers won't do anyhting unless prompted. The more calls from the more people and the better chance for a story. I have been unable to get my local paper to do a feature, but then again I'm the only one in my area trying.
