Toyota is giving me just under $10,000 for my truck (96' extended cab 4x4). It has been 3 weeks since I brought my truck in for inspection. A meeting has been set up for next week to sign over the truck to them and receive the check. Everyone I have dealt with has been very helpfull and they actually return my calls! But be prepared to be without a truck for about a month if you bring yours in for inspection.

I hate to tell you this otto8. I found out the company that supplies frames for Toyota's trucks and it's Dana Corporation. I believe its main office is somewhere in Ohio.

You have to put your photo on a hosting site and then post the link to that photo here.

I am in the process of turning in my 99 tacoma because of the frame. But, as I am looking at other vehicles, I don't see any I want to own. Does any one know if the Toyota frame problem has been fixed? If I buy a 2007 or 2008 tacoma, will I eventually have the same problem????

Well, I hope the HELL toyota has some quality control measures going on down there. This is the best way to lose customers.....Ask the BIG 3. They seem to have learned that it's not a good idea to keep screwing your customers. Kudos to the big 3 for trying. Lets hope toyota does the same. At least they have stepped up for this problem. Now I am worried about the 2001 s and above.

Can someone tell me definitively whether or not they allow you to leave with your truck if it fails inspection. Most of the posts here imply that if it fails they cease it on the spot but when I went to toyota, the person I spoke with said he thought that it was my choice whether or not they kept it. also, does anyone who has gotten an offer letter know which of the KBB prices they were offered 150% of?

Mine failed, but not so bad that I couldn't drive it. You can drive it. Now, if they deem it too bad (cracked frame, etc.) then they will keep it. Too Unsafe. As far a KBB, I am still waiting.
