O bought a taco new in 02. 267,000 miles. No rust.
Up here the frames rust out if you look at them funny and Toyota knows it.
Wasn’t it the 2nd gens only? I had/have 2 2nd gens never had any rust issues on mine
They all had frame rust issues, but only certain ones got recalled. The first gen Tacomas were/are notorious for it. T100s as well. First gen Tundras got free frame replacements, 05-10 Tacomas were the most famous ones, and they are now replacing frames on 11-17 Tacomas as well. Not a recall yet, it's a voluntary service bulletin.

Have an 06 Silverado that I bought new. Brake lines rotted out. Rear bumper rotted out, replaced with aftermarket. No body rust but underside is terrible. Recently rear shock mount crossmembers is the latest to rot out. 2" rigid conduit in them to reinforce the rusting tubes. Any pounding when working underneath dislodges large rust chunks that litter on the floor.

If you won't hold hands, does that mean the coupon you sent me for a free hug is no longer valid?

That's like the Grandpa Buick. From the topside it looks fine, but the underside has some nasty rust. The rear subframe is getting thin, replacing it is my next project.

I don't remember the Hundy's having any frame rot? The first Gen Tundras, but not the Hundy's. I had a '95. The only real rust under it when I sold it was the hitch. I am thinking the frames were not made by Dana Corp on the T100...possibly from Japan. Also had a 2006 tacoma that the frame melted under. Got a free new one, along with a lot of smalls and new LCAs. Frame issue aside, best vehicle I will ever have owned. DD it 15 years.
