    My wife and i own a 2000 toyota 4runner and we recently discovered that the frame has rusted through.

One example is that the spare tire is located in the same place on both types of vehicles! *tr

    We have a 2000 toyota 4runner, purchased brand new from a maine dealer. This vehicle recently failed state inspection due to rust holes in the frame. The mileage read 88,600 and it was declared unsafe for the road by our local garage and the local toyota dealership, shepard toyota, rockland, maine. We called toyota and inquired about a buy back program for 4runners, as it has the same frame as a tacoma. Tacomas have…
