What owners report
I BOUGHT A 1993 4X4 TOYOTA PICKUP USED AND DISCOVERED IT IS RUSTED WORSE THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE IVE EVER SEEN. THE FRAME IS RUSTED INTO IN MULTIPLE PLACES, THE BRAKE LINES HAVE RUSTED OFF AND I'VE LOST ALL BRAKES SO I CANT DRIVE IT AT ALL NOW. IT RUNS AND GOES GREAT OR WELL IT DID UNTILL FRAME BROKE AND BRAKES WENT OUT. APPARENTLY 1993 FRAMES ARE THE WORST FRAMES TO HAVE ACCORDING TO EVERYTHING IVE SEEN ONLINE.

A COUPLE YEARS AGO I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL LINES REPLACED BECAUSE OF IT RUSTING OUT AND CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK OUT. ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE. BOTH OF THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES THAT IF I DIDN'T FIND OUT COULD HAVE TURNED OUT REALLY BADLY BY EITHER FIRE, CRASH AND

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200,000.
