Many of the older Toyota seen around these parts (northeast) suffer from
severe rusting, particularly in the bed, side walls and wheel cutouts. I
don't know how the newer models hold up.

My Tundra is a 2002 model year purchased in the fall of 2001. Before
we moved to FL I used to take it out 4 wheeling on the Long Island
south shore beaches all the time, as well as drive it on salt covered
roads in the winter, and trailer launch in salt water. There is no
rust anywhere.

You still see many more older Ford and Chevy/GMC trucks on the road than you
see older Toyotas, if that means anything.

There have been a lot more of them sold over the years.
