That is very true. They either have to replace the frame under recall or they can offer to buy it back to avoid having to do the recall work which costs them more than buying it from you. But the frame has to be rusted to qualify for the recall. I would be buying and selling to the dealer if I lives somewhere there was a rust problem but all the tacoma's around here are rust free.
