Has anyone asked if Toyota will undercoat or otherwise repaint frame and undercarriage parts that aren't rusted out yetto prevent the problem before it's really bad? I was all set to buy a Tundra and stopped dead because I live a mile from the beach and saw a lot of rust on the Tundras in my neighborhood. Not the severity of the guys who live in snow areas, but way worse than any similar year trucks of other makes.

Sounds like Toyota is moving in the right direction, but they really should step in and try and prevent the patient from getting the disease in the first place. It would save them the cost of replacing parts or buying back whole vehicles. Not to mention for those of us who do our own oil changes, watching the underneath of our investment slowly corrode away is just plain ugly! Ford did it with the whole body paint job on their 1980's trucks. My friend's father-in-law got a brand new factory paint job on his F150, for free.
