I am not a big fan of Toyota either but this is a smart move on their part. Spending a couple of $100,000 buying back old rusted out trucks is nothing compaired to spending millions in legal bills and possible payouts on lawsuits if some frames start failing while they are being drivin. Someone towing a trailer and the frame gives out, someone get hurt or killed, this is a known problem, instant lawsuit. This way they get the problem trucks off the road, maybe sell a few Tundras, and have some happy customers. Win Toyota.
