    Going to check out this truck with just under 75k miles, one owner, and shows complete vehicle history and service via Toyota dealership. Guy has records of dealership giving the truck an excellent rating for rust and gave it a spray due to warranty/recall (I live in Michigan). Guy is asking $16,700, should I jump on it? I'll be taking it to a shop of course to have it checked out. Anything I should look out for on my own?

    I drive 40k miles a year and need a truck that can last the next 4 years reliably with minimal $$$ poured into it every year (totaled my chevy and thought I should look into the vehicles with the most die-hard-crazy-fanatics for owners *cough* Toyota *cough*).
