    A number of companies are offering a life time warranty. The only stipulation is all scheduled maintenance in the owners manual to include oil changes has to be performed at their authorized facility.

    I had the ESP plan and it expired on 6/21/16

    Bought originally from Apple Ford in Columbia. That had given me the "Dealership for Life" program which included lifetime engine warranty. However I'm not eligible for that warranty since I did not have them perform all of the service work on my truck; as their warranty contract strictly stipulates.

    After they screwed up my truck three times (twice during their "free oil changes") and ruined the lugnuts on my tires during a rotation (and introduced a long standing unbalanced tire issue) I elected never to bring the truck back to them.

    Geez Will, you sure do have a lot of trouble with dealerships.

    Seems so. I have high standards. Expect others to meet them. Mediocrisy is not in my vocabulary.

    I am taking delivery of a 2018 Tacoma tomorrow afternoon. Picture forthcoming.

    Congrats on the new Toyota.., looking forward to the pics. You’ll have no problem getting 200,000-300,000 miles out of it.
