My '04 Tacoma muffler is failing. Apparently I need to replace the tail pipe and a small pipe in front of the muffler- it's all one piece. Toyota wants almost $600.
The local Midas is asking $450.
The local Meinike muffler shop said they could replace just the muffler for under $200.
The Midas guy said that the Meinike muffler would be a generic that would fail within a year or two- whereas the "all one piece" unit is guaranteed for life- so I suppose I'll go with Midas. I do intend to keep the truck for many more years.
But, the repair prices on this truck, which I'm just beginning to see- seem exorbitant!
