    17 TRD sport paint pealing

    After a heavy rainstorm I noticed the paint was pealing off on the rear passenger door. Is this common for 3rd generation Tacoma’s? I bought it used with 17K miles on it a year ago, one owner and had CarFax etc reports came back clean. Or does any1 suspect this was not original paint?
