I'd be back on Toyota, sounds like the place you took it to, gave you the cheapazz option...if it has expired, is this a frame that can be fixed by welding? you'd think a body shop could do something for ya....
I know my relatives in the south part of the State ( WVA) drive some real rattletraps and get them thru registration every year...
Glad I live where I don't have to deal with 'state inspection' where I live now...
