I would appreciate a primer in dealership communications, I've been accused of poor skills on my part contributing to my lackluster dealership experiences.
In my opinion, if the drivetrain breaks under 60k, hell if the stock axles and joints fail at all ever due to normal stress (not from a lack of lubrication or damage obviously) I will be disappointed. It shouldn't even be a discussion to replace them when under 60k miles.
Of course it's situational, power mods and lowered ride height have been shown to reduce life, no argument. If OP is on a 2" drop with 9" wide slicks and claiming +20 or more hp at the wheels then yeah, gotta pay to play, Toyota doesn't owe you better cv joints and axles, but it does owe you a car that can live up to it's own advertising.

With the rear seats folded down it can fit four full size tires and tool kit for weekend track days.

Said at 2:10, the rest of the video is a bore with it rolling around the track with the exception of a decent drift at 3:30.
