Default trunk full of water.

what's the best way to find where a leak is coming from?
my trunk has been filling up with water and i've really gotten tired of sucking it out with a shop vac.

EDIT: no clue why I typed truck instead of trunk... twice.

No Toyota forum? Does it get wet even when just parked, or only if driving in the rain? Remove the trunk lining, make sure the trunk is dry. If the back seat folds down, do so, then get inside the trunk with a light and have someone go over the rear window, trunk seal, taillights, etc with a hose and watch for source of the leak.
