Now, she shows around 340,000 miles. The gauge cluster was replaced before we bought it with a gauge that had more mileage than the original odometer. I had intended to have the current cluster rolled back roughly 70,000 miles to match the original set, but I never got around to it. So, I am listing it with the mileage that appears on the current odometer, but it should be closer to 270,000. I am a mechanic and tinkerer so I keep her going for our family. I would send my wife and girls back to NC today driving her with no concerns about safety or reliability. I have a long record of fuel mileage, and she gets an average in the 26-28 mpg range while hauling our family of 5 and our gear. I made a wooden rack to haul bikes and coolers on the roof that can be easily removed if you don't want it on there.
Here are the things I have replaced since we have been her caretakers:
What does she need:
She comes with a new set of tire chains and a good spare. Due to the weight, she runs great in the snow. I think I have a set of rear brake shoes and a steering linkage rebuild kit that I will be letting go with her too.
I can replace the alternator for an additional $150 above final sale price if you like. Again, we didn't replace it since it charges fine at highway speeds.
I have replaced the engine oil, transmission fluid, and gear oil in differential with AmsOil Synthetic products. The engine oil will be changed with fresh AmsOil 15W-40 during this auction listing. I occasionally blend filtered WVO in the factory tank with diesel fuel, but have not made any conversion modifications. This car is a good running daily driver that we will be sad to see go. I will wash her inside and out prior to you picking her up. I will be happy to answer any questions you might have, so don't hesitate to contact me.
We will continue to drive her until the end of the auction. She has a clear NC title that I have with me here in OR.
Her replacement has already been purchased, "Boober" is a 1987 Toyota Van Wagon that will fit on our trailer. You can see Boober in the video of Blondie.

Super Bowl commercials: Steven Tyler, Emerson Fittipaldi, Keanu Reeves and more
Thu, Feb 1 2018Sunday is Super Bowl LII, which means America will immerse itself in high-calorie potluck fare, garish halftime-show entertainment (Justin Timberlake, bringing sexy back, but not that kind), the most expensive and over-the-top TV ads of the year, and — oh yeah — a football game between two teams connected by Amtrak's Northeast Corridor line. What else you gonna do on the first Sunday of February? As usual, automakers plan big, splashy TV spots to reach all those gajillions of eyeballs glued to the teevee, though the list may be shorter than in previous years. Here's a roundup of what we know is coming. Hyundai Hyundai will test the football/futbol divide with a 60-second spot starring a youth-soccer ref who arrives for the game dramatically and just in time in his 2018 Kona. Only it's Super Bowl Sunday, so he — along with the two coaches, and apparently most of the parents — are eager to get on with their game-day plans. Advantage: football, being the message, we guess. The ad does make a quick plug for Hyundai's BlueLink nav system, but this is only nominally about the car. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Kia This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The Korean automaker will put Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler behind the wheel of its new Stinger on an abandoned racetrack. The former " American Idol" host promptly puts it into reverse, going back to his '70s heyday, courtesy of some CGI, to the strains of "Dream On" played backwards. Trotting out an almost-70-year-old to relive some classic rock glory fits the Super Bowl template to a T. Two-time Formula One and Indianapolis 500 champ Emerson Fittipaldi also makes a cameo. It airs in the third quarter. Lexus This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Lexus teams with Marvel Studios to preview its forthcoming movie "Black Panther," which arrives in theaters Feb. 16. In "Long Live The King," the Black Panther, a.k.a. King T'Challa, played by Chadwick Boseman, dispatches some bad guys to recover stolen Vibranium after clinging to the roof of a speeding 2018 LS 500 F Sport, driven by co-star Danai Gurira.

Major Alexa deal will bring Amazon services into more cars
Wed, Jan 9 2019Amazon and its personal assistance service Alexa are partnering with HERE Technologies to create a new connected mobility service powerhouse. Alexa will integrate with HERE's navigation and location services to offer what the two companies are calling a "true voice-first-navigation experience." Alexa will come pre-integrated with HERE navigation on-demand, which the automakers can then enable, which should help cut down on development time. One of the biggest features from this partnership is how directions could be offered and delivered using HERE's Open Location Platform (OLP). Currently, the OLP uses data from several car manufacturers to provide insights into real-time location and traffic. But on Alexa, this could be used to provide directional context. For example, Alexa could say, "Turn right after [such-and-such a building]" rather than just, "Turn right." Amazon has been testing the automotive waters throughout the past decade. Its home-based Alexa-enabled devices are already offered with connections to several manufacturers. To various degrees of integration, it can already pair with Ford, Genesis, Toyota, Lexus, Hyundai and BMW vehicles. At the end of 2018, Amazon took things a step further when it introduced the Echo Auto, a Bluetooth-connected Alexa assistant device that can be physically kept in a car. Currently only available by invitation (its production and distribution have been delayed), the $25 device is essentially a voice service that works together with smartphones and connects to a car's speakers. Users can command it to do a variety of things, including playing music, setting navigation, opening the garage door, finding local stores, making calls, setting reminders, and thousands of other "skills." According to The Verge, nearly 1 million people have already ordered the device. Some (well, probably few) may know HERE Technologies from its maps on Windows Phones. We all know how that turned out, though. Today, HERE has expanded into a multi-function suite that is available in multiple mediums, including many automotive applications. HERE Automotive's connected vehicle services include real-time traffic, parking, weather, fuel prices, hazard warnings, traffic sign integration, and even EV charging stations. These all incorporate and extend the use of HERE's location and tracking programming. HERE is already partnered with BMW, Audi, Daimler, Intel, Mobileye, NVIDIA, and has investments from Bosch, Continental and Pioneer.
