Up for sale is my 1985 Toyota 4Runner SR5. This is the last year in US market the solid front axle was available, and the first year that fuel injection was available. This has both!
I bought this in November of 2011 after many years of looking for the one I wanted. I am getting married next month, so I need to move on to something that sleeps two comfortably. The previous owner was also a Toyota enthusiast and had flown to Florida to buy it in 2010. He didn't want any surprises on his 1483 mile drive back to Wisconsin so he change all of the fluids (brake, trans, transfer, differential, and engine oil), and replaced the entire cooling system (radiator, hoses, water pump, Toyota 2 stage thermostat, and belts). U-joints were greased regularly, as well as all grease-able steering components. This truck was originally white, but is now red. The paint job looks good for a seven year old paint job, and still shines. The body has over 220,000 miles and the previous owner told me the engine was rebuilt about 40k miles ago. The legendary 22re is durable, and has plenty of power. I am getting 23mpg on the highway, and 18 in the city. It always starts, runs, and brakes as it should. Cool options on this truck are the power steering, power antenna, power windows, and factory cruise control...They all work! The rear window works with the key in the tailgate AND the switch on the console. The factory (non-leaking) sunroof is there, with the factory removable sun shade. Altimeter and inclinometer on the dash all still work. There are two things missing: the key pad (outer) part of the passenger door window switch, and the shifter boots. (I wanted to source original factory parts, but haven't made time or need for those two things. I do have the passenger window switch, and the master on the driver door controls the passenger window anyway.) The rear window defroster does not work because the wires in the glass are worn. I haven't cared to source new glass, because this doesn't get driven in the winter. The complete air conditioning system is there, but doesn't work. I'd guess it needs to be charged, but again, you don't need A/C when you can roll your back window down, so I haven't cared about it. The heat works great and the optional REAR heat blows hot too! This beauty is 27 years old, so you're not getting a perfect truck. There are a few little dings but no major dents or damage. Rust is starting over the rear wheel arches, but no holes. The paint shines nicely as the two previous owners took good care of the exterior and interior. (The previous owner's wife had a newer Jeep Cherokee...he made her park that outside, so that his Toyotas could stay in the garage! I take this out on weekends mostly, and it stays in a barn when not in use.) The frame is not rusty at all! It has the factory W56 5-speed manual transmission that shifts nice and smooth with a firm clutch pedal. It also has newer Monroe sense-trac shocks and rides pretty nice for a solid axle truck. It has the removable factory top with factory roll bar. I have never taken the top off. The rear bumper is custom made by the previous owner, and if you look you will notice that it is awesome. It is currently rolling on matching Michelin LTX all season tires that are in good shape. There is a spare that I keep in the rear. I reserve the right to end the auction early as this is also for sale locally. If you have a 4x4 Tacoma that is not red or rusty, but IS an xtra cab or crew cab, I will consider trades (plus cash on my end if your truck is worth it). You don't see many of these, and certainly not in this condition. Here is your opportunity to own a classic 4x4! *EDIT: the Autocheck is showing a 2005 accident. I cannot tell looking at it or underneath it. It drives straight, and I haven't had any problems. |

Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S sales disappointing worldwide?
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Okay, folks - it appears we've got a problem. The Toyota GT86, Europe's counterpart to our own beloved Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S coupes, is apparently not selling too well. This, according to Toyota's European Vice President of Research and Development, Gerald Killman, is what's limiting plans for additional variants of the rear-drive coupe.
"A faster version of that car would be at the top of most people's wish lists, but like the cabriolet, it is hard to justify a business case to push either model into production based on the current sales," Killman told AutoExpress. "Personally, I think that engine could use a little bit more," he added.
More troubling is that slow sales aren't limited to the Euro-spec car, with Killman claiming that the GT86 have been missing sales targets in major markets around the globe. It may not be that the US is one of those major markets, though. Scion's Vice President, Doug Murtha, tells Autoblog that his brand is happy with the sales of its version of the GT86, the FR-S. 18,000 units were sold last year, which Murtha says is "generally in line with original expectations for the car."
Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California
Wed, 31 Jul 2013In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:
Toyota nears $40B cash reserve as calls grow for new investment, payouts
Wed, 05 Feb 2014With the April 15 tax deadline just a few months away, our US readers will be faced with a decision should they get a refund: save or spend? It seems this issue is one many of us face whenever there's a windfall, trying to decide whether we should set the money aside in an account of some sort or use it as a down payment on a new car or a trip to the Apple store. Unsurprisingly, major corporations face a similar, albeit more complex, issue.
Take Toyota, for example. With President Akio Toyoda at the helm, the Japanese manufacturer has gracefully weathered recalls and natural disasters, all while turning beaucoup profits. Last quarter, profits quintupled to 434.4-billion yen ($4.3-billion USD), according to Bloomberg. Toyota also upped its forecast for the end of fiscal year 2013 (which ends on March 31 for Japan), to a record 1.9-trillion yen (about $18.8 billion). Now, the Japanese brand is reportedly sitting on a cash pile of nearly $40 billion, leaving Toyoda-san in an envious predicament - what should the company do with all that money?
Some think Toyota should be doing something, anything with that big stack of cash.
