1986 Toyota 4runner 22re Very Low 92k Miles, No Rust - 1 Long Term Owner, Clean! on 2040-cars
Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
|
Sweet 1st generation 4Runner out of Grand Junction, CO (title, plates, records) came from original owner (truly a little old lady), through a broker in GA to me in UT. Appears to have sat since sometime 4/22/12 (last registration) until only recently. I bought it (on eBay) in August, shipped it to here to Salt Lake City, UT and was reminded just how slowly these little trucks traverse the steep mountain foothill streets around the Salt Lake Valley. Perfect for a teenager nearing permit age, right? WRONG!!! My spoiled teenager will NOT be enjoying this truck, he simply DOES NOT deserve it! IT MUST GO or he'll think he has the option of driving it this Spring when he turns 15. This classic truck has a very impressive score on AutoCheck of 55 (given a range of 13-37) but it isn't without needs to make it perfect (if that is what you're looking to do). This is a great truck and owning one was on MY bucket list since high school. The broker that procured it from the original owner vouches that the top has never been removed on the truck since new. I spotted the truck on Bring a Trailer and chose to send for it instead of driving it back from GA myself. I wasn't at all disappointed with the truck, but moreover am deeply disappointed with my teen's attitude towards the privilege of driving and the responsibilities of doing so that go along with it. My/his loss, is someone else's gain. An inspection by an independent mechanic here in Salt Lake (Steve's Automotive Specialists) found;
While sitting for a couple of years didn't do the seals & gaskets any favors, this truck has yet to leak a drop onto my driveway or garage floor in the few months it's been here. I've driven it a fair amount and haven't had any disappointments. It hasn't let me down. It's not a "concours" condition vehicle by any stretch, so please don't expect it to be. It's 27+ years old and behaves like that (no NAV, manual windows, no Bluetooth). It is being sold "as-is, where-is" with "no warranties expressed nor implied." Disclosures; The AC doesn't blow cold, the rear window won't roll up/down from the toggle switch between the seats, but works just fine with the key inserted into the lock on the rear door (which is required to drop the tailgate). There are 2 very small "stars" on the windshield that have been epoxy filled and 2 small upholstery repairs on the passenger front seat that have been stitched with color-matching thread (see pics). Aside from the very few slight door dings & surface scratches along the passenger side (one where a reflective door bumper was removed) there are no other marks on the exterior at all. Truck is riding on an open CO title & Bill of Sale, this could save the buyer significantly when registering in your home state - check local DMV laws/regulations. I believe in full transparency and full disclosure, so if you have questions - please don't hesitate to text or call 801-580-7917 and ask them in advance of making an offer, please. Please now low-ball side offers via "ask seller a question" button, I'm offering this truck well below what I'm into it. If you're not interested in it, that's fine - don't bid & please just move along. If you are interested, then please take some time to review my 100% positive feedback rating as a seller on cars/trucks from this price ranging up to the six figures+ and then submit your best bid. Please don't inquire about the reserve, I won't share it - that isn't fair to anyone. Show your best faith bid, if it works out - then it's a win/win situation for both of us. If not, it wasn't meant to be for either of us. Pretty simple really. This truck is listed locally and elsewhere electronically so I reserve the right to end the listing at any time, so don't miss out!

Recharge Wrap-up: Porsche Mission E charging for Tesla, net zero energy Toyota dealership
Wed, Oct 5 2016Porsche has confirmed that its Mission E charging infrastructure will also work with Tesla vehicles. The ultra-fast, 800-volt charging system will recharge the Mission E to 80 percent in about 15 minutes, and will also service new EVs from Volkswagen and Audi. Porsche CEO Oliver Blume told Top Gear that development of the charging infrastructure "sounds easy but getting the details agreed is hard. We already have the clear technical concept. It can even work with Teslas, with an adapter." Dieter Zetsche, Head of Mercedes-Benz, also tells Top Gear that they are "in talks" with Porsche regarding charging infrastructure. Read more at Top Gear, or from Electrek. An Oregon Toyota dealership is set to be the world's first net zero energy automotive dealership. The newly constructed, LEED Platinum certified Toyota of Corvallis produces more energy than it consumes, for which it is expected to receive Net Zero Energy certification. The 34,800-square-foot building is equipped with enough solar panels to produce as much energy that the dealership will use, with excess being put back into the grid, which will help during hours of peak demand. Toyota Motor Sales regional manager Steve Haag calls Toyota of Corvallis, "a first-of-its-kind template for the auto dealership of the future." Read more from Toyota. Valeo has introduced a new 48-volt hybrid system. The 48V e4Sport, as it is called, uses a 48-volt battery, electric starter-generator, electric supercharger, and eRAD electric rear axle drive for all-wheel drive. It maximizes regenerative braking and stores that energy for increasing torque with the starter-generator, and increasing acceleration with the electric supercharger. The system also supports all-electric driving modes. Valeo says the system is applicable across all vehicle segments, and works with both gasoline and diesel engines. Read more at Green Car Congress. PSA Group has created its own mobility solutions brand, called Free2Move. Free2Move will handle programs like car sharing, connected services, corporate fleet services, and affordable leasing programs for Peugeot, Citroen, DS, and other PSA partners. "For the PSA Group, mobility means not only making and selling excellent cars, but also offering a full range of mobility solutions," says PSA Group VP of Mobility Services Gregoire Olivier.
Toyota to end Australian production by 2017
Mon, 10 Feb 2014There is more bad news for the Australian auto industry today, as Toyota has just announced that it will follow General Motors and Ford in shuttering its manufacturing operations on the continent. Production and assembly will cease by the end of 2017, but Toyota will remain in Australia as a sales and distribution company.
"We did everything that we could to transform our business, but the reality is that there are too many factors beyond our control that make it unviable to build cars in Australia," said Toyota Australia President and CEO Max Yasuda.
In an official statement, Yasuda said that the closure would directly affect 2,500 manufacturing employees and an unknown number of corporate workers. However, a report in the Australian newspaper The Age suggests that the jobs of 24,000 workers at Australian auto suppliers could also be in jeopardy. Toyota currently builds its Camry, Camry Hybrid, Aurion sedans in Australia, along with four-cylinder engines, and it plans to begin importing the Camry and Aurion after production stops.
Buy a Toyota GT86 and your wife will hate you
Wed, 14 Nov 2012Marketing can be a very strange business. Convincing a man or woman (or child, really) that they absolutely cannot live without the latest, greatest new bit of technology oftentimes takes a unique approach. In the "online film promoting the Toyota GT86" you'll see below, created by agency Happiness Brussels, men are reverse-psychologied into thinking a new sports coupe will make them more masculine by getting their loved ones to hate them. Or something like that. We think.
In any case, we suggest you watch the video below to see how much fun men can have with a GT86 - or Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ, presumably - at the expense of their significant others. Fair warning: There's a potential Not Safe For Work moment in the ad: beware of a brief male butt shot about 44 seconds in.
Marketing. Gotta love it. Unless you're married to a man. Or something like that. We think. Whatever, just watch.
