This 4Runner is all original, including paint, interior, and chasis. I am the second owner and it has always been a California registered vehicle, so any rust issues are minimal and light. No rust on body anywhere. It has been garaged almost since new and the original paint has been professionally guaged, rated almost like new. Tires are new. I had an upgraded alarm system installed when I bought the vehicle and also had the center padded console cover professionally recovered in leather; just like new. I also had the front headliner replaced because a seam was split. In other words, I wanted this 4runner to be as good as possible in appearance. It's a true 4x4, first generation 4Runner and I think it's one of the best original 4Runners out there. I checked the 4x4 wheel locks and they work fine and the 4x4 feature works very well. The 6 cylinder engine starts up quick, runs well, and doesn't miss. It passed California smog with flying colors just a couple of months ago. The automatic transmission shifts smoothly with no jerks or slips. It looks to me like the removeable fiberglass top has never been removed, but I can't guarantee that. Heater and AC work fine. The radio is the original one and works, but the volume knob creates static until you find the right volume. I didn't check the cassette player. The previous owner added a nice set of fog lights, a custom chrome brush bumper, and cruise control. I installed a new battery just last month, and it has a three year guarantee on it. All windows roll up and down smoothly and completely. The rear power window operates perfectly and the drop down tailgate opens and closes just like new. The shocks were replaced at one time, but I have to say that this truck-like frame is rough on the bumps. It might need new shocks or perhaps other work to smooth out the ride. On the road, it drives smooth, straight, and well controlled. Only the bumps are noticable to me. As a side note, I had this exact model 4Runner a few years ago and took it up to 240,000 miles before replacing the engine and selling the vehicle in order to buy a new pickup truck. If this 4runner does the same, it represents a great value for someone. Please note, some of the decals have parking dings and fading. There is one small ding on the left fender well, and these points are in some of the photos posted here on Ebay. This vehicle has never been wrecked and I have some maintenance records that go with it. Also, I have the original owner's manual and two sets of keys with alarm fobs on them. Please email me with any questions and I'll be glad to get the answers to you if I can. I will cooperate with your shipper of choice. Vehicle is sold as is, where is, with no guarantee. Just a few months ago, it was safety and mechanically checked by a dealer before I bought it so I believe it's in fine condition overall.

Toyota's Lentz says fuel cells are the future, not EVs
Sun, 25 May 2014Toyota is not bullish on EVs. That comes from the company's North American CEO, Jim Lentz, who said the company will focus not on electrification, but on continued hybridization with a long-term focus on hydrogen fuel cells.
Lentz questioned the long-range ability of EVs, saying that Toyota feels "there are better alternatives, such as hybrids and plug-in hybrids, and tomorrow with fuel cells." Lentz spoke about Toyota's focus on hydrogen following Forbes Brainstorm Green conference and barely a week after a battery deal between Tesla and Toyota ended, according to Automotive News.
That deal provided for 2,500 battery packs for the Rav4 EV. While valuable to Toyota, the deal "was never about open-ended volume," Lentz said. "It was time to either continue or stop. My personal feeling was that I would rather invest my dollars in fuel cell development than in another 2,500 EVs."
Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
Toyota launches Pixis Space; first kei cars are Daihatsus in drag
Fri, 09 Sep 2011Toyota has announced that it will unveil its first-ever kei car to be sold under its recently launched Pixis sub-brand. The vehicle, called the Pixis Space, will make its official debut in late September. Based on the Daihatsu Move Conte, the Pixis Space will be sold at Toyota dealerships through what the automakers calls "Pixis stations." Yes, seriously.
After Toyota's version of the Daihatsu Move Conte makes its debut, the Japanese automaker will launch a Pixis-badged Daihatsu Hijet truck and microvan in December. By the end of 2012, Toyota says it will launch a Pixis version of the upcoming Daihatsu e:S - a vehicle that returns 70.6 miles per gallon (U.S.) as measured under Japan's JC08 test cycle.
In case you weren't aware, Daihatsu - Japan's oldest manufacturer of automobiles - operates under the control of Toyota. In other words, these Pixis machines are simply badge engineering at the kei level.
