I decided a wanted to build a 1st gen 4runner and this is what I created.  I wanted a rust free, stock, clean 4runner. I found what I was looking for here on ebay. It was an 89 4runner, 250k, perfect interior, NO RUST ANYWHERE! , A/C works perfect , unmalested, came with a soft top. I didnt care about the miles because I wanted a fresh motor. I paid 4500 for it and had it shipped to me from Maryland. So then I was on the hunt for a brand new 22re. I found one in NY that was completely rebuilt and still rapped up in storage. I paid 1200 for it. Got it home and started talking apart the truck. I took my time doing the swap and did everything correctly. Bought a brand new red top optima battery 250$. After Market headers 300$. and other small parts. I did the correct break in on the motor. 500 miles, oil change,1500 mile, oil change, still not at next 3000 miles. GETS 20MPG! The check engine light is on right now for the mass airflow sensor. Havnt gotten around to getting a new one yet. So thats the motor. Then I wanted tires. I bought brand new Goodyear wrangler Duratracs. 285/75r16. so about 33 inches tall 11.5 wide. On brand new alloy rims. 1400$. I put in 2 inch Ball joint spacers in the front.And Add a leafs and the ZUK mod in the back.250$ Then bought a trail gear rear bumper 300$ Then decided to regear for the larger tires. So I bought brand new 4.88s front and rear 500$ plus another 500 to get them professionally  installed. Also i put a brand new Detroit tru trac locker in the front 500$. So thats the suspension. Put a brand new deck, subwoofer, alpine amp and 2 6 inch speakers in 900$ Also put a sr5 gauge cluster in 100$ Also came with a 600$ Soft top which is awesome in the summer. New exhaust.



When I started the build I wanted a truck to last me the next 20 years and be bullet proof, small lift with 33s, and rides nice on the road. Thats exactly what this 4runner does. It rides perfectly and starts up every time. I have atleast 11,000 into it.

WHAT IT NEEDS. 
E brake doesnt work because the rear passenger side brake needs work.
small manifold leak because its missing a stud
about a 3 inch whole in drivers side bed panel
Check engine light is on like I said for Mass Airflow sensor


THIS IS AN EARLY BIRD SPECIAL> In a few weeks I will be fixing all these problems and will repost this truck for a lot more money. I don't have that much time so I'd like to sell it now but if I don't get the amount I want I will repost for what its really worth after I fix these small issues. This is a great 4x4 truck, 20mpg, geared right for the tires. Not to lifted. Just the perfect 4runner.

Txt 413-884-2814 for more pics or specific questions. Im looking for 8,000. If it doesn't sell and I fix the issues ill be asking 10,000 on the repost.

Toyota Prius owners targeted by tire-slashing VA vandal

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Toyota Prius owners aren't bad folks. With a few exceptions, they're just normal people that appreciate the comfortable, high-mileage hybrid. Someone in Arlington, Virginia doesn't see it that way, though, as 14 examples (and one Smart) had at least one tire slashed last Sunday night.
The serial tire-slasher didn't any items from the vehicles, but he or she has left owners with substantial bills and sour dispositions. According to a report from ABC affiliate WJLA, some citizens are considering the matter a hate crime.
Despite the targeting of Toyota hybrids and the acquisition of one fingerprint, police have been unable to make any arrests, as the slasher has targeted vehicles across the county. Take a look at the local news report from WJLA below.

Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.

Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.
