2000 Toyota 4runner Must See, Excellent Condition, Supercharger, 4 Runner on 2040-cars
Holland, Michigan, United States
|
If you’ve been looking for a good deal of a great 4Runner
this is the auction you’ve been looking for, and NO it’s not a typo…IT’S IN
MICHIGAN!!!! I bought this truck back when there was a lot of snow on the
ground. I travel a lot for work and wanted a 4X4 for the bad Michigan winter.
Now that the weather is better I see no reason to continue to pay insurance for
2 vehicles so it’s time for the 4Runner to go. It’s a 2000 SR5 V6 (5VZ FE) with a Toyota supercharger. The
truck and motor (3.4L) have approx. 198K, and the super charger has approx.
60K. The previous owner, who use to be a Toyota mechanic, installed it, along
with a new timing belt, about 60K ago. This is my first experience with a supercharger, and this
truck runs better, faster, and with more torque than any other Toyota I have
ever owned, and I love the low pitched
whine it make when I accelerate. But, like I said I have no reason to pay for 2 vehicles so
my loss is your gain…..here’s the specs. Exterior: The truck is 15 years old, but as you can clearly see from all
the pictures it has been VERY WELL taken care of. There are a few spots of
surface rust starting to show, the seam between the body panel and the rear
bumper, the rear bumper, and a few other spots I’ve taken pictures of. The rocker
panels on both sides have some pretty bad rust spots, under the vehicle, out of
view, unless you’re looking for them. Other than that, the finish is fantastic,
some paint chips that have been touched up, but, the best looking 15 year old
4X4 I’ve ever seen. The wheels have some
road rash, very repairable minor surface scratches. The tires are new, as you
can see from the pictures, the receipt for them is in the glove box. They only
have about 15K on them, and have recently been rotated. The emblems on the back
of the truck have been removed, and the rear taillights have been replaced with
black-outs, there are black window guards, black bug guard, and a front brush guard,
black, which makes for a fantastic look. Interior: The condition of the interior is also fantastic, there is a
rip in the rear seat, and a stain in the cargo area, other than that it’s near
perfect. There are no rips in the driver’s seat where that usually wear out,
the original cargo cover is still there, and fully functional. There is an
aftermarket AM/FM/CD/DVD/GPS touch screen in the dash, and the dash panel has
been filled out to fit it. This truck is incredibly clean even under the rear
seats are spotless. The floor mats are aftermarket but they look good in the
truck, front and rear. Everything in the truck works fine, PW, PL, PM, moon
roof, heat, and cold AC, the rear window goes up and down, all gauges work
fine, and the dash lights for ABS, 4X4, OD Off, cruise, brake, and everything
else are functional, and there are NO warning lights on as you can see from the
picture of the truck going down the road. Under the Hood: As you can see from the photo’s the motor is clean (well
taken care of), the timing belt cover had to be notched to fit the
supercharger. There is a K&N air filter, just cleaned. I had to replace the
knock sensors, so I also put in new plugs (1 step colder, as recommended for
the supercharger), wires, PCV valve, drive belt, and all new gaskets. I had to
replace the battery, see receipt. I also installed a remote starter. The latch
for the hood is sticky and doesn’t always latch the first time. Overall: There is one small chip in the bottom of the windshield, out
of view, and the power antenna has been replaced with a rigid mast antenna, but
reception is fine. The clear coat around the hood scoop is starting to peal. I
had the oil changes done at the dealership, and they did a thorough inspection
of brakes, suspension, etc., and found no problems. I have the Car Fax for the
truck, there was one small incident
that lists as minor damage but otherwise a clear report. I will email it upon
request. The emergency brake doesn't work. Although this truck has almost 200K on it, based on my
opinion of the condition of this truck, it has at least another 100K left on
it. And possible more if you continue to take care of this truck. The photos are the best representation of this 4Runner I
could get, but if you have any questions or would like to request specific
photo’s please let me know. No 0 feedback bidding unless approved by me. A $500
non-refundable deposit is required at the close of the auction and the vehicle
must be picked up within 7 days of completed auction Thank You, and Happy Bidding |

Autoblog Minute: VW finds CO2 'irregularities', Takata dropped by automakers, SEMA recap
Fri, Nov 6 2015Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle, US regulators hit Takata Corporation with a substantial fine, and we head to Las Vegas for a look at tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle. US regulators issue a significant fine to Takata Corporation. And we take a peek inside tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. The VW diesel emissions scandal, first brought to light in September, gets a new wrinkle, as an internal investigation by the German automaker revealed [00:00:30] irregularities in CO2 emissions that could affect approximately 800,000 vehicles. VW estimates the issue could pose a 2-billion euro economic risk. VW claims that most of the vehicles affected have diesel engines, but industry analysts say a 1.4-liter gas engine is also affected. VW says that fuel consumption figures were set too low during the CO2 certification process. During all of this, sales of some diesel-powered Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche models [00:01:00] have been halted. Takata Corporation is back in the news in connection with its deadly airbag scandal. Federal regulators fined Takata $70 million. If the parts supplier does not comply, the fine could balloon to $200 million. Takata was also dropped this week by its biggest customer, Honda. And now, Toyota and Mazda will be following Honda's lead in dropping Takata. We're also hearing that Mitsubishi and Subaru are considering a switch in air-bag inflator suppliers. SEMA 2015 [00:01:30] came and went. We saw offerings from Mopar, like the AWD Challenger concept. Honda unveiled a Ridgeline that it will race at the Baja 1000, which gives us a hint at what future production model could look like. The celebrity presence was also felt in Vegas as it always is. Kid Rock brought a Duramax Diesel Chevy Silverado, and Acura restored and presented Ludacris with his now famous 1993 Acura Legend. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to come back on Saturday for my full recap, [00:02:00] where I'll have some added insight into Hyundai's foray into the luxury sector. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore. Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive.
What would you drive in 1985?
Wed, May 6 2020Bereft of live baseball games to watch, I've turned to the good ship YouTube to watch classic games. While watching the 1985 American League Championship Series last night, several of the broadcast's commercials made its way into the original VHS recording, including those for cars. "Only 8.8% financing on a 1985 Ford Tempo!" What a deal! That got me thinking: what would I drive in 1985? It sure wouldn't be a Tempo. Or an IROC-Z, for that matter, despite what my Photoshopped 1980s self would indicate in the picture above. I posed this question to my fellow Autobloggists. Only one could actually drive back then, I was only 2 and a few editors weren't even close to being born. Here are our choices, which were simply made with the edict of "Come on, man, be realistic." West Coast Editor James Riswick: OK, I started this, I'll go first. I like coupes today, so I'm pretty sure I'd drive one back then. I definitely don't see myself driving some badge-engineered GM thing from 1985, and although a Honda Prelude has a certain appeal, I must admit that something European would likely be in order. A BMW maybe? No, I'm too much a contrarian for that. The answer is therefore a 1985 Saab 900 Turbo 3-Door, which is not only a coupe but a hatchback, too. If I could scrounge up enough Reagan-era bucks for the ultra-cool SPG model, that would be rad. The 900 Turbo pictured, which was for auction on Bring a Trailer a few years ago, came with plum-colored Bokhara Red, and you're damn sure I would've had me one of those. Nevermind 1985, I'd probably drive this thing today.  Associate Editor Byron Hurd: I'm going to go with the 1985.5 Ford Mustang SVO, AKA the turbocharged Fox Body that everybody remembers but nobody drives. The mid-year update to the SVO bumped the power up from 175 ponies (yeah, yeah) to 205, making it almost as powerful (on paper, anyway) as the V8-powered GT models offered in the same time frame. I chose this particular car because it's a bit of a time capsule and, simultaneously, a reminder that all things are cyclical. Here we are, 35 years later, and 2.3-liter turbocharged Mustangs are a thing again. Who would have guessed?
Ever wonder how to really pronounce Japanese automaker names?
Thu, 25 Sep 2014People tend to get very set in their ways when it comes to the pronunciation of words. Just look at the endless debates over whether or not to say the final 'e' in Porsche (which you should in terms of correct German enunciation). Or the argument about whether to follow the British convention and give the 'u' in Jaguar a special delivery or to say the 'ua' diphthong as more of a 'w' sound, as usually happens in the US.
This short video doesn't answer either of those automotive questions, but it does allow a native Japanese speaker to demonstrate the accepted pronunciations for several, major automakers from the country. One benefit is that it clears up the occasional debate over whether Nissan should be said with a long or short 'i' sound. Also, listen closely to how the female host says Mazda as Matsuda, the way it's actually said in the language. Even if this doesn't change the way you enunciate these brands, at least now you know the accurate way in Japanese.
