2005 Toyota 4Runner Limited in Dorado Gold Pearl over Taupe leather interior. This version has the 4.7L V8, 5 speed automatic transmission, and rear wheel drive. Currently has about 146,000 miles but looks and drives great.


If you are looking for a 4runner then you probably already know what amazingly capable and dependable vehicles they are. If you are looking for a SUV and aren’t looking for a 4runner, you should be. Check some classified listings to see how many miles these trucks will go for and still hold their value.


This is why you want one with a V8: Incredible motor that was designed to serve in both trucks and luxury sedans so you get power, reliability, and refinement. The V6 version doesn’t save you much in MPG and won’t have the kind of power on demand that this does.


This is why you want a 2005: V6 models get upgraded from a 4 speed transmission to a 5 speed version. The V8 got a 35 horsepower boost to 270 HP / 320 lb/ft with no sacrifice in fuel economy thanks to variable valve timing.


This is why you want a Limited edition: You get these standard features not on SR5 models: Leather interior with 8-way power driver’s seat and 4-way power passenger seat, sunroof, 120V power inverter, upgraded instrument cluster illumination, heated front seats, dual zone climate control, auto on/off headlights, JBL Synthesis premium sound system with 6-disc in-dash CD/MP3 player, silver and granite interior trim with leather trimmed shift knob, and double-decker cargo shelf system.


This is why you want this one: We purchased it from the original owner in 2008. She drove up and down I-75 delivering brochures and her husband owns an auto shop so the car had highway miles and was maintained properly. A search of Toyota’s service records shows the replacement of the power lumbar motor as the only non-routine item in the first 100K miles. Since purchasing, we have kept up on the maintenance with regular Mobil 1 oil changes and other items as needed. We had the timing belt replaced and it isn’t required again until 180K miles. This has been a great truck that served us well but we are looking at getting either a 4WD version of this or it’s fancy cousin, the Lexus GX470. The car has no drivability issues and everything works as it should. There is the usual wear and tear associated with a vehicle of this age; some rock chips, a small scratch on the rear bumper, and some fading on a couple of the plastic fender flares. The only disappointment in the car is the cracked dashboard. Apparently Toyota hasn’t figured out how to make one that stands up to the heat as I’ve seen it on most of the other Lexus / 4Runners that we’ve been shopping for. Front tires are getting worn but can be worked into the deal. The car is being driven daily so mileage will increase. 


$500 non-refundable deposit due within 24 hours of purchase. I shouldn't have to put pages of legal disclaimer here: if you make an offer and it is accepted, you are expected to buy the car and I'm expected to sell it to you. Have your inspections or financing completed first. I am happy to assist with shipping or inspections but this must be arranged before purchase. I'm also happy to take more pictures of any specific areas so you know exactly what you are getting.

Oh Buoy! Toyota sinks to Spongebob depths with custom Highlander

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The launch of the 2014 Toyota Highlander is being assisted by Bikini Bottom's number one resident, SpongeBob SquarePants. The new crossover has been wrapped with SpongeBob's square mug all over it as if he's saying "I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready," from every direction. Inside is a cabin that Toyota says "captures all of the beloved character's high-octane energy," but might make you question whether this is really the world you want to live in.
Revealed on SpongeBob Day at the San Diego Padres vs. San Francisco Giants baseball game in San Diego, CA on July 13, the Highlander will go from there to seven locations nationwide on a "Happy Driving Tour," ending at the LA Auto Show in November.
You can read all about it in the press release below, as well as ways to fill your life with more SpongeBob than is probably healthy.

Toyota Camry Hybrid SE adds a dash of limited-edition sport

Tue, 04 Feb 2014

For drivers who want to benefit from the increased efficiency of a hybrid sedan but who don't want to look like they'd rather be hugging trees, Toyota has just announced its 2014.5 Camry Hybrid SE Limited Edition.
The SE LTD combines the exterior bits and pieces that make the SE look sportier than other Camry models with the 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine, electric motor and nickel metal hydride battery pack of the Camry Hybrid. That means the Hybrid SE offers up 200 combined system horsepower to the front wheels, and we'd expect it to be rated at the same 40 miles per gallon city and 38 highway of the Camry XLE Hybrid.
Only 5,000 units will be produced between February and June of 2014, with an asking price of $27,845, which is about $700 more expensive than the base Camry Hybrid LE or $2,620 less than the Hybrid XLE that Toyota says shares a similar level of equipment. Sounds like a fair shake to us. Scroll down below for the complete press release.

Toyota's 'green bond' an industry first, quickly rises to $1.75 billion

Tue, Mar 25 2014

Toyota is greasing the skids for more green car purchases with the announcement of a $1.75-billion bond designed to finance the purchase of high-efficiency Toyota and Lexus models. The Asset-Backed Green Bond is a first for the automotive industry and is making a lot of money available to buy or lease the following vehicles: any of the four Prius variants, Camry Hybrid, Avalon Hybrid, RAV4 EV, Lexus CT 200h and Lexus ES 300h. Originally, the bond was set at $1.25 billion, but Justin Leach, manager of public relations for Toyota Financial Services (TFS), told AutoblogGreen that demand was high and it was quickly oversubscribed. TFS has been looking at more ways to diversify its portfolio after a Diversity & Inclusion Bond that was announced in early 2013 and, with the new Green Bond, TFS is offering something for the "number of investors out there who are looking for investment opportunities in green." The way the money from the bond is used, basically, is that TFS takes the $1.75 billion and uses it to finance the purchase or lease of the nine vehicles listed above. As of right now, all the eligible vehicles are plug-in or hybrids, but the rules simply say that the cars in the program have to meet certain "powertrain, fuel efficiency and emissions" criteria. That means: Minimum EPA estimated MPG (or MPG equivalent for alternative fuel vehicles) of 35 city / 35 highway California Low-Emission Vehicle II (LEV II) certification of super ultra-low emission vehicles (SULEVs) or higher, which would include partial zero emissions vehicles (PZEVs) and zero emissions vehicles (ZEVs). TFS raises plenty of billions in other ways for the rest of the lineup, and got into asset backed securities in 2010, Leach said. Given the success of this first Green Bond, Leach said he expects TFS to keep this idea in its arsenal. "This one was so well received, I would be surprised if we didn't see it again," he said. "If anyone was going to do it, it should be Toyota, right?" Toyota Financial Services (TFS) Issues Auto Industry's First-Ever Asset-Backed Green Bond Bond Proceeds to Fund Consumer Loans and Leases for Toyota's Leading Portfolio of Green Vehicles TORRANCE, Calif., (March 24, 2014) – Toyota Financial Services (TFS) issued the auto industry's first-ever Asset-Backed Green Bond in the amount of $1.75 billion.
