First time listing a vehicle on Ebay so I want to get it right.  I have a first generation Toyota 4 Runner for sale.  This is a California truck, has only been in Virginia since February of 2012.  Major renovation work completed prior to my purchasing.  New paint job using original color in the last 2 years.  There are some dings and scratches, I will post pictures.  The only rust I can find is some minor surface rust from the scratches.  All new upholstery including the seats and door panels.  The chasis has roughly 301,000 miles on it but the motor has had extensive work done.  In the last couple of months I had the top end professionally rebuilt including new camshaft and rollers.  The shop advised that everything looked great, the timing chain and all the pulleys had already been replaced and in good condition.  The truck burns no oil, no smoke with startup, runs great.  Automatic transmission works fine.  Note, the truck is 4wd but someone at some point removed the front drive shaft.  Since we have never had it off road we didn't even realize it, runs fine without it.  Our shop would charge $250 ($150 part, $100 labor) to put one back on but I recommend checking with your mechanic.  There is an aftermarket stereo in the truck that works great but it appears only the front speakers work.  There are some accessory cables/jacks for extra components.  AC blows cold, heat works fine. I just put new tires on it ($700). In the back the cover for the rear window wiper motor is missing but the wiper works fine as well as the rear window.  The only other thing that I am aware of that does not work is the backlight for the heat and air switch doesn't work, at night you can't see those switches.   Truck currently has Ranchero adjustable shocks and rides like a light weight truck.  I bought this for my wife to use to commute to work and she doesn't like it, so it is time to sell.  I do have it advertised locally so I reserve the right to end early.  Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  Your are welcome to have it checked out (at your cost), I can provide the name of a couple local shops including the one who has done all of the work. Realize I am not a mechanic and I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability, and keep in mind it is a SUV that is over 20 year sold.  No warranties expressed or implied.   Thanks for looking!!!

Toyota FCV puts hydrogen fuel cell twist on ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Fri, Aug 22 2014

You've probably seen your fair share of Ice Bucket Challenge videos online this week, which are meant to raise money to fight amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often called "Lou Gehrig's Disease." Hopefully, you've seen ours. We've watched a lot of these videos, but haven't seen one that makes an alt-fuel point quite like a new video from Toyota. Julie Hamp, the CCO of Toyota North America, lost a sister-in-law to ALS last year, so for her the cause is personal. Instead of just dumping icy-cold water on her head, Hamp uses water from the FCV fuel cell vehicle parked next to her. Because, of course, a hydrogen fuel cell car emits nothing but water vapor. Toyota didn't run a lot of hydrogen through the car to collect water, it just got enough to top off the ice bucket. Using the water emissions from a hydrogen vehicle in a creative way is not a new trick. Two years ago, the California Fuel Cell Partnership made the point that you can drink the emissions (just like Mercedes-Benz did earlier this year), but admitted that "fuel cells produce about the same amount of water as gasoline vehicle – about 1/3 cup for a full day of driving." Still, for a good cause, we'll accept the mix of tap water and "emissions." Check out the video below, if you haven't had enough already. This content is hosted by a third party.

Toyota buys Daihatsu for small-car development

Sun, Jan 31 2016

Toyota is getting serious about small cars, but it's not going at it alone. Instead it's turning to its subsidiary Daihatsu, with which it will now share more resources and expertise. And in the process, it's acquiring the remaining stake in the smaller automaker. Daihatsu is a Japanese carmaker founded in its present form in 1951, but with roots that trace back as far as 1907. Toyota acquired a controlling interest of 51 percent in Daihatsu in 1988, bringing the company under its umbrella. But now it is raising its stake to 100 percent by a reciprocal share-swap agreement that will see Daihatsu's other shareholders take 0.27 shares in the larger company for each share in the smaller. As part of the new arrangement, the Daihatsu division will take the lead in developing new small cars, both for itself and for its parent company. Toyota in turn will also share key technologies with Daihatsu, and both will share each other's networks in emerging markets. The bottom line is that we can expect to see more small Toyotas and Scions developed and built by Daihatsu in the near future. The Daihatsu name may not be as familiar to Americans as some of Toyota's other brands. It briefly sold models like the Charade and Rocky in the United States under its own name in the late 1980s and early 90s. However US customers may be more familiar with those it built for the Scion brand, such as the Scion xB that was based on the Daihatsu Materia. While the realistic part of our brains force us to admit it's unlikely, the dreamer within us will hold out hope that the new arrangement could see a Scion version of the nimble little Daihatsu Kopen roadster make its way to our shores in the coming years. Toyota and Daihatsu to Strengthen Small Car Operations through Unified Global Strategy Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) and its subsidiary Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (Daihatsu) have reached an agreement whereby Daihatsu will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toyota by way of a share exchange (expected to be completed in August 2016). The purpose of the agreement is to develop of ever-better cars by adopting a unified strategy for the small car segment, under which both companies will be free to focus on their core competencies. Ultimately, this will help Daihatsu and Toyota to attain their joint goal of achieving sustainable growth. Additionally, the aim of the share exchange is to enhance the value of both brands.

2014 Toyota Corolla and Tundra production underway

Fri, 02 Aug 2013

After months of leaked photos and speculative reports, Toyota finally unveiled its 2014 Corolla to the world in early July at a star-studded California party. The confetti has been swept up and the champagne flutes washed and stored, and now the real work can begin: production. Toyota has announced that its new C-segment player has begun rolling off the lines at its plants in Mississippi and Ontario, Canada this week ahead of the planned start of sales in September. What's more, the refreshed 2014 Tundra pickup has also segued into production in San Antonio, Texas.
Corolla production in Mississippi is still a relatively recent phenomenon, with the plant having begun assembly of the outgoing model in the fourth quarter of 2011, while Toyota's Cambridge, Ontario plant has been churning out the compact volume king since 1988. Conversely, the Tundra has been in production at the Texas facility since 2006, and Toyota projects that the plant will build its milestone one-millionth new vehicle in September, right around the time the reworked fullsize pickup goes on sale.
