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!!!

Santa swaps his sleigh for a Ferrari-powered Toyota

Fri, Dec 23 2016

A Ferrari-powered Toyota 86 is sure to garner a bit of attention, as well it should. We've been paying attention throughout this build, so it should be no surprise then that Santa did as well. He's ditched his red sleigh for the Gumout GT4586 in this video. If you've been following along, you know that Ryan Tuerck and Gumout built this completely bonkers machine that's far more exciting than some previous Japanese/Italian mash-up automobiles. Donut Media has been doing their part to document and promote every stage of the process. This new video is filled with the gratuitous amounts of lights, noise, and tire smoke that Donut is known for. We don't know the conversion from horsepower to reindeerpower, but the GT4586 should provide plenty of oomph for Santa's Christmas trek.

Toyota wants improved crash scores with midcycle facelifts

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

The performances of some Toyotas in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) regimen of crash tests leave something to be desired. Consider the small overlap frontal crash test: only six Toyota, Lexus and Scion vehicles have undergone the new test, yet all but one of them received a poor rating. Osama Nagata, CEO of Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America Inc., says midcycle vehicle updates are in the works to address the safety issues brought to light by the IIHS test, Automotive News reports. He confirmed that the RAV4 is getting safety updates following its crash test performance last month, but he didn't name any other models.
All three Toyotas that were tested - 2013 RAV4, 2012-2013 Prius V, 2012-2013 Camry - received poor ratings. The 2007-2012 Lexus ES 350 and 2006-2013 IS 250/350 also received poor ratings. The only other Toyota Motor Corp. vehicle to score better than poor is the 2014 Scion TC. It received an acceptable rating in the small overlap frontal crash test and is the only recent vehicle in Toyota's line-up to get the IIHS Top Safety Pick+ rating.
The small overlap front crash test measures the safety of a car when its front left corner is strikes an object during an accident, bypassing traditional crumple zones, which deform in a way to protect passengers. In 2009, automakers were alerted to the forthcoming addition of the test, which was first implemented last year, IIHS spokesman Russ Rader says. They responded with differing intensity, he says, pointing out that Subaru and Honda started incorporating design changes early on so their cars would perform well in the tests.

Toyota Auris gets new Touring Sports variant

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Toyota showed off the Touring Sports version of the Auris next to the newly introduced Auris Hybrid at last year's Paris Motor Show, but didn't say much about it. Six months later, just ahead of the Geneva Motor Show, the company is crowing about that wagon going on sale with the Hybrid Synergy Drive, creating the Auris Touring Sports Hybrid.
The hauling version of the exceptionally popular Auris hatchback doesn't just add a hybrid wagon to the compact segment, Toyota says it offers class-leading load capacity of 1,658 liters with the Easy-Flat one-touch rear seats down. With the rear seats up, it offers 530 liters. The little big gulp is possible because the hybrid batteries have been placed under the rear seats instead of being in the luggage area.
It looks the same as the hatchback save for the fact that it's 285 millimeters (11.2 inches) longer behind the C pillar, has a redesigned tailgate and a lower load floor. Engines beyond the hybrid will match the rest of the lineup: 1.3-liter and 1.6-liter gasoline engines and a 1.4-liter D-4D diesel. There's a chance we'll see it in Geneva, if we don't there's a press release below to tell you all about it.
