Rare 1981 Toyota Trekker 4 Wheel Drive 5 Speed R22 Straight Axles New Fenders on 2040-cars
Year:1980
Mileage:209826
Location:
Bozeman, Montana, United States

This rare Toyota Trekker is one of 1500 built as collaboration between Winnebago and Toyota (I listed it under 4 Runner since eBay didn’t have a Trekker category and 1980 because eBay won’t take my VIN as a 1981). It was the forerunner to the Toyota 4Runner. From the cab back is all fiberglass, thus no rust. There is seating for two in the back. I am the second owner of this vehicle. I bought it in 1984 with 16,961 miles on it. It now has 209,826 miles. I have babied it for the 30 years I have had it. I have always taken the approach that I would keep it forever when having work done on it. Besides oil changes, I made a rule to have it worked on at dealers when possible. I have always used OME parts when they were available, including Toyota oil and air filters (and the new front fenders, which are now unavailable). In 30 years it has only failed to start twice. For a 33 year vehicle with 200k miles it is in amazing shape. It has many upgrades including a new radio (Retro Sound), driver’s seat (Recaro), back seat (Baja), new upholstery and headliner. I had the exhaust piping and muffler system replaced two summers ago. The engine was rebuilt in 2001 at 183,171 miles. The front seats have retractable shoulder and lap belts. The back seat has lap belts and headrests for two small people. It has good tires with plenty of tread left on them. BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A 30x9.50 R15LT. It has Smitty Built bumpers and rocker bars. It has a 2” receiver hitch and 7 pin plug socket for towing. It’s not much of a tow vehicle and I’ve only really used the hitch for a bike rack! It has a roof rack that comes with it. In 2010 I had a cheap paint job which is not holding up very well. I did put new OME front fenders on at that time so there is very little rust on the vehicle. It has lived out west so it hasn’t seen any salt but has endured so amazing winters. I have most of the original paperwork, owner’s manual, repair manual and some old flyers for the Trekker. This has been my only vehicle for the past 30 years! I know it inside and out and have taken very good care of it. I’ve never done serious 4 wheeling with it, only dirt roads and Montana winters. It’s been all over the US so a lot of the miles are highway. It is not perfect but it’s one of the nicer Trekkers still on the road. It is now in Bozeman Montana inside a storage facility but it has not been garaged its whole life. I highly recommend coming to Bozeman to pick it up and do some fishing or camping along the way. Summer will be here in a month or two! I am the second owner of this vehicle and bought it in 1984 from the dealer in Townsend Montana. I would prefer a cash deal but am open to other possibilities. It is certainly drivable but I would trailer it because of the front axle seals. Remember it is in Bozeman Montana. I used it as my daily driver until November 2013 when I garaged it. I thought I would do a show quality restoration and then my children turned into teenagers! I want them driving something with airbags! Thanks for looking and please contact me with any questions. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Japan supports hydrogen, Fools against fuel cells, BlueIndy controversy
Wed, Jun 25 2014Japan hopes to expand the use of hydrogen energy by subsidizing fuel cell vehicles, according to The Japan News. The trade ministry plans to include the subsidies in its 2015 budget to coincide with the expected launch of Toyota's Fuel Cell Vehicle and the Honda FCEV hydrogen car. By jump-starting purchases of hydrogen cars, Japan hopes that innovation and mass-production will get a boost and the cost of fuel cell vehicles will be competitive with gasoline-powered models by the year 2025. Japan plans to have 100 hydrogen fueling locations operating by March 2016, and wants to halve the cost of building those stations by 2020. The amount of the subsidies has not yet been set. Investing website The Motley Fool isn't quite as optimistic as Japan about hydrogen cars, and is instead bullish about Tesla Motors. The Fool points to Tesla's strong stock performance, and predicts future growth will come from more car models in the future - starting with the Model X - as well as the company's proposed Gigafactory for manufacturing batteries. If Tesla's charging technology continues to catch on, that only improves its financial prospects. The article has some harsh words, however, for hydrogen: "Fuel cells are an inferior automotive technology and for fundamental efficiency, cost, and infrastructure reasons always will be mere compliance gimmicks." Yeesh. As part of a program to build charging stations for the Indianapolis EV carsharing service BlueIndy, utility company Indianapolis Power & Light (IPL) wants to raise its electricity rates an average of 44 cents a month per residential customer to help pay for its share of the project. State consumer advocacy agency Indiana Office of Utility Consumer Counselor and consumer watchdog group Citizens Action Coalition oppose the plan, according to Greenfield, Indiana's Daily Reporter. The BlueIndy program, which is a partnership between the city of Indianapolis and battery manufacturer Bollore Group, will provide up to 500 cars for rent at 25 charging sites around the city. Those who oppose the rate hike call IPL a monopoly and say the amount of the increase is not allowed under state law and that the program wouldn't benefit working class and low-income citizens. A hearing regarding IPL's proposal is scheduled for July 23. A Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV will run the 2014 Asia Cross Country Rally, Hybrid Cars reports. The rally covers 1,367 miles of woods, swamps and mountains from Thailand to Cambodia.
2014 Toyota Tundra gets five grades priced from $25,920*
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Toyota has announced pricing details for its refreshed 2014 Tundra, with the fullsize pickup offered in five grades. Naturally, that doesn't include the buyer's choice of three cab styles, the option of two- or four-wheel drive, and a choice of a 4.0-liter V6 base engine or 4.6-liter and 5.7-liter V8s.
The base SR starts at $25,920, while the volume SR5 model starts at $29,465. Toyota notes that all SR5s ordered with the big V8 hold the line on pricing from 2013 while including a further $650 in standard equipment. The first of three high-end trims, Limited, starts at $36,940, while the Platinum and 1794 Edition both start at $44,270, with all prices subject to a $995 destination charge. Also noteworthy on the cost-savings front, Limited CrewMax 4x4 models are priced $2,000 less than their 2013 equivalents, (4x2 buyers save $1,900).
As is typical for a model as as customizable as a pickup, Toyota's pricing structure is far from simple. Adding the 5.7-liter V8 at one trim level can cost several hundred dollars more or less than another trim level - the same goes for adding four-wheel drive. So, rather than break out the Enigma Machine to try and decipher what options cost what on which trim, we've just rolled the whole pricing chart in. Scroll down for a look, including Toyota's full press release, and then check out our recent First Drive feature of the truck.
