I am selling this car for my 70yr old mother. My mother purchased this certified used Toyota on October 10, 2012. My mothers neighbor works at the dealership and knew she was looking for a "like new" car. When my mother purchased this car she had the dealership add full leather interior (including door cards), tinted windows and a 3yr extended warranty. My mother also had custom coco mats made and purchased Toyota cargo nets and floor liner for the trunk area. The car has just been serviced including a synthetic oil change and new air and cabin filters. At the time of service it was recommended that she replace the battery(5yr warranty) and have a new water pump installed. At this time a new thermostat was also installed and a full cooling system flush was done adding all new fluids. The car has a matching set of Defender XT Michelin tires with 70%+ tread life left. The cars warranty is through National Auto Care and is good through October 10, 2015 or 114,541 miles whichever comes first, the warranty can be used at the mechanic of your choice and is fully transferrable. The car has no warning lights illuminated, needs nothing and is ready to go. I cannot stress how nice this garage kept car is, I feel comfortable saying you will not finder a nicer one. I have included many High Resolution pictures and will be happy to take any others you request. The only reason this car is being sold is that I gave my mother my Jaguar when purchasing myself a new car. Please feel free to contact me via email or phone at 405-205-8969. This auction could end at any time as the car is also being offered for sale locally.

8 automakers, 15 utilities collaborate on open smart-charging for EVs
Thu, Jul 31 2014We're going to lead with General Motors here. GM is one of eight automakers working with 15 utilities and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) at developing a "smart" plug-in vehicle charging system. Why did we start with GM? Because it's the first automaker whose press release we read that mentioned the other seven automakers. Points for sharing. For the record, the collaboration also includes BMW, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Chrysler, Mitsubishi and Ford. The utilities include DTE Energy, Duke Energy, Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas & Electric. The idea is to develop a so-called "demand charging" system in which an integrated system lets the plug-ins and utilities communicate with each other so that vehicle charging is cut back at peak hours, when energy is most expensive, and ramped up when the rates drop. Such entities say there's a sense of urgency to develop such a system because the number of plug-in vehicles on US roads totals more than 225,000 today and is climbing steadily. There's a lot of technology involved, obviously, but the goal is to have an open platform that's compatible with virtually any automaker's plug-in vehicle. No timeframe was disclosed for when such a system could go live but you can find a press release from EPRI below. EPRI, Utilities, Auto Manufacturers to Create an Open Grid Integration Platform for Plug-in Electric Vehicles PALO ALTO, Calif. (July 29, 2014) – The Electric Power Research Institute, 8 automakers and 15 utilities are working to develop and demonstrate an open platform that would integrate plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) with smart grid technologies enabling utilities to support PEV charging regardless of location. The platform will allow manufacturers to offer a customer-friendly interface through which PEV drivers can more easily participate in utility PEV programs, such as rates for off-peak or nighttime charging. The portal for the system would be a utility's communications system and an electric vehicle's telematics system. As the electric grid evolves with smarter functionality, electric vehicles can serve as a distributed energy resource to support grid reliability, stability and efficiency. With more than 225,000 plug-in vehicles on U.S. roads -- and their numbers growing -- they are likely to play a significant role in electricity demand side management.

Tue, 30 Jul 2013Raising A White Flag To The Competition
We all benefit from highly competitive battles. In the automotive sector, few campaigns are so closely fought as the decades-long struggle for supremacy in the fullsize half-ton pickup truck segment. The Ford F-150 has dominated for ages, but Chevrolet, Ram and GMC have been closing the gap with freshly redesigned trucks that are rocking the industry.
Today's half-ton trucks are better than they've ever been, and we have fierce competition to thank for that.
