Straight-body, no rust, fair paint. Good-running old Toyota. Was my daily driver until I retired this year. I drove it 60 miles per day and it never let me down over a 10-year period.

The driver's seat back has a wear hole in the edge. Otherwise, the interior is in fair condition with the exception of the headliner which is sagging and cracking on the dash panel on right side where sun shines directly on it. There are some stains on the cloth seat inserts but overall not bad.

The car starts, runs, drives, stops as it should. Transmission and clutch work perfectly. A/C works. Tires are good, nearly new. Engine is all original and does have an oil leak. It is more a nuisance than anything.

Driving it at interstate speeds to work every day it would leak a quart in a week. Driving in town and at more moderate speeds lessens the amount of leakage. It seems to be coming from the crankshaft seal. This is replaceable without engine removal. I just lived with it for 10 years rather than tinker with something that was working well otherwise.

In the photos, the engine has not been cleaned. You are looking at what you will get. There is a slight leak in the radiator header. Not enough to require adding coolant except maybe once in a few months.

The photos were taken yesterday and therefore represent the current state of the vehicle.

This is an old vehicle and I have been running 'antique' tags recently. This is a big savings in itself and is perfectly legal if you own more than one vehicle that is accessed and licensed.

Being an old vehicle with high miles, there is no guarantee. But....it IS a Toyota. My brother's Toyota truck is still running with over 300,0000 miles on it.

These old cars are fairly hard to find....especially in fair condition. Even if you had to work on the engine, it is a good investment. I wouldn't even consider selling if I wasn't retired and didn't have several other vehicles.

Please ask questions if the condition wasn't described sufficiently, etc.

NOTE: Does not have power windows as in description box...couldn't figure out how to keep the automatic robot from putting that in there!

Which car companies are creating new jobs in America?

Fri, Sep 22 2017

Since January, automakers have announced investments totaling $9.5 billion in U.S. plants, creating or retaining more than 12,000 jobs. Some of those companies have yet to announce just how many jobs will be created given their investments, with the location of many of those jobs still to be determined. Specifically, the 4,000-job Toyota-Mazda joint venture plant still hasn't announced its location, with numerous states jockeying for it. Hyundai has plans to invest $1 billion but has not announced a jobs number yet. And likewise Ford is investing $1.2 billion in Michigan without specifying a number of jobs. Volvo this week announced plans to add a second line to its factory under construction in South Carolina, spending another $500 million and adding 2,500 jobs to the 2,000 it was already trying to fill. Then Thursday, Daimler announced a $1 billion expansion to its facility in Tuscaloosa, Ala., to produce EV batteries and electric SUVs, a move that will add 600 jobs to its hiring this year. Above, we've created a handy pie chart showing you which companies have announced new jobs and how many there will be.

Toyota launches new Pixis Epoch kei car in Japan

Sat, 12 May 2012

Kei cars may be small in size, but they're big business in Japan. The latest arrival to the category is the little hatch you see above, the Toyota Pixis Epoch.
It's the fourth vehicle produced by the Daihatsu division but sold under the Toyota brand. As with other keis, power comes from a 660cc engine. It's mated to a continuously variable transmission driving either just the front wheels or all four. In both configurations, the Pixis Epoch features a stop-start system that helps its emissions and fuel efficiency figures come in well below even the Japanese government's stringent standards.
The whole package measures just 3,395 mm (133 inches) long, 1,475 mm (58 inches) wide and 1,500 mm (59 inches) tall, but offers a relatively spacious and utile interior, plus a tight turning radius of just 4.4 meters. Pricing ranges from 795,000 to 1.2 million yen - that's less than $10,000 (and no more than $15k). Further details in the press release after the jump.

Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007

Sat, 21 Sep 2013

Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
