Her name is Lucy and she is one tough babe. She enjoys long drives along the beach, breathing in the mountain air, road trips to anywhere, camping and taking good care of her driver.
Runs great, drives great. Don't
let the mileage fool you, you will watch the odometer go all the way back around to 0 on this
car and she'll keep going. These engines
last forever! This is a very reliable
car and I have most of the maintenance records.
The only other owner was my mother before she gave the car to me. Before clicking "buy now" please email me for my phone # to ask
questions or set up a time to view – TakeRedHome@aol.com. Feel free to bring your mechanic and inspect the car on-site or
we can take it to a mechanic of your choice. Again, the car is located in Westminster, CA. Here are the specifics on the car: 4 cylinder 4 speed Automatic transmission Clean title 247k miles
Pros: - Great gas mileage! - 26 City/33 HWY - Engine and transmission in great shape - Ice cold A/C! - Brand new CD/USB/AUX AM FM radio - hook your iPod up to it! - Polk Audio UV resistant speakers - K&N air filter (improved performance, never needs replacing) - Well maintained - The interior is very clean and in great shape. No tears in the seats - Just passed smog in July - Just did oil change
Cons: The car is in great working condition with normal wear and tear. Only minor inexpensive maintenance should be performed soon: - replace left outer CV boot - 2 new tires - alignment
Other negatives to note about the car: - There is a slight oil leak which will take some labor to repair as it's between the engine and tranny. The leak is not bad at all, just a drop or 2 per day. As long as you continue to change the oil regularly, every 3K miles or so, you will not get low on oil. But if you don't want oil on your driveway, you'll want it fixed. - Rear driver side fender bent slightly. This happened shortly after buying the car in ’93 and it's not causing any problems, it's merely aesthetics. No frame damage. - Rear bumper paint is peeling. - Brakes squeak briefly sometimes when cold. - Every once in a while the power steering pump hums slightly so it will eventually need to be replaced down the road but most likely not for a while. Mechanic couldn't couldn't say when, could be a year or 2 or longer. The power steering works great now and the pump does not need replacing at this time. - The dome light works, it just does not come on when
driver’s side door is open, but it comes on when the other doors are open. If you need the light on with driver’s door
open, simply switch it to “on”.
There you have it. Honestly, this is a great car that won’t let you down. If you take good care of her like I did, she will take good care of you. |

Toyota vows to fix poor Camry crash test result that irked Consumer Reports
Tue, 10 Dec 2013Many Toyota vehicles haven't been performing well in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) small overlap frontal crash test, and the Camry is one of them. The 2012 and 2013 Camry both received "Poor" ratings, IIHS' lowest rating, in the test, which spurred Consumer Reports to take the car off its "Recommended" list. In response to the low ratings in the small overlap frontal test, and in a bid to maintain its best-seller status, Toyota will make changes to the Camry to improve its IIHS safety rating and to enhance its design, The Detroit News reports.
The Camry performed well in the moderate overlap frontal, side, roof strength and head restraints and seats crash tests, receiving "Good" ratings, IIHS' highest rating, in all four tests. That was enough for IIHS to award it a Top Safety Pick rating, just not TSP+.
Bill Fay, head of Toyota's US division, reportedly says, "It's still a five-star car. It still does very well in all the IIHS tests. It did not in [the small overlap frontal crash test], and we're busy making the necessary adjustments so that we can address that."
Toyota says freezing temps pose zero problems for fuel cell vehicles
Fri, Feb 7 2014Hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric vehicles are not afraid of one thing – freezing cold weather. That's the latest from two companies that have been driving the cars in frostbite temperatures in the Northeast recently. Proton Onsite runs a fleet of 10 Toyota FCHV-adv fuel cell vehicles out of its Connecticut headquarters and discovered that the snow and three-degree temperature didn't restrict range. Mark Schiller, Proton vice president of business development, said in a statement that, "I went out to my Toyota FCHV-adv and brushed off a foot of snow before starting the car right up. No problem." While electric vehicles can have their driving range reduced in extreme temperatures (but not always), Proton Onsite hasn't seen that happen in the Polar Vortex. They're performing flawlessly in freezing temperatures even with the heaters blasting, and are continuing to hit their range of about 300 miles, Schiller said. Air Products, based on Allentown, PA, has had a similar experience. The FCHV-adv has had great performance under harsh conditions, according to Nick Mittica, commercial manager, hydrogen energy systems. Employees drove the fuel cell vehicle during one of Pennsylvania's worst winters in recent memory and, you guessed it, "No problem." Toyota says that has put its fuel cell fleet through the wringer, logging millions of miles over the last decade, to make sure performance can be delivered within extreme weather conditions. Toyota engineers spent weeks testing cold weather start up, performance and durability up in Yellowknife, Canada. Temperature can reach -30 degrees Celsius (-22 degrees Fahrenheit) at that location. On other end of the scale, Toyota was able to verify that its FCVs can handle driving through heat in Death Valley national park. We heard the same from Mercedes the other day, too. Extreme weather functionality is apparently something automakers want to make absolutely sure the public doesn't worry about. Jan. 30, 2014 – Record low temperatures have stranded many East Coast drivers, but not those driving a Toyota fuel cell hybrid vehicle. Connecticut-based Proton Onsite, which operates a fleet of ten Toyota FCHV-adv fuel cell vehicles, says that even in single digit temperatures, the FCHV-adv shows no signs of frostbite. "We had another snow storm Tuesday night and this morning the temperature was 3 degrees," says Mark Schiller, Proton vice president of business development.
Toyota will introduce several new battery EVs by 2025
Fri, Jun 7 2019Toyota has been a champion of hybrids and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, but in the near future it will bet heavily on battery EVs as well. The most recent statement from the Japanese manufacturer details there are several new BEVs in the pipeline. Toyota has stated its intent for half of its global 2025 sales to consist of electrified vehicles. Plans include selling 4.5 million hybrids, which perform well in Toyota sales metrics already Í— Reuters says 80% of global hybrid vehicle sales are Toyotas. But 1 million vehicles will be EVs with either battery or hydrogen fuel cell power. From 2020 on, the carmaker will introduce at least 10 new BEVs, six of which will be based on the electrified version of its TNGA platform, dubbed e-TNGA, and sold globally. There will be a host of electric SUVs and crossovers in different sizes, along with a sedan and an MPV. Toyota says its EV plans must include a stable supply of batteries, as well as improved battery life and durability and proper reuse. It has found partners in China's CATL and electric carmaker BYD to help with battery availability. Earlier this week, Toyota announced that it is planning a jointly developed, all-wheel-drive battery electric crossover together with Subaru, and the resulting vehicle will probably be one of the six new models mentioned above. Subaru is also likely to benefit from the joint development deal, as it is a bit player in large parts of the world, and a partner like Toyota will come in handy when coming up with completely new vehicles.
