1996 Toyota Rav4 Base Sport Utility 2-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Fountain Hills, Arizona, United States

My wife call this "we have too many toys - sale!" On my bucket list has always been a 2 door Rav 4, which I see when we travel to St Barts and thought if I could find an original low mile one, maybe we could tow it behind our motorhome! I collect small cars and found this one recently in Reno Nevada.
We went there and drove it home, and checked it off my bucket list! It runs and drives as it should, but my days of driving a manual trans car for very long are over with bad knees and bad shoulders! It would be perfect for towing behind an RV. It it has a manual trans, 4 wheel drive, has Air Conditioning, Power Steering and brakes. Factory radio. This car has 65891 miles, which I believe to be correct and car fax also documents thru its history. No interior wear or pedal pad wear at all. Paint is all original and in average condition with the exception of the rear swing out door has been replaced with a used one a long time ago and the rear sill showing signs of repair. Car fax does not show any damage as the owner probably took care of it himself. Original decals on the sides of the Rav are in good shape as well. No rust and the undercarriage is very clean due to it living in the Reno area most of its life until I brought it to Arizona. The paint on the roof is getting a little thin in a few spots where yo can see a shadow from the factory black primer showing thru. I put new tires on it before driving it home and had the oil changed as it was due according to the sticker on the windshield. There are no service records at all on the Rav but it looks like it was taken care of really well. It was the cleanest low mile one I could find and was looking for a very long time. Inspections are welcome and encouraged. Thanks, Glenn PS, I added a photo from CarFax page showing more detail on the miles than AutoCheck shows for some reason. |

Toyota's future fuel cell vehicle lineup revealed?
Wed, Aug 26 2015Being an Olympic sponsor from 2017 through 2024 puts Toyota in the international limelight, and the company is preparing a fleet of efficient, cutting-edge vehicles just in time for the Tokyo games in 2020. At least eight new models could be on the way, according to Automotive News citing Best Car from Japan. Three of those might make use of the hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain developed for the Mirai. While many of these fuel cells are going into Japan-only vehicles, one of them could come here. Reiterating earlier rumors, Automotive News reports a hydrogen-powered Lexus LS is set for 2018. It could be even lighter than the current hybrid model, too. A similar version of the Toyota Crown would launch there in 2019 and possibly an FCEV Estima minivan, too. Beyond fuel cells, Toyota also intends to put the JPN Taxi Concept from the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show into production in time for the games, according to Automotive News. For 2017, the brand's flagship Century is also expected to adopt a hybrid V8 to replace the current V12, as well. Plus, many of its Japanese-market vans are also due for updates. All of this is certainly a massive undertaking to be ready in time, but Tokyo want to use the games as a chance to show the city as an innovative, international destination. Automotive News predicts Toyota could supply thousands of vehicles to haul all of the athletes and dignitaries around. In addition, the Japanese government wants 6,000 fuel cell vehicles on the road and 35 refueling stations up an running for the games. Related Video:
Toyota pondering high-performance GT86 hybrid?
Fri, 08 Mar 2013From what Autocar has to say, Toyota has even more plans for the GT86 beyond the convertible concept we just saw at the Geneva Motor Show. Along with a planned midcycle facelift, Toyota is reportedly looking at how to pack some extra ponies under the coupe's hood, and while there has already been a lot of talk about superchargers and turbochargers, it sounds like a performance-boosting hybrid system could also be in the works.
Talking to Toyota chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, Autocar has learned that the automaker is considering an electrical motor assist for the sporty coupe to improve performance without harming fuel economy. In attempting to keep weight - and, presumably, costs - down, the article mentions the use of a system closer to what Honda uses for its Integrated Motor Assist rather than a full Hybrid Synergy Drive system used in current Toyota hybrids. Tada says the added weight of the system could be offset by weight reduction, while aerodynamic changes and a lower center of gravity could improve the car's handling.
No word yet on whether a mild hybrid system would find its way to North America's Scion FR-S - let alone its Subaru BRZ twin - but the thought is certainly an intriguing one.
2015 Toyota Yaris
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Advertising firms have done an admirable job convincing consumers that the easiest way to find a best-in-segment car or truck is by looking at a few key metrics. In the most elementary terms, the vehicle with the highest horsepower, most gears in its transmission housing, lowest acceleration times and best fuel economy most certainly must be the class benchmark.
Yet as the commercials and billboards continue to drive that deceitful message, Toyota is betting shoppers in the subcompact segment are a bit more discerning. The Japanese automaker has just launched its updated 2015 Yaris, a three- and five-door offering that bucks the innovation and performance trends by offering what Toyota feels that entry-level buyers actually desire - reliability, practicality and a low sticker price.
It's sweltering in the tropical Hawaiian sun as I check out the deeply refreshed 2015 Yaris SE. This five-door hatchback, a range-topping version of the company's subcompact "sporty hatch" (Toyota's words, not mine), builds on the new-in-2012 generation by wearing new front and rear fascias, redesigned headlights and some attractive new wheels for the upcoming model year.
