We are selling our 1998 Toyota RAV4. We are sad to see her go, but we just bought a new Kia Soul and are putting this one up for sale. It has all wheel drive, automatic 4-speed transmission, cold A/C, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, power sliding/tilting moonroof, keyless entry, alarm system, factory tint, alloy wheels, AM/FM stereo with cassette and CD player, good speakers, rear tires at 80%, front tires at 50%, spare tire is new (tire has never touched the ground), still has the factory suitcases that attached to inside of rear door (see photo). Rear seats flip forward for large cargo space (see photo). This car has been in our family for 9 years, we have taken good care of it, we are nonsmokers, and we don't take it off paved roads. There is no rust, and the car has never been flooded. Oil is changed regularly; CV joints and front struts replaced January 2014. This has been a reliable car for us--we do not hesitate to take it on road trips.  It has a current inspection sticker and is ready to drive anywhere.  The cruise control works but the on/off switch is broken (I can show you how to use the cruise control when you pick up the car). The hinge on the center armrest is broken, so the armrest lifts off instead of swinging back (see photo). There is a dent and scratch on the hood over the passenger headlight (see photo). There is a chip in the windshield (see photo) but it is not in the driver's line of sight, and the clear coat on the roof is peeling in a spot (see photo) but it is not visible unless you're 6'6" tall. The check engine light is on. It was on when we bought it and we replaced the oxygen sensor and it went off. Two years later the light came back on for the same reason. Our mechanic suggested we just let the light stay on and keep the $250 and it has been on ever since. The rear door squeaks.  This is a city car so it has its fair share of dings and scratches (see photos). A couple of years ago our neighbor dented in the fender while the car was parked in front of our house--this was repaired professionally (paid for by insurance). Otherwise, the car has not been involved in any accidents. There are no stains or tears on the upholstery. The driver's floormat is missing; the other three are there plus the large cargo mat is there, too. We have clean title in hand, car is ready to go! I put the eBay app on my phone so I'll be able to answer questions fairly quickly if you have one. Thanks for looking!

2014 Toyota Highlander greets the world with NYC debut

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Toyota has pulled the wraps off its all-new, 2014 Highlander in New York this morning, giving Americans a first look at what is sure to be a heavyweight in the mid-size crossover segment.
The new third-generation Highlander will come with the buyer's choice of three different powertrain options. The base model will be powered by a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission with front-wheel-drive. Next up the ladder is a 3.5-liter V6, also mated to the 6AT, which can be had with either front-or all-wheel-drive. Finally, the Highlander Hybrid will be equipped with all-wheel drive, its 3.5-liter V6 mated to an electric motor, all hooked up to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The automaker has not released any specs for fuel economy or output yet, though we're promised increases in both power and efficiency.
While not a revolution in terms of styling, Toyota has cleaned up the bodywork for the new model, offering a crisp, conservative look for the slightly larger Highlander. The vehicle is some three inches longer and an inch-and-a-half wider than the outgoing model, yet it has a lower roofline. Black plastic-clad wheel arches make an attempt to butch up the crossover, though to our eyes, the Highlander still has the look of a minivan around the rear view.

Union to launch Toyota organization drive in Canada

Sun, 12 Jan 2014

Toyota may be heading toward some labor issues in the Great White North, as employees at a pair of Canadian Toyota factories may be set for a certification vote. The Unifor union, which was the result of a merger last year between the Canadian Auto Workers and the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers union, will be holding the vote.
Over 40 percent of the employees at the Woodstock and Cambridge, Ontario factories have signed union cards, cresting the minimum percentage required to instigate a legal certification vote, according to Reuters. The Woodstock factory is responsible for RAV4 production, while Cambridge builds the Lexus RX350 and RX450h, as well as the Toyota Corolla. The two factories employ nearly 7,000 people.
It's unclear when the union will hold a certification vote at the two factories, but what is rather clear are the worker complaints. Employees are concerned about workers being hired on temporary contracts which lack the benefits of full employment, John Aman, head of organizing for Unifor, told Reuters.

Tesla pulling plug on Toyota RAV4 EV battery deal

Mon, 12 May 2014

The future of the Toyota RAV4 EV appears to be in doubt. Tesla supplies the EVs battery packs, and it says that production ends later this year.
"Toyota is expected to end the current RAV4 EV model this year," Tesla said in its quarterly financial filing obtained by Bloomberg. "Our production activities under this program are expected to end in 2014," the company said.
This timeline fits closely with the original production plans for the RAV4 EV. When the $100-million project was first announced, Tesla said that it expected to supply battery packs for the vehicle from 2012 to 2014. Building components for the Japanese automaker continues to bring in money, though. In the company's Q1 2014 letter to shareholders, it said: "Automotive revenue included $15 million of Toyota powertrain sales." According to Bloomberg, Toyota has sold just 1,594 RAV4 EV models from 2012 through April 2014. Initially, the business had estimated that it would sell 2,600 units of the electrified crossover.
