I alright as much as I don't want to I'm putting up my MKIII for sale, I've been kidding my self thinking that it can be a reliable daily driver so I think its best if she goes on to someone with a little more time and the resources to take care of her. I got this car in November 2011 from a place called Corporate Auto Brokers in Cummings Georgia. with 104,000 miles on it, its at 116,000 now. I got it with a blown head gasket and didn't realize it until about march of last year when It really went and started to smoke and get hot on me. So I parked it and it sat all summer. I got the head resurfaced and valves done with the seals and a new Felpro gasket kit with ARP bolts. The work was done by my mechanic. Hes the head mechanic for a local trucking company and used to own a shop that specialized in Volkswagens back in the 80s. And a family friend, so I was with him while he worked on it almost the whole time. We got it finished up in September has been running great but there has been a few slight issues. Theres some sort of issue with the idle control valve cause it wants to lope when I first start her up but clears soon after that. And the coolant hose in the back of the head blew witch was replaced with new Gates hoses. Other than that there is a leak in the power steering system some where. It functions correctly but needs to be filled about every 2 weeks or so. My Mech thought it was a pressure line and bought one to replace it when he did the coolant hose but it didn't turn out to be that and I was in a hurry to get the car back and he works full time and then some at his job so I didn't have time to wait for him. Other than that I think it needs a wheel baring in the back. Oh and almost forgot me and a buddy replaced the diff back in November it was making a whirring noise and I put in that MotorCraft gear oil when we did the job. I forgot the miles on the replacement one but it was under 100,000. And I installed one of the old style Driftmotion Intercooler kits and when It the Head was done I got one of those ebay RDDPs witch has held up pretty good. Along with that I had a local exhaust shop build a full 3'' system with a high flow cat and to a Full Boar Performance muffler. Speaking of the turbo it boost pretty well but is smoking and is on its way out. That it for all the major mechanical stuff. Theres some smaller things that need done. I like it would be best to go though and replace all the coolant hoses, things like that I just don't have time to do it. And I just got a new set of tire on it. Ohsitus cheapys but I couldn't afford Dunlops like I had on there before like I wanted. And I have a used set of Tokico Illumina IIs with a eilbach pro kit waiting to be put on.
As for the body and interior they are in amazing shape. Out side the white its awesome and dose not look like 22 year old paint. no dents or dings. no major scratches or nicks. Only issue is on the front bumper. I had some little girl in a camaro in front of me on the interstate run over a piece of blown out semi tire and kicked it up at my front bumper where it cracked the black trim misshaping it a bit as well as take some of the paint off the bumper.
The interior is amazing. It had to have lived in a garage for most of its life. Cause its in beautiful shape. The dash In great shape no cracks or discoloration. The head liner looks about new. The matts are a little tired and same with the carpet its getting quite nappy but no major stains or flaws. only let down is the drivers seat. Having it sit out in my Mechs drive most of last summer I guess let a a crack in the seat started to get wider and I eventually tore it some how and its worked into good sized spot now. But other than that I describe it was if it was found in a cargo container from like 1996 as to the body and interiors' condition.

2014 Toyota Highlander
Tue, 17 Dec 2013Midsize crossovers like the Toyota Highlander tend to play a thankless role in the life of today's modern family.
That's really too bad. With the ability to hold several hyperactive kids and tons of cargo while keeping everyone safe and comfortable in all kinds of climate conditions day in and day out, they're true heroes in the lives of hundreds of thousands of families across the country. Yet their car-apathetic owners often immediately forget about them as soon as their work is done. And nearly all midsize crossovers are thoroughly ignored by enthusiasts whose eyes begin to glaze over at first mention of the phrase "third row."
Toyota is looking to soften the blow somewhat by giving its midsize crossover, the Highlander, a big redesign for the 2014 model year. With a bold new look, updated suspension and a refreshed interior focused on comfort and convenience, Toyota aims to make the Highlander sportier to drive and more striking in appearance, because, as the marketing team explains, "families are going places and they want to get there in style."
Ford barely edges surging Chrysler for Canadian sales crown in best year ever
Thu, Jan 8 2015The auto industry in the US showed strong results through much of 2014 with sales regularly growing year-over-year for many brands. That same trend carried over in the Great White North, as well. Canada posted its best numbers ever with 1.85 million units sold, up about 100,000 vehicles over 2013. The country nearly had a new market leader, too. The big winner among our neighbors to the north in 2014 was Ford with 291,951 vehicles sold, up 3 percent from 2013, according to Reuters. That success also handed the company the sales crown for the fifth consecutive year. In large part, the strong result came from the company's popular trucks, which represented about 80 percent of overall sales. "Ford moved into the number one position in September and didn't look back," said a note to clients by DesRosiers Automotive Consultants quoted by Reuters. However, the Blue Oval didn't exactly take an overwhelming lead for the year. The company nearly had to hand over the sales trophy to FCA after the company rallied in the latter part of the year. The Italian-American conglomerate had its best results ever to nip at the Ford's heels and move 290,004 units for 2014, a 12-percent improvement from last year. Jeep especially helped the bottom line with over 50-percent growth, according to Reuters. Only two other brands were able to break the 200,000-vehicle barrier in Canada for 2014. General Motors came in third place overall with 249,800 sales, up 6.3 percent. The combined Toyota and Lexus also barely jumped the hurdle with 200,851 units moved, a 2.8 percent improvement.
Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla
Tue, Jul 12 2016Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.
