This listing is for my 1996 Toyota Tacoma. I am the original owner of this vehicle. It has 145k miles on it. It is currently in great working order.

It's never been in an accident, and the mechanical repairs over the years have been minimal. It's been dinged a few times in a parking lot a few times over the years, but nothing major.

I am selling it because I do not drive it much anymore, as I typically take my car to work. It has been primarily driven in Utah where I used to live. In 2010, I moved to Kansas where I currently live. Since that time, it hasn't been driven much other than to take it around the neighborhood or to drive it to the hardware store. In fact it hasn't been registered in Kansas even though I've lived here for almost 4 years. Shortly after we moved here, I purchased a car and have primarily driven it to and fro. Since I didn't drive it much, I never bothered to get it registered here in Kansas.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I will attempt to list everything that has happened to this truck since it was new: I have had the fuel pump replaced a couple of times - once in 2003, and again in 2007, as well as had the starter rebuilt about 10 yrs ago. But other than than, there has been no other needed mechanical repairs other than basic maintenance (tires, battery replacement, spark plugs, fluid replacement, etc.) There is a dent on the side of the bed on the passenger's side. I was hit in a parking lot about 10 years ago and never got it fixed. About 15 years ago, I was also hit in a parking lot and the original tailgate was damaged beyond repair. The current tailgate is an aftermarket product. I also never bothered to get the "TOYOTA" stenciling redone on the tailgate which is something that is standard for the 1996 model. The rear bumper was also damaged at the same time, but its damage appeared to be minimal, so I never bothered to fix it. You can see for yourself in the pictures.

It breaks my heart to sell it since I've had it for so long, but the practical side of me outweighs the emotional side of me. It just makes sense to sell it because the truck is not really adding any value by sitting there collecting dust. So, it's just time to sell it.

If you are interested in talking over the phone, please send me a note and we can arrange to talk. I will absolutely not turn over the keys or title until I have received a full payment or wire transfer that has been confirmed by my bank. Within 24 hours after the auction ends, I will require a $500 deposit. The rest will need to be paid within one week.

You are responsible to set up and pay for your own shipping arrangements. Having said that, I will attempt to be as accommodating as is reasonable, because I know it can't be too easy to ship a truck around the country.

Please let me know if you have questions.

Toyota confirms 2014 Highlander is in a New York state of mind

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Toyota has confirmed that it will be showing off the all-new 2014 Highlander at the New York Auto Show later this month. It's been a while since we've heard about the updated Highlander, but given just how long this thing has been on the market, we certainly hope that the list of changes will be more extensive than the new 2014 Toyota Tundra that debuted in Chicago last month.
Currently, the Highlander is offered in both naturally aspirated and hybrid versions, with front- and all-wheel drive. We don't expect the formula to change too much, since sales of the Japanese CUV are still steady - well in line with newer players in the segment like the Ford Explorer, Nissan Pathfinder and GM's Lambda triplets (Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave).
We'll have the full skinny on the new Highlander in the coming weeks. For now, scroll down to read Toyota's incredibly brief press blast.

DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
