PLEASE WATCH THE COMPREHENSIVE WALKAROUND AND TEST DRIVE VIDEO!



I am the original owner of this 2001Toyota Tacoma, double cab, SR5, V6 4 WD with an automatic transmission.  It has 78,769 miles. The truck has never been hit. This truck has always been garaged, even at work. The oil and filter were changed when they replaced the frame. The truck has the following options: trailer tow package, aluminum extend-a-bed, over the rail bedliner, sliding rear window, aluminum alloy wheels, a/c, power windows, power door locks, cruise control, stereo w/cd player.

I bought the truck in January of 2001 and drove it until June 2004 when I retired. It had just about 50,000 miles when I retired and since then I drove it approx. 3,900 miles a year since it now has 78,769 miles.  I also have the original winder sticker, sales brochure and maintenance records. This truck is only for someone who understands the Toyota recall for rusty frames. Again, this truck has never been in an accident. This truck has a new frame, brake lines, leaf spring, lower control arms etc. Toyota replaced many more parts that are detailed in the bill from Toyota.  The bill which I have, details every part that was replaced at their cost.  The bill was $12,661.00, Toyota paid the entire bill.  I'll explain how this came about.  I received a recall notice in September, 2013 for the spare tire carrier. I made an appointment for October. When the dealership inspected the truck they told me that my truck qualified for the frame recall. It wasn't until January, 2014 that they did the job. It is very impressive to look under the truck and see all the brand new metal.  At first I was worried about what kind of job they would do. A very good friend of mine who works for Toyota in Brooklyn, and is a mechanic who he himself replaces the frames, assures me that they replace so many of these frames that they have it down pat and rarely if ever is there a problem. My truck drives fine, no squeaks or rattled.

Once I brought the truck home and parked it in the garage, I only drove it around my neighborhood on nice days to the keep the fluids moving.  I didn't want to subject the new frame to the road salt. Since I don't drive the truck much, I always treated the gas with stabil at each fill up.  I replaced the tires at 62,000 miles with the same tires since I got such good miles out the of the original ones.  The tires have less than 20,000 miles on them. The alloy wheels have some pitting that is common. In the first 3 years Toyota replaced the rear bumper twice, apparently there was some kind of plating defect, the current bumper is perfect. Nothing has ever broken on this truck, so other than normal maintenance, which was one either by Toyota or me, it has been trouble free. There isn't any rust on the body, there aren't any oil or fluid leaks at all. I did replace the front rotors, caliper and pads in 2009. There is nothing wrong or broken with this truck. As you know, these trucks are known as being bullet proof. It shifts fine, idles smoothly and the 4wd engages and works perfectly. The interior is pretty much in perfect condition. There aren't any rips, tears, stains etc. I have aftermarket floor mats on top of the factory carpeted ones. The exterior is almost perfect. The top of the drivers fender has a ding so small the camera won't pick it up as are some very minor surface scratches on the driver side rear quarter, they can probably be buffed out. When Toyota put the last bumper on they installed it about 1/8" too high and the bottom of the tailgate touched the black plastic on the top of the bumper and nicked the bottom of the tailgate. I trimmed off the part of the plastic that was touching and it has been fine for at least 10 years.

I am selling my truck because I ordered a 2014 Silverado. Originally I was going to keep the Tacoma, however it doesn't make any sense to keep both.  Whoever buys this truck will be getting an exceptionally clean, well maintained EXTREMELY LOW MILEAGE vehicle that very rarely sat outside.

Toyota Prius remains best-selling vehicle in California, wireless charging tests underway

Thu, Feb 20 2014

About one in every nine new cars in the US are sold in the California. If we're just looking at the four Toyota Prius hybrid variants, then the number becomes closer to one in three. Tesla Model S battery-electric vehicle sales? Try one in 2.7. For the second straight year, the Prius was the best-selling car in the Golden State. Toyota sold 69,728 Priuses there, almost a third of the more than 234,000 sold in the US in 2013. Prius sales in California alone were up almost 13 percent. And Toyota's ready to build upon that momentum with a new version of the Prius Plug-in Hybrid, saying that it's testing a wireless recharging system in Japan's Aichi Prefecture and will start similar tirals stateside later this year. We'll make the wild prediction that some of those tests, which involves magnetic resonance, will be in California. Meanwhile, Tesla's numbers were, in their own way, were more impressive. The California-based automaker sold 8,347 of its Model S units in the Golden State out of about 22,300 nationwide in 2012, Bloomberg News reports. In all, advanced-powertrain vehicles accounted for 9.3 percent of California new-vehicle sales, compared to 3.8 percent for the country, Bloomberg says, citing Hybrid Cars and Baum & Associates. Check out Toyota's press release on its California sales below. Prius Medals In The Golden State Toyota Prius is best-selling vehicle line in California Wireless charging testing for Prius Plug-in TORRANCE, Calif., Feb. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Prius took home the gold in 2013 as the most popular vehicle-line in California for the second year in a row. The Prius Family (Prius Liftback, Prius v, Prius c and Prius Plug-in) took the podium in both 2012 and 2013 as the best-selling California vehicle name plate. 69,728 drivers hit the road in 2013, according to the California Auto Outlook Report, while 61,893 Californians joined the family in 2012. In the Golden State, the Prius Family outsells all other hybrid competitors combined. California drivers lead the country in adoption of vehicles powered, either wholly or partially, by electricity. 9.3% of vehicles sold in the state run on some form of electricity, according to the report. But despite the growing number of hybrid competitors, Toyota's hybrid leadership remains unmatched. In fact, one out of every two hybrids in California carries the Prius name plate.

2014 Toyota Tundra appears with revised styling, same mechanicals

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Toyota has pulled the curtain back on its 2014 Tundra, showing a truck that has gotten its most significant refresh since its launch as a 2007 model. For better or worse, however, the changes that Toyota has made to the fullsize pickup are mostly cosmetic, with the underpinnings of the vehicle staying unchanged.
The most obvious revision for 2014 is to the bluff front fascia of the truck. There's a new, taller squared-off grille decorating the Tundra's nose, along with a revised, three-part front bumper design. The optional black grille-frame strikes us as an acquired taste, to say the least, but other models, like the Limited above, is all clad in chrome. Fenders and wheel wells are more square than in the out-going truck, too. Perhaps most significant is the revised bed design, which Toyota calls "all-new," with new sheet metal on the sides, a revised tailgate and a very subtle integrated spoiler.
Inside, Toyota has given buyers some new seats and a new-look instrument panel. A backup camera (always handy on big trucks) is now standard equipment on all grades, as is Bluetooth connectivity. Blind spot monitoring is a new, optional feature as well. In all, as with the exterior mods, the changes in-cabin are far more evolutionary than revolutionary.

Recharge Wrap-up: LA Auto Show may feature updated Cadillac ELR, Uber expands Chicago HQ

Tue, Sep 30 2014

A Kentucky man has converted his 1939 Dodge pickup to an electric vehicle. Al Gajda of Lexington built the electric truck, which he now uses as his daily driver. "I take advantage of any excuse to drive it; just banging around town, errands, short runs on the interstate, delivering my granddaughter to school in the morning," he says. It is powered by a lithium-ion phosphate battery, which is mounted in a wooden box on the truck bed, and gets about 100 miles per charge. Read more at the Lexington Herald-Leader.
