This is a very clean 2001 truck.  Engine and transmission including 4X4 works and runs out great.  It does need an O2 sensor which is about $230 from dealership.  I have an OEM replacement rear bumper that just needs to be put on.  The only thing that has gone out was the power steering pump.  That was replaced in 2007.  This was my wife's truck so it was hardly used as a truck.  It has been pampered throughout most its life.  I am only selling it because I am in military with an hour commute to work so I am looking for something in the higher MPG range.  It has been a fantastic truck and completely checked out by a local dealership for any recalls or announcements and passed with no problem.  Other then getting bumped in the bumper, hence the need for the bumper, it has never been in an accident. 

In 2008 we had a bed cover installed.  It is one that is hard plastic material but light enough that one person can remove it and store it.  That was about $750 installed.  The truck also has an alarm system installed but I disconnected it.  I could not figure out how to set sensitivity and it kept going off.  It was easier to just disconnect.

We bought the truck as a lease buy back in 2005 from the bank that originally leased it so I guess we are the second owner.

As far as payment and shipping.  All shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.  All funds will be through PayPal or certified check or cash.  The title and truck will not be released until payment has fully cleared.  I prefer cash or certified check to lower PayPal charges.

Mazda's new Mexican plant capacity rises to 230,000

Sat, 05 Jan 2013

After the turmoil of last year, 2013 is getting off to a much better start for Mazda. The company has issued a release indicating that the forthcoming plant in Salamanca, Mexico has had its production capacity raised even though it isn't scheduled to go online until March 2014. The original plans called for a 140,000-unit capacity, 90,000 of that allotted for the Mazda2 and Mazda3, the remaining 50,000 for a small car Mazda would build for Toyota that would be based on the Mazda2. The new plans call for raising that by 90,000 units to a total of 230,000 units within two years, by the end of March 2016, and it looks like it will all go toward Mazda production to satisfy growing demand for Skyactiv vehciles. The Mexican plant's opening will be the return of Mazda manufacturing to North America, after Mazda6 production was moved back to Japan last year.
More good news for the company is that it projects 10 billion yen ($114 million) in net income for the financial year that will end in March. That would be a welcome turnaround from the 100-billion-yen loss in the previous financial year, part of a series of three annual losses in a four-year span.
You'll find the press release with the factory update below.

Toyota still wants Tesla's battery help, still evaluating RAV4 EV program

Wed, May 28 2014

Tesla Motors said earlier this month that the agreement it has with Toyota to supply battery packs for the Toyota RAV4 EV SUV would be finished by the end of the year. The deal is done, but Toyota is now singing its best version of Baby, Please Don't Go. The Japanese automaker may look to extend the battery-pack agreement with California-based Tesla, Automotive News says, citing comments made by Osamu Nagata, who heads Toyota's manufacturing and engineering in North America. Nagata also complimented Tesla for its "clear business strategy." Toyota, which owns 2.5 percent of Tesla, started the RAV4 EV collaboration in 2012, in which Tesla was to make about 2,600 battery packs for the all-electric SUV. That agreement was estimated to be worth about $100 million. "We are also evaluating the RAV4 EV program and will have more to say at a later date" – Toyota "We have a good relationship with Tesla and will evaluate the feasibility of working together on future projects," Toyota said in a statement e-mailed to AutoblogGreen. "We are also evaluating the RAV4 EV program and will have more to say at a later date." And while Toyota hasn't quite met initial sales expectations – it sold about 1,600 of the RAV4 EVs through this spring – the company expects to reach 2,500 by the end of the year. And the partnership did generate about $15 million in revenue for Tesla, according to that company's first-quarter letter to shareholders. That said, Tesla is obviously focusing its battery-making efforts on its own models.

Top Gear drag races the BMW i8 and M4 to decide the future

Thu, Mar 24 2016

The BMW M4 and i8 represent two every different expressions of the performance car. The M4 relies on its turbocharged six-cylinder combustion engine to spin the rear wheels. Conversely, the i8 packs a turbo three-cylinder and electric motors for its cutting-edge all-wheel drive system. Top Gear is the latest publication to put the pair together to find out which ethos is quicker. We saw Germany's Auto Bild hold a similar race last year, and the i8 scored a clear victory there. We don't want to spoil the winner of Top Gear's attempt, but we can tease that this sprint ends in a photo finish. Pick your favorite, and then watch the video to see which performance coupe takes the checkered flag. Related Video:
