Rare 1985 Volkswagen Vanagon Diesel W/ Ac, Heat, Cd, Ps, & Extras No Reserve on 2040-cars
Three Rivers, California, United States
1985 Volkswagen Vanagon Hardtop 1.6L NA Diesel w/ AC! Just in time for Christmas! Starting at a "give-away" bidding price! NO RESERVE! You are about to bid on a daily driver Vanagon that I have care for very well. The only reason you're seeing it on eBay is because I just moved to CA and I need a 4WD vehicle. I have spent thousands to make this a dependable, functional, and comfortable camper van. The vehicle has 208,000 miles but converted to a rebuilt diesel engine that only has 78,000 miles (hence the reason for listing at 78k mi). The engine is a rebuilt 1.6 liter naturally aspirated diesel with a manual glow. The engine has seen regular oil changes, new filters, fluid changes, etc per specs. It has a rebuilt injection pump installed 10/2012. This van runs at 25-30 MPG, 65 MPH on the highway with the AC running. The tranny is super solid, never a problem, new fluid 11/2013. This vehicle is mechanically sound with receipts of all work. New tires 05/2012 (see pics of tread). New alternator, new power steering pump, new timing belt, new coolant hoses, new AC hoses, new PS hoses, etc. etc. READY TO DRIVE HOME. Heavy duty custom hitch. All of the interior panels are re-fabricated with noise reducers. Air conditioning blows COLD. It is the original AC system that has been resealed and repainted black. All rubber floors for easier cleaning and custom curtains for camping. This van is sold with yakima bars if you wish to keep them (see photos). It also comes with some extra parts. Also under the fold down seat are the ORIGINAL jack and tools to change the spare tire. This car is absolutely RUST FREE. Lived most its life in AZ. However, as with most Vanagons, there are some imperfections. The paint gloss on the roof is peeling (not the paint, just the gloss) due to sun damage. The front passenger seat has a small rubber cement stain. Also, as seen in the photos, there is a small dent in the rear drivers side corner that can be easily fixed. The RPMs do not read as it requires a special connector on the alternator that I never needed. DO NOT BE SHY, ASK QUESTIONS. Important information: I will be available to show this van in Visalia, CA . If you wish to come see and test drive the van, please contact me to set up a day and time. Conditions of Sale: The highest bidder will pay an initial $500 via paypal within the first 24 hours of winning without exceptions! If the highest bidder does not provide an initial payment within 24 hours the vehicle will be sold to the next highest bidder. After the initial deposit the buyer will pay in full upon pickup. The winner will pick up the vehicle ON or BEFORE 12/08/2013. |

VW using other manufacturing locations as leverage in battle with TN [w/video]
Sat, 26 Apr 2014We've reached a new step in the ongoing drama at Volkswagen's factory in Chattanooga, TN. The United Auto Workers recently dropped its opposition to the union vote and agreed that it wouldn't hold another ballot for at least a year. Now, the new question becomes where VW is going to build its forthcoming midsize SUV.
Earlier, it had been considered all but certain that the SUV, likely a production version of the CrossBlue concept (pictured above), would be built in Tennessee. However, it seems the Chattanooga factory might have competition to produce it. In emails obtained by The Detroit News, VW's lawyer wrote to the Tennessee economic development department in January saying, "While we understand there are some 'non-deal' issues that are causing a delay in the TN solution, VW has been successful in reaching agreement on terms at the alternative locations."
As previously reported, the state of Tennessee allegedly offered VW about $300 million in incentives to build the vehicle there and create an estimated 1,350 jobs, but it later rescinded the deal. Newly leaked documents from NewsChannel 5 (WTVF-TV) in Nashville allegedly show just how close that offer was to being completed. It appears that VW actually sent the government the first draft of a memorandum of understanding agreeing to the incentives, but the state removed the offer in late January.
Editors' Picks May 2021 | BMW M3, Toyota Camry and some hot Golfs
Thu, Jun 3 2021We awarded Editors’ Picks status to a number of performance cars this month, but a couple more regular sedans won out, too. April saw us recognize four models, but that increases to six for May. As the weather warms up here in Michigan, we tend to get into the sports cars that we missed driving all winter, resulting in a sports car-heavy month of testing. That explains why the list this month is so heavy on sports cars and hot hatches. In case you missed our previous couple Editors' Picks posts, hereÂ’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in May that earned the honor of being an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Toyota Camry 2021 Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid View 22 Photos Quick take: The Toyota Camry retains its place as one of the best midsize sedans you can buy. It comes in a variety of trims and powertrains, from the potent TRD model to the fuel-sipping hybrid. It's an attractive, functional and well-rounded car offering value and function. Score: 8.5 What it competes with: Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata, Kia K5, Nissan Altima, Mazda6, Subaru Legacy, VW Passat, Chevy Malibu Pros: Highly versatile, efficient hybrid, fun-to-drive sport models Cons: Average infotainment, polarizing exterior, slow base four-cylinder From the editors: Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore — “The Camry is one of the standard bearers in the midsize segment. With many companies abandoning this area, the ones that remain — like Toyota — do it well. Long a bastion of boring design and sleepy driving dynamics, the Camry is now legitimately attractive and offers a range of powertrains. It's a solid entry and along with the Honda Accord, makes the case for midsize sedans to exist." In-depth analysis: 2021 Toyota Camry Review | What's new, pictures, hybrid and AWD fuel economy  2022 Volkswagen GTI The new Volkswagen Golf GTI View 23 Photos Quick take: With engaging dynamics and distinctive styling, the GTI remains the standard for enthusiast hatches.
Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
