First time listing a vehicle on Ebay so I want to get it right.  I have a first generation Toyota 4 Runner for sale.  This is a California truck, has only been in Virginia since February of 2012.  Major renovation work completed prior to my purchasing.  New paint job using original color in the last 2 years.  There are some dings and scratches, I will post pictures.  The only rust I can find is some minor surface rust from the scratches.  All new upholstery including the seats and door panels.  The chasis has roughly 301,000 miles on it but the motor has had extensive work done.  In the last couple of months I had the top end professionally rebuilt including new camshaft and rollers.  The shop advised that everything looked great, the timing chain and all the pulleys had already been replaced and in good condition.  The truck burns no oil, no smoke with startup, runs great.  Automatic transmission works fine.  Note, the truck is 4wd but someone at some point removed the front drive shaft.  Since we have never had it off road we didn't even realize it, runs fine without it.  Our shop would charge $250 ($150 part, $100 labor) to put one back on but I recommend checking with your mechanic.  There is an aftermarket stereo in the truck that works great but it appears only the front speakers work.  There are some accessory cables/jacks for extra components.  AC blows cold, heat works fine. I just put new tires on it ($700). In the back the cover for the rear window wiper motor is missing but the wiper works fine as well as the rear window.  The only other thing that I am aware of that does not work is the backlight for the heat and air switch doesn't work, at night you can't see those switches.   Truck currently has Ranchero adjustable shocks and rides like a light weight truck.  I bought this for my wife to use to commute to work and she doesn't like it, so it is time to sell.  I do have it advertised locally so I reserve the right to end early.  Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  Your are welcome to have it checked out (at your cost), I can provide the name of a couple local shops including the one who has done all of the work. Realize I am not a mechanic and I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability, and keep in mind it is a SUV that is over 20 year sold.  No warranties expressed or implied.   Thanks for looking!!!

Tesla pulling plug on Toyota RAV4 EV battery deal

Mon, 12 May 2014

The future of the Toyota RAV4 EV appears to be in doubt. Tesla supplies the EVs battery packs, and it says that production ends later this year.
"Toyota is expected to end the current RAV4 EV model this year," Tesla said in its quarterly financial filing obtained by Bloomberg. "Our production activities under this program are expected to end in 2014," the company said.
This timeline fits closely with the original production plans for the RAV4 EV. When the $100-million project was first announced, Tesla said that it expected to supply battery packs for the vehicle from 2012 to 2014. Building components for the Japanese automaker continues to bring in money, though. In the company's Q1 2014 letter to shareholders, it said: "Automotive revenue included $15 million of Toyota powertrain sales." According to Bloomberg, Toyota has sold just 1,594 RAV4 EV models from 2012 through April 2014. Initially, the business had estimated that it would sell 2,600 units of the electrified crossover.

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US.
