1997 Toyota 4runner Sr5 Sport Utility 4-door 3.4l on 2040-cars

US $2,900.00
Year:1997 Mileage:254870
Location:

Middletown, Ohio, United States

Middletown, Ohio, United States

Up for sale is my 1997 4Runner SR5 with 254,845 mi. It's fully loaded with A/C, all power options (windows, locks, antenna, etc. - ALL functioning properly), moonroof, factory towing package and newer Kenwood CD/MP3/AUX/iPod unit (model KDC-248U). The 4WD system works as it should and has only been used for inclimate weather (e.g. snow). I have never taken it "off-road". 

I have owned the vehicle since 2010 after purchasing from Page Toyota in MI. 

Over the past (4) years, I have replaced the following:
- Transmission
- Radiator
- Alternator
- Timing Belt
- Water Pump
- Valve Cover Gaskets
- Rear Shocks
- Battery
- Front Brakes (calipers, pads & rotors)
- Muffler

It has recently developed a small power steering fluid leak (hose) and will need (at some point) rear brake pads. Also, there is a small exhaust leak. 

Since I've owned it, just about all maintenance has been performed by either Spartan Toyota OR University Foreign Car in MI. I also have all dealer maintenance records for the past 120k (via Toyota Owner's site). The only reason for selling is that I have recently purchased a newer vehicle and as much as I'd like to keep my 4Runner, I don't need (2) vehicles. That being said, It is still driven on a semi-regular basis, so the mileage will vary. 

If you're looking for a dependable, great running, clean and well-maintained 4Runner; this is it!

More photos are available upon request. 

I'm asking 2900.00 (or Best Offer) which is below the Kelly Blue Book value, accounting for the repairs listed/needed. 

Buyer is responsible for ANY/ALL fees, taxes, registration, etc. This is an AS-IS vehicle, there is NO warranty expressed OR implied. Payment is to be made by Cash or Certified Cashier's Check from local bank

Toyota recalling select 2014 Camry and Avalon models

Thu, 06 Nov 2014

Toyota has announced a rather small voluntary recall, affecting 5,650 Avalon and Camry sedans from model year 2014. Both gas and hybrid models are included in the action.
This recall focuses on the left front lower suspension arm, which may have a bad bolt connecting it to the ball joint. If the car hits a big enough pothole - a real concern as we head into winter - or suffers a major impact, the two components could separate, at which point steering control would more or less vanish.
According to Toyota, there have been no crashes, injuries or deaths due to this problem. Toyota is notifying owners, who will need to report to dealers for a free replacement lower suspension arm.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.

Ford predicts it will finish 2013 as top-selling US brand

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Ford is ready to call the ball on its 2013 sales totals, predicting a first-place finish for units sold in the US for a single brand. The company anticipates selling more than 2.4 million vehicles when all vehicle sales over the last 12 months have been tallied, repeating the victory it trumpeted over Toyota last year.
According to Ford's accounting, it sold 329,677 more vehicles than did Toyota in 2012. This year, the Blue Oval expects that margin to grow; through the end of November, Ford says it has outsold Toyota by 396,041 units.
Retail sales of Ford products are projected to exceed 1.7 million units for 2013 (the best retail result in 6 years for the company), with passenger cars accounting for 600k of that total. The redesigned Fusion is expected to crest the 290k mark, and the Fiesta is said to be ready to hit a model-record of 70k-plus. Meanwhile, utility vehicles and trucks are still paying a lot of bills in Dearborn, with the new Escape racking up an expected 300k sales and F-Series trucks chugging along at 688,810 units sold thru November.
