2001 Toyota 4runner Sr5 Sport Utility 4-door 3.4l on 2040-cars
Lansing, Michigan, United States
I purchased it almost 1.5 years ago from a Honda dealer in Southgate, MI. It was a one owner, woman owned vehicle. No accidents. It had 104,xxx when I bought it and it now has just over 116,xxx. Everything works, it is mechanically and structurally sound. It does not leak, or burn any fluids. Fly and drive, I am 15 minutes from Lansing Capital Airport. I would rather a local sale as I am more interested in a partial trade for a decent, reliable small car with the difference being made in cash on the buyers end. Some of the pictures were taken prior to the Monstaliner going on. The odometer reading pictured is also incorrect. The 4runner is sitting at 116,760 miles as of 10/25/2013. Here is the run down on the good and bad.... The bad: Rust on the drivers rocker. Some perforation but it is not entirely gone. There is some spatter on the interior door panels from the Monstaliner. Its not bad, but it is there. The fabric on the door panel on the drivers door is pulling away from the plastic. Ive been meaning to glue it back on, just haven't. One of the elements in the rear defroster has lost continuity. But the defroster works otherwise. The Good: Everything works. Power windows, rear window, all transfer case functions, high low range. All buttons, switches work their appropriate accessories and all the accessories work. All fluids other than the brake and power steering fluid have been change and any accompanying filters. Transmission was fully flushed in my driveway. My intention in building this up was first and foremost to make it a safe daily driver. New parts I have added/replaced since I took ownership. - All fluids were changed except the brake and power steering fluid. Synthetics were used were available, which is just about everything. The transmission got a full flush in my driveway, almost 21 quarts. - Yokohama Geolander AT/s tires, LT 256-75-16 have about 10,000 miles on them. Tread can be seen in one of the photos. - OME 881/890 lift from Toytec. OME 90004 springs in the front and Monroe Magnum for an FJ80 in the rear. $700 - Toytec rear upper adjustable control arms to bring the pinion back in alignment. $450 - SPC/Light Racing front upper control arms to bring the caster back after lifting. $400 - Sonoran Steel adjustable panhard bar. $250 - New lower ball joints. 555 brand. $120 - New inner and outer tie rods. 555 brand. $175 - Poly steering rack bushings. From Wheelers Offroad. $20 - New Steering Guide. OE. $60. Installed less than 100 miles ago. - New Denso Radiator $100 - New Aux Tranny cooler. I believe its a 24,000btu unit, but it could be a 19,000. Run in series with the radiator. $60 - New Denso AC compressor, condensor, drier/filter, expansion valve. $550 total in parts. - New rear driveshaft built locally using 1310 series u-joints. I JUST rebuilt it as well. All 3 joints and the centering ball. $485 - Tundra Brake upgrade on the front with the 231 calipers. $330 - New rear brakes, shoes, drums, springs etc. $225 - Kenwood KIV bt-900 stereo and Cobra 18 WX STII in the dash. I custom mount these to fit into the double din opening. Looks OE. - Custom built rear drawer system. - Color matched Monstaliner on the entire body. - Timing belt service done this past summer. I also replaced the fan bracket. Aisin water pump, OE thermostat, Koyo and NSK pulleys and Mitsobushi belt. I also have the 3 Toyota seals but did not use them since nothing was leaking. New Toyota crank bolt as well. $400 The sway bars and skid plates are currently not installed. If you want to reinstall the sway bars, new links and mounts will need to be purchased. I found that with the stiffer OME suspension, the sway bars are not only not necessary, but make the ride very harsh. I also have the OE rear upper control arms that will go with the runner. I have most of the receipts. The ones I am missing are from the orders I placed with Rock Auto for the timing kit, the ball joints and inner/outer tire rods. Im sure Im missing a few others as well. But I take my maintenance serious since I trust this vehicle to haul my wife and kids around. No corner has been cut to insure it is a safe, reliable vehicle. I have been running Pennzoil Platinum in it for the past 10,000 miles as well. PLEASE feel free to ask me any questions or if you want an image of a specific location or part. |

Toyota says you might have the 40-millionth Corolla ever built
Sat, 07 Sep 2013The guy who bought the 50-millionth Toyota in the US got a free Camry and RAV4, but whoever in the world bought the 40-millionth Corolla in August gets a hearty "thank you" from the Japanese automaker. On sale since 1966, the Corolla is the best-selling nameplate in the world by a goodly margin (more than the Volkswagen Beetle and Ford Model T combined). So while you'd think that vehicle number 40 million would be sitting in a museum somewhere, Toyota can't even say in which country this milestone Corolla was sold, let alone to which customer.
One reason that Toyota is unsure where this Corolla was sold is the fact that the Corolla name itself is more than just the compact sedan sold in the US. On our shores alone, sales of the Matrix are lumped in with the Corolla, but around the world, numerous vehicles wear the Corolla name or share its platform. Scroll down for Toyota's press release, and it has also put together a website celebrating 47 years and 40 million sales for the Corolla... and counting.
Performance cars overpower the Detroit Auto Show
Tue, Jan 13 2015At precisely the stroke of noon on Monday, the 2016 Acura NSX rolled on stage at the Detroit Auto Show amid plumes of smoke and dancing lights. The sounds of the powerful engine revving soared to the rafters. It was the second coming of Acura's iconic sports car, and the reveal had all of the expected trappings. Afterwards, champagne corks popped and the bubbly flowed. It was noon in Detroit, but for the green-car movement, it seemed like the clock had struck midnight. That's an exaggeration, but performance was the overwhelming theme of North America's most important show. Ford – which has helped lead the way in smaller displacement engines and early adoption of hybrid powertrains – had more than 1,500 horsepower on stage one point after it revealed the GT concept, the new F-150 Raptor and the Shelby Mustang GT350R. The NSX is technically a hybrid (it has three electric motors), but with 550-plus hp, there's no doubt this Acura was bred on the track. The theme continued throughout the show at nearly every stand. Alfa Romeo showed off the 4C Spider, which is the open-air version of a car that purports to be the spiritual successor of the high-performance 33 Stradale from 1967. On Tuesday, Cadillac is scheduled to reveal the 640-hp CTS-V with the V8 transplanted from the Corvette Z06, and the Lexus was expected to roll out its own V8-powered beast, the 467-hp GS F. For enthusiasts – especially enthusiasts with money – these are halcyon days. But make no mistake, all of this power has a purpose. Ford product chief Raj Nair said the Blue Oval uses high performance cars to develop technologies, like aerodynamics and materials, which are then shared across its lineup. "It's another proof point about how serious we are in developing innovation through performance," he said. Ford, which is rolling out at least 12 performance cars by 2020, said the sporty cars attract younger and more influential buyers to its fold, which can help burnish its image beyond adding sales volume. Toyota is taking a similar approach, senior vice president Bob Carter said, noting the Lexus RC coupe draws people into showrooms and gets them excited about the brand, even if they don't end up buying one. "They provide an aspiration and a halo that provides the attention that gets you noticed in a cluttered market," he said.
2014 Toyota Tundra gets five grades priced from $25,920*
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Toyota has announced pricing details for its refreshed 2014 Tundra, with the fullsize pickup offered in five grades. Naturally, that doesn't include the buyer's choice of three cab styles, the option of two- or four-wheel drive, and a choice of a 4.0-liter V6 base engine or 4.6-liter and 5.7-liter V8s.
The base SR starts at $25,920, while the volume SR5 model starts at $29,465. Toyota notes that all SR5s ordered with the big V8 hold the line on pricing from 2013 while including a further $650 in standard equipment. The first of three high-end trims, Limited, starts at $36,940, while the Platinum and 1794 Edition both start at $44,270, with all prices subject to a $995 destination charge. Also noteworthy on the cost-savings front, Limited CrewMax 4x4 models are priced $2,000 less than their 2013 equivalents, (4x2 buyers save $1,900).
As is typical for a model as as customizable as a pickup, Toyota's pricing structure is far from simple. Adding the 5.7-liter V8 at one trim level can cost several hundred dollars more or less than another trim level - the same goes for adding four-wheel drive. So, rather than break out the Enigma Machine to try and decipher what options cost what on which trim, we've just rolled the whole pricing chart in. Scroll down for a look, including Toyota's full press release, and then check out our recent First Drive feature of the truck.
