You are purchasing a RARE 1991 Toyota Corolla DX All-Trac wagon. I would drive this car anywhere without hesitation. Click on the AutoCheck link for full history. I am the 3rd owner in 23 years: NO wrecks, clean title, mileage checks out. I looked for an All-Trac wagon w/auto trans/overdrive (rare) for several years before I found this car from Jay Johnson Toyota, Bristol TN in 2005 with 107,000 miles. It now has 188,996 miles. The majority of the miles I put on the car are highway miles on I-77 and I-40. I am a musician so I bought the car to carry my guitars and amps to gigs, practices, auditions, studio work etc. I live about 1.5 hrs away from most of the places I play so this car has to get me there and home safely. It has never let me down. It is reliable, roomy, runs strong, gets about 30mpg on interstates (cruises at 70-75 mph no problem with power to spare), 25 mpg around town. One reason that this car has been so reliable is all the money I have spent on professional repairs for any problem that occurs asap. In addition to a regular oil change every 3,000 miles and tire balancing/rotation about every 6,000 miles, here is a list of repairs, new parts, work etc. that has been done to the car since I have owned it. I have receipts for most if not all of this work and will be included for new owner. Professional upgrade polyurethane paint job by Maaco in 07, repainted (original Toyota factory paint code 1991) red with some rust repair and pin striping. New gas tank Drivers side mirror replaced Drivers door handle replaced Battery about 3-4 years ago, starts quick, It was checked before winter valve seals replaced about 30K ago head machined about 30K ago New head gasket when head was machined New timing belt about 30k ago Oil Pan Gasket about 20K ago Alignment about 20k Plug Wires about 60k ago New muffler, tailpipe about 50K ago New brakes front and rear about 50k ago New water pump about 40k ago Replaced various hoses when a leak was detected Oil send unit about 20k ago Michelin Wiper Blades 2 years ago Plugs about 10k ago Main belt about 20k ago Cooling System Pressure Flushed about 20K ago Auto Trans Pressure flushed/filter about 10K ago New struts on front shocks on back about 50k ago New Pioneer CD/am/fm radio mp3 player w/ 4 new speakers 2 years old Latest set of tires are good for at least another 15-20K I totaled up the receipts that I could find and got about $5,946.11 which does not include all oil changes and tires over the last 9 years. The receipts all have some form of repair/parts replacement/labor /paint costs etc. for the car. I will include the receipts, window sticker/sales documentation from Jay Johnson Toyota in 2005 with the car along with the original owners manual. I can't find my receipt for the Pioneer CD/AM/FM/mp3 player and 4 speakers but that was close to $300 with installation. The car starts, runs, drives great but some work will be needed in the future for the car to drive it’s best, which is how it has been maintained while I have owned it. The new owner should address or be aware of these items:
This is a good car. I have always maintained it well and it has been garaged since I have owned it. Because the car was garaged I made sure any water/oil/gas leaks were repaired. I do not like to see a leak on my garage floor so the car as of today does not leak fluids. The heater is the best I have ever had in a car. You will stay warm in this car. Tracks well down the road. Excellent power for a 4 cylinder once you get up to speed. The work on the head noticeably increased the power. I have the seats folded down most of the time to haul guitars/amps etc. but there is plenty of room for 4 adults in this car with cargo space behind the hatch. Think a family of four with a load of groceries in the back. This car has saved me several times in bad weather. The Toyota All-Trac all wheel drive will get you home. This winter with 20 inches of heavy, wet snow that my neighbors had difficulty getting out with their SUV’s this Corolla wagon barely slipped, going anywhere I needed to go. In bad rain storms this car holds the pavement very well going up and down hills etc. I already regret selling this wagon but I have a new commuter music vehicle so my loyal friend must find a new home. A bonus for you is a NOS set of factory Toyota Corolla wheel covers from this model. I had just put the present ones on (nothing wrong with them) when I saw these NOS caps on ebay. They were not cheap but I will include the caps with the sale of the car. Clear Title $4999 or best offer. CASH, Certified Bank Check, USPS Money Orders are acceptable forms of payment. My bank requires a minimum of 5 business days for any check to clear before shipping or signing over title. USPS money orders can be cashed at local post office and are quicker. $1000 limit per MO so several would be needed. CASH in person is KING. $500 paypal deposit is due within 48 hours from end of auction. Sold As Is, No warranty, No Returns, All Sales Final. You are welcome to inspect the vehicle in person. If you elect to ship the car within the lower 48 of USA click on the shipping tab (need to be logged in your ebay account) to get quotes for shipping. All matters relating to shipping and paying for shipping this car are the buyers/shipping companies responsibility. I will oversee the loading of the car and process any paperwork at the time of pickup. I assume no liability for the car once the shipping service arrives for the pickup. I am listing this car in all local sources, trade publications, newspaper, CL etc. and getting the word out to my contacts that the car is available. This All-Trac wagon will sell soon so don't snooze on this great car.

Toyota urges owners of old Corolla, Matrix and RAV4 models to park them until airbags are replaced
Mon, Jan 29 2024DETROIT — Toyota and General Motors are telling the owners of about 61,000 older Corolla, RAV4, Matrix/ Pontiac Vibe models to stop driving them because their Takata airbag inflators are at risk of exploding and hurling shrapnel. The urgent warning Monday covers: Certain Corolla compact cars and Matrix hatchbacks from the 2003 and 2004 model years. RAV4 small SUVs from 2004 and 2005. Also covered are about 11,000 Pontiac Vibes from 2003 and 2004, which are essentially the same as the Matrix and were made at the same California factory. Most of the vehicles are in the U.S. “If the airbag deploys, a part inside is more likely to explode and shoot sharp metal fragments, which could cause serious injury or death to the driver or passengers,” Toyota said in a statement. Owners can go to nhtsa.gov/recalls and enter their 17-digit vehicle identification number to see if their cars are affected. If you're not the original owner of the vehicle, the manufacturer's recall letter might not reach you, so be sure to do the VIN check. The recalled RAV4s have Takata driver's airbags while the Corolla and Matrix models have them on the passenger side. The Corolla and Matrix also are under a separate recall because their airbags can be deployed without a crash, the company said. Both companies said owners should contact a local dealer instead of driving the cars in for repairs. Dealers will provide options such as mobile repair, towing the car to a dealer, or vehicle pickup and delivery. Takata used volatile ammonium nitrate to create a small explosion to inflate airbags in a crash. But the chemical propellant can deteriorate over time when exposed to high temperatures and humidity. It can explode with too much force, blowing apart a metal canister and spewing shrapnel. At least 26 people have been killed in the U.S. by Takata inflators since May 2009, and at least 30 have died worldwide including people in Malaysia and Australia. In addition, about 400 people have been injured. The exploding airbags sent Takata of Japan into bankruptcy. The potential for a dangerous malfunction led to the largest series of auto recalls in U.S. history. About 100 million inflators were recalled worldwide. Recalls Pontiac Toyota Takata airbag recall
GM outsold VW globaly in first quarter, Toyota reports numbers next week
Thu, 18 Apr 2013General Motors released its first quarter sales figures this week, reporting that it sold 2.36 million cars and trucks worldwide. That figure represents an increase of 3.6 percent when compared to the same period last year. GM's growth was attributed to many factors, including global Cadillac sales that were up 26 percent and Chevrolet posting a one percent increase over last year (this marked Chevy's tenth straight year of record global sales).
Volkswagen came in just behind GM, as the German automaker reported global sales from January through March at 2.27 million vehicles, an increase of five percent when compared to last year. While that number was strong, VW is cautioning that markets outside China and the US, such as those in Europe, are becoming a challenge as economies falter.
Yet to report sales is Toyota, current holder of the global world sales crown (the Japanese company sold 9.75 million cars last year, against 9.29 million sold by GM and 9.1 million vehicles sold by VW). Even though GM and Toyota both say they don't care who sells the most units, it is unquestionably a strong bragging point and sales equate to revenue. That said, Toyota will report its first quarter numbers next week.
Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV wears silver, Foxconn's $15K EV, solar power at GM
Mon, Jun 30 2014The Toyota FCV made its North American debut at the 2014 Aspen Ideas Festival, and this time it's not sporting its usual blue sheet metal. This silver paint job shows a bit more contrast. Certain features stand out a bit more, especially the black strip that wraps around the grille and down the sides of the hood to the mirrors. This is the production version of the car's exterior, which will go on sale in California next summer. Toyota also had its Driver Awareness Research Vehicle, DARV 1.5, on display in Aspen. DARV 1.5 uses technology to decrease driver distraction and measure driver behavior to provide a safe driving score. See more of both cars in our image gallery. Taiwan's Hon Hai Precision Industry (also know as FoxConn Technology Group) says it is planning to build electric cars that will cost just $15,000, according to The China Post. The world's largest electronics maker, which assembles mobile devices for Apple, promises that the cars will be highly connected. "When integrated with cloud computing, the Internet, smart traffic and smart cities in the future, people will be able to drive more easily and reduce car accidents more efficiently," says Hon Hai chairman Terry Gou. At a shareholder's meeting, Gou didn't comment on production timing or other details about the cars, nor would he answer questions about possible cooperation with Tesla Motors. Hon Hai made headlines in recent years after a series of employee suicides, which led the company to raise worker wages and install anti-suicide netting on its buildings. EV advocates in Illinois took a 500-mile road trip to help temper range anxiety in potential buyers, says the Chicago Tribune. The demonstration, organized by the Illinois Green Economy Network, meant to show people that they can use electric vehicles to drive long distances without getting stranded with a dead battery. The drive began near Carbondale and traveled to 11 different community colleges with charging stations before terminating in Grayslake. Illinois has about 5,000 registered electric vehicles, and 450 public and private charging stations. General Motors is building three acres of new solar arrays to produce an expected 400,000 kilowatt-hours of renewable energy per year. The new arrays at GM's Swartz Creek processing center and Flint engine plant will be completed this fall, contributing to the company's 38 megawatts of solar power from facilities around the world.
