This car has a clean Carfax and I am only the second owner. It was always dealer serviced and never in an accident. There are no rips or tears in the seats, and no stains anywhere, nor any cracks in the dash or door panels. This has also always been a non-smoker’s car. It runs and drives like a three year old car; you can't even tell that it has 255,000+ miles on the chassis. This can partially be attributed to the engine having been replaced 38,000 miles ago with an identical engine that had about 88,000 miles, so this motor only has about 128,000 miles on it now. With the engine the radiator, all the filters, and a water pump were also replaced and a full tune-up was done. About 500 miles ago the front brake rotors and pads were replaced with new drilled and slotted rotors and semi-metallic pads, and a full adjustment was done of all the brakes. The alternator was replaced with a new one a couple years ago when the old one died, and all four tires are basically new, with about 5000 miles on the rear two and 1000 on the front two. Besides that, I added two remotes that control the door locks electrically, and also can remote start the engine. The radio was replaced with a Clarion receiver that has AM/FM, Bluetooth, a single CD slot, plus a remote and removable face-plate, and all four speakers were replaced with new ones. Everything in it works well, and no one would have any problem driving it under any conditions and over any distance. The car will regularly get 34 MPG on the highway, and will cruise at 70 MPH all day. The car is fully serviced, needs nothing, and is ready to go with no extra money having to be spent on anything. Please notice the Autocheck score for cars like this is within the range of 11-31, and this car scores a 40...this should tell you that this is the car to buy!

Is 120 miles just about perfect for EV range?

Tue, Apr 15 2014

When it comes to battery-electric vehicles, our friend Brad Berman over at Plug In Cars says 40 miles makes all the difference in the world. That's the approximate difference in single-charge range between the battery-electric version of the Toyota RAV4 and the Nissan Leaf. It's also the difference between the appearance or disappearance of range anxiety. The 50-percent battery increase has zapped any lingering range anxiety, Berman writes. The RAV4 EV possesses a 40-kilowatt-hour pack, compared to the 24-kWh pack in the Leaf. After factoring in differences in size, weight and other issues, that means the compact SUV gets about 120 miles on a single charge in realistic driving conditions, compared to about 80 miles in the Leaf. "The 50 percent increase in battery size from Leaf to RAV has zapped any lingering range anxiety," Berman writes. His observations further feed the notion that drivers need substantial backup juice in order to feel comfortable driving EVs. Late last year, the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), along with the Consumers Union estimated that about 42 percent of US households could drive plug-in vehicles with "little or no change" in their driving habits, and that almost 70 percent of US commuters drive fewer than 60 miles per weekday. That would imply that a substantial swath of the country should be comfortable using a car like the Leaf as their daily driver - with first-quarter Leaf sales jumping 46 percent from a year before, more Americans certainly are. Still, the implication here is that EV sales will continue to be on the margins until an automaker steps up battery capabilities to 120 or so miles while keeping the price in the $30,000 range. Think that's a reasonable goal to shoot for?

2014 Toyota Corolla coming Thursday, now with LED headlamps

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

Here's what we know about the redesigned 2014 Toyota Corolla: It will have "aggressive new styling" with "available seventeen-inch alloy wheels" an "available touch screen audio" system and "available LED headlights."
We know all of this because Toyota has seen fit to release a small assortment of teaser images of the 2014 Corolla, with those descriptions attached. The latest to hit the web shows LED lighting clusters, which, to Toyota's credit, don't appear to merely mimic designs already seen in the automotive world.
We should point out that the headlights do share a link to the units seen on the Furia Concept that was supposed to foreshadow the next Corolla, though the most interesting bits - namely the honeycomb inner pattern - have been chucked while the somewhat trapezoidal main units remain intact.

Toyota TRD Pro lineup coming next week

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

A mysterious Toyota commercial recently popped up on YouTube teasing a new TRD Pro lineup for the Tundra, Tacoma and 4Runner, and now we're getting our first official word straight from the automaker on the matter. Courtesy of its Facebook page, Toyota is promising that the TRD Pro models will be introduced on February 6th, ready to "conquer the great outdoors."
This date just so happens to mark the first day of the always-truck-friendly Chicago Auto Show, so while Toyota isn't saying as much, we're almost certain the trucks will show up next week in the Windy City. It's not clear what sort of upgrades TRD Pro brings, but it definitely includes black wheels and a tweaked front end featuring a thick, single-bar grille and bold lettering in place of the stylized Toyota logo (shown above on the Tundra).
Scroll down to see the video, and head over to Toyota's Facebook page to see a teaser image of the 4Runner TRD Pro.
