2nd owner.  Original except for stereo which was excellent when installed 10 years.  It has spent it's recent half of it's life in FL (6 months) and AZ (11 years).  Previously it was in Boston.  This means it is not 100% a rust-free AZ truck, nor a clapped out rust bucket from the east.  Nothing important has rust.  Running boards, wiper arm, tail latch (pictures included), etc have some rust.  I took pictures of the rockers and underneath -- there is no rust in the body, frame, or engine.  The paint is very nice except the top has fading, some almost to white.  It has a small oil leak that only leaks when driven and requires a quart every 6+ tanks of gas. The interior is as pristine as a 21 year old car is -- no rips in upholstery, cracked dash, 3rd seat rarely used -- the inside looks very good.  There is a list of little things that is not exhaustive:  Driver's mirror motor broken in mirror, gas tank door wobbly, only opens manually, rear latch missing handle but opens fine with the levers the handle is supposed to attach to, fender flares screwed on when replaced due to damage, small dent front bumper, some small chips in windshield, paint, and especially fender flares, running boards icky (rust, not flat, etc). Over hard bumps dash light can blink.  Antennae does not go all the way up.  Lost the remote for the key (can easily get a new one from Toyota).

I want to repeat that everything important works properly and safely.  The brakes are perfect.  The steering is.  The transmission works correctly.  It runs strong and does not smoke.  The tires are good.  It has been well kept.

In fact -- the very worst thing on the truck is the running boards.

This was the car of women and they never used it as a 4x4 -- no off roading, (husband tried it once, never again :-) ) no dents in the bottom, nothing ever filled with mud, well maintained and garaged most of the time (including now).  

This would be excellent just as-is and has many years left in it with proper maintenance.  Or you can take it off road and not worry about trashing an 85k rig (like the new ones).  Or you can modify it --  soup the engine with a rebuild.  This is no show queen, but it is a very nice 93 Cruiser.  Me ... I'd chuck the running boards anyway and lift it and enjoy.

I am selling the car for the owner so it can take more time to get answers.  Or you can send me a phone number and I'll have her call you.

Several people noticed I had no interior pictures -- that is because I hit the maximum of 24 pictures and they did not even give me an error message.  The balance of the pictures are at the URL above.  Interior, wheels, dash, stereo, door panels and more!  Also took some redundancy out when re-listing and now have some interior pictures.  Note that what looks like a hole in the carpet under driver is NOT -- it is a hole in a floor mat.  The carpets are great and the mats OK except the one.

2015 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro priced from $41,285*

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Just a few weeks after announcing pricing for the first two members of its TRD Pro Series, Toyota has finally dropped the final pricing details on its new Tundra TRD Pro. Like the Tacoma TRD Pro, the Tundra will be available in two different body styles, with a more affordable Double Cab and a roomier Crew Cab.
Prices start at $41,285 for the former and $43,900 for the latter - not counting a hefty $1,100 destination charge - effectively slotting Toyota's off-road-ready model between the $41,730, Double Cab Limited and $46,465, Crew Cab-only 1794 Edition trucks.
As we've covered previously, the TRD Pro models come with a raft of off-road gear that should help combat just about any terrain a driver may stumble across. TRD-tuned Bilstein shocks and TRD-tuned front springs add two inches to the big truck's ride height while the black, 18-inch TRD wheels and available Inferno Orange paint add a bit of visual sass. A new TRD dual exhaust system is also standard, which can confirm sounds great (review coming soon!).

Cosworth teases upgrades for Subaru BRZ

Mon, 19 May 2014

Subaru may or may not produce an STI version of the BRZ. Things seem to go back and forth on the subject. But Subaru Tecnica International isn't the only company with a history of tuning Subies. So does Cosworth, and now the British racing firm appears to be turning its attention to the BRZ and its Toyota- and Scion-badged siblings.
For those unacquainted, Cosworth is more than your average tuning company. It's a racing firm first and foremost, having made F1 engines under its own name as well as Ford's (chief among them the all-conquering DFV 3.0-liter V8 of 1960s and 70s fame), not to mention engines for Indy, rally and even high-performance, road-going versions of the Ford Sierra, Chevy Vega and Mercedes 190E. The list goes on and on, but you get the point.
Now withdrawing from Formula One, Cosworth is focusing its attention on tuning road cars again with the launch of the Cosworth Power Package line, the first of which will focus on the Toyota GT86 (aka Scion FR-S) and Subaru BRZ. We don't know just yet what will be included in the packaged dubbed FA-20, but from the video teaser below, it seems there'll be upgrades to the exhaust, suspension, aero and - if we're lucky - maybe a super- or turbocharger for the 2.0-liter flat-four engine. We'll have to wait and see, but we get the feeling that with Cosworth on the job, it'll be worth the wait. Check out the minute-long video below in the meantime.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
