Up for auction today is my 2003 Toyota Sequoia that as you can see has a little front end damage. I have had several Sequoias in the past and bought this one to replace a Chevy Avalanche I had and hated and was going to fix this one up but a few days after buying this I found another Sequoia in the local paper at a distress sale price so this one was put in the garage and has remained there since so it is time to get rid of it. So now I offer it up at no reserve to make piece at home as it takes up a bit too much room. What I can tell you about this one is that it runs and drives fine. there is no frame damage at the hit was high and not very hard. radiator support is a bit bent but probably can be saved. Engine is quiet and sounds beautiful. Needs a new serpentine belt. Radiator and condenser are bent, radiator was pushed into the fan so you will need to replace the radiator as it is a little chewed up but again it was a light hit and these trucks can absorb a lot of impact without getting hurt too bad. Miles are around 159,000 and in Toyota speak that is just barely broken in. One of my Sequoia's had 350K miles and ran like new. Obviously you will need new headlights and hood, airbags were set off so you will need a new set. Windshield is bad. Other than the front impact area the exterior is otherwise very nice (rear hatch is fine, there are some weird shadows in the pictures but I assure you the rear hatch and the rest of the truck is in excellent shape) and with a nice wax this truck will shine like new. Interior is excellent, the seats are in excellent shape and overall the truck inside and out was kept exceptionally well (other than the accident). The dash cluster plexiglass is cracked no doubt from the driver airbag blowing or the driver impacting it. Tires are so-so, you'll probably want to replace them with new ones down the road. Rear hatch handle doesn't work (common to Sequoias), power rear window works fine. All windows work fine. In all this is an easy project that I just don't have the time for. Take a look at the pictures, if there is anything that you want to find out please feel free to ask me and I will be glad to assist. I can assist in shipping and I can deliver this if you live within a reasonable distance for an extra agreed upon fee. Thanks for looking and again please email me any questions.

China sticking to its guns on EVs for the future
Mon, Apr 27 2015Automakers are obviously free to develop whatever next-gen, zero-emissions tech that they want. However, if a company wants to get on the good side of the Chinese government, that strategy better include some plug-in vehicles. The authorities there are lending major support to plug-ins at the moment, and its forcing the auto industry to play along. According to Bloomberg, Toyota, Volkswagen, Hyundai, and BMW are all launching dedicated EV brands with their joint venture partners, and as many as 40 electric models could hit the Chinese market this year alone. However, analysts don't think the vehicles are going to sell well. Instead, the launches are essentially a way for companies to play nice with the government and help get the approval to build factories in the country. Take Toyota as an example. The company is pushing the future of hydrogen hard with promotional films for the Mirai and engineers talking down fast-charging EVs. Still, the Japanese automaker is getting ready to launch two EV brands in China with its joint venture partners, according to Bloomberg. China's push for alternative fuels has been happening for a while, but it really kicked into high gear last year. The government has set a goal to improve fleet-wide economy by 40 percent by the end of the decade in order to spend less importing oil and for the population's health. The plan has shown some success so far with hybrid and EV sales growing early in 2015.

HQ move based on study, not pitch from Gov. Perry, Toyota says
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Toyota's surprising announcement on Monday that it will move its North American headquarters from Torrance, CA location to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX is allegedly not due to any political wrangling from the state's Republican governor, Rick Perry.
Perry (above) has been up front in his aggressive pursuit of businesses and jobs for Texas, traveling to California, Missouri, Illinois and New York to tempt corporations to his state. And it's not just about the promise of much lower taxes, a Perry spokesman reminds Automotive News that the state boasts, "a workforce that is skilled and ready to do any job."
For his part, Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American CEO said Plano was chosen through an internal process, with the location helped by its proximity to the company's massive pickup factory in San Antonio rather than any campaigning from the governor.
Five automakers now being investigated by NHTSA for airbag woes
Thu, 12 Jun 2014It appears that Toyota's renotification to owners of recalled vehicles from last year is just the tip of the iceberg for what could potentially be a much larger industry-wide recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation investigation into roughly 1.1 million vehicles from Chrysler, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Toyota and parts supplier Takata regarding faulty airbag inflators in several models.
NHTSA has received six reports - three directly, two from Takata and one from Toyota - of vehicles with ruptured airbag inflators from 2002-2006, which resulted in three injuries. So far, all six incidents have occurred in high humidity areas like Florida and Puerto Rico. According to Toyota's latest recall announcement, the inflators may have an improper propellant that could cause it to rupture in a crash and the bag to deploy abnormally.
This new investigation follows a previous recall from April 2013 of about 3.4 million vehicles worldwide for the airbag inflators from Takata. As Autoblog reported, Toyota jumpstarted the new situation when it found that the original list of serial numbers for the faulty part was incomplete and discovered more cars in need of replacement. Honda and Nissan told us that they were investigating whether further models would need called in again as well. Mazda told Autoblog: "Regarding the current Takata situation, we're working closely with NHTSA and investigating the situation, but nothing else to report at this time." Chrysler Group responded to us with the statement: "Chrysler Group engineers are conducting the appropriate analysis. The Company will cooperate fully with the National Highway Traffic Administration."
