2004 Toyota Tacoma Extra-cab Trd, Lifted, Winch, Bumpers on 2040-cars
Woodstock, Vermont, United States
This is a perfect entry level overlanding vehicle. It has everything you need and nothing you don't. Incredibly well-maintained by Performance Unlimited in Woodstock. All service up to date including the dreaded timing belt, new radiator, front CVs and rear e-locker mechanism. New Tom Wood rear draft as well. Radio does not work (antenna's missing), but cassette and CD players do and speakers work great.
Modifications: Trail Gear winch bumper, rear bumper, nerfed rock sliders 8000 lb T-max winch with synthetic line Full underbody skid-plating including Skid Row steering and radiator plate Custom Performance Unlimited gas tank skid plate Radio Shack CB radio with 4' whip antenna tuned perfectly Five 15" aluminum wheels with five 33x10.5x15 BFG KM2s with 70--80% life left Tacomas make for great daily driver wheeling rigs. We drove this truck to the San Juans in Colorado and back last year at 75 mph and wheeled every trail while we were there. The setup on this particular truck makes it possible to wheel very difficult trails without sacrificing on-road performance. Plus, all of the drivetrain components are stock so the truck is very inexpensive to maintain. Again, a great entry-level, one-stop-shopping overlanding/wheeling/daily driver vehicle. Shipping is at buyer's expense, but I'm glad to help arrange it. $500 deposit upon conclusion of the auction. Truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. |

Suzuki will road-test EVs in India, start production with Toyota in 2020
Fri, Sep 7 2018NEW DELHI — Japan's Suzuki Motor Corp will start testing prototypes of electric vehicles in India by October, its chairman said on Friday. "We will start road-running tests using a fleet of 50 EV prototype vehicles in India from next month in order to develop safe and easy-to-use EVs for Indian customers," Osamu Suzuki said at the Global Mobility Summit at New Delhi. The company would then launch EVs in India around 2020 in cooperation with Toyota, he added. However, Suzuki said that for EVs to become popular in India, there had to be well-developed charging infrastructure. "In this regard, we look forward to proactive leadership from the Indian government," he said. The government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has a plan to electrify all new vehicles by 2030, a target many experts call ambitious. EVs are expensive due to the high cost of batteries which are still not manufactured in India, and carmakers say a lack of charging stations could make the proposition unviable. Suzuki, parent of India's top-selling automaker, Maruti Suzuki, would start production of lithium-ion batteries for automobiles at its plant in western India from 2020, Suzuki said. India is one of the world's fastest-growing car markets, but EV sales are negligible compared with millions of petrol and diesel cars sold every year. Suzuki said to meet India's environmental challenges, the government would have to look at hybrid and CNG (compressed natural gas) vehicles also.Related Video:
Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
Toyota Aygo stars in 'invisible driver' prank
Sat, 14 Jun 2014We love a good automotive-themed prank. Rémi Gaillard remains a favorite, although maybe we should take a closer look at MagicOfRahat, another online prankster. Rahat, who has developed a bit of a reputation for blending in with car seats, giving the impression that there's no one behind the wheel, has taken his talents to Europe, in a new video for Toyota.
Dressed to look like the seat of the new Toyota Aygo, Rahat goes about town freaking out tollbooth operators, valets, fast food servers and even receiving a bit of unwanted attention from the police. The result is, as is usually the case with this prank, pretty darn amusing. We were kind of hoping he'd pop up and give his victims a fright, as he did in his Halloween video, but alas, that wasn't to be.
Take a look below for the full video.
