Tacoma, Crew Cab, 4x4, Good Condition on 2040-cars
|
You are looking at one of the best trucks I have ever owned. The over all condition is very good for a 12 years old. The exterior is very clean with a couple of door dings and a small dent in the tailgate. The red paint shines up very nicely. The tires have around 50% tread left but the wheels need to be refurbished to look top notch. If you do any off road driving the brush guard will come in handy, also good for deer. There is a spray-in bed liner and a hard tonneau cover. The interior is gray cloth in very good condition with no rips or tears. The power windows are tinted for privacy and operate smoothly as do the door locks. Has keyless entry also. Has a nice cd stereo with great sound. The cruise control works as it should as does the tilt steering. Comes with floor mats. Air Conditioning blows cold. The engine is a 3400 Four Cam 24 Valve V6 that runs smooth and quiet with a lot of power when needed. Averages 20mpg. The service engine light is on, and has been for the last two years. The first time it came on I took it to a Toyota service center and found that it was the oxygen sensor in the exhaust pipe. $180. dollars later the light was out and I was off. Six months later the light came back on. Again I made a visit to my service center and my mechanic said it was the same sensor gone out again. He informed me that it wouldn't hurt the truck if it wasn't replaced. The light is on and the truck keeps running great. Kbb shows the private party value is $11,200. You can own this excellent 4X4 for less. |

New Toyota semiconductors could increase hybrid fuel efficiency by 10%
Wed, 21 May 2014Toyota may have an ace up its sleeve in the fuel economy wars, as it's developed a new type of semiconductor that will allegedly help the company's hybrids net a ten-percent improvement in fuel economy.
The tech is still in development, although Toyota is already reporting five-percent gains during testing, six years before it plans to implement the new semiconductor in production vehicles, meaning the ten-percent improvement doesn't seem like an untenable goal. That is, until you hear from Kimimori Hamada, the project general manager of Toyota's electronics division.
"We are aiming for great improvement in fuel economy and miniaturization," Hamada told Automotive News. "This is a very challenging target."
Toyota struggling in Latin American market, attempting recovery
Fri, 30 Aug 2013With uncertainty in the US and Chinese markets, automakers are scrambling to rev up their efforts in what were traditionally secondary markets. Take Toyota's efforts in Latin America. A recent story from The Wall Street Journal highlights the Japanese brand's push in the southern hemisphere, particularly in Brazil, where it has expanded its operations and installed new executives with a greater range of powers, all in a bid to grab a bigger slice of the ever-growing South American pie.
South America is dominated by General Motors, Fiat and Volkswagen, which maintain a combined 60 percent of the market share - Toyota holds a mere 4.5 percent. The WSJ spoke with Steve St. Angelo, Toyota's boss in Latin America, who said, "We are playing catch up, but we're catching up fast. We now have the resources to give the region the attention it really needs and deserves."
That attention includes an all-new, locally produced small car called the Etios. As bewildering as it seems, Toyota wasn't competing in the low-cost economy car market in South America. With the Etios, which arrived in September of 2012, its sales in the first seven months of 2013 are up 75 percent.
New drifting world record set in Toyota GT86
Wed, 30 Jul 2014We have entered a drifting arms race. Last year, BMW smashed the Guinness World Record for the longest drift by hanging the tail out for 51.3 miles around a wet skid pad in an M5 at the BMW Performance Driving School in South Carolina. That beat the previous milestone of nearly seven miles. Now, Bimmer's record is up in smoke as well and is in the possession of a Toyota.
German driver Harald Müller pummeled the old record to drift for 89.55 miles around a 0.15-mile (235.5-meter) course in Samsun, Turkey, in a Toyota GT86 (or Scion FR-S as it's known in the US). According to the Guinness World Records website, it took him 612 laps and 2 hours, 25 minutes and 18 seconds to manage the achievement. Sit back to watch a few minutes of the German's two and a half hours behind the wheel with the tail out.
