2001 Toyota Tacoma SR5 V6. It had all options when purchased new in 2001 including the sunroof.

 

The truck was completed by Jason at KatKustoms in NewKnoxville Ohio. Additional pictures can be seen at his website www.katkustoms.com. Front & rear 3-link suspension on 16” travel king coilovers for smooth ride. The subframe and links are made of .120 and .250 wall DOM for strength. Front & rear sway bars using DOM and heim joints down to trussed & smoothed D60 axle housings. The axles were custom built units from Custom Differentials that used new 1 ton Ford D60 center housings (front axle uses Chevy outer knuckles) cut down to 65” WMS-WMS with disk brakes with 6 X 6.5 bolt patters. Both axles have lock right lockers and 5.38 gears installed. PSC Hydraulic steering system, including the high flow pump, to steer Mickey Thompson 46x19.5/16.5 tires on 16.5X14 Weld Scorpion wheels. The steering is a Z linked steering system designed by KatKustoms.com and provides no binding or bump steer throughout the full suspension travel. The 4-wheel drive uses Tom Woods driveline shafts mated to Dana 24 divorce mounted transfer case. A custom machined rotor is matted to the rear output of the transfer case and used as the driveline emergency brake. It will hold great at extreme angles. Every suspension part is painted red or chrome plated. The engine is the stock 3.4L V6 with AFE intake, JBA headers, magnaflow high flow converter, Gibson muffler and the entire exhaust is jet hot coated. The frame was smoothed and painted Toyota silver prior to reassembly.

 

Body mods include a custom cowl hood, bushwhacker cutout fender flares, shaved tailgate handle, snugtop carpeted bedcover, custom 26 gallon fuel cell recessed in the bed and AFE bed cover. Both the tailgate and cover are connected to linear actuators and operated with a remote. Front grill and bumper also have been updated to include billet inserts. There are two small dents, one under the door from my knee. This happened before I learned how to get in it. LOL The other is a small crease in the top of the tailgate were I backed into the tool box. 

 

The interior includes miscellaneous billet pieces for the vents, power window switch covers and several other pieces. I have an A pillar gauge pod but have not installed any gauges in it yet. The head unit is a Pioneer unit with a motorized 7” TV. Otherwise the interior is all stock.

 

The truck drives and handles great on the road. It is not a caddy but it is easy to drive once you get used to it. It has won awards in every show entered including best of show, best engineering etc. The truck was also filmed with ESPN 2.  Winning bidder is responsible for arranging delivery or I can possibly deliver for fuel cost.  Very motivated seller!!  Contact me if you have any questions.

Toyota close to licensing deal with BMW for fuel cell technology

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

For over a year now, we've been hearing about a potential partnership between Toyota and BMW on everything from sports cars to lithium-ion batteries, but one of the first cooperative projects between these two automakers could bring Toyota's hydrogen fuel cell technology to a BMW vehicle. Reuters is reporting that an announcement is likely to be made as soon as later this week regarding a BMW fuel cell vehicle that could be in production by 2020 with a prototype running around by 2015.
The last we heard of Toyota's fuel cell technology, it was in the FCV-R Concept that we saw at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show, but there is no word how far along in development this system is. If it does come to fruition, such a vehicle for BMW would build on the automaker's commitment to hydrogen that started with the Hydrogen 7, which unlike a fuel cell vehicle, simply ran on hydrogen fuel rather than converting it to electricity for use in motors. We're definitely interested where this Toyota/BMW tie up could be headed.

Watch Congress sample Toyota's i-Road 3-wheeler concept

Fri, 11 Apr 2014

Toyota brought its new i-Road, a three-wheeled, all-electric low-speed vehicle that debuted in 2013 at the Geneva Motor Show, to the Capitol for some of our elected officials to test out. As easy as it is to forget that politicians are people, too, it was refreshing to see a human side to many of them as they zipped about one of the Capitol's many meeting rooms.
We'd say their reactions were surprisingly positive. Of course, some were just down there because Toyota is a big presence in their respective districts, but the bulk of the senators and representatives seemed like they just wanted to zip about the makeshift indoor course on the leaning trike.
Take a look below at the video from Bloomberg.

2014 Toyota Aygo is so cross with itself

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

It almost made it, but images of the redesigned Toyota Aygo have leaked ahead of its official debut at tomorrow's Geneva Motor Show. The new Aygo sports an aggressive look overall with a, um, mark on its face.
That distinguishing design feature aside, we quite like the angular headlights and muscular overall look of this little city car. The gaping trapezoidal air intake make the Aygo look more substantial, while swollen rear wheel arches hint at something sportier than your standard commuter device.
Sportiness, though, isn't likely to be a big part of the Aygo. As it's built on the same platform as the Citroën C1 and Peugeot 108, we should expect the same pair of gas-powered engines, which means at best, the Toyota will come to market with 82 horsepower under hood.
