1993 TOYOTA SR5 4X4 PICKUP (pre TACOMA, Ebay does not recognize this)
Very hard to find this vintage in this condition.  One owner, 0 accident, low 142K miles (that's an average of just 7K per year), original paint, unmodified, very straight, very clean.  Pics are not photoshoped other than license plate blur. 
Very well equipped SR5 model has upgraded trim and wheels, power windows, power mirrors, sun roof and such. Truck has been well cared for, and not abused. The perfect interior is all the indication of caring owner.
All, what would be considered normal, repairs for its age have just been done.
   If you know the history of these Toyota trucks then you know the early ones built in Japan are considered to be superior to those built in US or Canada. However they were not free of all problems. Although far less rust issues with body and frame than the others that followed, they are not immune. This is a shining example of a true survivor. The body is rust free. The frame has had surface rust in typical areas and addressed by cleaning, and protecting with POR 15 incapsulating rust proofing throughout.  The lower control arms were showing the worst, so they were replaced along with the uppers with new. Doing so warranted replacing all the ball joints, and bushings, even though they were not showing wear.  I'd say the front end is now rebuilt to new.     
  List of other recent work and new parts making truck ready for another 23 years of service (all work completed in the last two weeks). If it was in question it was simply replaced with NEW!. I don't believe in bandaids to buy time.
*  full tune up (normal stuff -plugs, wires, cap, all filters, all fluids, etc...)
*  valve cover gaskets
*  all brake lines front to back
*  all fuel lines 
*  fuel pump assembly
*  fuel tank
*  front brake calipers, pads and rotors 
*  rear brake drums 
*  all shocks
*  timing belt with water pump 
*  hard trans cooler line set
*  radiator
*  trans filter, fluid and pan gasket
*  front and rear chrome bumpers (originals were rusting but very straight)
*  fog lights
*  front alignment
*  Perrelli all-season tires
*  alloy rims (originals are included in sale with used tires at 30% remaining tread life)
*  master brake cylinder  
*  AC converted to and charged with new type
*  muffler and tailpipe 
*  several other unmentionables
 
As you can see, I've spent a few dollars on this truck.  I avoid adding it all up because it will only make me depressed.  The only number(s) that matter(s) is what its worth $$$ to you! (true of any car for sale) My loss your gain.  My situation and needs for this truck have changed so I'm listing it.  This truck is legit. You will not be disappointed. 
It's still a 23 year old vehicle, so it's NOT PERFECT, There are imperfections, so please be realistic.  But it is GREAT.   PICS SAY IT ALL!

Only because I HAVE TO SAY IT!  Sold As-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. I am not a dealer.  Must be paid in full before taking it anywhere.  Clean title in hand. I will try and answer any questions through Ebay messages in a timely manor.  I will not disclose my reserve. I will gladly deal with serious buyers and consider serious offers. If I feel you are not serious you will be ignored. I reserve the right to end this auction if reserve has not been met at any time. I will not waste your time if you don't waste mine. If your funds are not ready and avail, please don't bid!
All that said. Good luck.

The UK votes for Brexit and it will impact automakers

Fri, Jun 24 2016

It's the first morning after the United Kingdom voted for what's become known as Brexit – that is, to leave the European Union and its tariff-free internal market. Now begins a two-year process in which the UK will have to negotiate with the rest of the EU trading bloc, which is its largest export market, about many things. One of them may be tariffs, and that could severely impact any automaker that builds cars in the UK. This doesn't just mean companies that you think of as British, like Mini and Jaguar. Both of those automakers are owned by foreign companies, incidentally. Mini and Rolls-Royce are owned by BMW, Jaguar and Land Rover by Tata Motors of India, and Bentley by the VW Group. Many other automakers produce cars in the UK for sale within that country and also export to the EU. Tariffs could damage the profits of each of these companies, and perhaps cause them to shift manufacturing out of the UK, significantly damaging the country's resurgent manufacturing industry. Autonews Europe dug up some interesting numbers on that last point. Nissan, the country's second-largest auto producer, builds 475k or so cars in the UK but the vast majority are sent abroad. Toyota built 190k cars last year in Britain, of which 75 percent went to the EU and just 10 percent were sold in the country. Investors are skittish at the news. The value of the pound sterling has plummeted by 8 percent as of this writing, at one point yesterday reaching levels not seen since 1985. Shares at Tata Motors, which counts Jaguar and Land Rover as bright jewels in its portfolio, were off by nearly 12 percent according to Autonews Europe. So what happens next? No one's terribly sure, although the feeling seems to be that the jilted EU will impost tariffs of up to 10 percent on UK exports. It's likely that the UK will reciprocate, and thus it'll be more expensive to buy a European-made car in the UK. Both situations will likely negatively affect the country, as both production of new cars and sales to UK consumers will both fall. Evercore Automotive Research figures the combined damage will be roughly $9b in lost profits to automakers, and an as-of-yet unquantified impact on auto production jobs. Perhaps the EU's leaders in Brussels will be in a better mood in two years, and the process won't devolve into a trade war. In the immediate wake of the Brexit vote, though, the mood is grim, the EU leadership is angry, and investors are spooked.

Toyota drops detail about 414-hp Hybrid-R concept powertrain

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Toyota Yaris Hybrid-R Concept has been teased already, offering up little glimpses and details of the Frankfurt-bound vehicle. And while those few, shadowy shots have been great, we've really wanted to know how this hatchback would deliver its promised 400-plus horsepower. Under hood sits a 1.6-liter, race-derived, direct-injection, turbocharged four-cylinder that powers the front wheels. Sounds peachy, but with 414 horsepower splashed across the page, we're going to need something more than a 1.6-liter, turbo four.
A supercapacitor, developed from the Toyota TS030 Hybrid Le Mans racer sits in place of a hybrid's traditional battery packs. The benefit, according to Toyota, is that power can be more rapidly absorbed and discharged than in a traditional battery system, like nickel metal-hydride.
The gas engine is joined by a trio of 60-horsepower electric motors. Two of the them power the rear wheels, while the third sits between the engine and the six-speed, sequential gearbox. Developing the same amount of power as the rear-axle motors, this centrally located motor channels power to the race-derived supercapacitor during braking, and ships extra grunt to the rear wheels under acceleration when the front wheels start to lose grip. Besides the distributive power of the central motor, the rear electric motors can adjust the amount of torque flowing to each wheel, much like a differential.

Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013

Sun, 15 Sep 2013

When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.
