 Auction is for a 1993 Toyota 4Runner V6 4x4 SR5 4-door with a manual 5-speed transmission and 195XXXk miles on the chassis.
See points above for specific features.  Vehicle had all available options in 1993 except an automatic.
Vehicle has spent it's entire life in the dry Mojave and Sonora Deserts and has really minimal rust (just the "patina" type surface rust on the undercarriage).
-Engine was professionally rebuilt by a factory licensed Toyota dealer (Valley Hi Toyota Honda in Victorville, CA) at 155k miles, and so currently has approximately 40k miles on it.  The receipt packet for the work will be provided to the winning bidder.  This rebuild included the updated head gaskets to replace the problematic originals.
-Mechanically the vehicle is in excellent shape and runs/drives great.  A/C blows cold.  Everything works.  Synthetic fluids used throughout drivetrain (except trans which requires special fluid). The interior is also in very good shape as can be seen in the pics.  Note from the pics that the cloth on the driver's seat is starting to tear in the usual spot for older vehicles.  Exterior body is in good shape with very few dents.  Note that the paint is in poor condition.
-Vehicle is almost entirely stock with the exception of the rear springs.  The OEM rear springs sagged over time and I replaced them with aftermarket leveling springs.
-Has 31x10.5x15 tires with lots of tread left as can be seen in the pics.  Has a full size spare which also has good tread. Many steering and suspension components have been replaced recently as well as a rebuilt driveshaft.
-Has a new battery (with warranty) and alternator.
-Vehicle has a salvage title from a 1994 roll-over accident.  The frame was NOT affected and the entire vehicle has provided problem-free service to us since we purchased the repaired vehicle in 1995.
-Truck has been used on poorly maintained dirt roads, but has never been abused off-road.
-Has a carpeted plywood tool storage box in the left rear bed area that I have found handy but may be removed easily if desired.
-Includes a box of extra parts that can be seen in the pics.

This 4Runner has been very reliable for us. We recently made a road trip with a trailer from Phoenix AZ to Wichita KS and back (snowstorm included) and the truck exceeded my expectations, even in the snow and ice with the trailer!
With the rebuilt engine, this truck should provide many more trouble-free miles!
Truck is located in Surprise AZ, a suburb of Phoenix.
Serious potential buyers are welcome to make an appointment to view the vehicle prior to auction close.
Questions are welcome!
Thanks for looking!

2013 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport

Tue, 16 Apr 2013

"Oh yeah, Toyota still makes the Tacoma." Admit it, that's what you just said to yourself. It's a perfectly natural reaction, but the Tacoma has been quietly anchoring its segment for years, outselling every other compact pickup without making too much of a fuss. Toyota hasn't neglected the Tacoma - it was updated in 2012 with a revised nose and interior as the most noteable changes.
In a world awash with high-value fullsize pickups all vying for your attention, the Tacoma still charms more than a few buyers out of their cash. I hooked a Tacoma for a week to see whether it still has enough to recommend it.

Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of

Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.
