FOR SALE - 2008 Toyota Highlander Limited Hybrid. The interior is very nice, but the body has some scratches and dings as well as missing the fog-light on the driver's side. I took the car to Southland Body Shop in Oxford, MS to get an estimate to fix all the exterior dents, dings, scratches, and missing/broken parts. They gave me an estimate of $3,000 worth of repairs to get the exterior nearly perfect. Kelly Blue Book has this car valued at $21,000 in good to very good condition.

Here's a little history of the new cooling system install:
In the spring of 2011, a car backed into the Highlander while it was parked in the driveway. It did some damage to the front grill and headlight and was repaired at Southland Body Shop, Oxford, MS. About a month later we drove the Highlander to Destin, Florida. On the return trip, the car overheated and stalled. It was towed to the Toyota dealership in Jasper, Alabama, On June 4, 2011. The technicians there diagnosed that the previous wreck had caused damage beyond the body, and that this damage had gone undetected. The collision had caused a crack in the Hybrid cooling system. Because the system then overheated on the highway, the whole thing had to be replaced. The Toyota dealership in Jasper replaced the entire Hybrid cooling system, and the cost was about $7,000, paid either by Toyota or the insurance company. I never heard which, but we did not pay for it. It was there for about two weeks for repairs. It has not had a problem with the cooling system since.

It has ~87,500 miles on it and I have the CARFAX.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands

This first-gen Toyota Celica is one mean mother

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

Brian Karasawa's gen-one Toyota Celica is, in a word, badass. As a long-standing fan of the marque, the doting owner has tried to both restore and improve his Celica keeping period-correct modifications in mind. The 20R/22R mashup engine is outputting roughly 185 horsepower and graced with a lot of JDM-specific parts and modifications. Clearly, the exhaust has been upgraded from stock, as clips of the orange Toyota in motion are accompanied by one hell of a nice sound.
Tastes clearly vary, and there's not as much love for the first-wave of Japanese metal as there is for similar era American-iron, but we're pleased to see these cars finally getting more time in the spotlight. Scroll down below to see why we're stoked, and consider cruising your local Craigslist for late 1970s and early 1980s Japanese coolness (before we get there first).

Toyota raises Japanese base wages for first time since 2008

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Toyota is on track for record profits, and in return, its Japanese workers are receiving their first increase in base wages since 2008, plus higher pay based on seniority and a larger bonus for 2014. The Japanese automaker predicts the average laborer will net a 2.9 percent income gain.
The average Toyota employee will earn 2,700 yen ($26.28) more each month, a 0.8 percent increase from last year. Workers will also receive about 7,300 yen ($71.09) more monthly based on seniority and promotions. Finally, the company's union pushed through a median bonus of 2.44 million yen ($23,768) for 2014, the highest in 6 years.
The pay boost comes as Toyota forecasts a record 1.9-trillion yen ($18.5 billion) profit for the fiscal year ending on March 31, according to Bloomberg. It has been helped by the Japanese government's efforts to weaken the yen on international markets and expand inflation. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been asking businesses to increase compensation to end years of deflation and offset upcoming higher sales taxes. Honda and Nissan have also raised their wages there in recent months.
