Selling my 1997 Toyota Landcruiser: Don't have room to keep this anymore, really have enjoyed driving it (mostly highway mileage for last 25k miles) and a few couple trips to the Texas Gulf Coast:

The Good:

  • Front/Rear Locker - rare option and works great (interior controlled)
  • Rebuilt Head with approx 25k miles since replacement (approx $1100 in parts)
  • New Front/Rear rotors replaced within 15k miles, recently replaced brake pads
  • Engine runs very strong, excellent idle and freeway operation
  • All new EGR components - valve, soleniod (relocated to avoid damage from intake heat), temp sensor, modulator
  • Cruise Control works great
  • Car tracks straight, no drivability issues at freeway speed & below
  • Transmission shifts great, no problems
  • Airconditioning blows cold & heater works great
  • Towing Package - hitch with 5000lb capacity
  • Tires have good amount of tread on all 4 tires, low miles since purchase from Discount Tire (certificates included)

The Bad

  • Has oil leak from valve cover, I purchased complete gasket kit to fix & will include it in auction sale
  • Right rear quarter panel has large dent where a car backed into it
  • Font bumper is dented in after another car backed into it (previously replaced due to light front accident)
  • A/C Clutch making noise, still working but should probably be replaced
  • Two small surface rust spots (under driver side mirror & pasenger side windshield pillar)
  • Interior is decent for its age - but shows signs of the expected wear
  • Rim lip damage on passenger rear rim - full size spare rim could be used to swap out if desired
  • Top coolant return nipple repaired with patch, works fine and no leaks (just disclosing)
  • One cracked sensor housing repaired with patch, works fine (nothing wrong with manifold just plastic cracked)
  • Power seats not moving backward - motors move, looks to be issue with drive gear
  • Rear power locks not working, have to lock manually
  • No working key fobs included, just 2 full sized keys

2014 Toyota Corolla priced from $16,800*

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

We'll be publishing our First Drive of the 2014 Toyota Corolla later today, but right now, we can reveal that the eleventh-generation compact will be priced from $16,800 when it hits dealerships this fall (*not including a $810 destination charge).
Four trim levels will be offered, and that sub-$17,000 price point reflects the base L grade with a six-speed manual transmission. Adding the four-speed automatic (yep) brings that price up to $17,400, which gets you the usual features standard on this class of car, including Bluetooth connectivity, eight airbags and - a first for this price point - LED headlamps.
From there, the LE trim ($18,300) adds a backup camera, cruise control, keyless entry, Entune audio (including a 6.1-inch touchscreen) and a brand-new continuously variable transmission replacing the four-speed auto. There's even an Eco version of the LE trim that uses a different engine tune to provide fuel economy of up to 42 miles per gallon on the highway.

Toyota issues multiple recalls for 6.4 million vehicles worldwide

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

It looks like 2014 may go down as the year of recalls. We were already at a record pace, and now it seems Toyota is recalling 6.39 million vehicles worldwide, including about 30 of its models for a variety of problems. None of the faults have caused any injuries or fatalities, but there have been two reports of fires caused by a defective engine starter motor.
Toyota's numbers show 1.772 million vehicles being recalled in the US, but that includes some overlap because the Yaris is being repaired for multiple faults. According to The Detroit News, there are 2.36 million affected models in all of north North America, 1.09 million in Japan and 810,000 in Europe, plus smaller numbers in other regions.
Among the vehicles recalled in the US are 1.3 million units of the 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris. The problem is that the driver's airbag module is attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on the cable can be damaged when the steering wheel is turned, which deactivates the airbag and causes the airbag warning light to come on. Toyota is replacing the cable with an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin the repair. The company is sending affected owners notifications in the mail. According to The Detroit News, an unspecified number of Pontiac Vibe vehicles are also included in this recall because it shares the part with the Matrix.
