I have owned this vehicle for 12 years (bought in 2001) and it has been a great truck. I was in the military when I bought it and purchased it from the original owner in Cherry Point, NC and it had 100K on it. I would drive it from NC to IL and up until this month would drive it from IL to Baltimore, numerous times. I had to replace the engine at 141K because of a ignorant mistake (ask if need to know more). For the last 6 years I have done all my own major repairs with assistance of my uncle. Last summer I had to replace the head gasket. I also dropped the transmission and replaced the clutch and rear main seal. I replaced the water pump. The major problem with currently is that when I was going to replace the fuel filter my thermostat failed on me as I was driving and because it usually runs hot (up to the top white line) before the thermostat kicks on and the temp drops I didnt think anything of it until it kept rising. I was able to stop and get antifreeze in it before the needle got into the red but I must not have been able to take care of it in time because now I have Antifreeze mixing with my oil. It has set for about a week and it is still getting antifreeze in the oil. If I wasnt in Baltimore and back home when this happened I would fix it and keep driving it because the rest of the truck is completely reliable and I never hesitated to take it out for a 13 hour drive. The 4 wheel drive works great. I replaced the exhaust a few months ago. I have replaced the front brake pads and rotars within a year. I am not really sure what else to give as far as a description goes so if you have any questions please ask.
I am selling it "AS - IS", no returns or warranty.
You will be responsible for coming to pickup the truck. You will need a trailer because even though it will start up and run, there is a problem with the engine and you will not be able to drive it very far.

Toyota FCV Concept comes one step closer to reality
Wed, 20 Nov 2013When Toyota first conceptualized a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle for mainstream Americans to drive, the initial response was pretty skeptical. Still, through relentless engineering and solid product after solid product, Toyota has built the Prius brand into the dominant force in the hybrid car market.
Something like that plan of attack is what the Japanese company is preparing for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as well, and that attack is seeing a critical salvo fired today with the debut of this FCV Concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Though there's nothing substantive to be said about rumors of a 300-mile range or a sticker price around $50,000, the FCV concept does offer a few technical details. The sharp-beaked concept makes use of two high-pressure hydrogen tanks and boasts a power output density of three kilowatts per liter.
Despite slow sales, no new Scion models in near-term pipeline [w/poll]
Mon, 09 Sep 2013According to a top Toyota executive, the Japanese automaker will not be introducing any fresh Scion models in the near future, Reuters reports. As of August, Scion sales for this year were down 1.6 percent from 2012 and accounted for only 0.3 percent of Toyota's overall US sales. And last month, Toyota Motor Sales USA Senior Vice President Bob Carter informed the 1,000 dealers who carry Scion that they can drop the brand without penalty.
However, never fear - Carter has assured that, while nothing new is coming for at least six months, the company is still very committed to the quirky Scion brand. Toyota launched Scion, which targets the youth market, in 2003, and sales peaked in 2006. The brand currently has five models, with the 2013 best-sellers being the FR-S sports coupe followed by the tC sedan and xB hatchback.
What do you think about Toyota's decision to hold off on introducing new or refreshed Scion models? Are they heading in the right direction, or does this spell doom for the funky Gen Y brand?
Toyota recalling 10k vehicles to fix wiper switches
Fri, 11 Oct 2013Toyota has announced a voluntary recall covering approximately 10,000 cars in the United States. Affected models include the 2013-14 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2013-14 Avalon and Avalon Hybrid, and the brand new 2014 Corolla.
The problem, as Toyota explains it, is that, "During manufacture of the wiper switch assembly in the involved vehicles, certain contacts on the switch terminal could have been manufactured incorrectly." This could lead to a short in the circuit when the wiper switch is moved between "off" and "mist," and thus, cause the windshield wipers to stop working. Not good.
Toyota will contact owners via first class mail, and the vehicles can be repaired at dealerships, free of charge. Have a look below for the automaker's official statement.
