Here is the most desirable of all the 4Runners; the 1985 with fuel injection and a solid front axle!  Just get on YouTube and search 4runners and see how many with carburetors bog down!  If you are serious about off roading than obviously the solid front axle is the way to go.  


I would love to keep this but I found a replacement for my 92 Accord wagon which gets much better gas mileage.  This is such a great platform for whatever you want to build.  It is rough around the edges as you can see from the pictures, but overall it is in pretty good shape.  You can tell it has been a Colorado vehicle since the rust is minimal.  There is rust around the rear wheel wells, but that is the worst of it.  

It runs a bit rough and I'm not sure why.  When I test drove it it would die when I would slow down to turn a corner.  The guy I bought it from suspects the distributor. He also said that it doesn't do this once it is warmed up.  I haven't confirmed this so bid accordingly.   The check engine light goes on and off intermittently.  It starts right up without any smoke or bad noises.  It stops well and steers well but as you can see from the photos it needs tires.  You were going to replace the tires anyway when you added the lift kit, right?   The rear power window works with both the inside switch as well as the key in the door.  Glass is in pretty good shape although the latch on the sunroof should be replaced.  

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.  PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING OR MAKING AN OFFER!  As you can see in my feedback some jerk left negative feedback when all he had to do was clarify some things with me before he bid.  I will do my best to answer any questions that you have.  This vehicle has a clean Colorado title.  I will be leaving town June 25th - July 7 so plan on arranging shipping prior.  If you need to wait to pick it up or have it delivered we can certainly discuss that as a possibility.  Thanks for looking and enjoy the auction!

Hyundai tops Toyota in annual CarMD Vehicle Health Index

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

CarMD has released its third annual Vehicle Health Index, which for the 2013 tracked the frequency and cost of repairs for "check engine" problems of 119-million vehicles built between the 2003 and 2013 model years. For the first two years of the index, Toyota ranked at the top of the list, but this year's results see Hyundai moved to number one, pushing Toyota down a spot.
The Korean automaker's rise to the top has been "fueled by its low repair frequency," according to CarMD. Toyota is second to Hyundai in lowest repair frequency, but Toyotas also have the highest average cost of repair. (Interestingly, General Motors vehicles have the lowest average.) Both Toyota's and Hyundai's manufacturer "health" ratings suffered this year, but Toyota took a bigger hit, which also is what helped Hyundai achieve the top ranking.
While Hyundai is the top manufacturer in the index, the 2012 Toyota Camry is the top vehicle. The best-ranking Hyundai was the 2010 Elantra (behind three Nissan models and four Toyotas), which took the number eight spot. Hyundai has six other vehicles in the top 100.
