 You are bidding on one of the finest, cleanest 1st generation 4runners around. I am the third owner and have had this vehicle for 7 years. It was an Arizona car for the 1st and 2nd owner and now resides in Idaho. It has never seen snow or salt, hence the original paint and body condition. There is NO body rust on this vehicle. The previous owner has installed a 3" Rancho Suspension Lift kit with matching shocks which works well with the 31x10.5BFGoodrich t/a radials. The tires look new. The sound system in the vehicle absolutely rocks! Don't know the exact details. But it has a Alpine head unit CD player with a Pioneer 800 watt amplifier in cargo area and a large JBL three speaker subwoofer in the cargo area. It also has custom door mounted speakers.  It does have an I Pod hook up to the head unit. Head liner is in good shape. Seats are all in good shape with the drivers side showing wear from getting in and out. There are no tears or rips in seats. The door panels have the normal wear on top where your arm rests with window open. There are two small holes in the door release plastic. Dashboard is perfect as well as all instruments and displays. Carpet is Very clean.  The AC does NOT blow cold but I suspect all it needs is to be recharged. We do not need AC here so never bothered to check into it. It did work very well when I bought the car in Phoenix and drove it home 7 years ago. The battery was installed last month. The mileage is original I bought the vehicle with 126k and have only put 8k since.

It is fitted with a receiver hitch with a four way flat plug. I have pulled my 17ft drift boat with out any problem. I have put new Warn manual locking hubs on in the last thousand miles. I have replaced the timing belt, serpentine belt, water pump, and the idler pulley. If there was anything mechanically that needed attention, it was taken care of.

There are round Nerf bar running boards. They do have some road rash and surface rust from the gravel roads around here unfortunately. It also has a tubular grill guard with fog lights that are functional. Every thing on the vehicle works with exception of the AC.

I have tried to show all the imperfections in the pictures. The body is in great shape but does show some wear commensurate of a 25 year old vehicle with original paint.  Starting at the tail gate, there is a quarter sized area that has been touched up with paint that does not match and the tail lite lens is scratched next to the touch up. There is a Rhino coat application to the lip of the tailgate. The clear coat was pealing and I elected to use the Rhino coat instead of repainting the whole tail gate. It looks good with other black trim on the back of the vehicle. The rear window has some wear marks from sliding up and down. The decals down the sides of the truck are faded and almost not visible. there are a couple dings on each side but no major dents.There is a scratch on the rear passenger quarter panel that was touched up with paint that did not match well.  The hood has some road rash on the nose and the decals are also faded to being only slightly visible.  The roof is in good shape but does have three dimples on the radius from the windshield to the roof.  There is a small crease down passenger side of hood, can only see it in right light. Typical of the 4runners of this era the window seals around rear sliders don't stay seated in corner but do not leak. The antenna is power but the mast is damaged and does not go up or down. It gets reception fine so I have never fixed it. The steering wheel is sun faded from the early years in AZ. The rims are Toyota OEM SR5 mags. They do have some discoloration. The muffler does have a whole in it but not worth fixing IMO. I believe that sums up the body. I tried to be as specific as possible.

Reason for selling is I don't drive it much and I hate to see it sitting around and I have too many vehicles.

This would be a great 1st vehicle for a teenager or a great platform to restore to show room new for the avid 4runner guru. Would be a great daily driver also.  I would not hesitate to drive this vehicle anywhere.

I have been watching Ebay for years and not seen many that would compare. I will be happy to answer any questions about the vehicle. It is located in Victor, ID. Buyer is responsible for shipping and or pick up. If you choose to fly in, I would be willing to pick up at Jackson hole airport or Idaho Falls airport. PLEASE  make sure you have funds available before bidding.

Toyota teams with FirstElement Fuel on 19 hydrogen stations in California

Fri, May 2 2014

Cross Toyota with a former General Motors and Hyundai executive and you might just get some real momentum when it comes to hydrogen refueling station deployment. Toyota and FirstElement Fuel Inc., which is headed by ex-GM and Hyundai executive Joel Ewanick, are working together on a project designed to complement California's agreement to spend about $200 million building 100 stations in the state. And while Toyota didn't put out any specific numbers, Automotive News reports that FirstElement received a $27.6 million grant from the California Energy Commission to build 19 stations, which will be sited at existing fueling spots and spaced far enough apart to be reachable by anyone within the state. In all, California has granted $47 million for the deployment of 28 new stations. Additionally, Toyota will get Linde to build a refueling station on a Toyota-owned property in the San Francisco Bay Area's San Ramon, Calif. Toyota, which is targeting a full-tank range of 300 miles and a five-minute refueling time for its fuel-cell sedan, had its fuel-cell prototype make its North American debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January. The company said at the time that 68 stations could serve 10,000 hydrogen vehicles. And while that station number doesn't sound terribly high, consider that there are fewer than 10 hydrogen refueling stations in California now. Check out Toyota's press release below and Autoblog's impressions from a drive of one of Toyota's fuel-cell prototypes late last year here. Toyota Collaborates with FirstElement, Providing Financial Assistance to Facilitate a Hydrogen Refueling Network in Targeted California Locations Toyota also will collaborate with hydrogen provider Linde, which will build a public hydrogen refueling facility at the Toyota San Francisco Regional Office May 01, 2014 TORRANCE, Calif. (May 1, 2014) – "The issue of hydrogen refueling infrastructure is not so much about how many stations; but rather, location, location, location," stated Bob Carter, senior vice president, Automotive Operations, Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. (TMS), just four months ago at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas where he unveiled a hydrogen fuel cell sedan due to launch in 2015. "Solutions are being found through collaboration between government, academia, carmakers and energy providers.

Toyota's 'green bond' an industry first, quickly rises to $1.75 billion

Tue, Mar 25 2014

Toyota is greasing the skids for more green car purchases with the announcement of a $1.75-billion bond designed to finance the purchase of high-efficiency Toyota and Lexus models. The Asset-Backed Green Bond is a first for the automotive industry and is making a lot of money available to buy or lease the following vehicles: any of the four Prius variants, Camry Hybrid, Avalon Hybrid, RAV4 EV, Lexus CT 200h and Lexus ES 300h. Originally, the bond was set at $1.25 billion, but Justin Leach, manager of public relations for Toyota Financial Services (TFS), told AutoblogGreen that demand was high and it was quickly oversubscribed. TFS has been looking at more ways to diversify its portfolio after a Diversity & Inclusion Bond that was announced in early 2013 and, with the new Green Bond, TFS is offering something for the "number of investors out there who are looking for investment opportunities in green." The way the money from the bond is used, basically, is that TFS takes the $1.75 billion and uses it to finance the purchase or lease of the nine vehicles listed above. As of right now, all the eligible vehicles are plug-in or hybrids, but the rules simply say that the cars in the program have to meet certain "powertrain, fuel efficiency and emissions" criteria. That means: Minimum EPA estimated MPG (or MPG equivalent for alternative fuel vehicles) of 35 city / 35 highway California Low-Emission Vehicle II (LEV II) certification of super ultra-low emission vehicles (SULEVs) or higher, which would include partial zero emissions vehicles (PZEVs) and zero emissions vehicles (ZEVs). TFS raises plenty of billions in other ways for the rest of the lineup, and got into asset backed securities in 2010, Leach said. Given the success of this first Green Bond, Leach said he expects TFS to keep this idea in its arsenal. "This one was so well received, I would be surprised if we didn't see it again," he said. "If anyone was going to do it, it should be Toyota, right?" Toyota Financial Services (TFS) Issues Auto Industry's First-Ever Asset-Backed Green Bond Bond Proceeds to Fund Consumer Loans and Leases for Toyota's Leading Portfolio of Green Vehicles TORRANCE, Calif., (March 24, 2014) – Toyota Financial Services (TFS) issued the auto industry's first-ever Asset-Backed Green Bond in the amount of $1.75 billion.

Suzuki will road-test EVs in India, start production with Toyota in 2020

Fri, Sep 7 2018

NEW DELHI — Japan's Suzuki Motor Corp will start testing prototypes of electric vehicles in India by October, its chairman said on Friday. "We will start road-running tests using a fleet of 50 EV prototype vehicles in India from next month in order to develop safe and easy-to-use EVs for Indian customers," Osamu Suzuki said at the Global Mobility Summit at New Delhi. The company would then launch EVs in India around 2020 in cooperation with Toyota, he added. However, Suzuki said that for EVs to become popular in India, there had to be well-developed charging infrastructure. "In this regard, we look forward to proactive leadership from the Indian government," he said. The government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has a plan to electrify all new vehicles by 2030, a target many experts call ambitious. EVs are expensive due to the high cost of batteries which are still not manufactured in India, and carmakers say a lack of charging stations could make the proposition unviable. Suzuki, parent of India's top-selling automaker, Maruti Suzuki, would start production of lithium-ion batteries for automobiles at its plant in western India from 2020, Suzuki said. India is one of the world's fastest-growing car markets, but EV sales are negligible compared with millions of petrol and diesel cars sold every year. Suzuki said to meet India's environmental challenges, the government would have to look at hybrid and CNG (compressed natural gas) vehicles also.Related Video:
