1990 Toyota 4runner Sr5 Sport Utility 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
San Francisco, California, United States
I purchased this truck in October 2013, and used it while I was living in Tahoe. The 4WD performs great in the snow, allowing for on-the-fly
shifting when road conditions change. Selling because I moved back to the city. Previous owner had it for less than a year as well, but he bought it from his friend who took great care of it for 11 years. Before that, there was only one other owner. The service records are appropriate for the age of the vehicle, and lots of major work has been done in the past 5 years..clutch, radiator, timing belt, valve work, etc. Brake pads on the front are brand new. Registration paid through January 2015 Pros: -Very reliable...starts every time -Bluetooth/CD stereo wired to mic on driver's visor and iPhone/USB plugs -A/C and heat are both good, with rear heat control in the back seat -Looks great Cons: -Burns approx. 1/3 qt. oil per tank of gas -Failed smog test, turns out it's a gross polluter, or more than 2x acceptable HC limit...plus over CO limit as well. (This makes it eligible for a $1000-1500 California buy-back program...keep this in mind when submitting best offers.) I talked to the smog tech about the test history, and he said it failed first in 2009, 2010, then passed in 2010 and 2011, then again in September 2013 right before I bought it. He theorized that the repairs done in 2010 were not sufficient, and mentioned that a vacuum leak or faulty catalytic converter as possible issues. -CV joint makes noise on hard turns or Uturns, but is fully functional -Speedometer makes whirring noise when driven in cold weather without warm-up, but is fully functional It's a shame to retire this truck...seems a great candidate for rebuild, or for someone who wants to drive her a state with no emissions test. If not, I'll enter the California repair assistance program, so that I can diagnose the problem. Available for test drives in San Francisco, CA. Free delivery may be possible to some parts of Bay Area, please contact me to confirm. If purchase price is above $2500, I'll include Infinity subwoofer (see picture) and amp already wired in the back..if it's below $2500 and you still want it, I'll sell them for $150 on top of purchase price. A deposit (10% of Buy It Now price) must be paid through Paypal no later than 24 hours after purchase. The balance must be paid in cash within 3 days of purchase. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks for reading, and don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. |

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.
Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?
Wed, 13 Mar 2013According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of
2015 Toyota Yaris to start at $14,845* and look like this
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Toyota released a new Yaris in Europe and its Vitz clone in Japan a few months ago, so we knew it would only be a matter of time before it would launch the new hatchback here in North America. And that time has come.
The new, more distinctive 2015 Yaris features far more aggressive exterior styling, a look set apart by that large lower air dam and X-motif front end. It rides on a retuned suspension hooked up to an altogether more rigid chassis, and Toyota promises it will ride more quietly and comfortably than the model it replaces. Inside the new model has additional soft-touch materials in a more comfortable cabin equipped with everything from a 6.1-inch touchscreen display to nine airbags.
The 2015 Yaris comes in both three- and five-door bodystyles, and three trim levels that seek to eliminate the need for options packages. In fact the only option to speak of is a dealer-installed nav system. Power comes from a modest 1.5-liter four with variable valve timing, dual overhead cams and sixteen valves, sending 106 horsepower and 103 pound-feet of torque through either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic.
