It is a rugged Toyota SUV, with body on frame. While it has a selectable transfercase with 2Hi, 4Hi, and 4Lo settings, 2Hi and 4Hi operate 95% of all normal driving. The 4x4 has been used in mud and sand and snow, but has not been used to do anything extreme like crashing over rocks or against trees. There is no evidence that has done anything other than drive city streets or secondary roads that may have had mud, sand, or snow (or ALL). I am the second owner. The first owner keep good records of maint and general usage. When you look down the line of any side of vehicle, it is obviously very smooth and straight.
It has a receiver hitch and wiring plug for hooking up a trailer
The body glass is perfect, almost no pits (very small) and no cracks.The axles do not leak fluids, and the boots over the front CV shafts are without tears or splits. The tailpipe does not release oil smoke or radiator fluids. It starts easy and has gauges that indicate the antifreeze, oil pressure, voltage are all in desirable ranges. It can get 20-22 mpg on the highway in 2Hi. I had all fluids checked recently and the technition expressed how clean everything is.
We lived at the end of a winding gravel road in all kinds of weather and was never stranded.
It has a factory alarm system. The factory sound system has AM/FM/cassette/CD, all work very well.
It is over 18 years old, with no trouble of head gasket blowing out. It did have a connecting rod bearing go bad that needed replacement. I went to professional contacts and farmed out some machining. The block was mic'd and all bearing points, cylinders, were still inside of factory specs. Rather than have an odd size rod bearing, I ordered all-new, pistons, rings, connecting rods, seals, gaskets, crankshaft, bearings, oil pump, cam belt, and one camshaft that was out of spec. It now has all new injectors, seals and filters. Due to my goof up, I had to buy a new radiator (wasn't watching close enough to prevent a loose fan blade from tearing out fins in the old radiator (to this day kick myself for not doing a nut/bolt count that afternoon). It is a safe SUV that can haul 6 people (if adults be VERY good friends. Kids will do fine)
Inside the car you will note that there are no waterstains from roof or door seals. The doors close solidly without rattles.
.No one has ever smoked in this vehicle.

Toyota releases teaser for Kaley Cuoco Super Bowl ad
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Toyota has released a 35-second teaser video for its upcoming Super Bowl spot staring Kaley Cuoco, the actress best known for her role as object-of-nerd-affection Penny on The Big Bang Theory. The real star of the ad, however, is its soundtrack, the 1995 hit "I Wish" by rapper Skee-Lo that will have your mind cashing nostalgia checks the moment it hits your ears.
We still don't know much about the content, plot or story of this Super Bowl commercial, though we can say that its object of promotion is likely the new RAV4 we see Ms. Cuoco driving in this teaser. The rest of the time she's walking the street in a purple getup granting wishes like Robin Williams on a Disney sound stage. And then the Easter Bunny and a chihuahua enter the picture and we get lost. Clint Eastwood under a bridge this is not.
But hey, Super Bowl ads cost millions and millions of dollars to produce and air, so we trust that Toyota spent its money wisely and will have us ROFLing on game day. Until then, scroll down and witness for yourself the debut of Kaley Cuoco as a Toyota spokeswoman.
2014 Toyota 4Runner
Fri, 02 Aug 2013I recently took the redesigned 2014 Toyota 4Runner for a muddy romp in Pennsylvania. While the mechanical bits and pieces beneath the body-on-frame SUV trudge forward into the new model year with very few tweaks, the truck "receives a rugged new exterior design and interior refinements that add comfort and convenience without sacrificing its hallmark performance capability and excellent value," says the automaker.
A quick visual scan of the 4Runner reveals a new front end with a more "aggressive" and "muscular" appearance (yes, I'm quoting Toyota) that includes new headlights, grille and hood scoop. A roof rack is now standard across all trims, too. While SR5 and Trail grades have a bland color-keyed grille insert that gives the face a monochromatic appearance, the range-topping Limited (shown above and in our gallery) snarls with a silver-plated chin that gives it a bit more character.
New soft-touch surfaces within the cabin provide a more upscale environment and a bright new Optitron instrument panel improves readability and functionality. As before, the SR5 and Trail models arrive with fabric upholstery or optional Softex seats (synthetic leather). Genuine hides are reserved for the Limited trim, which is also fitted with Toyota's unique X-REAS (X-Relative Absorber System) automatic suspension system as standard equipment.
Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"
Mon, 03 Dec 2012The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
