1987 Toyota Hilux Diesel Double Cab on 2040-cars
St. George, Utah, United States
1987 Toyota Hilux Diesel double cab. This truck is one of very few double cab hilux to make it to US soil. I purchased and used this truck while I was living in Central America a few years ago. When I moved back last April I loved it so much that I brought it back with me to the US. This truck came equipped with the sought after solid front axle from the factory, the rare (in the US anyways) 2.4 liter naturally aspirated Toyota 2L diesel engine and the even more desirable double cab. This truck is a head turner, I get so many comments and compliments everywhere I go. I am going to miss this truck, but I am going to be going back to Central America soon and do not want to go through the export and re-importation process after already paying the import and duty fees in the US. This thing has almost brand new tires, and almost brand new full exhaust from the manifold back. This truck is not in perfect condition it is 27 years old. I am not sure what the gearing is but it is geared quite low. On the freeway I usually go about 65 and it sure takes a minute to even get going that fast. It does have a factory limited slip rear diff which makes this thing awesome off road. It is alot more at home off the road than on the road. It is not made to go anywhere fast but it is made to go anywhere. I would be happy to answer any question that you might have. The VIN NUMBER IS: LN650055243. I can be reached at 435-272-7863 or 435-817-0801. Thanks for looking and happy bidding!
UPDATE: I have alot more high resolution photos but ebay only lets me upload 24. Please message me your email address with what pictures you would like and I will forward them on to you. Thanks. |

2014 Toyota 4Runner Limited
Thu, 08 May 2014What would you say if we told you that outside of Jeep and Land Rover, the best brand for those who want to go off road is Toyota? Sounds remarkable, eh? But the truth is, Toyota's history of providing vehicles for the rougher bits of our blue marble dates back to 1950, barely a decade after Willys built the first Jeeps and only a few years after Land Rover made its big debut with the iconic Series I.
In fact, Toyota's start in off-roaders was with a small contract for providing the US Army with vehicles, during the Korean War. From that, the BJ was spawned. This Jeep-like vehicle evolved into the 20 Series and then into the iconic 40 Series Land Cruiser in the 1960s.
So yes, Toyota knows its way around the trails. While the Land Cruiser, deservedly, gets all the attention thanks to its impressive longevity, we're partial to the 4Runner, which is a far more affordable entry that serves as Toyota's challenger to the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Finalists for 2014 Green Car of the Year announced
Thu, 17 Oct 2013The list of finalists for the 2014 Green Car of the Year has been announced, and in a genuinely bizarre twist, there's only one hybrid and no electric vehicles among the five contestants, despite the arrival of cars like the BMW i3 and Tesla Model S. Taking the place of the EVs are a pair of diesels, repping a technology that last won a Green Car of the Year award in 2009, when the Audi A3 TDI took the title. No diesel was in the running for last year's award.
Naturally, both of the diesel finalists are fielded by the Germans - with BMW's 328d and Audi's A6 TDI getting the nod. In the case of the 3 Series, BMW installed a 2.0-liter, turbodiesel, capable of delivering 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, while returning 45 miles per gallon on the highway. Audi and its larger, 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel produce quite a bit more grunt, with 240 hp and 428 lb-ft of grunt, but net a very impressive 38 mpg on the highway in the A6.
Finalists for this year's awards include two diesels, three gas-powered cars and a plug-in hybrid.
Couple survives 50-foot fall from overpass in Toyota
Tue, 11 Feb 2014It doesn't matter the make or model - modern vehicles are technological miracles when it comes to occupant protection. Take this story out of New York City, which involved two people going for a very wild ride in a Toyota Matrix.
Carlos and Raquel Broadbelt were on the Cross Bronx Expressway overpass when they hit a patch of ice while dodging a pothole, sending them hurtling into a guardrail and over the side of the overpass. They fell 50 feet onto the road below. Despite the catastrophic accident - and the mangled Toyota - both driver and passenger walked away. The couple spent a night in the hospital just for observation.
The Broadbelts' miraculous survival has even surprised doctors, who told Dave Carlin from CBS New York they'd never seen an accident like it. Take a look below for the full news report from CBS New York.
