You are looking at a 1987 Toyota pickup, 4wd short bed, and probably the most original, low mileage truck left out there. Sorry, couldn't find a listing for these trucks, so I had to list it as a Tacoma. Below is a brief description.

Exterior: This truck mainly appears to be all original, right down to the paint. I can't see anywhere that it has had paint work or any kind of accident, shine is just gone on the top surfaces. Even has the original stripes on the sides. Front bumper is some kind of aftermarket with a Ramsey winch, has a matching camper top, and aluminum wheels, that's all I can see that is not factory. Have no idea if winch works, but it's all there. She has the typical rust in the driver's bedside where the lower panels meet up, and a small spot on the passenger's. Front fenders have holes above tires, I can buy these for $80 a piece c.a.p.a certified aftermarket if the new owner wants them and I also can get the lower side pieces even cheaper. Frame is solid in all the places they rot. Doors, rockers, cab corners, floors, pretty much everything else on the truck seems to be very dry, rust free, and not beat up or abused. Inside of the bed has a liner, pulling it up, seems like it's been in there since new. Floor is nice, just scratched from liner. Tailgate is in amazing shape, rear chrome bumper looks nice as well.

Interior: The gray insides are original also, and in super condition to be almost 30 years old. Headliner is not sagging and is clean. Seat is cloth and not worn or ripped at all. Door panels are not peeling up or trashed and still look new. Dash has some sun cracks, other than that,  it's good to go. Carpet needs a good cleaning. Very nice in my opinion.

Drivetrain: Everyone knows how popular these 4wd trucks have always been, especially with the 2200r engine and a 5 speed tranny. This one runs exactly like it should with only 87,000 original miles. When I got it, it had been sitting for years. I had it looked over by my local mechanic,  made sure all the 4wd stuff worked as it should, so all it needed that he could see was to be tuned up, put a brand new clutch in it, as well as a radiator. There is no drips or spots on my driveway from leaks, engine looks good and dry. Almost new Goodyear Wrangler 235/75/15 tires on aluminum wheels. Sorry guys, no a/c, but the heat is toasty. 

In closing, you will be hard pressed to find one of these trucks with this kind of mileage, for this reserve price, and in this condition. Attention: I HAVE NOT CLEANED A THING ON THIS TRUCK. I want the new owner to see it in it's original condition the way I recieved it. This way nothing is hidden or doctored up in an attempt to deceive bidders. Please check my feedback before bidding, I pride myself on describing my vehicles accurately and everyone always seems to be happy. With that said, don't assume anything, ask me any questions you may have about it and you'll get a truthful answer. I just, this week, paid the mechanic over $800 for all the work done to ensure no problems to the new owner. Also be advised, almost all my auctions end early with a serious offer, so don't wait until the end if you really want one of my vehicles. If you have a feedback score of 10 or less, or a negative score, please contact me before bidding or it will be canceled. These ads are expensive and I have had problems lately with non payers and slow payers. Thanks for your understanding and for taking a look at my auctions, don't hesitate to contact me with any concerns. Take care and good luck.

Toyota reports huge quarterly profit increase, raises forecast for the year

Sun, 04 Aug 2013

Toyota isn't just the world's largest automaker - so far its the biggest winner for quarterly profits. With an enormous $5.5 billion take during Q2, Toyota took advantage of the weak Japanese yen and strong US demand to record a 94-percent improvement in profit over the same period from last year. So far, Toyota brought in larger profits than Ford and General Motors combined.
Toyota is showing no signs of slowing down either, as it has bumped up its forecast for full-year global production, going from 9.94 million to 10.12 million vehicles, on the back of a 13-percent drop in the buying power of the Japanese yen versus the US dollar. That strong exchange rate is largely responsible for Toyota's big jump in profits, although it also managed to shift 1.3 million vehicles in the US market this year. Strong Camry sales have also helped. But while Toyota is raking in the cash, it actually saw a small drop in market share, down 0.1 percent to 14.3 percent of the US market.
As is the case with most automakers, Toyota seems flummoxed by Europe, where it recorded less than one percent of its revenue. Still, as Automotive News points out, Toyota only maintains a 4.5-percent market share in Europe and is far less dependent on the continent than other manufacturers. Toyota also struggled at home, much like Honda. With 525,777 units sold, JDM sales were down almost 51,000 units, although Toyota still saw its operating profit jump from $3.5 billion to $4.6 billion.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Toyota RAV4 "Adventure" brings the butch

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

Just last week, your humble author had a 2013 Toyota RAV4 in his garage, and he couldn't help noting that even in mid-level XLE trim, its aesthetics lacked oomph, due in large part to its cheap-looking black bumpers and airy-looking wheel wells. Judging by the RAV4 "Adventure" on display at the Geneva Motor Show, someone at Toyota must've been thinking the same thing.
With Japan's biggest automaker understandably focused on bigger reveals, information on this butched-up softroader has proven to be hard to come by, with no press materials whatsoever. We don't even know if this is a pure concept or if it's actually being considered for production. Either way, we approve. The 20-inch dark-finish alloys probably don't do much for ride quality, but they certainly look nicely aggressive, as does the new lower fascia with its prominent lower lip. Other changes include beefier wheel arches, side rails, headlamps with integrated LEDs, twin-element fog lamps and mesh grille inserts. All of the changes are quite well integrated - enough so that the Adventure largely avoids looking like a SEMA refugee in person.
