Wichita, Kansas, United States
|
280000 miles ...Just broke in...Good for 500000 plus. 267000 replaced timing belt and all other belts for the 4th time. Told every 90000 good but avg time between
replacement 70000. Replaced the water pump/radiator at this time. Changed spark pugs three times and coils once. Last time on the spark pugs was 257000 when replacing the valve cover gaskets. 270000 miles replace all U-joints on drive train. Transfer case U-joints were ok and greased. Replaced U-joints had Grease Points and were grease often. The new ones do not. A three day old jeep was pushed into the front by a in a hurry mustang while sitting at a stop sign. Would have drove away but a small pin hole in the radiator prevented it. Hood and grill lights have been replaced and custom bumper is ready for a winch and fog lights. Truck probably has 70000 more miles than average. Had 200 mile Sunday paper route. Average MPG 17 stop and go...20.5 Highway. Nearly new rubber and the front struts and rear shocks were replaced 250000 miles. Rides good on the highway/ hold steady on country road and pasture. Front calipers and disc replace, rears brakes and ABS brake actuator replaced between 180000 and 200000. Transmission was recently flushed with new fluid for the third time. Have been using good synthetic for the last 80000 plus . Rear bumper is good but tail gate has a very shallow push in dead center of the tag. Don't know where that came from. Had this truck since 2001. It had 56,000 miles on it. Serviced it regularly and replaced what ever broke. It is good truck now and can be a good truck for the right person. Retirement and one too many trucks causes me to sell it. I will need to see reference and an intention list from any new owner.(Just Kidding) It is for sale at a reasonable price. Tried to price it a fair range to Kelly Blue Book, $5500. Put a Craigs List topper on in..Wash it and a good detail it will look like an $8000 dollar vehicle. I will accept a fair OBO. |

Toyota, Mercedes, BMW top automakers included in List of Best Global Brands
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Interbrand, a consultancy firm, has published its 13th annual list of the best global brands. Besides seeing some shakeups at the top - Apple and Google unseated Coca-Cola (a company that has dominated the survey since its birth), the 100-item list features 14 automakers, most of which enjoyed double-digit gains in brand value.
Toyota managed to retain its spot as the study's top automaker. It finished the survey in 10th position overall (the same as last year), despite a 17-percent improvement in its brand value, from $29.33 billion to $35.34 billion. Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Honda all made the top 20, at 11th, 12th and 20th place, respectively. Hopping a ways down the list, we come across Volkswagen in 34th place, up from 39th in last year's study, with a brand value of $11.12 billion, a 20-percent improvement over 2012. Ford and Hyundai round out the automakers in the top 50, at 42 and 43.
Porsche made the largest year-over-year gain of any automaker, with its brand value increasing 26 percent to $6.47 billion. Chevrolet meanwhile, cracks the list for the very first time at 89th place. As Interbrand notes, Chevy's inclusion is notable because of the sheer number of vehicles it moves for General Motors and its recent push in developing markets. The final interesting note on this survey is the position of an automaker that takes its name and logo more seriously than perhaps any other - Ferrari. The Italian exotic manufacturer finished 98th out of 100, with just $4.01 billion in brand value, a six-percent improvement over 2012.
Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead
Mon, 16 Jun 2014It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.
2015 Toyota Tundra Bass Pro Shops Off-Road Edition a Gulf-State exclusive
Sat, 27 Sep 2014Americans certainly have a fondness for pickup trucks with the Ford F-150 and Chevy Silverado frequently being among the top sellers each month, and that attachment is famously strong in the Lone Star State. We already saw Chevrolet unveil its Colorado Sport concept at the State Fair of Texas. Not to be outdone, Toyota debuted its new the 2015 Tundra Bass Pro Shops Off-Road Edition there, as well.
All of the Tundras use a 4x4 CrewMax SR5 configuration with the Tow Package, and they all come with Toyota's 5.7-liter V8 with 381 horsepower and a six-speed automatic gearbox. What actually sets these vehicles off as the Bass Pro Shops special edition is the 20-inch matte black wheels, tubular side steps, a spray-on bedliner, stainless steel exhaust tips and fender flares. To promote the connection with the store, there are Bass Pro Shops-branded floor mats and company decals on the bed. Of course, pickups are meant to get used, and to make sure of that, buyers also receive a package containing fishing, hunting, camping or marine gear worth about $1,000.
The special edition trucks will only be available in the Gulf States of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Texas beginning this October, and they'll carry a price of $43,975.
