Up for sale is an Exclusive offer; A 1998 Custom Toyota Tacoma SR5 EXT Cab

-This truck has essentially been completely restored. With the intention of keeping it till death do us part I refinished her inside & out. Stripped the whole truck Interior & Exterior less than a year ago. The interior is completed with the original appeal but looks & feels Brand new. I refinished the Exterior with a superior, professionally done custom Flat (Mat) Black paint Job; that truly sets her apart from all else on the road. Underneath the hood is an Automatic 4WD 4 cylinder 2.7L Engine that has only 156K on it. Living up to its reputation this engine is built to endure. The 2.7Liter is the larger of the two 4 cylinders offered which makes her powerful enough to climb any hill while yet still being fuel efficient &friendly in todays unfriendly fuel cost world. I bought this truck when it had 115,000 miles on it 6 years ago. It's been the best vehicle I've ever owned & I've had just about everything. Tacoma' reputations are Mighty & Just for a reason & this truck is no exception. I hate to have to sell her when she's just beginning to see her prime but I see light in the joy she'll bring her next owner. 
Extra Spec's: 
She's rolling with over sized BF Goodrich 32x11 .50R15 All Terrain T/A K/O tires with Silver 16in Street Lock wheels. She has Black Tint on the door Windows and Limo Tint on the Side & Back windows. She has a 3in Body Lift. Sounds smooth with Flow masters Super 40 Exhaust system with a Chrome Tip (not crazy loud). Brand New HiBeam Black trim Head Lights w/ Brand New Blacked out Taillights. Replaced all four audio speakers & it has a Blue Lit Sony CD Player that has an Auxiliary cord connect. Just recently performed the 150,000 Maintenance on the engine. Replacing all plugs, Wires, Sensors &Filters. 
-The exterior paint is the highest quality PPG product available. It's comprised of Jet Black base-coat with the Best Clear-coat available. It was then converted to Flat Black by use of PPG Matting agent. The achieved finish has a Clean Unique Tough look that truly suits the truck. (Toyota  is missing the boat with this look). 

-The buyer will be responsible for the post purchase pick-up or all transportation cost associated.

US-built Corollas will soon be exported to Latin America, Caribbean

Sun, 29 Sep 2013

Toyota has announced plans to export the American-made Corolla south, to 18 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean by 2014. The move follows statements made to The Wall Street Journal by Toyota's South American leader, Steve St. Angelo, that spoke to Toyota's resolve in emerging American markets.
Toyota is expected to begin export production in April, with initial production of 7,500 Corollas in the first year, courtesy of its Tupelo, Mississippi assembly plant. Years of unpredictable swings in the value of the Japanese yen has seen Toyota push its manufacturing operations in other countries, particularly the US, where its builds ten different models.

The next steps automakers could take after sales drop again in April

Tue, May 2 2017

DETROIT (Reuters) - Major automakers on Tuesday posted declines in U.S. new vehicle sales for April in a sign the long boom cycle that lifted the American auto industry to record sales last year is losing steam, sending carmaker stocks down. The drop in sales versus April 2016 came on the heels of a disappointing March, which automakers had shrugged off as just a bad month. But two straight weak months has heightened Wall Street worries the cyclical industry is on a downward swing after a nearly uninterrupted boom since the Great Recession's end in 2010. Auto sales were a drag on U.S. first-quarter gross domestic product, with the economy growing at an annual rate of just 0.7 percent according to an advance estimate published by the Commerce Department last Friday. Excluding the auto sector the GDP growth rate would have been 1.2 percent. Industry consultant Autodata put the industry's seasonally adjusted annualized rate of sales at 16.88 million units for April, below the average of 17.2 million units predicted by analysts polled by Reuters. General Motors Co shares fell 2.9 percent while Ford Motor Co slid 4.3 percent and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV's U.S.-traded shares tumbled 4.2 percent. The U.S. auto industry faces multiple challenges. Sales are slipping and vehicle inventory levels have risen even as carmakers have hiked discounts to lure customers. A flood of used vehicles from the boom cycle are increasingly competing with new cars. The question for automakers: How much and for how long to curtail production this summer, which will result in worker layoffs? To bring down stocks of unsold vehicles, the Detroit automakers need to cut production, and offer more discounts without creating "an incentives war," said Mark Wakefield, head of the North American automotive practice for AlixPartners in Southfield, Michigan. "We see multiple weeks (of production) being taken out on the car side," he said, "and some softness on the truck side." Rival automakers will be watching each other to see if one is cutting prices to gain market share from another, he said, instead of just clearing inventory. INVESTORS DIGEST BAD NEWS Just last week GM reported a record first-quarter profit, but that had almost zero impact on the automaker's stock. The iconic carmaker, whose own interest was once conflated with that of America's, has slipped behind luxury carmaker Tesla Inc in terms of valuation.

Toyota to end Australian production by 2017

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

There is more bad news for the Australian auto industry today, as Toyota has just announced that it will follow General Motors and Ford in shuttering its manufacturing operations on the continent. Production and assembly will cease by the end of 2017, but Toyota will remain in Australia as a sales and distribution company.
"We did everything that we could to transform our business, but the reality is that there are too many factors beyond our control that make it unviable to build cars in Australia," said Toyota Australia President and CEO Max Yasuda.
In an official statement, Yasuda said that the closure would directly affect 2,500 manufacturing employees and an unknown number of corporate workers. However, a report in the Australian newspaper The Age suggests that the jobs of 24,000 workers at Australian auto suppliers could also be in jeopardy. Toyota currently builds its Camry, Camry Hybrid, Aurion sedans in Australia, along with four-cylinder engines, and it plans to begin importing the Camry and Aurion after production stops.
