 2001 Toyota Tacoma Xtra Cab 4WD 4Cyl  2.7 Engine

(This truck has the noted frame rusted ... (see pics)  )

Its a clean 4WD Truck ...and currently drives...but I hear noises from the rear bed that sound as if its moving around. I'd be afraid to drive it any distances with the frame the way it is. I guess it may go 20 miles...or 2000 miles like that...but I wouldn't recommend it.

Engine is a 4 cylinder 2.7   with No strange sounds nor noises. Sounds just like my wifes 2003 model. (Except the muffler)

It does have a Clear/Clean Title  ...stating only "mileage exempt" ...the guy I bought it from said that goes on vehicles that have over 100,000 miles ... but Ive never heard of it before.

I haven't driven it far since Ive had it. I'd be a bit leary to...But everything seems to work...ie  the A/C, the 4WD, etc.

It sounds a bit loud when you rev the engine...though the muffler has a hole in it


I guess someone with welding experience might be able to reinforce the frame. But, not being from that line of work.. It's just a guess.

I looked and you can still borrow about 8000.00 on this truck

No warranty expressed nor implied.

Or..I guess someone could just use it for parts...but that seems a shame. Because otherwise its a Great looking truck !!


I would also consider upgrading the rims and tires to a full set of mounted and balanced Michelin 265/70/16 with very good tread ..Mounted on a very clean set of MB Razor Rims for an additional 350.00.  See Pics above

Thx for Looking!!

Just listed this locally as well ... So I'll have to Reserve the ability to end auction early if ... someone shows up with the cash

Toyota FV2 Concept is a single-seat mood ring for the road

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Of all the vehicles Toyota brought to the Tokyo Motor Show, the FV2 might be the most creative. The minimalist single-seat concept is a glimpse at Toyota's idea of a "fun to drive" vehicle in the future.
The FV2 is essentially a pod with a diamond-shaped wheel array (what powers said wheels has not been disclosed), and Toyota says that the technology of the vehicle allows it to gauge the driver's mood and suggest possible destinations. The interaction between driver and vehicle is also displayed in an augmented reality screen on the windshield, and the car can also act as a mood ring of sorts with exterior colors and patterns that can change based on the driver's mood. We can just see it now: "Don't mess with Jim today, his car is red."
Scroll down for a brief press release on the FV2.

2014 Toyota Camry to get 'significant' attention?

Sun, 24 Nov 2013

With competition from Ford, Chevrolet, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda and Nissan mounting, Toyota is getting set to unveil a refreshed version of its Camry sedan a mere two years after it was fully redesigned.
According to a report from Bloomberg, Toyota's move to freshen the still young Camry comes as it seeks to retain its US sales crown in the midsize segment. That desperation has lead to increased incentives and fleet sales in a bid to keep its title, all while trying to keep pace with a slew of very competent competitors.
"It's safe to say we'll be doing something with it," Bill Fay, group vice president of the Toyota brand in the US, told Bloomberg during last week's LA Auto Show. "We'll be paying significant attention to Camry next year."

Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell coming to US Northeast in 2016

Sun, 16 Nov 2014

Looks like someone was able to read the future back in July. That's when rumors first circulated that Toyota's upcoming fuel cell vehicle will be called the Mirai. Today, Toyota president Akio Toyoda confirmed the name alongside plans to build out a hydrogen refueling infrastructure in the US Northeast.
In Japanese, mirai (??) means "future," which is a fitting name for a car that Toyota believes represents the direction the auto industry will go in the coming years. In a promotional video announcing the name, Toyoda said, "For [Toyota], this isn't just another car. This is an opportunity - an opportunity to really make a difference. And making a difference is what Toyota is all about."
To help that future come into existence, Toyota CEO Jim Lentz also disclosed the vague outline of a fuel cell infrastructure investment that Toyota and partner Air Liquide will make in a five-state Northeastern corridor that consists of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Rhode Island. The Mirai will be available there in 2015 and Toyota is going to build 12 stations in and around New York and Boston to support the launch. More details will be available later.
