I've had this one for about a year, it's been a great driver. since it's been warm I've been driving it every day again. Located in Salt Lake City, UT
needs: -little bit leaky out of the oil pan, I figure whatever though, it's a MKI that's the only real problem at this point. good stuff: new front outer CV boots when I bought it. new thermostatic fan switch. everything else is fine as far as I can tell. it looks good, it's dirty inside but h4s are cool, I have a front bumper for it, thumbs up all around except that drippy pan listed above. comes with a spiffy front valence, a strut tower support bar (full race truck!!), sits on racelands and drop plates, I think I have another set of drop plates that bring it up a little too. tires are fine. starts every time I try as long as the cold start is pulled and sometimes I have to give it a little throttle on the first start, then it's fine all day. it's been a really handy truck and a great commuter and work truck for fixing up my house. I bought a tacoma though so now I don't need it for anything. no rust on the strut towers at all, only rust is in the bed, with only one small rust hole on the right rear fender. this also comes with an extra engine for it that needs rebuilding but it also comes with a turbo kit with a banged up downpipe and the oil lines all done on it. looks like it'll need a hone, rings, and head work. i was going to drive it while building that engine for it this spring but I'm going back to school and moving out of town in a few months so I need to get rid of my projects. also comes with a vac. pump rebuild kit and a new thermostat, these parts were acting up in the cold of winter when I drove it a couple times, but I switched the vac pump with a good used one, and the thermostat seems to be working fine now. when in doubt, ask before you bid. I did my best to describe the truck here. if you bid, you are committed to buying the truck. i will help load the truck to the best of my abilities but I will not arrange shipping for you. $500 deposit due via paypal within 24 hours of auction close, balance due in cash or bank check only within 7 days, car must be gone within 7 days of auction close. |

Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.
Dodge Demon 170 reveal experience, Supercharging a non-Tesla and the BMW XM | Autoblog Podcast #774
Fri, Mar 31 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. They start off with what it was like to be at the reveal for the 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 out in Las Vegas. From there, they explore news of the 2024 Acura Integra Type S being revealed to have 5 more horsepower than the Civic Type R. And to round out the news section, there's an Explorer EV out, but it's only for Europe. After that, the two discuss the cars they've been driving, including the 2023 BMW XM, VW Jetta Sport with a manual transmission, our long-term Toyota Sienna minivan and what it was like to charge our long-term Kia EV6 on a Tesla Supercharger. Lastly, the pair spend some money to help a listener buy a car for their daughter who is just starting to drive.

The VW diesel scandal is now a Halloween costume
Mon, Oct 5 2015Can't figure out what costume to wear at your upcoming Halloween party? Love cars? Have a bunch of auto enthusiast friends who appreciate a super timely joke? Well, fear not. You're set for this season. HalloweenCostumes.com presents the VW Diesel Scandal costume, complete with toxic gas mask, fuel canister, and a cute little car blowing a plume of smoke. It's a full do-it-yourself job, and the site shows all of the necessary parts you'll need to make your very own scandalous outfit. And no, we aren't sure why the male model isn't wearing a shirt. "I'm a car guy and a Passat driver before it broke down, so I never wanted to make light of the VW scandal. I actually really like the brand," HalloweenCostumes.com's Marlon Heimerl tells Autoblog. "But I'm also an environmentalist and marketing manager for a Halloween company. So fair is fair, just doing our job." "The biggest news stories and scandals in particular always find their way to the top of the list for the topical costumes of the year," HC's vice president of marketing, Troy Eaves, writes to Autoblog. "Sure, car scandals happen all the time, but on a much smaller scale both in terms of the total number of cars effected, and the actual parts in question are usually replaceable through a recall. This one was much larger scale, affected millions of consumers, and the damage can't really be undone. This rings 'big costume' for the Halloween industry." Credit where credit is due, this is pretty funny. Now, bring on the Sexy VW Diesel Scandal treatment.
