1985 Toyota 4runner Sr5 on 2040-cars
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1985 Toyota 4Runner SR5. This is the last year in US market the solid front axle was available, and the first year that fuel injection was available. This has both!
I bought this in November of 2011 after many years of looking for the one I wanted. I am getting married next month, so I need to move on to something that sleeps two comfortably. The previous owner was also a Toyota enthusiast and had flown to Florida to buy it in 2010. He didn't want any surprises on his 1483 mile drive back to Wisconsin so he change all of the fluids (brake, trans, transfer, differential, and engine oil), and replaced the entire cooling system (radiator, hoses, water pump, Toyota 2 stage thermostat, and belts). U-joints were greased regularly, as well as all grease-able steering components. This truck was originally white, but is now red. The paint job looks good for a seven year old paint job, and still shines. The body has over 220,000 miles and the previous owner told me the engine was rebuilt about 40k miles ago. The legendary 22re is durable, and has plenty of power. I am getting 23mpg on the highway, and 18 in the city. It always starts, runs, and brakes as it should. Cool options on this truck are the power steering, power antenna, power windows, and factory cruise control...They all work! The rear window works with the key in the tailgate AND the switch on the console. The factory (non-leaking) sunroof is there, with the factory removable sun shade. Altimeter and inclinometer on the dash all still work. There are two things missing: the key pad (outer) part of the passenger door window switch, and the shifter boots. (I wanted to source original factory parts, but haven't made time or need for those two things. I do have the passenger window switch, and the master on the driver door controls the passenger window anyway.) The rear window defroster does not work because the wires in the glass are worn. I haven't cared to source new glass, because this doesn't get driven in the winter. The complete air conditioning system is there, but doesn't work. I'd guess it needs to be charged, but again, you don't need A/C when you can roll your back window down, so I haven't cared about it. The heat works great and the optional REAR heat blows hot too! This beauty is 27 years old, so you're not getting a perfect truck. There are a few little dings but no major dents or damage. Rust is starting over the rear wheel arches, but no holes. The paint shines nicely as the two previous owners took good care of the exterior and interior. (The previous owner's wife had a newer Jeep Cherokee...he made her park that outside, so that his Toyotas could stay in the garage! I take this out on weekends mostly, and it stays in a barn when not in use.) The frame is not rusty at all! It has the factory W56 5-speed manual transmission that shifts nice and smooth with a firm clutch pedal. It also has newer Monroe sense-trac shocks and rides pretty nice for a solid axle truck. It has the removable factory top with factory roll bar. I have never taken the top off. The rear bumper is custom made by the previous owner, and if you look you will notice that it is awesome. It is currently rolling on matching Michelin LTX all season tires that are in good shape. There is a spare that I keep in the rear. I reserve the right to end the auction early as this is also for sale locally. If you have a 4x4 Tacoma that is not red or rusty, but IS an xtra cab or crew cab, I will consider trades (plus cash on my end if your truck is worth it). You don't see many of these, and certainly not in this condition. Here is your opportunity to own a classic 4x4! *EDIT: the Autocheck is showing a 2005 accident. I cannot tell looking at it or underneath it. It drives straight, and I haven't had any problems. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford Fusion and Toyota Highlander named Best Hybrids for Families; Funky Prius motorhome
Fri, Mar 13 2015Tesla Model S customers in China will receive a "Universal Mobile Charger" with their vehicle. The charger will allow drivers to charge their Tesla anywhere, without having to search out a Supercharger when out in the wild. It allows Model S drivers a bit more freedom and helps alleviate worries about traveling too far from home. It could also help sway potential customers who suffer from range anxiety. The charger will be free to new and existing customers when it becomes available this summer. Read more at Car News China. US News & World Reports' list of Best Cars for Families includes two hybrids. The 2015 Ford Fusion Hybrid was chosen as the Best Hybrid Car for Families, while the 2015 Toyota Highlander Hybrid was picked as the Best Hybrid SUV for Families. The Fusion hybrid was chosen for its roomy, comfortable cabin, as well as the MyKey system's features for new drivers. The Highlander Hybrid offers eight seats - good for carpooling - as well as good mileage and a quality infotainment system. Read more at US News & World Reports or at Hybrid Cars. Audi plans to give its electric vehicles looks that differentiate them from the rest of the lineup. "In early 2018, we will launch a battery-powered sports activity vehicle in the large premium segment with a range of more than 500 kilometers," says Audi's head of development, Ulrich Hackenberg. "It will have a new, very attractive design, which we are developing especially for the E-Tron range and for battery-electric vehicles." According to analysts, part of the reason the Toyota Prius was so successful was because it was easy to distinguish from other Toyota models with conventional powertrains. Read more at Automotive News Europe. An Australian man turned his Toyota Prius into a miniature motorhome. James Lawler used mostly scraps to build the tiny house – complete with tin roof, chimney, and stained glass window – for just $150 Australian. It took him about a week to finish. Lawler made use of his creation at the Meredith Music Festival so he didn't have to sleep in a tent. He was, however, fined by police for driving the makeshift motorhome.

Editors' Picks November 2023: Toyota Grand Highlander, Buick Envista and some lovely luxury vehicles
Fri, Dec 1 2023It's been a month since we served you with the full lot of Autoblog Editors' Picks, and that master list is going to continue to grow as more new cars enter the market. For November 2023, we have a trio of SUVs coming in at various sizes and price points including the Buick Envista, Toyota Grand Highlander and Mercedes-Benz GLS. And if you're looking for a convertible sports car, the BMW Z4 is one that should make your shortlist, as it finds its way into this month's of Editors' Picks, as well. In case you missed previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get an EditorsÂ’ Pick designation. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in November that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Limited Hybrid Max View 25 Photos Quick take: The Hybrid Max is the one to get, but the Grand Highlander comes highly recommended for its added space, nicer interior and fuel efficient powertrains. Score: 7 What it competes with: Kia Telluride, Jeep Grand Cherokee L, Chevy Traverse, Honda Pilot, Subaru Ascent, Ford Explorer, Toyota Highlander, Mazda CX-9, Kia Sorento, Buick Enclave, Nissan Pathfinder, VW Atlas, Mazda CX-90 Pros: Two hybrid powertrain options; exceptional cargo space; usable third row; refined and quiet ride. Cons: Expensive for the segment; the lesser hybrid powertrain is noisy and slow. From the editors: Senior Editor, Electric, John Beltz Snyder — "The Grand Highlander is a nice alternative to the standard Highlander for the Toyota faithful for its usable third row. The choice of powertrains is a huge boon, too, whether you want a fuel-sipping hybrid, or solid gas engine or a more robust hybrid with extra performance. YouÂ’re just going to have to pay a little more for it all." In-depth analysis: 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Review: A strong, new three-row contender  2024 Buick Envista 2024 Buick Envista Sport Touring front three quarter View 19 Photos Quick take: The Envista is one of our top subcompact SUV picks. It packs tremendous value into a compelling design that looks far more expensive than it is. A homerun for Buick.
Scion's would-be savior C-HR spied before its Toyota rebadging
Wed, Feb 3 2016Scion is dead, but one of its future products, the C-HR concept, is still in development for launch as a Toyota. Toyota does a thorough job of hiding the C-HR's rakish shape on these test cars, but we can spot the concept's design cues. For example, the pointed nose and narrow headlights are present, and the giant box on the roof can't hide the downward arch for the coupe-like rear. The back doors on these examples look larger than before, which suggests a switch to a traditional five-door body rather than the hidden rear openings on the concept. The change would offer easier access to the backseat and make the C-HR a better competitor in the segment against vehicles like the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, and Jeep Renegade. The C-HR debuted as a boldly styled three-door crossover at the 2014 Paris Motor Show. Toyota later restyled the CUV with a more angular shape and extra doors. We most recently saw the compact crossover with Scion branding at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show. Rumors suggest the production model's debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and it could arrive at dealers in the latter half of 2016. The powertrain lineup likely consists of a four-cylinder engine with a CVT and possibly a hybrid version, too. You'll also get to see the C-HR on the track because Toyota will race the crossover in the 2016 Nurburgring 24 Hours. Related Video:
