1983 Toyota SR5 4X4 long bed truck, 5 speed manual transmission, <112K miles, single owner, 22R inline 4 cylinder engine, solid front axle, basically original (still have stock radio), garaged, bed never used and protected, and bucket seats covered since new. Oil changed every 3K miles using genuine Toyota filter (back flow preventer) and Castrol GTX, meticulously maintained inside and out, never in an accident or fender bender, custom hitch, alloy wheels in back and steel rims in front, good rubber all over (including spare). Everything is solid and working as designed.

The cigarette ashtray has been replaced with an insert and digital clock (btw, nonsmoker). OEM ashtray included. Dash has been covered and no dash cracks. Comes with a custom dash matt. Headliner and sun visors are in great shape.

Body is very clean and solid. The new owner will receive some extra parts for general preventative maintenance, like two new Fram air filters, two new headlamps, fuel filter, two thermostats.

It comes with a nice Brahma shell, painted to the same color. The back cab window opens and has a pass through boot to keep the elements out. It has a bed protector.

Some cosmetic items: the blue decals are peeling up around the edges. Additionally, there are several areas in the cab in which the blue plastic trim has cracked. Much of the driver seat belt retractor housing has broken away. The gaskets around the running lights have some cracks from age. The cracks have been filled with caulking to minimize any water penetration.

No Air Conditioning; originally purchased in CO (high altitude compensator) so no CA emissions. More than 9/10 of its life has been in CA.

Thanks for looking.

Toyota's Texas move could boost state's economy by $7.2B in 10 years

Thu, 15 May 2014

They say everything is bigger in Texas, and apparently that includes the Toyota's effect on the economy. The giant Japanese automaker's new headquarters in Plano, TX, will add an estimated $7.2 billion to the state over the next 10 years, according to a new study commissioned by the city and cited by Bloomberg.
The benefits appear to be an absolute steal compared to the direct incentives that Plano and the state are giving Toyota. The report finds that by the time the automaker's campus is complete in 2018, it could have 3,650 full-time workers there at an average salary of $104,000. The city has prepared $6.75 million in grants, plus property tax discounts, according to Bloomberg. In addition to that, the state is offering the business $40 million in incentives from its Texas Enterprise Fund. This is still a fraction of what Toyota is estimated to bring in.
Toyota announced in April that it would move its US operations to Plano after being headquartered in California since 1957. The move affects thousands of employees from the sales and engineering divisions. The first workers will arrive there this fall, but Toyota will eventually have a whole campus in Plano by late 2017. The move is expected to save it huge amounts in taxation and offer employees a lower cost of living. Toyota North America CEO Jim Lentz also says that the Texas location puts the headquarters closer to more of the business' factories in the south. Texas certainly appears to be showing it some southern hospitality.

Watch a Camry driver in full road rage

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

There are vehicles that, fair or not, will forever be associated with jerky drivers. But as this very recent footage from an in-car camera shows, even the most mundane of sedans can be piloted by an ass.
In this video, the driver of one very beige Toyota Camry is driving like a person choked with rage. Though we don't see which (if any) actions by our camera car might have lead up to the tirade, we do see the Camry driver swerving from lane to lane, in multiple attempts to get in front of and brake check the couple in the recording.
According to the text associated with the YouTube video, the offending incident took place last week, on a section of I-880 near Fremont, CA. The uploader has gone so far as to include the date, time and license plate number of the Camry driver, in hopes, we guess, that some kind of legal action can be taken against him. Take a closer look for yourself in the video below.
