Cottonwood, Arizona, United States

2nd owner. Original except for stereo which was excellent when installed 10 years. It has spent it's recent half of it's life in FL (6 months) and AZ (11 years). Previously it was in Boston. This means it is not 100% a rust-free AZ truck, nor a clapped out rust bucket from the east. Nothing important has rust. Running boards, wiper arm, tail latch (pictures included), etc have some rust. I took pictures of the rockers and underneath -- there is no rust in the body, frame, or engine. The paint is very nice except the top has fading, some almost to white. It has a small oil leak that only leaks when driven and requires a quart every 6+ tanks of gas. The interior is as pristine as a 21 year old car is -- no rips in upholstery, cracked dash, 3rd seat rarely used -- the inside looks very good. There is a list of little things that is not exhaustive: Driver's mirror motor broken in mirror, gas tank door wobbly, only opens manually, rear latch missing handle but opens fine with the levers the handle is supposed to attach to, fender flares screwed on when replaced due to damage, small dent front bumper, some small chips in windshield, paint, and especially fender flares, running boards icky (rust, not flat, etc). Over hard bumps dash light can blink. Antennae does not go all the way up. Lost the remote for the key (can easily get a new one from Toyota).
I want to repeat that everything important works properly and safely. The brakes are perfect. The steering is. The transmission works correctly. It runs strong and does not smoke. The tires are good. It has been well kept. In fact -- the very worst thing on the truck is the running boards. This was the car of women and they never used it as a 4x4 -- no off roading, (husband tried it once, never again :-) ) no dents in the bottom, nothing ever filled with mud, well maintained and garaged most of the time (including now). This would be excellent just as-is and has many years left in it with proper maintenance. Or you can take it off road and not worry about trashing an 85k rig (like the new ones). Or you can modify it -- soup the engine with a rebuild. This is no show queen, but it is a very nice 93 Cruiser. Me ... I'd chuck the running boards anyway and lift it and enjoy. I am selling the car for the owner so it can take more time to get answers. Or you can send me a phone number and I'll have her call you. http colon//www dot drivehq dot com/file/df.aspx/publish/vicsmba/restofthem.zipPublish Several people noticed I had no interior pictures -- that is because I hit the maximum of 24 pictures and they did not even give me an error message. The balance of the pictures are at the URL above. Interior, wheels, dash, stereo, door panels and more! Also took some redundancy out when re-listing and now have some interior pictures. Note that what looks like a hole in the carpet under driver is NOT -- it is a hole in a floor mat. The carpets are great and the mats OK except the one. |

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes
Fri, 07 Dec 2012At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
Toyota recalls 4,000 Tacoma pickups over valve springs
Thu, 07 Nov 2013When you build as many cars and trucks as Toyota does, you're bound to run into the occasional recall. In the past month alone, the Japanese auto giant has recalled over 800,000 Camry, Avalon and Venza models over problems with the air-conditioning units, and 10,000 more before that over windshield wiper issues. Now Toyota has issued another recall notice, but this time for far fewer vehicles.
The recall revolves around the engine valve springs in the 2013 and 2014 Tacoma, specifically those fitted with the standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine and not the optional 4.0-liter V6. The issue is that the valve springs are prone to cracking and breaking over time, and results from improper maintenance of the manufacturing equipment used by one of the two suppliers that outfit Toyota with the components in question.
All told, some 4,000 vehicles will be subject to the voluntary recall, the owners of which will receive notice by mail. If you think that could be you and want to get a jump on the problem, you can read the announcement below and call Toyota yourself.
