The time has come to let go of my reliable buddy. My good friend. My truck. It has served me very well and taken me to many interesting places over the 150,000 miles we spent together. Instead of telling you everything that's great about this truck (Google can tell you that), I will let you in on all that is wrong with it perhaps with a short narrative. The truck has several dings and dents (All of which are pictured) either caused mysteriously or by one of 3 minor accidents. The front bumper was hit by one of the many fools on the road. As I waited at a stop sign, the woman in front of me decided she was too far into the intersection and popped her boat of a car in reverse without ever looking behind her...and banged into me. She hopped out of her boat and began apologizing profusely with her blonde hair and Russian accent. Since the damage was cosmetic, I let it go. The next accident happened one winter morning on my way to work. I pulled out onto the road and as I put her into 4th I realized I was no longer gripping the pavement, but was sliding freely into oncoming traffic, spinning slowly. I finally came to a stop in the opposite lane after spinning roughly 200 degrees. Lucky for me, it was so early that there was no traffic in the opposite lane. All was well...so I thought. Unfortunately the car behind me hit the same ice patch and also began sliding freely until she came to a stop by knocking into my front driver side headlight. It didn't stop there. Many more cars kept piling on. Ironically, I was the only driver not at fault. Although there is a police record of this, I left my insurance company out of it. The headlight was replaced but because of the dent below the lamp, it does not fit as snugly as it once did. The final accident was all me. I backed into a street sign while leaving a parking spot. This left a nice semi-circle dent on the back passenger side corner of the truck. There are other minor dings and dents but luckily for you, I have no explanation for them.

Over the years some things stopped working. The radio and cassette player stopped working long ago. The windshield wiper fluid leaks. This began shortly after having the fuel filter replaced. My mechanic likely cracked the reservoir but it may be a loose seal. The driver side door doesn't always want to open with the key. One or more pins in the lock must be sticking. I have loosened them and gotten the key to work but they eventually get stuck again. Worst case scenarios...the lock will need to be replaced or you will get in the habit of opening the truck from the passenger side. The check engine light has been on for about 6 years. Once in a while it goes off. It stayed off for a few weeks straight after having the catalytic converter replaced. The emergency break light stays on too. Even when the emergency break is off. And of course the windshield wiper fluid light is on. I recently had the wheel bearings and ball joints replaced on the front passenger side. It is logical to assume they will need to be replaced on the driver side eventually. If that becomes the case, there will be plenty of warning. For a few weeks prior to having them replaced, it felt as if the power steering had gone. The seats have some staining and discoloration. There is some glue markings on the tonneau cover in the pictures. The cover is in great shape. No rips or tears. I put the tape on the cover while visiting a friend in a high crime area in order to deter any potential theft. I will have the glue cleaned off by the time the truck is picked up. White paint spilled on the bed liner as can be seen in the photos. Otherwise, the truck is in great shape. It runs beautifully. I am only passing it on because my brother gave me his Subaru...and I couldn't pass up all wheel drive. Feel free to message me with any questions. Should you be the happy future owner of my truck, payment must be made in full within a week of the auction's close.

Thanks,

Keith

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:

Refreshed 2013 Toyota Landcruiser Prado gets official [w/video]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

We'd seen leaked images of the the refreshed 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, now Toyota has deemed it officially ready for the European masses it is aimed at. We can only hope the masses are ready for that grille, probably the most intense of the many changes made to the volcano-eating truck. The new face and its "powerfully projecting vertical bars" were designed to "accentuate the new Toyota's rugged appearance," as if the legendarily capable SUV wasn't rugged enough. Other changes include redesigned headlight clusters, stronger character lines along the sides, new taillights and license plate "garnish" in back, and a slew of new wheel choices. Both the three- and five-door are 20 millimeters longer, all of that in the front overhang, but the approach angle apparently hasn't changed.
The new organization of trims runs from Entry to Legend, Prestige and Executive. The interior has been reorganized with better seats in the second and third rows, a new upper center console, a redesigned panel for controlling on- and off-road driving functions, reworked Optitron meters with a 4.2-inch LCD screen, and new switchgear, fabrics and color schemes. Infotainment has been upgraded with Toyota Touch 2 and Toyota Touch 2 with Go. They mirror your smartphone if said phone happens to be either a Samsung Galaxy S3 or Galaxy Note 2.
On-road driving dynamics have been improve with suspension changes, and a Rear Cross Traffic Alert added to the suite of safety features for maneuvering the beast. When it comes to the Land Cruiser's real reason for being, the five Multi-terrain Select choices and five-step Crawl Control are more easily used with a Multi-terrain Monitor reworked for more clarity.

Toyota GT86 14R-60 shows how to do lightweight at a steep price

Sat, 11 Oct 2014

Toyota is finally making good on its Griffon concept from last year with this limited-edition 14R-60 that basically hops through the Toyota Racing Development catalog to imagine the ultimate lightweight GT86 (the continental relative to the Scion FR-S/Subaru BR-Z). Unfortunately, it's not coming stateside, and even if this modded Toyobaru were coming here, you might not want to pay the rather steep price.
Like the concept, the 2.0-liter boxer engine still makes the same 197 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque. However, the drivetrain isn't entirely untouched thanks to a new air filter, engine oil cooler, a reinforced clutch, lightweight flywheel, and mechanical limited-slip differential from TRD. The six-speed transmission is also tweaked, with different gearing in first and second and an altered final drive ratio.
To keep things planted the suspension gets a new coilovers, a V-shaped tower brace in the front and another in the rear. Improved deceleration comes thanks to upgraded brakes. There also are even more goodies on the outside, including a complete body kit that includes a carbon-fiber roof and massive rear spoiler. The stock wheels are replaced with 18-inch forged magnesium units, as well.
