Auction is for a 1993 Toyota 4Runner V6 4x4 SR5 4-door with a manual 5-speed transmission and 195XXXk miles on the chassis.
See points above for specific features. Vehicle had all available options in 1993 except an automatic.
Vehicle has spent it's entire life in the dry Mojave and Sonora Deserts and has really minimal rust (just the "patina" type surface rust on the undercarriage).
-Engine was professionally rebuilt by a factory licensed Toyota dealer (Valley Hi Toyota Honda in Victorville, CA) at 155k miles, and so currently has approximately 40k miles on it. The receipt packet for the work will be provided to the winning bidder. This rebuild included the updated head gaskets to replace the problematic originals.
-Mechanically the vehicle is in excellent shape and runs/drives great. A/C blows cold. Everything works. Synthetic fluids used throughout drivetrain (except trans which requires special fluid). The interior is also in very good shape as can be seen in the pics. Note from the pics that the cloth on the driver's seat is starting to tear in the usual spot for older vehicles. Exterior body is in good shape with very few dents. Note that the paint is in poor condition.
-Vehicle is almost entirely stock with the exception of the rear springs. The OEM rear springs sagged over time and I replaced them with aftermarket leveling springs.
-Has 31x10.5x15 tires with lots of tread left as can be seen in the pics. Has a full size spare which also has good tread. Many steering and suspension components have been replaced recently as well as a rebuilt driveshaft.
-Has a new battery (with warranty) and alternator.
-Vehicle has a salvage title from a 1994 roll-over accident. The frame was NOT affected and the entire vehicle has provided problem-free service to us since we purchased the repaired vehicle in 1995.
-Truck has been used on poorly maintained dirt roads, but has never been abused off-road.
-Has a carpeted plywood tool storage box in the left rear bed area that I have found handy but may be removed easily if desired.
-Includes a box of extra parts that can be seen in the pics.
This 4Runner has been very reliable for us. We recently made a road trip with a trailer from Phoenix AZ to Wichita KS and back (snowstorm included) and the truck exceeded my expectations, even in the snow and ice with the trailer!
With the rebuilt engine, this truck should provide many more trouble-free miles!
Truck is located in Surprise AZ, a suburb of Phoenix.
Serious potential buyers are welcome to make an appointment to view the vehicle prior to auction close.
Questions are welcome!
Thanks for looking!

2015 Toyota Sienna
Thu, 25 Sep 2014It's hard to love a minivan, but it's very, very easy to use one. More than any other kind of vehicle - save a panel van, perhaps - the minivan is the most appliance-like of four-wheeled transportation devices. And most minivan buyers don't need to love their purchases; they just need to use them. So when it comes to a minivan's driving dynamics, who cares?
Well, we do. So we perked right up when Toyota talked about refinements it made to the 2015 Sienna, starting with some 142 added spot welds made to the body structure. Normally not stop-the-presses stuff, but Toyota says the added reinforcements prompted Sienna engineers to recalibrate the springs and shocks for improved handling, and our very limited wheel time along the (admittedly benign) roads on the Big Island of Hawaii revealed the 2015 Sienna SE model's handling to be tidier and more engaging than you'd expect for a porky, 4,560-pound, eight-passenger box on wheels.
Driving Notes
Toyota FT-86 Open Concept would make a mighty fine droptop FR-S
Tue, 05 Mar 2013There's nothing wrong with going topless. And Toyota is proving that its FT-86 (read: Scion FR-S/Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ) coupe is just as excellent with its roof removed. It may only be a concept, but this FT-86 Open previews a new droptop from the Japanese automaker to round out the Toyobaru sports car family. We're finally getting the chance to see the open-air FT-86 in person here at the Geneva Motor Show, and we're already yearning to take it canyon-carving.
Interestingly, the FT-86 retains the Toyota coupe's two-plus-two seating arrangement (we'd prefer a proper roadster setup here), but things still look good for this droptop two-door. We'll be curious to see how the car looks with its folding soft top in place (operated by fancy-shmancy electronics, by the way).
As for production intent, rumors have been flying about a production Scion FR-S convertible, but until we hear it directly from Toyota. Consider our hopes in check but our fingers crossed.
Toyota passes BMW as most valuable car brand
Tue, 21 May 2013An annual market study of the strongest brands across various industries has seen Toyota leapfrog BMW as the world's most valuable automotive brand. Toyota's 2013 brand value rose to $24.5 billion, up 12 percent versus 2012 numbers according to market research company Millward Brown's BrandZ Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands list. BMW's value fell slightly; down by 2 percent to a total of $24 billion.
Mercedes-Benz finished in third place in the automotive category, up 11 percent from 2012 for a valuation of $18 billion. Honda ($12.4 billion, down 2 percent) and Nissan ($10.2 billion, up 3 percent) rounded out the top five for the category. Volkswagen was the only other auto brand that finished in the top 100 overall, in 100th place. Audi made the greatest percentage gain over 2012, up 18 percent to $5.5 billion, but finished outside of the top 100.
Technology companies dominated the overall list, with Apple, Google and IBM ranking one through three. Couture brand Prada was 2013's biggest gainer, rising by 63 percent over 2012.
