This is an absolutely rust free example of the highly valued 2nd generation 4Runner SUV.  Its black on the outside, in fact its all black, including the bumpers, the mirrors and all the chrome.  Its currently wearing 20" black rhino forged alloy wheels with Nankang sport tires, but I also have the original factory alloys that are also painted black.  Its very sharp looking with its recent respray, and its as straight as an arrow with NO RUST anywhere.  Its also a 5-speed manual, which is a fantastic option for a number of reasons.  The first reason is because with the automatic, these trucks are incredible slow, but not so with the manual trans.  Its actually pretty fun to drive, even when you're driving on a paved surface.  The 4WD works perfectly, so as fun as it is to drive on pavement, its 10 times as fun off pavement.  The engine, trans and drivetrain work great, the only flaw being that this one still has the mechanical speedometer which works fine, but chatters a bit at high speed.  Its no bother, but you do hear the mechanical speedo from time to time.  I think in 1993 or 94, Toyota used an electronic speedo that made much less noise.  Anyway, this is a totally blacked out 4Runner in unbelievable shape, both physically and mechanically.  The interior is OK, but not nearly as nice as the outside.  The driver's seat is threadbare and worn, so I have it covered in authentic sheepskin.  The passenger seat is also covered in black fur, but its not the real stuff.  The seat itself is fine with no rips or tears.  The back seat is in great shape, but its got a black "Dickies" cover on it just to keep it nice and maintain the black look.  It has a Pioneer AM/FM/CD/MP3 player with an aux input, so I plug my iPhone into it and listed to Sirius satellite radio through my iPhone.  The head unit is fine, the speakers in the truck are not so great, but they work.

So I priced it at $4,995 with the black rhino alloys and the nankang tires, which I think is a bargain, or in the alternative, I'll sell the truck with the factory wheels for $3,500 cash.

Toyota RAV4 "Adventure" brings the butch

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

Just last week, your humble author had a 2013 Toyota RAV4 in his garage, and he couldn't help noting that even in mid-level XLE trim, its aesthetics lacked oomph, due in large part to its cheap-looking black bumpers and airy-looking wheel wells. Judging by the RAV4 "Adventure" on display at the Geneva Motor Show, someone at Toyota must've been thinking the same thing.
With Japan's biggest automaker understandably focused on bigger reveals, information on this butched-up softroader has proven to be hard to come by, with no press materials whatsoever. We don't even know if this is a pure concept or if it's actually being considered for production. Either way, we approve. The 20-inch dark-finish alloys probably don't do much for ride quality, but they certainly look nicely aggressive, as does the new lower fascia with its prominent lower lip. Other changes include beefier wheel arches, side rails, headlamps with integrated LEDs, twin-element fog lamps and mesh grille inserts. All of the changes are quite well integrated - enough so that the Adventure largely avoids looking like a SEMA refugee in person.

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.

Toyota engineer warns automous cars could increase fuel use, urban sprawl

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

An increasing number of people are starting to consider the potential downsides of a transition to autonomous cars. The FBI is already looking at them for the potential ill effects on law enforcement, and a scientist for Toyota is raising the possibility that driverless vehicles could actually be detrimental to the environment over the long term.
Ken Laberteaux, who studies future transportation for Toyota, thinks that autonomous cars could lead to more pollution, not less, says Bloomberg. However, Laberteaux's theory isn't so much based purely on science as it is considering behavioral and historical trends. "US history shows that anytime you make driving easier, there seems to be this inexhaustible desire to live further from things," said Laberteaux during a presentation at the Automated Vehicles Symposium in San Francisco, CA, cited by Bloomberg.
Laberteaux's belief is that if commuters can make their drives easier, then they will be more willing to live farther away from the cities where they work. The end result would be more urban sprawl and increased pollution from the longer travel times.
