I alright as much as I don't want to I'm putting up my MKIII for sale, I've been kidding my self thinking that it can be a reliable daily driver so I think its best if she goes on to someone with a little more time and the resources to take care of her. I got this car in November 2011 from a place called Corporate Auto Brokers in Cummings Georgia. with 104,000 miles on it, its at 116,000 now. I got it with a blown head gasket and didn't realize it until about march of last year when It really went and started to smoke and get hot on me. So I parked it and it sat all summer. I got the head resurfaced and valves done with the seals and a new Felpro gasket kit with ARP bolts. The work was done by my mechanic. Hes the head mechanic for a local trucking company and used to own a shop that specialized in Volkswagens back in the 80s. And a family friend, so I was with him while he worked on it almost the whole time. We got it finished up in September has been running great but there has been a few slight issues. Theres some sort of issue with the idle control valve cause it wants to lope when I first start her up but clears soon after that. And the coolant hose in the back of the head blew witch was replaced with new Gates hoses. Other than that there is a leak in the power steering system some where. It functions correctly but needs to be filled about every 2 weeks or so. My Mech thought it was a pressure line and bought one to replace it when he did the coolant hose but it didn't turn out to be that and I was in a hurry to get the car back and he works full time and then some at his job so I didn't have time to wait for him. Other than that I think it needs a wheel baring in the back. Oh and almost forgot me and a buddy replaced the diff back in November it was making a whirring noise and I put in that MotorCraft gear oil when we did the job. I forgot the miles on the replacement one but it was under 100,000. And I installed one of the old style Driftmotion Intercooler kits and when It the Head was done I got one of those ebay RDDPs witch has held up pretty good. Along with that I had a local exhaust shop build a full 3'' system with a high flow cat and to a Full Boar Performance muffler. Speaking of the turbo it boost pretty well but is smoking and is on its way out. That it for all the major mechanical stuff. Theres some smaller things that need done. I like it would be best to go though and replace all the coolant hoses, things like that I just don't have time to do it. And I just got a new set of tire on it. Ohsitus cheapys but I couldn't afford Dunlops like I had on there before like I wanted. And I have a used set of Tokico Illumina IIs with a eilbach pro kit waiting to be put on.
As for the body and interior they are in amazing shape. Out side the white its awesome and dose not look like 22 year old paint. no dents or dings. no major scratches or nicks. Only issue is on the front bumper. I had some little girl in a camaro in front of me on the interstate run over a piece of blown out semi tire and kicked it up at my front bumper where it cracked the black trim misshaping it a bit as well as take some of the paint off the bumper.
The interior is amazing. It had to have lived in a garage for most of its life. Cause its in beautiful shape. The dash In great shape no cracks or discoloration. The head liner looks about new. The matts are a little tired and same with the carpet its getting quite nappy but no major stains or flaws. only let down is the drivers seat. Having it sit out in my Mechs drive most of last summer I guess let a a crack in the seat started to get wider and I eventually tore it some how and its worked into good sized spot now. But other than that I describe it was if it was found in a cargo container from like 1996 as to the body and interiors' condition.

Toyota Tundra ditches V6 for 2015
Fri, 12 Sep 2014The Toyota Tundra debuted in new-ish form for the 2014 model year, but as we head into 2015, the truck boasts a couple of small updates. Most notably, the base V6 engine has been discontinued. On top of that, there's the new TRD Pro model on offer for 2015, which we've told you about before.
Why kill the V6? Simple - it was very low-volume. "The Tundra V6 take rate was significantly less than five percent," a Toyota spokesperson confirmed via email to Autoblog. So for 2015, the two V8 engine options remain - a 4.6-liter unit with 310 horsepower and 327 pound-feet of torque, or the more powerful 5.7-liter powerplant with 381 hp and 401 lb-ft. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive is standard. Four-wheel drive, of course, is available with either engine.
The only other noteworthy changes for 2015 include an optional integrated trailer brake for the 5.7-liter models, a new rear under-seat tray storage system for Double Cab trucks, and a spray-in bed-liner. Scroll down for the official press blast.
Toyota Tacoma X-Runner dead
Tue, 06 Aug 2013A report from last week indicated that Toyota will begin trimming models from its Tacoma lineup starting with the Regular Cab in 2015, but the popular pickup will lose its first variant even sooner than that. For 2014, the Tacoma X-Runner has been dropped, though the company's SR Package could fill the need of those looking for a sporty pickup.
The X-Runner has been around since 2005 with its lowered stance, aftermarket-look body kit and bright paint colors, all of which are offered available only on V6-powered, two-wheel-drive Access Cab Tacomas. The new SR Package sounds like it will offer a somewhat similar appearance, though, with a monotone exterior paint scheme in limited colors accented with smoked headlights, but it will only be offered on Pre-Runner and 4x4 models. Other changes being made to the 2014 Tacoma include a new wheel option with black finish, a wider variety of Entune multimedia features, and the option to have the backup camera display moved from the rearview mirror to the audio system head unit.
Tesla expects another higher-volume deal with Toyota in next few years
Tue, 09 Sep 2014Four months have passed since Toyota ended its relationship with Tesla Motors, in which the electric-vehicle specialist supplied full lithium-ion battery packs to the Japanese behemoth for its RAV4 EV rollout, of which 2,500 vehicles will be completed. Now, Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk has been heard suggesting that a future collaboration is likely within the next two to three years, and that it will probably be much larger than the last one.
Both Tesla and Toyota have sung each other's praises in the not-too-distant past, Toyota telling Autoblog back in May, "We have a good relationship with Tesla and will evaluate the feasibility of working together on future projects." According to Automotive News, Musk said of the Japanese giant, "We love working with Toyota... We have a huge amount of respect for them as a company and certainly much to learn."
Interestingly, though, the two automakers have rather divergent strategies for eco-friendly automobiles. Toyota, as you're surely aware, is the clear-cut leader in hybrids and has thrown its massive support in the direction of hydrogen fuel cells, while Tesla has invested heavily in battery-electric technology and high-speed charging stations.
