Here are some more information for Rebuilt Tacoma Truck:

Many people start to look into why their lawnmower, snow blower, or chainsaw doesn't start or run properly only to fail and curse in frustration. There is a reason for this that anyone can overcome just by avoiding these 5 common errors.
1. They have no plan of attack. If you were to decide to put a garden in your backyard or to build a garage to work out of you wouldn't just start cutting wood and nailing it together. You would in fact purchase a design or create one yourself. If you are going to resolve the issues with your small engine equipment, you must have a plan of attack to avoid repetition and to ensure you cover all the bases.
2. They never check the basics. There are a few simple things that every internal combustion engine must have to operate properly whether it's on your boat, car, lawnmower, or trimmer. These are: Compression, Spark, and a Proper Fuel/Air Mixture. You cannot attempt to resolve your small engine problems without knowing if these things exist at acceptable levels in your unit.
3. They don't check things properly. The biggest thing I see on the internet in forums and blogs about small engines is that they claim to have spark coming to their sparkplug but the engine won't fire and fuel pours out the exhaust or the plug is wet. Spark performs differently under compression then it does without it. You cannot accurately test for spark by resting your sparkplug against the engine and cranking it over. If your ignition module or sparkplug are weak and not providing sufficient output (about 12KV or more) you may in fact see spark when tested without compression but as soon as you try to run the unit the spark disappears.
4. They never move ahead to the next possible issue. Someone once told me that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. If you have no spark, for example, cleaning your sparkplug and retesting and retesting isn't going to get you spark. You need to know how the ignition system on your engine works and properly fault find the issue at hand moving ahead and systematically removing what could be causing the issue.
5. They don't seek professional assistance. Sometimes a problem is bigger than you can handle, or maybe you need to learn some things to resolve a specific small engine problem. Going to your neighbour who tuned up his lawnmower at the start of the year, or your local automotive repairman won't get you what you need. Automotive isn't what it used to be and unless your mechanic was wrenching in the 1970s then he probably doesn't really understand your small engine. This is because they are designed and operate differently. Cars and trucks have computers and modules that are tested using a code reader whereas your snow blower does not. If you don't know how a small engine operates exactly, then you probably will never solve your problem. I don't ask my dentist why my back hurts and I doubt you do either.
So if you're trying to resolve an issue with your lawnmower, snow blower, or riding mower, remember these simple mistakes and avoid them. Seek out a reliably trained and experienced Small Engine Technician and ask his advice. Learn to do simple trouble shooting and fault finding techniques that are proven and work every time because they follow the basic principle of how small engines work.

The Toyota 4Runner - Why not purchase a Used 4Runner Engine?
The Toyota 4Runner is a sports utility vehicle produced by the Toyota Motor Corporation. From 1984 to 2011, Toyota released five generations of the Toyota 4Runner. The most recent release (fifth generation edition) of the vehicle is a combination of a full-size and mid-size SUV. Toyota designed the 4Runner as a comfort-driven SUV, and drew inspiration from the shape of a truck in designing the model. The Toyota Motor Corporation manufactures all of its 4Runners at its plants in Japan and Brazil. Currently, 3 models of the vehicle are available- the SR5, the Trail, and the Limited edition.
The Fifth-Generation Toyota 4Runner Engine
Toyota has equipped all fifth generation (2010-2011) editions of the 4Runner with either 2X4 or 4X4 4.0 liter Toyota V6 engines. The V6 is a six-cylinder internal combustion engine. The V6 engine is compact, rigid, and can generally be used in medium-sized cars. Additionally, the 4Runner V6 engine generates 270 horsepower and 278 lb-ft of torque. As compared to the prior version of the V6, this engine generates 36 more horsepower; the V6 Mileage for the 2X4 model is an estimated 17 city and 23 highway while mileage for the 4X4 engine is 17 city and 22 highway. Both models of the Toyota 4Runner engine achieve approximately 19 miles per gallon combined. The FJ Cruiser, the Tundra pick-up truck and the Tacoma compact truck all use the V6 engine. Critics have praised this powerful engine for its fuel-efficiency and ability to handle off-road terrain.
Used Toyota 4Runner models
When purchasing a used Toyota 4Runner, the fifth generation and fourth generation (2003-2009) models are ideal choices. Fourth generation Toyota 4Runner vehicles use standard V6 engine that generates 245 horsepower and produces 282 lb-ft of torque. These vehicles also use V8 engines that produce 235 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. Toyota re-issued the V8 engine in 2005. Though it featured 270 horsepower, the Toyota corporation increased its torque to a more forceful 330 lb-ft, rendering the engine ideal for use in vehicles intended for towing. When compared to the Third Generation, Toyota 4Runner vehicles which were released from 1996- 2002, Fourth and Fifth Generation vehicles seem to be better options. The Third generation 4Runner featured the 2.7 liter inline 4 engine, which measured 150 horsepower and the 3.4 liter V6 engine, which measured 183 horsepower. Critics considered both engines underpowered at the time.
The 2011 Toyota 4Runner is an ideal vehicle for those who require a vehicle for all types of terrain. Its V6 engine is strong and ideal for off-road driving. For those interested in purchasing a used version of this vehicle, the Fourth Generation Toyota 4Runner is also an ideal alternative.

Should we buy a car or wait?
Here are the details:
My husband is in the Army and is supposed to get out in August 2008. I am 4 months pregnant and due in March 2008. We have an 11 year old car with 155,000 miles on it. It needs a new/rebuilt transmission, 4 new tires, brake work, and there is an overheating problem. To fix it, it would cost around three or four thousand dollars.
The truck we are looking at is a 2007 Toyota Tacoma which we will try to get for 23K or 24K. We only have about $2,000 for a down payment. The rest would need to be financed.
We have little debt. The highest debt we have is about $1600 for furniture which we are paying off until January 2009.
We just don't know if we should buy this car now or not with a baby on the way and my husband getting out of the Army.
What do you think?
You definately need something dependable when the baby is here...and you need something dependable while you are pregnant... if you can afford it then I say get it...I have a 2006 Tacoma and its a great vehicle.. get the 4 door if you get it... we just had a baby 3 weeks ago and the 4 door has the room.
Good luck...and tell your Husband thank you for being in our armed service.. some of us actually appreciate it.
1996 Nissan D21 Pickup SE Extended Cab review from North America
Bought this truck at 200,000 miles. Has already had the transmission rebuilt, so that failed around 190k. I have owned this truck for 5 months, and it currently is not running (again). It has major electrical issues, I hear Nissan is notorious for this.
