| Article Title :: 2006 Toyota 4Runner |
| |
|
Have you seen the redesigned 4runners? They are all new, and I
mean from the frame up. This would be the 4th generation of the
4runner. The first models were just pickups with camper shells.
I think they modified them slightly up until 1995. In 1996, the
4runner was redesigned completely into an SUV. The new 4runners
are no slouch, either. They have been totally redesigned from
the ground up.
I have a 1996 4runner. I bought it in 1997. It has been the best
vehicle I have ever owned. I've been threatening to get another
4runner, but I wasn't really thrilled with the ride quality of
my old 4runner. Then I drove a new one. They aren't the same
vehicle. Maybe in name only, but the new one is s (read full article) |

| Article Title :: 2006 Toyota Tacoma |
| |
|
Another impressive redesign by Toyota this year was the new 2006
Toyota Tacoma. This truck has morphed from a small to a mid-size
pickup truck. You are familiar with the Tacoma's of the past.
They are as reliable as the day is long, but how will the new
truck compare?
I went shopping, and to be honest, I was checking out the Nissan
Frontier, too. Its been redesigned and is about the same size as
the new Tacoma. The Nissan has a rail system in the bed of the
truck, but the Toyota has it on the deck edge up higher. I like
it better as it seems as though it would make tying off items a
lot easier. Also, in the bed, there are two neat lockable
storage compartments nestled so they aren't notice (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Toyota Parts Online Gears Up Your Toyota 4Runner for the
Challenge |
| |
|
The Toyota 4 Runner embodies your ideals of a sporty vehicle
packed with power, rugged character and wide ranging utility.
Since its debut in 1985, this vehicle has been Toyota's strong
contender in the Sport Utility Vehicle segment. It was loved for
its reliability, sporty styling, functionality and utility.
What sets 4Runners apart from the rest of the SUVs you can see
on the road today is their design. Toyota 4Runners have stayed
close to the definition of a real SUV or rather the original
sport utilities--pickups with enclosed bodies. In the same
manner, these remarkable vehicles have maintained 4WD's real
go-anywhere capabilities. In form and substance, every Toyota
4Runner is your id (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Catalytic Converters and Your Vehicle's Emission System |
| |
|
Before 1975 no U.S. vehicle came equipped with a catalytic
converter. Changes in environmental policy -- started with the
formation of the Environmental Protection Agency [EPA] by the
Nixon Administration - soon changed all of that. Now, with very
few exceptions, all vehicles must come outfitted with a
catalytic converter. So, what does a catalytic converter do
exactly? Good question...we will answer that query in this
article.
When your engine burns fuel it produces gases that are harmful
to the environment. If not handled properly, these same gases
will exit through your vehicle's exhaust and work to do harm on
the environment. The EPA, which was established in 1970,
mandated that starti (read full article) |

Your (Everyone's) Car Battery Is Dying!
Have you ever experienced that arrested experience that grips
you if you turn the key and your car won't start? Most of us
have felt that "oh no, not now" feeling at one time or another.
Most of us don't carry jumper cables in our car. So, now you
must cell-it over to a towing company. Ouch...that going to cost
an ugly penny. Then, when you get the $40.00
minimum-auto-mechanic labor word that you need a new battery,
you can kiss another $50.00 bye-bye.
The lead acid battery industry is a $14B (that's Billion) a year
business. Hardly anyone ever thinks of it, but nothing happens
if a vehicle doesn't start.
The number one automobile problem is failu (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The mysterious "check engine" light. |
| |
|
If you have had your car or SUV long enough, that annoying
"check engine" light has probably made an appearance on your
dash board. The first time I saw it, I popped the hood and
"checked" the engine. It seemed ok to me. My car was running
fine. So like most experienced car drivers, I ignored it or I
tried too. The really insidious thing about that little innocent
light is that it really gets to you after a while. After a long
drive at night with that light shining at me like a laser beam,
I considered putting it out its misery with my tire iron. Which
brings up the question, what is it there for. Well here is a
basic answer. The "check engine" light is connected to the car's
engine fuel ma (read full article) |

|
Folding Tonneau covers are available for pickup trucks of all
makes and models. There are many different types of folding
Tonneau covers. They can be made of aluminum or vinyl with steel
beams. The more panels a folding Tonneau cover has, the smaller
the space it can fold into for storage. Most covers fold from
back to front, but some models have the panels going in the
opposite direction, allowing access to the truck bed from the
sides. Most folding Tonneau covers cost between cost between
$400 and $700.
Both aluminum and vinyl folding Tonneau covers are attached to
the truck bed by stainless steel rods. Most of these rods
require minor drilling along the ridges of the bed, but many

| Article Title :: Choosing the Best Tire Chains for Your ATV |
| |
|
There is an endless selection of tire chains available for all
styles of motor vehicles, and ATVs are no exception. ATV tire
chains vary depending on both the style of the vehicle and the
driver's preference or needs.
One of the first things a potential ATV tire chain purchaser may
want to consider is whether they want two or four link spacing.
Spacing refers to the number of side chain links skipped between
cross chains. With two link spacing, cross chains occur every
two side chain links, and with four link spacing, cross chains
occur every four side chain links. Most experts agree that two
link is always better, because it provides for a more consistent
ride by having more chain on the (read full article) |
