Be cool like the internationally famous hip girl Juno. Travel safely through harsh elements with Toyota Tough All Trac all wheel drive. Feel secure knowing you have driver and passenger side airbags. Tow like a trucker with a factory tow package. For those who aren't familiar, BLOWN means it is a factory supercharged model. It cruises down the highway. I have LOVED owning this van and am selling it only because my boys are getting too big for all four of us to camp out in the trusty ol' Previa. I had every intention of keeping it until I drove the wheels off it. As such I have done some good stuff and some goofy stuff. The goofiest thing I have done is permanently mounted a set of Yakima gutter mount adapters via through bolting through the roof into the interior. They are strong, but they ruin the collector status of this fine rig. The next goofiest thing I did was replace the oh so chic and upscale leather interior with a more proletarian cloth interior that matches the rest of the van's interior perfectly. I don't like leather and live in So Cal where the stuff heats up and burns the bottom of your legs and sticks to you on a hot day. But leather is the ticket when doing a blue book value so I must have crushed the KBB of my van. There are various nicks and bumps that I did not fix and will be happy to send any prospective buyers detailed photos. On the flip side, when it came time for maintenance I spared no expense and put the best stuff on it when it came time. For example, when shocks and struts were needed I went with the KYB heavy duty stuff and replaced all the springs as well. It overheated the transmission ONCE coming out of Death Valley. (I stopped immediately, let it cool, and continued for the rest of the trip with no problems) so I put in an aftermarket transmission cooler and have never had that problem again. At 126k miles for some reason it cracked a head gasket so replaced the whole motor with a JDM 30k motor from a very nice eBay seller in Santa Fe Springs. It's had new brakes,rotors and tires recently. The stock stereo has been replaced with decent Sony CD/iPod adapter stereo and speakers. Any time I had to do maintenance I put the best stuff in it or on it. I drove my kids in this vehicle and wanted to be sure it was safe and reliable. It has been a great van and has NEVER left me stranded on the side of the road. Like I said, the van is reliable but is most definitely NOT a pristine collectors item. It has some dings but has never been wrecked. It is sold as/is where is and I would be happy to assist the buyer with shipping however I can. Buyer assumes responsibility for getting the van into their driveway. I might be able to drive it to somewhere in California. If I was a single guy with no kids or job I would without hesitation drive this van any where in the country. The photos shown were the only photos on my hard drive this morning. I'll post more ASAP. Nigerian scam artists need not contact me.

Added 9/5. The tent rig is NOT part of the auction but I would be willing to sell it to whoever wins the auction. I am not a usedcarr dealer, the screen name is a joke becuase I am 40 and have never owned a new car and my last name is Carr. Pretty corny.
