- Company Profile:
A mechanical component of an ignition system, usually driven by the camshaft, that distributes the electrical power to the spark plugs. Replaced in most modern vehicles with a distributor-less ignition system.
Industry:Automotive
Rather than use a mechanical distributor to time spark plug firing, the distributorless Toyota Direct Ignition (TDI) system places an ignition coil on top of each spark plug (in some cases, two spark plugs share a coil). This eliminates many wear items and reduces the number of parts in the system as well as the number of high-voltage wires under the hood.

4 door cab with choice of 6 passenger (front bench seat) or 5 passenger (captain chairs) and 4 full-opening front-hinged doors and fully retractable rear windows.
Industry:Automotive
This is an independent suspension system in which each wheel is located on a "knuckle" that is connected by ball joints to upper and lower A-arms that are unequal in length. This system minimizes changes in track and camber during cornering and when driving over bumps.
Industry:Automotive
The amount of cash or net trade-in allowance applied to reduce the cash sales price of a vehicle. Most retail transactions require a down payment of 10 to 15 percent of the amount to be financed. However, the required down payment can be less, depending on your credit standing, ability to repay and other criteria. A down payment helps lower your monthly payment, as well as establish equity in your vehicle.

Refers to where the engine is placed in the vehicle and which wheels power the vehicle.
Industry:Automotive
The long hollow shaft with universal joints at both ends that carries power from the transmission to the differential in RWD and 4WD vehicles.
Industry:Automotive
The system that takes engine output and transfers it to the wheels to produce motion. Consists of the transmission, transfer unit (if 4-wheel drive), driveshaft(s), differential(s) and axle(s).
Industry:Automotive
Consist of a rotating drum that is attached to the wheel. Drum brakes are popular because of their self-actuating design. As the brakes are applied, the centrifugal force of the turning drum tends to apply the brakes harder without requiring additional pressure from the brake pedal.
Industry:Automotive
The weight of the tow vehicle without cargo or fluids and, in some cases, trailer. Most RV campers include the trailer in the dry weight.
