Idaho Falls, Idaho, United States
Listing this for our father. It's Cheap and I'm not getting much interest here on Ebay, So I am advertising it locally as well. If a local offer precedes an Ebay bid I will sell it locally. But if I do get an Ebay bid, then it will sell on Ebay. Thanks Please contact him directly with hard questions. 208-360-1636 The last 5 years this rig has spent more time parked than anything else. The chevy 350 starts up with a couple pumps of the gas, and isn't too cold blooded. It runs good. Standard transmission works great. No chatter or jumping out of gear at all. Shifts Smoothe. No leaks on my garage floor. 4 wheel drive is amazing. In its day it was the best 4x4 in the world. Its easy to tell why. There was a bit of rust cut out. and a bit left as you can see. The floors are very solid as you can see in the pictures. Just some surface rust. No rust that I can see on the frame. Looks solid And as these go this one has very little rust. Drives and stops ok, but brakes bleed off if it sits for a long time. Seats are very nice. Has 2 back jump seats, not installed. Has original rear heater. Has bikini/safari top. (not sure how it fits. Never tried it.) Tires have plenty usable tread left. You might switch to radials though. Likes to wander a bit. Used more as a toy than a daily driver. It is a solid FJ40 that needs to go to someone that will restore or use it. Starting bids at just $2800. High bidder gets it. Please if you have less than 10 feedback, call me before bidding. I don't have time to waste relisting if you don't pay. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. I would rather have you excited than disappointed. This is a 45 year old rig. Not new. Great shape for her age though. Buyer to arrange His or Her own shipping. I will assist with loading and work with the shipper's schedule. Sold as is. Please pay promptly. I prefer wire transfer. No pay pal. Thank you.

Oh, Kei Go: Toyota set to enter JDM minicar market?
Fri, 01 Oct 2010Toyota is looking to get bigger... by going smaller. The Japanese automaker is looking to enter the kei car market, a popular segment in its homeland. Kei cars are small vehicles with restrictions on length (11.15 feet), width (4.86 feet), engine size (660 cubic centimeters) and power output (63 horsepower). Currently, Toyota is the only Japanese automaker not producing vehicles for this segment, but that is set to change, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.
Thanks to its relationship with Daihatsu, Toyota can jump right into the kei car game. Daihatsu is one of the largest producer of kei vehicles and it is currently owned by Toyota.
Although kei cars are restricted in terms of size and power, they are not restricted by technology. Automakers utilize different drive configurations, powertrains and amenities to keep their cars fresh. Daihatsu and Toyota plan to work together to produce Toyota-branded kei cars. The two companies will utilize Toyota's knowledge of electric and hybrid systems to produce efficient little vehicles for the Japanese market.
Toyota to buck engine downsizing trend, may go larger and turbo-free
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Turbocharging isn't really Toyota's specialty, and the Japanese automaker isn't being shy about acknowledging it. Koei Saga, a senior managing officer in charge of drivetrain research and development, says that eschewing turbos and increasing displacement of engines using the Atkinson cycle can produce better power gains without sacrificing fuel economy, Automotive News reports.
Toyota is investing heavily in larger-displacement Atkinson-cycle engines in addition to turbocharged engines, but Saga doesn't think the automaker will use turbocharging across many product lines. He apparently remains unconvinced that the technology "makes the world better."
In Toyota's eyes then, Atkinson cycle engines do make the world better, and here's how. Their pistons complete four processes - intake, compression, power and exhaust - in one revolution of the crankshaft, and the power stroke is longer than the compression stroke. Traditional Otto cycle engines require two crankshaft revolutions to accomplish those same four operations and have equal-length compression and power strokes. Atkinson cycle engines are more efficient, but less power dense, though increasing displacement can offset that shortfall.
Watch a Camry driver in full road rage
Mon, 29 Apr 2013There are vehicles that, fair or not, will forever be associated with jerky drivers. But as this very recent footage from an in-car camera shows, even the most mundane of sedans can be piloted by an ass.
In this video, the driver of one very beige Toyota Camry is driving like a person choked with rage. Though we don't see which (if any) actions by our camera car might have lead up to the tirade, we do see the Camry driver swerving from lane to lane, in multiple attempts to get in front of and brake check the couple in the recording.
According to the text associated with the YouTube video, the offending incident took place last week, on a section of I-880 near Fremont, CA. The uploader has gone so far as to include the date, time and license plate number of the Camry driver, in hopes, we guess, that some kind of legal action can be taken against him. Take a closer look for yourself in the video below.
