Pendleton, Oregon, United States

For sale is my 1970 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser 4x4. It runs and drives great and is a blast to drive. The clean and straight condition it's in always brings out smiles and thumbs up from those that know these FJ's are really getting hard to find in this condition today. The original engine has been replaced with a Chevy small block V-8 engine. Has an Edelbrock Performer intake and Holley Carburetor for good drivability.  To handle the V8 power with no problems, it has a new clutch in front of the original three speed transmission and transfer case. Shifts smooth with no grinding or gear whine.. Hydraulic clutch slave cylinder. New Hankook tires on all four corners with FJ center caps.. The original steering that typically wanders on the road has been replaced with a new steering box and arms that make it a pleasure to drive straight down the road. Second fuel tank is a custom stainless steel tank. Rear hitch mounted in a custom rear heavy duty bumper. Front fold up tow bar. Tow hooks. Stainless front bumper. New dual exhaust, mufflers and tail pipes. The interior is real clean and solid. Has surface rust only. No rot through. The seats were just recovered. Dash has one crack. Gauges and knobs are clean and in good shape. Headliner is gone. Has a added radio and speaker. The underside is rust free and solid. Still shows the original white paint on the floor pans above the drivetrain. That and the new exhaust and clean underside show up in the pictures as well.Take a good look at the pictures. It really is a good driver condition respectable and useable FJ40. Will go down the Freeway at 65 mph at around 3000 RPM.

Please--if you have questions, ask,ask,ask.  I am happy to help make this a great transaction.

Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013

Sun, 15 Sep 2013

When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.

Toyota recalling select 2014 Camry and Avalon models

Thu, 06 Nov 2014

Toyota has announced a rather small voluntary recall, affecting 5,650 Avalon and Camry sedans from model year 2014. Both gas and hybrid models are included in the action.
This recall focuses on the left front lower suspension arm, which may have a bad bolt connecting it to the ball joint. If the car hits a big enough pothole - a real concern as we head into winter - or suffers a major impact, the two components could separate, at which point steering control would more or less vanish.
According to Toyota, there have been no crashes, injuries or deaths due to this problem. Toyota is notifying owners, who will need to report to dealers for a free replacement lower suspension arm.

Toyota Matrix discontinued for 2014

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

Between its slow sales and the upcoming redesign of the closely related Corolla sedan, things haven't been looking good for the Toyota Matrix (for some time now). After 10 years on the market, Toyota has officially announced that it will drop the Matrix from its US lineup following the 2013 model year.
The announcement was made as a part of a press release breaking down what's new for Toyota in 2014, but for now, it doesn't look like any Toyota-branded product will fill the Matrix's spot. The Matrix and its sister car, the defunct Pontiac Vibe, were the final vehicles developed under the joint venture between Toyota and General Motors, an arrangement launched back to 1984.
