1984 - Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Wheeler, Mississippi, United States
1984 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 but I need a new vehicle that will accommodate my kids better. I bought this cruiser from a seller who resurrected the vehicle from an approximately 10 year barn storage. Thus, the extremely low mileage of 90,848. This is the third FJ60 that I've had and it's the best so far. Here is a list of the work that the previous owner reported (all work reportedly done by a professional mechanic but unfortunately, I do not have the records): Removal and cleaning of fuel tank Rebuilt carb New belts New spark plugs New rancho shocks New brakes New windshield New muffler and tailpipe New oil pan gasket Transmission was removed to replace rear main seal and front input seal Here is a list of the work completed since I have owned it (all work done by professionals and I have all documentation/receipts): New tires (31" toyo) New stereo (Sony CD with Bluetooth and usb connector) New front speakers Tinted windows Transfer case seal replaced New fan clutch New radiator New thermostat Tow package Custom floor mats AC recharged New fuel filter Repaired exhaust leak Exterior is all original and in great condition for it's age and shines up nicely. There are some minor fading spots in the paint on the hood and roof (see photos). There is some minor surface rust on the undercarriage (see photos). Interior is also all original except for the upgraded stereo. All interior and exterior lights work. All doors and windows function as new. All weatherstripping good. All original tools and jack equipment in place. All parts under the hood are original except those that have recently been repaired/replaced. AC blows cold and heater blows hot. There is a small tear in the driver side seat (see photos) and a small crack in the dash. Original rims. Tilt wheel. Rear wiper, Rear defrost. Headlight washers. Working factory choke. No major dents or dings. Smoke free environment. Always garaged. Includes full car cover. 31" spare tire. This cruiser drives great. It has it's original straight 6 cylinder motor. Steering and alignment are perfect. 4 speed transmission and shifts into gears smoothly. Engine is running strong. Hi/low 4wd work. Recently tuned up and idles great. Passed California smog. This cruiser is near perfect for its age. It is rare to have an opportunity to purchase a land cruiser in this good of condition with this low mileage. You do not want to miss the chance to be the owner of this vehicle. If you know land cruisers, you know that this one will drive forever. Keep this cruiser on the road where she belongs.

eBay Find of the Day: Back To The Future Marty McFly 1985 Toyota SR5 pickup tribute
Mon, 05 Aug 2013With DeLorean time machine replicas thick on the ground, it was only a matter of time before someone started recreating the other vehicles in the McFly garage. At the end of the first Back to the Future movie, Marty returns to 1985 to find his sweet-looking Toyota SR5 truck all waxed and ready for his date. That truck always did look great in the movie, and now's your chance to own this close facsimile.
This Back to the Future replica Toyota is on eBay with a price of $14,500, which the seller claims is half of what's been invested. Perhaps that's true, but it's still a nearly 30-year-old truck that's covered 280,000 miles. The seller does say the 22RE engine has been recently rebuilt, along with the rest of the drivetrain, and there's new paint, too. The attention to detail is admirable, and if you've always admired Marty's '80s-chic 4x4, now's your chance to own it.
2015 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro
Thu, 23 Oct 2014Despite the earnest efforts of Japanese automakers like Toyota and Nissan, the American pickup truck scene remains wholly dominated by the likes of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler. This is not news. Part of the reason is because of the sheer number of variants offered by US automakers - everything from work-spec base trucks to house-leveling heavy duty models can be had, with a seemingly endless combination of engines, cab sizes, bed lengths and trim levels. It's a hugely profitable business, and though the Japanese automakers still offer competitive fullsize trucks, in terms of sheer volume, they simply don't compete.
But American pickups aren't just about work; there's a huge play aspect involved, too. Look at the desert-storming Ford F-150 SVT Raptor or the Ram Power Wagon - these butch trucks are built with superb off-road prowess in mind, and Detroit's Japanese rivals have once again largely been silent in this segment. Until now.
Introduced at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, Toyota now offers the TRD Pro series of models that, in addition to the crazy-orange Tundra seen here, includes the smaller Tacoma pickup and 4Runner SUV. And this isn't just some pretty appearance package, either - there's honest-to-goodness capability baked into all of the TRD Pro models. Intriguing, for sure, so I recently spent a weekend with the big boy Tundra to see what's what.
Toyota settles first wrongful death suit related to unintended acceleration
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Toyota's sales seem to have rebounded from the unintended acceleration issues from 2009 and 2010, but the automaker is far from done dealing with this situation. Following a settlement worth up to $1.4 billion for economic loss to affected vehicle owners, Toyota has settled rather than going to trial in a wrongful death lawsuit stemming from an accident in Utah in 2010 that left two passengers dead. This isn't the first case in which Toyota has settled, but it was the first among a consolidated group of cases being held in Santa Ana, CA.
According to The Detroit News, this case was scheduled to take place next month, and it was for a November 2010 incident in which Paul Van Alfen and Charlene James Lloyd were killed in a Camry when, based on findings by the Utah Highway Patrol, the accelerator got stuck causing the car to speed out of control and hit a wall; the terms of the settlement were not announced.
The article says that while Toyota will settle on some cases, it doesn't plan on settling on all of them as it still wants to be able to "defend [its] product at trial." This will probably be the case in suits claiming that software for the drive-by-wire accelerator was the cause of an accident in a Toyota or Lexus vehicle. The question of whether or not the electronic accelerator played any role in this problem has been a hot-button topic since the beginning. Toyota has issued recalls in the past to attempt to prevent unintended acceleration caused by trapped floor mats and faulty accelerator pedals, but it also says driver error was to blame in some instances.
