1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Full Time 4WD 4X4 <br>
Clean Title, Pink In Hand <br>
Rare 40th Anniversary Edition <br>
*Sorry no diff locks on this one* <br><br>

Here's your chance to own an Iconic truck. This is the last year of this body style and they are very difficult to find in this good of condition. The body and interior are overall in very good condition, just a few minor dings/scratches here and there, see pics. Previous owner had this thing for 14 years and all owners have kept it in the garage since new, notice there's no paint fade like you usually see with these model Land Cruisers. <br><br>

This truck also has a fully boxed frame making it a very solid and safe vehicle. These things are built like tanks. Bullet proof engine and drive terrain, 1 ton axels front and rear (plenty strong enough to handle 35" tires. Famous straight six motor - this is one of the most reliable engines Toyota has EVER built. 300K+ miles is common place on these things. <br><br>

This truck even has the orignal tools, jack, socket set, etc. These are all very rare to find still with the truck, they usually end up in someones garage and never follow the truck. <br><br>

Cruiser has a lot of new items & approx. cost (I have most of the receipts):<br>
 - New BFG All Terrain Tires (top rated for snow)
- $1200 <br>
- New Alternator - approx. $200 <br>
- New hoses including the large expensive one
that connects to the air filter - $300 <br>
- Just had the oil change, new oil filter, etc. I
will smog for buyer <br>
- New battery - $120 <br>
- In total I've probably put in over $2000 into
the truck in the last year and a half<br><br>

Fully Loaded! Features Include:<br>
 - Power everything: steering, windows, seats,
door locks <br>
- Sun roof! <br>
- Tinted windows<br>
- Hitch set up <br>
- Alloy wheels, with all of the center caps
(those usually tend to go missing) <br>
- Leather Interior, great condition for its age.

No rips! <br>
- Two tone leather that only came with the 40th
Anniversary Edition <br>
- Three row seating, 7 passenger <br>
- Removable third row for extra storage <br>
- Roof rack (stock) <br>
- CD Changer & AM/FM Radio<br>
 - Automatic transmission <br>
- Full Sized Spare<br>
- Straight axle front end <br><br>

There's only a few minor problems:<br>
 - Slight oil leak/consumption. I only have to
add a quart a couple of times between oil changes, every 1500 miles or so. <br>
- Power antenna button doesn't work. My mechanic
told me it should be an easy fix, but it's not that big of a deal to me. All other power itmes work! <br>
- Sometimes has a squeek in the steering collumn
when turning (usually when its cold), I looked it up on forums, just needs to have some grease put on underneath the steering wheel somewhere. <br>
- Driver side visor hangs a little low, doesn't
bother me, but if your over 6' tall it might. <br>
- Sometimes the rear passenger side door light
comes on as if the door is open when its not.<br>
- That's about all I can think of, really is in
great running/mechanical condition. <br><br>

This truck will make a great daily driver, family car, weekend warrior, camping truck, ski/snow board rig, fishing & hunting truck, build your rock crawler, etc. Your wish is it's command! You will love this Land Cruiser. SOLID SOLID TRUCK. Sorry I don't have very good pics, I will update later when I can.

 

I prefer to deal locally, but may consider other methods of sale. I will only sell within the US.

Toyota unveils two new small displacement engines

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

Toyota introduced a pair of brand-new engines in Japan today, that it says will eventually spawn 14 different variants by 2015. Where these two engines stand out in today's world, is that neither mill boasts direct injection, and both are naturally aspirated.
The larger of the two is a 1.3-liter, while the smaller engine, a 1.0-liter, was developed in collaboration with Daihatsu. What makes these two unique is that they both use the Atkinson cycle. Now, we aren't going to bore you by explaining just what this is - there's Google for that. Suffice it to say, Atkinson engines are highly efficient, but that efficiency comes by sacrificing power. That's why they're so popular in hybrids, which can offset the power losses.
This focus on fuel efficiency extends throughout the new engines, which also benefit from tweaks like a cooled exhaust gas recirculation system and a trick intake port, while the 1.3 employs Toyota's iE variant of variable valve timing. Both engines can be fitted with stop-start tech. According to Toyota, when fitted with stop-start the 1.3 should provide around a 15-percent bump while the 1.0-liter will increase economy around 30 percent, when they arrive on the road.

Toyota, Kaley Cuoco grant wishes in Super Bowl XLVII ad

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

For viewers who plan on watching the Super Bowl only for the commercials, here's one for you to enjoy ahead of time. As we saw in the teaser video that Toyota released last week, will be making the transition from Big Bang to The Big Game as a wish-granting genie in a commercial for the 2013 Toyota RAV4.
Though not as entertaining as the actual teaser for this commercial, it still garnered a couple chuckles from the Autoblog crew. We won't spoil it for you, but a word of advice: if Cuoco ever shows up in your driveway granting you wishes, we'd suggest you be very clear what you want... and enunciate.
If you want to see the commercial before this Sunday's game, we have the video (and an accompanying press release) posted after the jump.

Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"
