What I have for sale is a rebuilt (not frame off) post 9/75 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. This is a beautiful truck that has had A LOT of work done to it. I just returned from 500 miles of highway, beach and small town driving. This truck cruised at 65-70 mph (appx. 12-14 mpg) and the 4x4 engaged smooth and strong. Its my daily driver and can be your daily driver as well--so the mileage will vary slightly when you get it--you just have to like stick shift! It starts up, drives, and is damn near BONE STOCK. Its clean, very little rust (the small amounts are surface). I bought this from a barn in PA and luckily it was rhino-lined inside and out -- after that, Ive completely rebuilt her. Most of this work was done by Black Wolf Auto in Woodbridge, VA and Trademark Classics in Harrisburg, PA. SOME of the work done (yes, I have the receipts):Engine: 1. Completely rebuild the 2F engine. This is bone stock. Drives perfectly -- starts every time -- has about 3k on the rebuilt engine. 2. Brand new alternator from 84 FJ40 -- internal regulator increases voltage to 60 amps. 3. Brand new high volume radiator -- this engine will not overheat. 4. New Distributor and distributor cap. 5. Rebuilt gearbox and transfer case. 6. Safari Snorkel with safari pre-snorkel, stock (1984) filter installed inside the vehicle. 7. New 38mm Carburetor timed for the vehicle. Works great. 8. Just pulled the crank shaft and redid all of the seals - does not drip oil, does not smoke. Oil pressure is perfect. 9. Dash mounted kill switch for when you leave your car in the city. 10. New spark plugs.11. Petronix electronic 1. Rebuilt brand new tie rods/ends -- no worries there. 2. New Toyota shocks (recommended, but you could easily go to Bilstein especially if you wanted to lift her).3. HFS steering stabilizer that works and looks great. 4. JTO Outfitters disc brakes up front and rebuilt stock drums brakes in rear (keep it original!) -- no troubles slowing down the 2F in DC traffic. Interior: 1. Reupholstered front seats -- I keep them covered. The rear seat is a bench seat that folds down.2. Tuffy box installed -- cup holders are in the rear. (I also have the original that is in great shape).3. BTB Box front locking box installed in place of dash pad.4. New Aussie mat fitted and installed with new transfer case/shifter boot.5. Used (but great shape) rear OEM Toyota hard mats. Externally:1. JTO Outfitter winch ready (looks super stock) front bumper. 2. Specter Off-Road rear swing out with dual jerry can holders (included), Hi-Lift Mount (included), axe and shovel handels and lighted license display. 3. CCOT rear tailgate installed.4. Safari Snorkel with Safari Pre-fileter (The regular pre-filter is included). 5. Besttop softtop with soft doors and also the normal hard doors. 6. New windshield wipers, wiper reservoir, and hardware (wiper fluid is intermittent for some reason).7. Brand new Hella Black Magic fog lights -- with dual internal switches.8. New Toyota/4x4 logos and rear flares installed on passenger and driver side.9. CCOT front license plate holder.10. Front Wheeling Hooks on bumper.11. Front Stock hard doors come with the vehicle, painted the same color. The driver side window has a crack in it (appx. 100 to buy) but the window regulator works just fine. 12. This car was repainted in a sort of Willys/military paint job. It looks good but if I held on to it, Id bring it back to Arctic white (original color). Some chips, some bubbles, but this car gets looks and folks generally lose their mind when you drive it. Thats a list of work done -- but Im sure Im leaving something out. Its a damn strong runner and will continue to be forever -- just depends on how you maintain her. You could put 10k into this and sell it for 50 or drive it for the next 20 years as is -- everything works very well. I have clean title (titled in VA) and passed safety inspection (No need for emissions). Car is tagged and titled in VA.

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead
Wed, 13 Feb 2013
Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.
Subaru Indiana plant to stop building Toyota Camry
Fri, 15 Nov 2013Subaru may be set to end production of the Toyota Camry at its Lafayette, IN facility by 2017, according to a report from the Louisville Journal-Courier and a CBS affiliate in Columbia, South Carolina. Speaking to the plant's Executive Vice President Tom Easterday, the whole affair sounds like a done deal.
"Based on changes in Toyota's production plans, they have decided that the award-winning Camry production contract will not be renewed," Easterday said. Easterday was quick to emphasize that just because Camry production would end, doesn't mean jobs will be lost. "There will be no loss of jobs at SIA as a result of this," he said, before adding that the loss of Camry production will have no impact Subaru's $400 million investment to ready the plant for Impreza production in 2016. That said, adding a promised 900 jobs may take longer than originally planned, as Camry production staff are set to be retrained on Subaru production.
SIA currently has the capacity to produce 100,000 Camrys per year, and began production of the family sedan in 2007 alongside production of the Subaru Outback, Legacy and eventually, the soon-to-be-discontinued Tribeca.
Toyota reveals Tokyo Motor Show concepts
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Toyota is getting ready for the Tokyo Motor Show later this month, and to tease us, the Japanese automaker has released photos and information about the concept vehicles it'll be bringing to the show. In all, there'll be five world premieres from Toyota (six if you split the Voxy and Noah minivan concepts), including some vehicles that'll be released in the near future, and others that need more time to incubate.
Let's get the world premieres out first. Toyota is a pioneer of gasoline-electric hybrids, but it's also pursuing hydrogen fuel cell-powered vehicles. The clearest indication of this is the FCV concept, a hydrogen-powered sedan in the same vein as the the FCV-R that will bow at the auto show. (Read more about the FCV, here.)
Other world debuts include the FV2 concept (pictured), a unique, one-seat future vehicle that emphasizes the "Fun to Drive" philosophy; the JPN TAXI concept, a next-generation taxi concept designed with Japanese hospitality in mind; and the Voxy and Noah concepts, next-generation minivans that differ most in exterior design cues and are scheduled to launch in the Japanese market in early 2014.
