1978 Toyota Fj45 Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Cumming, Georgia, United States
|
This is a very nice, original FJ45 that is daily driven with 178K on the clock. I searched long and hard to find this truck, and I sincerely hope somebody that truly appreciates them wins the auction. Mechanically, it needs nothing that I`m aware of and I drive it regularly, sometimes daily. I will say that at one point last month after driving in downtown traffic for almost an hour of stop and go, I think I felt the clutch slipping in 3rd gear. I have driven it more than a few times since then, but have not noticed it. I did order a new clutch (stock) from Cruiser Corps. and it will go with the truck. If you're familiar with these, you know how difficult it is to find a left hand drive late model truck like this in the US that isn't rusty. My best guess is that this truck was rust proofed at the dealer when new, because the frame and floors are in excellent shape. The body has a few places here and there, but as far as FJs go, this truck is nice and is definitely not a "rust case" and never has been. The engine is strong, transmission (4-speed) is great but if you're looking to go to the drag strip you might want to consider another vehicle. The steering is tight, brakes are great and everything works as it should (even the dome light) The BFG all terrains are in great shape, with far more than 50% tread life.
This will be my second time in ten years selling a vehicle on Ebay, so if my ad/format reads goofy, my apologies. I will gladly accommodate shipping to any location you choose (on your dime) I doubt any sensible person would want to drive much more than a few hundred miles in this tank, but schedule permitting I will pick you up or meet you at true airport here in Atlanta. This FJ was imported originally from Canada, but has been registered here in the south for many years and has current tag and registration. In Ga. they don't need a title on anything older than 1986 and will be sold with a bill of sale. If your state requires a title, let me know and I'll do my best to work out getting one for you. |

Tesla now California's top automotive employer
Fri, 16 May 2014Tesla has knocked off Toyota as the biggest auto employer in the state of California, employing over 6,000 people to the Japanese company's 5,300. That lead is only likely to grow, as the EV manufacturer prepares to add another 500 jobs by the end of the year, and as Toyota begins its relocation to its new North American headquarters in Texas. The news comes barely a week after the company announced a $50 million loss during the first quarter of 2014.
Tesla's statewide employment could be set to double, beyond even 6,500 people, if it follows through on rumors to construct its eagerly awaited gigafactory in the Golden State. The $5-billion venture could add another 6,500 employees, making Tesla not just the largest automotive employer in the state, but making it one of the largest employers in the state full stop.
The investment of Tesla and its founder (and real-life Tony Stark), Elon Musk, has been substantial. The company has added 3,000 employees in the state since 2013, reopening the Toyota and General Motors joint-venture factory that use to be known as NUMMI in 2009 and constructing a design studio in Los Angeles, all in addition to its Palo Alto headquarters.
Toyota FT-1 Concept presents a future we want to live in [w/videos]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014Toyota has brought its A game to the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, showing off the striking FT-1 Concept. Short for "Future Toyota," the FT-1 is, we're imagining, the supposed Supra Concept we reported on early in December.
Penned by the Calty Design Research team, the FT-1 draws inspirations from the FT-HS and the Lexus LF-LC concepts from 2007 and 2012, respectively. We certainly see a bit of Lexus LF-A in the design, while there's more than a hint of Formula One in the FT-1's pointed nose.
"Our team was heavily influenced by Toyota's sports car past, especially Celica and Supra, and we sought to capture some of that history. It is an aggressive, track-focused sports car concept with a presence that has been amplified for shock and awe," said Alex Shen, Calty's Studio Chief Designer.
2014 Toyota 4Runner priced at $32,820*
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Toyota has announced pricing on its facelifted 2014 4Runner. The rough-and-tumble SUV will be available in three grades: base SR5, upmarket Limited and off-road-ready Trail. Depending on the trim level, buyers will have the choice of rear-drive or one of two different four-wheel drive systems. The sole engine is Toyota's 4.0-liter, 270-horsepower V6.
Entry-level buyers can get an SR5 for $32,820. That includes 17-inch wheels, fabric seats and Toyota's Entune infotainment system. Adding four-wheel drive bumps the price by $2,920, while the Premium Package (SofTex faux leather seats, navigation, sunroof, auto-dimming mirrors and power passenger seat) adds $1,875. All model prices listed do not include $860 for destination and tax.
The Trail starts at $35,725, while the Trail Premium bumps the price to $38,645, adding the same suite of equipment found on the SR5. While it boasts the same standard equipment as the SR5, the Trail is better suited for going off road. A multi-terrain response system comes standard, as does hill-start assist and Toyota's Crawl Control. For an extra sum, buyers can opt for the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System, which automatically disconnects the sway bars for better articulation and trail holding.
