1997 Toyota Landcruiser AWD SUV. I am the second owner (it was sold by a Knoxville Physician to a car dealer I know and I immediately turned and purchased from him - so it is listed as 3 owners, but I am in the real sense I am the second household this car has been in) and this has been my daily driver for 6 years. Currently has 226,900 miles-I am still driving it some. Leather interior seating for 7 including the rear cargo area fold-up seats. Am/fm/cd with iPod interface and amplifier, alarm, sunroof, ac, heat and rear heat, power windows and locks, tilt, Class 3 hitch (It pulls our 3500 pound wakeboard boat easily). Replaced radiator and battery last year. Michelin X-ice tires are 80% or better. Good oem spare. Has never been in major wreck or had frame damage. Rear right bumper was hit in parking lot before I bought and correctly repaired- no accidents at speed. I have had to touch up the exterior paint in places over time and those touch up places have faded some so that needs to be done again IF you wanted it to look near perfect - no rust or bare places- only areas which have been touched up over the years but at any distance, you do not see even those - no rust on body, all body panels are solid - Interior is very clean - only issue is the front leather finish is wearing off in places - the leather itself is in good order - no rips, tears. Carpet has no rips or tears or holes, anywhere - no major or unsightly stains. Small bulb which illuminates the AC power control is out, power controls still work, just need the bulb replaced behind if you wish to see the power level buttons at night. This never bothered me enough to fix. Mechanically, has been very sound over the years - almost always garaged - Uses some oil on higher speed interestate type driving over hours of driving - This takes several hours of high speed travel to notice any oil use. Also, does have an oil drip- I believe it is the rear seal. Again, this never bothered me enought to fix it and it doesn't leak enough to have to adjust fluid levels- my mechanic has told me this is fairly common on this series Landcruiser. Overall, this is a reliable, well maintained car. I have not seen one personally from this age in better condition. I have been on the fence for months about selling it as I have a newer Landcruiser now and am just having a hard time parting with this one. I have no worries about driving it anywhere. Feel free to ask me any questions. Reserve is set well below NADA retail (and I am using the correct mileage adjustment), and vehicle is up for sale locally so auction can be cancelled upon local sale. Sold as is without a warranty. Vehicle can be seen or driven any time prior to auction close with notifying me up front. Thank you

Japanese dealer petitioning Lexus for luxury van [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Used to be that if you wanted a luxury automobile - especially one to be chauffeured around in - your choices were basically limited to a sedan. It could be bigger or smaller, more or less expensive, depending on your needs and budget, but it was always going to have four doors and a trunk. But these days the rich and famous are looking elsewhere for their commodious forms of pampering transportation. There are, of course, the crossovers and SUVs, which only seem to be getting bigger and more expensive thanks to the likes of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Range Rover L and upcoming Bentley sport-ute. But luxury vans are becoming the new big thing.
That's the point that one dealer in Japan is trying to make to Toyota. The dealership owner himself reasons that if he's going out on the town, he's likely to take his chauffeured Lexus LS. But if he's taking a few friends along, even the biggest sedan isn't going to cut it. So he takes a Toyota Alphard (pictured above, also known as the Vellfire), a JDM van that's even bigger than a Voxy/Noah or Sienna but hardly a high-end affair. That's why he's asking Lexus to make a luxury van.
The idea may seem a little far-fetched, but isn't without precedent. It didn't take much for Lexus to transform the Land Cruiser into the LX and thus create its first luxury SUV. And as Mercedes has shown with pimped-out versions of the Sprinter and now with the debut of the new V-Class in Geneva, there's clearly a market for it... in some countries, anyway. The only question in our minds is how long it's going to take other luxury automakers to catch on, because let's face it: the Chrysler Town & Country ain't gonna cut it for those used to be driven around in a Maybach.
Toyota recalling 20k 2014 and 2015 cars and CUVs with 3.5L engines
Thu, 18 Sep 2014Toyota has announced a recall of roughly 20,000 vehicles covering the 2014 Avalon, Camry, Highlander (pictured) and Sienna, as well as the 2015 Lexus RX luxury crossover. The affected vehicles are all powered the 2GR-FE engine, which in layman's terms, is Toyota's well-regarded 3.5-liter V6.
According to Toyota's statement, a parts supplier might not have welded "the end cap on the right-hand fuel delivery pipe in the engine compartment" correctly, meaning fuel could leak. Leaking fuel, of course, increases the chance of an engine fire. That said, no fires, crashes or injuries have been reported due to the issue.
Owners will be notified to report to dealers, where techs will check the fuel delivery pipe and fit a replacement part as necessary.
Toyota recalling 615k Sienna models over rollaway risk
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Toyota has announced a recall affecting approximately 615,000 Sienna minivans due to a possible rollaway risk. All of the vehicles in question are from the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 model years.
In an official statement, the automaker states that the problem stems from the vehicle's shift lever assembly. "Because of the potential for damage to the shift lock solenoid installed in involved vehicles, there is a possibility that the shift lever could be moved out of the 'P' position without the driver depressing the brake pedal," Toyota said. Because of this fault, the affected Sienna models could roll away without warning, increasing the risk for a crash.
Owners will be notified via first class mail, and the affected Sienna models can be taken to Toyota dealerships to have the shift lock solenoid replaced with a new one. Have a look below for the automaker's official release.
