I bought this Land Cruiser about 4 years ago with hopes to lift it and make a huge off roader. Reality is, it has mostly sat in the garage I don't see throwing a lot of suspension parts at it when it is so nice stock, so I decided to sell it. It has 147k miles  with stock lockers, and runs perfectly. The only mechanical thing that is wrong with it is the cable inside the antenna is broken( as are most 4 runners and land cruisers) other than that every single button, switch, everything works perfectly. After I purchased it I installed double plat. plugs, high grade plug wires, new distributor cap and rotor, air filter, etc. It has fresh full syn. oil and fram syn. 10k mile gold filter. I have high end parts(Australian comp. ceramic brake pads for front, denso(oe) ignition coil, etc.) that it doesn't need yet that come with it. Every single square inch of this vehicle has been gone through and is mechanically perfect. I even tried to service the e lockers and they were perfect no new gaskets or anything( as you guys know these elocks are precise and dependable but very expensive to repair if not maintained properly). I meticulously maintain all of our vehicles(Toyotas) with top quality o.e. or higher grade parts. The exterior is in good shape with no known dents or dings, some scratches mostly on the hood(most are rubs that will buff out), the only thing I would consider not normal wear and tear on a 16 year old vehicle is the scrapes that have been touched up on the drivers side front quarter panel under the 40th emblem, and the small area centered above the windshield where the paint is bubbled a little, I was told it was a scrape that was touched up without using the correct primer( about $100 or less at body shop with sand, prime, paint). Other than that the paint is very glossy and deep. The interior is beautiful, the drivers seat shows a little wear but no tears or rips, way better shape than most ive seen, the rest of the int. is flawless. The paint code is Antique Sage Pearl 1B2 which was only offered in 97 and only for the 40th ann. This Land Cruiser literally has every single option Toyota offered, including the Toyota 2000 alarm with glass break sensors,e lockers, 40th ann., paint code, climate control, etc. The truck has been professionally cleaned inside and out, and I tried to fix every little thing I could think of before sell.  I truly hate to sell this vehicle especially since it has driven flawlessly since I purchased it. It has nice yokohama geolander tires. I also have the leather bound 40th ann. owners manual, a stock land cruiser maintenance manual, a Toyota 2000 alarm manual, and all other original manuals and literature from initial sale. This truck was a 12 year corporate lease for the first owner( he let his daughter drive it some which resulted in the scrape for mentioned on the quarter panel, it was the only damage on the incident(accident) reported, and I have all receipts for this and everything else from the original owner) the auto check and carfax speak for themselves. The good thing about the corpo. lease is it had to meet all Toyota factory maintenance intervals its whole life as part of the lease agreement. I am the second owner. All serious bidders are welcome to contact me through ebay, and will give my phone number for any and all questions. Serious bidders and inquiries only. This vehicle is sold with no warranty implied, and is being sold as is, so please ask any questions before bidding.

Toyota engineer warns automous cars could increase fuel use, urban sprawl

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

An increasing number of people are starting to consider the potential downsides of a transition to autonomous cars. The FBI is already looking at them for the potential ill effects on law enforcement, and a scientist for Toyota is raising the possibility that driverless vehicles could actually be detrimental to the environment over the long term.
Ken Laberteaux, who studies future transportation for Toyota, thinks that autonomous cars could lead to more pollution, not less, says Bloomberg. However, Laberteaux's theory isn't so much based purely on science as it is considering behavioral and historical trends. "US history shows that anytime you make driving easier, there seems to be this inexhaustible desire to live further from things," said Laberteaux during a presentation at the Automated Vehicles Symposium in San Francisco, CA, cited by Bloomberg.
Laberteaux's belief is that if commuters can make their drives easier, then they will be more willing to live farther away from the cities where they work. The end result would be more urban sprawl and increased pollution from the longer travel times.

Leaked Toyota FT-86 Open concept images preview droptop Scion FR-S [w/video]

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Here it is, folks - the highly anticipated Toyota FT-86 Open concept, a precursor to what could become a road-going Scion FR-S convertible. A full smattering of images and video have leaked onto the internet, and thanks to the folks at FT86Club.com, we can now see the new hotness that Toyota will be unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
These images confirm details that were first seen in spy shots captured a couple of weeks ago - namely, the larger wheel/tire package and the inclusion of the Toyobaru coupe's decidedly useless rear seats. These new photos, however, show a two-tone leather interior with goodies such as an iPod/iPhone mount on the dashboard. The concept car is also fitted with the coupe's six-speed automatic transmission (boo!) and FT86Club.com reports that the folding soft top is operated electronically.
We'll have the full details live from Geneva in just a few days. For now, click through our attached image gallery to see lots of pretty pictures of the topless wonder, and scroll down for a video to see the concept in motion.

Toyota recalling 11,200 Scion iQ models over faulty passenger sensors

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Toyota has announced a voluntary recall of 11,200 Scion iQ models from the 2012 and 2013 model years. According to the manufacturer, the problem with these pint-sized hatchbacks concerns the front passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) weight sensor cables.
The OCS sensors in the front passenger seat control the operation of things like the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner. In these affected models, the cables for these sensors located in the seat track can become damaged as the passenger seat slides forward and backward. And if the cables are damaged, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner may not function properly.
No injuries or crashes have been reported in conjunction with this issue.
