1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Full Time 4WD
Clean Title, Pink In Hand. This is your opportunity to have a nicer Land Cruiser than your friends.
Rare 40th Anniversary Edition
*Sorry no diff locks on this one*

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. To my knowledge there has only been three total owners of this vehicle.

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, just ask any Land Cruiser enthusiast.

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.

Cruiser has a lot of new items:
- New BFG All Terrain Tires (top rated for snow) - $1200
- New Alternator
- New air filter hose
- Just had the oil changed, new oil filter, etc. I will smog for buyer
- New battery
- In total I've probably put in over $2000 into the truck in the last year and a half
 
Fully Loaded! Features Include:<br>
- Power everything: steering, windows, seats, door locks
- Sun roof
- Cruiser control
- Tilt wheel
- Tinted windows
- Hitch set up
- Dual  power seats
- A/C & heater work great
- Alloy wheels, with all of the center caps (those usually tend to go missing)
- Leather Interior, great condition for its age.
- Two tone leather that only came with the 40th Anniversary Edition
- Three row seating, 7 passenger
- Removable third row for extra storage
- Roof rack (stock)
- CD Changer & AM/FM Radio (stock)
- Automatic transmission
- Full Sized Spare
- Straight axle front end
- Does come with the original floor mats, they're just not in the pics.

There's only a few minor problems:
- Slight oil leak/consumption. I only have to add a quart a couple of times between oil changes, every 1500 miles or so.
- 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!
- 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.
- Driver side visor hangs a little low, doesn't bother me, but if your over 6' tall it might.
- Sometimes the rear passenger side door light comes on as if the door is open even thought it is closed
- That's about all I can think of, really is in great running/mechanical condition.

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. Message with any questions. Thanks for looking.

Report: Daihatsu leaving European market

Sun, 16 Jan 2011

More than any other, two carmaking giants sit at the top of the industry: Toyota and General Motors. But while GM sells under a (shrinking but still) expansive range of brands, the Toyota Motor Corporation sells most of its vehicles under its own name. That doesn't mean that Toyota, however, doesn't have its own portfolio of subsidiaries. Here in the United States we have the youth-oriented Scion division, while Lexus handles its upscale offerings, and overseas there's Daihatsu.
The budget brand offers a range of small cars under its own name; most are hatchbacks, but there's also the Copen roadster and even a rebadged Camry called the Altis. You may have come across some of their offerings while traveling overseas, particularly in Europe, but that last part is about to come to an end, according to reports.
Word from across the pond is that Toyota plans to withdraw Daihatsu from the European market altogether. The move would reportedly take effect in 2013, and if it comes to pass, would follow similar withdrawals from the North American (1992) and Australian (2006) markets. Thanks for the tip, William!

Honda, Nissan and Mazda recalling 3 million vehicles for airbag inflators

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Three million more vehicles can be added to the worldwide tally to be repaired for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata. Honda, Nissan, and Mazda have all issued recalls to replace the bad part, including about 1.2 million of them in North America. NHTSA has been investigating all three companies, plus Chrysler and Toyota, for potentially affected vehicles.
Honda is recalling roughly 1.02 million Civic, CR-V, Odyssey and Element models In North America, built between April 2000 and October 2002. Mazda needs to repair 14,794 units of the RX-8 and Mazda6, and Nissan has 228,000 vehicles in North America to be fixed.
Chrysler is also starting what it calls a "regional field action" to replace the inflators in the 2006 Dodge Charger, according to a company spokesperson. The company says that it has not yet found the problem in any of its vehicles, but it's being done "out of an abundance of caution." The final number of Chargers affected will be announced later this week.

2014 Toyota Highlander greets the world with NYC debut

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Toyota has pulled the wraps off its all-new, 2014 Highlander in New York this morning, giving Americans a first look at what is sure to be a heavyweight in the mid-size crossover segment.
The new third-generation Highlander will come with the buyer's choice of three different powertrain options. The base model will be powered by a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission with front-wheel-drive. Next up the ladder is a 3.5-liter V6, also mated to the 6AT, which can be had with either front-or all-wheel-drive. Finally, the Highlander Hybrid will be equipped with all-wheel drive, its 3.5-liter V6 mated to an electric motor, all hooked up to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The automaker has not released any specs for fuel economy or output yet, though we're promised increases in both power and efficiency.
While not a revolution in terms of styling, Toyota has cleaned up the bodywork for the new model, offering a crisp, conservative look for the slightly larger Highlander. The vehicle is some three inches longer and an inch-and-a-half wider than the outgoing model, yet it has a lower roofline. Black plastic-clad wheel arches make an attempt to butch up the crossover, though to our eyes, the Highlander still has the look of a minivan around the rear view.
