HI,

Selling my beloved 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser - Gold Package with roof rack, brand new towing package & all the options possible for this Land Cruiser. It is the Gold Package most easily identified by the Gold trim hood emblem and rear gold lettering.
I am 2nd owner, bought in November, 2004 from Vasser Chevrolet in Napa, CA.
Meticulously well maintained by my good friend Randy, chief mechanic at Toyota Vallejo.
I bought truck with about 78k miles on it and over time she now has 282k miles. The truck received complete reconditioning in spring of 2011 with more then 12k in parts and labor to truck, sparing no expense and had truck running better then when I first purchased it in 2004!
The Land Cruiser is the best SUV, period. Safe, splendid on long drives, I cannot say enough about Land Cruisers.
The truck will always take care of its owner providing basic maintenance is done. Currently, this truck needs a new right front axle assembly.This was the last bit of under carriage stuff to do as shocks, struts etc are all new from 2011.
New owner will also want to install a new battery down the road. There are no dents, there is some slight peeling of the clear coat finish on hood, although hardly any.
The truck has never been driven off road or towed anything but is built very well for these things.
My driving consisted of commuting to and from work 4 times a week and once a week drive with my daughter to take her to dinner. The Land cruiser is very safe and my family very precious to me. Addtionally, the Bay Area commute down I-80 is gentle on vehicles, some of the people out there driving today are reckless and the Land cruiser greatly reduced my apprehensions. It is a big, solid and heavy truck but drives like a BMW 6 series I used to own long years ago!
She has been driven to and from San Diego to visit family and this is where the Land Cruiser really shines. She does better on gas mileage on highway then the dealership said. Moreover, she is really meant to cruise the land and would fly in and out of the grapevine with ease. The power of this truck is amazing and it handles exceptionally well. It is a luxury truck, but then really good at what trucks are supposed to do.
I am selling my Land Cruiser for only one reason due to chronic health problems that became life threatening and have suffered the financial troubles that go with serious illness. I have to get thru this bump in the road.
My very tragic loss can be someone else's gain. I know a great deal about these trucks, alot more than car dealers and my friend at Toyota taught me so much about the Land Cruiser.
The Toyota Land Cruiser body type changed in 1998 and remained the same thru 2007. Toyota introduced a tft type GPS travel thing in the dash as option in 2001, made it standard in 2002. This is the exact same body used during same years for the Lexus 450, except that truck had some a softer transmission and some cosmetics to appeal to the luxury folks. Several Toyota folks told me in confidence though that the best Truck overall was the actual Landcrusier.
Anyhow, new owner would need to register and smog truck which I am certain she will pass.

New owner needs to install the right front axle assembly which top of line brand new factory part is less then 100$. Completion of this repair means truck can be driven anywhere, any season, tires are all weather and are 4 new Coopers, plus new Cooper spare.
Oh! Land Cruiser is Black with a light tan interior, has 3rd row seats which are carefully stored in my garage and has custom cargo floor liner as well as up front and rear seating floor liners. Has sun-roof as well.
Truck has heated seats, power windows, super cold air conditioning, rear air conditioning & heating, all the options, nothing spared.
Look up a Kelley blue book 1999 Toyota LC & toss in "very good" as condition with all options & you will know what you are getting.
This Land Cruiser is destined for a million more miles on current engine and transmission and also has 4 new tires, and I am not joking about the million miles!
Truck is in Fairfield, CA.

This is sold cash only OR certified cashier's check. As is, no warranty expressed or implied. No PayPal. I will provide incentive discount for buyer who knows the value of this truck offer and will need to tow it to your mechanic to complete right front axle assembly installation. Local pick-up only. Please feel free to have your mechanic, any local mechanic come by and give it a thorough go thru.

This is a really great truck I paid 25k, another 22k in financing :(, & I put another 20k into necessary maintenance, essentially over maintaining it.

First Toyota unintended acceleration case headed for trial

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Toyota is going to be back in the spotlight, as the first of its unintended acceleration lawsuits is headed for trial. This case covers a Los Angeles sushi shop owner, Noriko Uno. According to the what the family told The Detroit News, Uno only put about 10,000 miles on her 2006 Toyota Camry in four years. Uno was apparently afraid of high speeds, avoiding the freeway and taking a route home along LA's surface streets to avoid them.
On August 28, 2009, Uno's Camry suddenly accelerated to 100 miles per hour, eventually striking a telephone poll and a tree and killing her. The family contends that Uno attempted to step on the brakes and pull the emergency brake, neither of which brought her speed under control, while Toyota maintains that improperly installed floormats and driver error have been behind the majority of the 80 cases expected to be heard in court.
In Uno's case, The Detroit News is expecting the trial to focus on the lack of an override if the gas and brake pedals were pressed at the same time. Brake overrides were installed on Toyota's European fleet. The Uno family attorney will need to prove to the jury that it wasn't driver error that killed Noriko Uno.

Gazoo heads to the N"urburgring with Lexus LFA Code X

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

You'd be forgiven for thinking just because the Lexus LFA has ended its production run (it's been over a year now) that Toyota would have ceased its development. You'd be forgiven, but Gazoo Racing is here to tell you you'd still be wrong.
One of Toyota's many works racing teams, Gazoo is returning to the 24-hour endurance race at the Nürburgring this year with a trio of entries. One is based on the Toyota GT86 (which we know as the Scion FR-S), and one is essentially the same LFA that it's entered in years past. But the third vehicle is dubbed Code X.
It's also based on the LFA, but its 4.8-liter V10 engine has been bored out to 5.3 liters, raising its output to untold levels. It's got a full carbon-fiber chassis and a range of other enhancements that Gazoo isn't telling us about just yet, but they should turn the LFA Code X from a road-going supercar beyond a racecar and into a rolling research lab. Considering that Gazoo has been racing at the 'Ring since 2007 and fielding versions of the LFA there since 2008, it'll be interesting to see how the Code X version fares.

Toyota issues stop sale on 6 key models over seat fabrics; recall possible? [UPDATE]

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Toyota has issued a stop-sale order on six of its core models due to concerns about the flammability of certain seat fabrics. The issue rests not with the cloth and leather covers themselves, but with a piece of seat heater beneath them that fails to meet US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for flame retardancy.
There have been no reports of fires or injuries from the affected cars, which include some of Toyota's biggest volume sellers. 2013 and 2014 Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon and Sienna models equipped with heated seats are included in the stop-sale, as are 2014 Tundra pickups and Corolla sedans. The exact number of vehicles with the non-compliant materials are still being tabulated, according to The Detroit Free Press.
According to a Toyota spokesman, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, although it remains to be seen if a recall will be issued. Outside of a full recall, though, it's unclear how Toyota will deal with vehicles equipped with the flammable materials that have already found homes.
