You can't get a more capable rig. I personally drove this vehicle from Paris, France to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and am 100% confident in its abilities. These rigs are hard to find, especially in this type of condition. This Land Cruiser preformed flawlessly for over 11,000 miles of driving and now it's back in the states ready for a new owner.

We've spend over $1,000 and countless hours getting it ready to sell. We're selling it because the charity doesn't have another expedition planed and we really can't justify a Land Cruiser as a "company" car.

Background:

We purchased the rig last March for $14,000 and put an additional $3,500 into it getting ready for the expedition. We added a 2" Old Man Emu suspension lift and an ARB roof rack. We also went through the engine and drive-train, and other systems with a fine tooth comb to make sure they were in excellent shape. The LC drives very well and is quiet.

The video below shows the Cruiser in action:

You'll notice the only issues are cosmetic with a few bumps along the back gate -- one of our drivers backed into some shrubs/trees during a sand storm -- but that driver will remain nameless :). There is a 2" tear in the leather in the 2nd row seat when someone had to get to the last cold drink from the fridge and didn't realize the lid was up tight against the leather. Also there is some carpet staining on the rear lift door but other than that the rig is ready for another jaunt around the world. We've left the window decals in place because people really seem to like them. But they can be removed easily if desired.

Please call or text with any questions. Also, the tires in the picture are not included. The tires will be 4 90% new Big O AT (16") tires. If you want the 4 Toyo M/T tires as seen int the picture please add 1k to the price. Lastly, I reserve the right to terminate this listing for any reason and at any time.

Toyota announces Geneva plans including droptop FT-86 Open concept

Fri, 01 Feb 2013

Automakers from around the globe are gearing up for the Geneva Motor Show next month, and Toyota is giving us a couple teasers of what will be in its display. In addition to what appears to be a single-seat concept called the i-Road (shown at right), Toyota will also give us our first look at a droptop Scion FR-S courtesy of the FT-86 Open Concept.
All we have to go on right now is this sketch shown above, but we do see that this car will retain its rear seats, which could be a potential advantage over one of its key rivals, the Mazda MX-5 Miata. Toyota says that this concept will be used to gauge public interest in such a convertible, but we've already heard that a Scion convertible is already planned to go on sale as soon as early next year. As far as Toyota's other concept, there also isn't much information about the i-Road except that it will be a zero-emissions vehicle and it will have seating for two passengers, which based on the drawing will have the driver sitting in front of the passenger.
Toyota will also show off the European version of the new RAV4 as well as its new Auris Touring Sports, which it refers to as a "medium-size estate." Scroll down for Toyota's tease of a press release.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.

Toyota must go to trial over unintended acceleration suits

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

Toyota is surely readying its trial lawyers, as the Japanese giant is officially headed to court in a pair of cases relating to its unintended acceleration fiascos of 2009 and 2010.
In the first case, the United States Supreme Court has actually got involved in matters, ignoring an appeal from Toyota that attempted to use an arbitrator to settle its California lawsuits. The automaker will now go to trial to face owners of 2010 Prius models over an alleged defect with the anti-lock braking systems, which plaintiffs say made the cars more difficult to stop, according to Bloomberg.
The second trial is a bit more in depth, covering the case of Ida St. John, an 83-year-old from Georgia, that crashed her 2005 Camry in 2009. The accident is believed to have played a part in her death, although the suit, being filed by her grandson, doesn't actually place blame on Toyota for her death.
