Selling my Lx450 aka Toyota Landcruiser. The truck is very clean overall. The exterior shines really nice and there are a few minor chips in the body clad paint. If you are looking at my ad, you probably already know how bullet proof these rigs are. I bought this almost 2 years ago as a toy/winter rig. The last 2 winter have been too mild, and I really don't need 4 vehicles. The wife says the vehicle with the least use has to go.
I looked all over the country for a nice LX or Landcruiser. I chose this one because it was not a total rust bucket underneath. Also, it was lady driven by both prior owners. I'd rather have one that was a soccer mom mobile, than a off-roader. There is no apparent body work & vin tags are all in place. There is a ding on the fuel door, and minor chips a small scratches here and there. Basically what would be expected of a vehicle this age, but It does look very clean overall.
This one does NOT have the front and rear lockers. It has the center locker when 4 low is engaged. Honestly, I'm not taking it rock crawling or taking it down nearly impassable trails. This truck is more than able to handle mother natures wrath and have a little fun here and there.
It has Michelin stock size tires with 90% tread remaining. It has leather interior with 3rd row seating. The front seats are in decent shape. Minor wear and cracking. Not completely ripped or anything like that. The power seats fore and aft travel only works manually. Common problem on the 80 series with fairly cheap fix. I don't move the seats, so I didn't bother. Overall in very nice shape! No check engine lights and starts up and goes with ease. Under the engine there is a bit of oil here and there as very common with all 80 series this age, but doesn't seem to leave any oil on the ground. If it does, it's ever so slight as I don't notice anything where it's parked. The only real maintenance I know of were the scheduled maint. during the first 100k miles and oil changes pretty routinely. The previous owner changed the battery, egr valve, and oil changes. I have done a few oil changes (Castrol GTX 5w30) a coolant flush with {Toyota red} and PCV valve and breather hose. Engine starts up smooth and trans shifts smooth. No knocks, bangs or anything of that nature. Overall, the truck feels and looks like it has 94k miles.
I apologize for the lack of detailed photos, but I have videos and more pictures available. Also, if you would like high resolution pictures of anything on the truck. Please let me know.
For pics or questions, please email me @ almanzab1979@gmail.com Thanks for looking!

2016 Civic, Sonata, Lexus RX, and Altima earn TSP+ from IIHS [w/videos]
Thu, Jan 14 2016The 2016 Honda Civic sedan, Hyundai Sonata, Lexus RX, and Nissan Altima started the year with a bang by earning Top Safety Pick+ honors from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. They join 48 other 2016 model year vehicles that IIHS already tested that received the agency's top safety marks. These four models met the IIHS' latest requirement, scoring the agency's best possible score in all five of its crash tests – front, side, rear, rollover, and the difficult small-overlap – to be eligible for the safety accolade. Hyundai improved the 2016 Sonata's structure after the sedan's production began, so this rating only applied to examples produced after October. To get the TSP+ honor, a vehicle's crash prevention tech needs to earn least two points on the IIHS' scale. The lower Top Safety Pick designation can go to model with a "basic" version of these systems like a front collision warning. The Civic, Sonata, and RX scored the maximum six points to get "superior" scores for their optional crash prevention tech because they avoided collisions at up to 25 miles per hour. The Altima was successful in a 12-mph test, but the system slowed the sedan by 10 mph in the 25-mph test rather than completely stopping it. Therefore, the agency awarded the Nissan five points, which was still a "superior" score. You can watch the small-overlap tests for the Civic, RX, Altima, and Sonata respectively below.

Four more vehicles earn the 2016 TOP SAFETY PICK+ award ARLINGTON, Va. — The Honda Civic 4-door, Hyundai Sonata, Lexus RX and Nissan Altima are the latest vehicles to earn the top award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The four vehicles join the 2016 winner's circle just one month after the initial crop of 48 TOP SAFETY PICK+ winners was announced. The requirements for TOP SAFETY PICK+ were tightened for 2016. To qualify, winners must earn good ratings in each of the Institute's five crashworthiness tests and have an available front crash prevention system earning an advanced or superior rating.
Lexus, Mazda and Subaru top Consumer Reports Brand Report Cards
Tue, 26 Feb 2013A revised methodology in devising its annual Car Brand Report Cards has seen Consumer Reports award Lexus its top overall ranking for 2013. For the first time ever, the institute broke out individual brands from their larger corporate umbrellas, meaning car makers like Lexus and Scion were judged independently from parent company Toyota. That strategy worked out well for Lexus, as the luxury brand earned a top report card score of 79 for the 2013 model year.
The institute has recommended every one of the Lexus models it has tested to date, and said that the company's products won out thanks to "a foundation of plush and very reliable vehicles."
Meanwhile, Mazda and Subaru tied for the second-highest scoring report cars, with scores of 76. Subaru earned praised for sporting models like the BRZ, which CR testers apparently had a lot of fun driving (naturally), while the Mazda products were lauded for their blend of practicality, sportiness and efficiency. Both of the Japanese brands offered good handling, fuel economy and versatility, said Consumer Reports.
Lexus US execs want the LF-1 Limitless concept or something like it
Sat, Jan 20 2018Many years ago, Mercedes-Benz counted many blue moons debating about and then hinting at a full-sized SUV, before the GLS-Class arrived in 2007 (known then as the GL-Class). After that, Audi and BMW each grabbed a gilded handle on The Waffler's Cup, equivocating for years about a Q8 and an X7, respectively; both of those luxurious load-haulers are expected in showrooms soon. Having seen the Lexus LF-1 Limitless Concept at the Detroit Auto Show, we wonder if Lexus intends to hoe that same row - dodging years of questions about a production version of the LF-1 Limitless before finally committing. Lexus US general manager Jeff Bracken hopes that's not the case. His address to the unveil audience at the NAIAS included the appeal, "We have to build this vehicle," aimed at his boss, Lexus global chief Yoshihiro Sawa. Bracken stoked the flames of his own desire after the reveal, telling journalists, "We couldn't be happier if we turned this into a production vehicle," and, "We clearly have a gap at the high-end premium cross-utility segment." We're certain plenty of his colleagues share the sentiments, and why wouldn't they? A Lexus LS-based family functionary begs the question, "Why isn't this already a thing?" The LF-1 Limitless does fierce, futuristic service to its Ghost in the Shell design philosophy of "molten katana," and Lexus needs a proper three-row crossover. Not the three-row RX, nor the opulent, cretaceous GX and LX SUVs, but a unibody crossover to challenge the aforementioned German rivals. If Lexus really does "want to be the brand which is emotionally connected with the customer," it would do well to begin its courtship with this rose-copper gem.
