I am selling this extremely low mileage 1979 FJ40 Land Cruiser beauty which is in pristine condition. I first saw this immaculate truck in 1996 in Runnemede, NJ in response to a classified ad. I took it for a test drive that afternoon and it was love a first sight. It had only 28,000 miles on it and looked factory new and drove like a new truck. The owner said he bought it from the original owner who had it in storage. I went home to get an ok from the boss and phoned the owner that night only to be informed that he had just sold it. Needless to say, he broke my heart. I continued my search for another cream puff FJ40 in the Philadelphia & New Jersey region but FJ40's are scarce in this area. I finally responded to a Philadelphia newspaper classified ad in 1998 for a 1979 that turned out to the one I tried to buy in 1996. It now had 32,500 miles and still in the same immaculate condition as when I first saw it two years earlier. I bought it on the spot and since have had many happy years with this awesome truck. Sadly to say, I must sell my faithful and beautiful FJ40. I have recently retired and in the process of selling our much too large home and we are going to downsize to a condo. My truck has only about 37,500 miles on it now. I only put about 5,000 miles on it over the past (15) years due to a demanding international traveling schedule. This truck has been spoiled and always maintained with frequent oil changes and coolant changes even though it had low miles. It has always been garage kept and has never seen a night outside. After rain, it was always wiped dry. This FJ40 is truly a "Garage Queen". The exterior and interior paint (031) is in immaculate condition. I was told by the second owner that the paint was original as was the brown striping which was dealer applied. There are no dents, dings, chips, scratches or rust. The truck has ambulance doors with a factory swing out spare tire rack. The fiberglass reinforced steel hardtop is removable. All doors are in mint condition with mechanically perfect operating windows and locks. Steps are in mint condition. All glass is clear with no chips or cracks. All metal Toyota emblems are intact and in excellent condition. The interior paint (031) is in excellent condition. There is a factory roll bar along with (2) opposing fold down seats. Head liner is white and in excellent condition. All seats are vinyl and grey and equipped with seat belts. Door panels are matching grey. Door panels and seats are in mint condition except for some slight fraying on the driver seat bottom about 2" long.. The dash board is black and in mint condition with no cracks or fading. Front black Toyota floor mats are in excellent condition. The front heater and blower along with rear floor heater work great in the cold weather and operate perfectly. Rubber boots for transmission and t-case floor shifts are in excellent condition. All gauges, speedometer, odometer are in perfect condition with wipers that always park properly. The cab is perfectly tight with no air or water leaks. The 2F (4.2 L, in-line 6) is strong and in excellent condition. A new catalytic converter and exhaust piping was installed this past summer. I have never registered this truck in New Jersey as an antique vehicle, therefore, it was always subject to New Jersey's strict emission standards during bi-annual inspections. It always met the standards and I have copies of all the inspection results. The brakes and e-brake are strong and there is no squeaking, squealing or pulling. The engine compartment is exceptionally clean. The hood and its latches are in excellent condition. Tires are GoodYear P235-75R-15 (90%+) tread that are mounted on the original steel wheels with original chrome hub caps. The wheels original grey color was replaced with a dark brown color to match the exterior striping. The swing out spare tire rack has a never used spare matching tire. The truck has black fender flares and a locking fuel access door. Also, the original Toyota jack kit and repair tool bag are included. E X T R A S Console mounted TUFFY LOCK-IT-BOX complete with a PIONEER radio-cassette player with dual cup holders. The box is grey and floor mounted between the front bucket seats. All in excellent condition. 2 rear mounted SPARK-O-MATIC speakers. SHARP CB radio mounted behind driver's seat.

Lexus LX to get diesel engine?
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Australian consumers appear poised to get another diesel-burning luxury SUV in the near future, and word is it's coming from Lexus, of all automakers. Sean Hanley, chief executive of the company's branch in Oz, recently told Aussie website Drive that he's "pretty confident" that the new engine for the LX is getting the green light.
Like in the US, the LX in Australia is currently only offered with a 5.7-liter, gasoline-burning V8. However, sales of the big SUV are presently minuscule Down Under, with Drive reporting just 153 LX570s sold in all of Oz last year. Hanley is negotiating with Japan to get the new diesel in hopes of boosting flagging sales. If his efforts are successful, it would be the first diesel engine offered in a Lexus there. Hanley didn't specify exactly which mill the SUV would get. However, given the LX's close relationship with Toyota Land Cruiser, the diesel 4.5-liter twin-turbo V8 already available in the Toyota in markets outside of North America seems like a natural choice.
Don't expect the variant to be hopping across the Pacific, though. Lexus spokesperson Allison Takahashi tells Autoblog she has heard "nothing" about an oil-burning LX coming to the US. That's not a huge surprise, though, because neither Toyota nor Lexus offer any diesels in their lineups today. Also, Lexus has only sold 1,981 LX570s through June, which only placed it ahead of the LFA supercar in the brand's sales. It's probably just not worth certifying the engine for such a low-volume model.
Toyota Camry incentives and fleet sales cranked to keep sales crown, insiders worried
Mon, 01 Jul 2013We've been watching for some time now as Toyota has piled more incentives on the hood of its Camry sedan, and Automotive News reports that the we're not the only ones with raised eyebrows. The current Camry hasn't even been on the market for two years, but the family sedan segment is more hotly contested than it has been in years. It's that high level of competition that has led the automaker to uncharacteristically add more money on the hood in order to assure it maintains its long-held title of America's Best-Selling Car, a mantle it has owned for a dozen years. It's ramping up fleet sales, too.
According to the analysts at TrueCar, Toyota has bumped incentives per unit every month this year, now totaling some $2,750 as of May, a 38-percent hike over this time last year. That's more spiff money than the segment's other best sellers, the Nissan Altima ($2,400), Ford Fusion ($2,300) and Honda Accord ($1,400), all of whom have actually decreased their incentive spend by 20- to 40-percent over the same period.
The ramp up in incentive spending and fleet sales has analysts concerned that Toyota will tarnish the Camry's historically sterling resale value. ALG pegs the 2013 Camry's current 36-month residual value at 54.4 percent, well ahead of the segment average's 50.9 percent (but shy of the Accord's 55.6 percent). However, analysts are concerned that as the current generation ages, their resale values will eventually plummet if incentives continue to increase as Toyota looks to keep the Camry's best-selling car crown going forward.
