1980 Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Pena Blanca, New Mexico, United States
Absolutely beautiful 1980 BJ40 Toyota Landcruiser with 4 spd manual and
2B 3.2L, indestructible Toyota Diesel Engine. The odometer currently shows approximately 150,000 km (turned over
once) which comes out to approximately 93,000 original miles. This may change because I do drive it some for fun
and because it is the most reliable vehicle I own. The truck has absolutely no rust anywhere and was resprayed in
its original Toyota Red color in 2014. This was a frame off repaint and the truck had very little rust at the time
so there was no need to replace body panels-just to primer, sand, and paint. The paint job is not perfect, but it
does look beautifully renewed and shines in the mid-day New Mexico sun. The instrument cluster, seats, switches,
wiring, door lock hardware, windshield wipers, windshield sprayer, fuse panel, wiring, taillights, license plate,
axels, transmission, frame, motor, and various other parts are all original. Some of the ancillary accessory parts
such as turn signals, hood latches, sun visors, and some other wear items are replacement items sourced as Toyota
OEM, mostly new old stock, sometimes used. Comes with a Toyota Landcruiser original 3-piece floor mat for the front
seats.
This truck has been sorted and gone through and it drives and rides great. It sits at the original ride height on
original leaf springs and shackles. The shocks were replaced at some point in the past. The wheels are Toyota OEM
15" steel wheels with Toyota hubcaps. The tires are brand new as the old ones were showing signs of dry rot and
cracking. This is a beautiful, nearly show truck, that you will absolutely love.

Hyundai tops Toyota in annual CarMD Vehicle Health Index
Fri, 06 Dec 2013CarMD has released its third annual Vehicle Health Index, which for the 2013 tracked the frequency and cost of repairs for "check engine" problems of 119-million vehicles built between the 2003 and 2013 model years. For the first two years of the index, Toyota ranked at the top of the list, but this year's results see Hyundai moved to number one, pushing Toyota down a spot.
The Korean automaker's rise to the top has been "fueled by its low repair frequency," according to CarMD. Toyota is second to Hyundai in lowest repair frequency, but Toyotas also have the highest average cost of repair. (Interestingly, General Motors vehicles have the lowest average.) Both Toyota's and Hyundai's manufacturer "health" ratings suffered this year, but Toyota took a bigger hit, which also is what helped Hyundai achieve the top ranking.
While Hyundai is the top manufacturer in the index, the 2012 Toyota Camry is the top vehicle. The best-ranking Hyundai was the 2010 Elantra (behind three Nissan models and four Toyotas), which took the number eight spot. Hyundai has six other vehicles in the top 100.
Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S sales disappointing worldwide?
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Okay, folks - it appears we've got a problem. The Toyota GT86, Europe's counterpart to our own beloved Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S coupes, is apparently not selling too well. This, according to Toyota's European Vice President of Research and Development, Gerald Killman, is what's limiting plans for additional variants of the rear-drive coupe.
"A faster version of that car would be at the top of most people's wish lists, but like the cabriolet, it is hard to justify a business case to push either model into production based on the current sales," Killman told AutoExpress. "Personally, I think that engine could use a little bit more," he added.
More troubling is that slow sales aren't limited to the Euro-spec car, with Killman claiming that the GT86 have been missing sales targets in major markets around the globe. It may not be that the US is one of those major markets, though. Scion's Vice President, Doug Murtha, tells Autoblog that his brand is happy with the sales of its version of the GT86, the FR-S. 18,000 units were sold last year, which Murtha says is "generally in line with original expectations for the car."
Spongebob Squarepants Toyota Highlander gets Tanked in Vegas
Thu, 07 Nov 2013In 2006, I bought a Scion xB (the super upright, first-generation one), and I always had this wild dream of turning the xBox into an aquarium after it had run its course in my personal test fleet. Long story short, that never happened. But apparently the folks at Toyota got wind of my idea - only, well, this isn't exactly what I had in mind.
Let's just start at the beginning here. This is a 2014 Toyota Highlander - you know, the redesigned one that bowed in New York earlier this year. I haven't driven it yet, but I'm sure it's plenty nice and will appeal to all sorts of families. Families with kids. Kids who like cartoons. Cartoons like Spongebob Squarepants.
Which brings me to our next talking point: the collaboration between Toyota and Nickelodeon for the Spongebob-themed wrap that covers every inch of this Highlander. This isn't the first time we've seen the yellow cartoon sponge on a Highlander - Toyota unveiled a differently wrapped version earlier this year - but this one features more of an aquatic, under-the-sea sort of theme. Perfect, considering the main point of this crossover's reason for being at SEMA.
