Here is your chance to buy the legend. 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. 1982 - one of the most coveted years for FJ40's ever!! I can't believe I'm actually selling this bad boy. This may be one of your last chances to purchase such an awesome machine. These vehicles continue to climb in value and are getting harder and harder to find, especially in this type of condition. 

It has the original bulletproof inline six cylinder 2F motor with 134k original miles. It has an Aqualu aluminum tub that was installed about 8 or 9 years ago, according to the previous owner. Last year my Cruiser mechanic and I went through the entire motor and rebuilt and replaced a huge amount of parts. We replaced the front and rear motor mounts, radiator fan, all new heating, cooling, and emission hoses, rebuilt the carburetor and distributor, new spark plugs and wires, fuel pump, fixed all oil leaks and replaced gaskets and seals, replaced the clutch master cylinder, replaced the heater blower resistor (to enable the low fan setting for the heater). All OEM Toyota parts were utilized whenever possible.

In addition to the engine work, we also reupholstered the front seats with Cruiser Corps covers, provided a new dash cap cover, installed a new radio delete plate, replaced the brake, gas and clutch pedal pads, overhauled a new (used) set of 5 OEM Toyota rims with Toyota OEM paint and OEM Toyota chrome center caps, installed a brand new ARB front bumper with an overhauled Warn 8274 winch that works great, including new bumper gussets, installed a Man-a-Fre rear swing out tire carrier with cooler carrier, hitch and Hi-Lift jack attachment, aftermarket mirrors, OEM fuel cap, OEM rear seat straps, OEM Toyota emblems, rear heater lines, and jack and jack rod clips (I realize they were not ’82 specific but work and look great nonetheless). Tires are 31x10.5x15 BFG A/T with excellent tread, although the spare is fairly worn.

The Cruiser starts and runs great. The only known issues with the Cruiser are that the hardtop does have some spots of rust and needs a new headliner. I have a brand new headliner ready to install that will go with the Cruiser. The white on the hardtop is not OEM Toyota and will need to be updated to match the wheels and bezel. There is also a leak in the front driver side knuckle and I also have the rebuild kit that will also go with the Cruiser. I just didn’t have time to install. There is also a small leak between the transmission and transfer case that is very common with the FJ40’s.

I also have a lot of extra parts that will be included with the sale: Aqualu tailgate for when the ambulance doors are removed, fuel door cover with retainer bracket, bikini top with sunroof with all hardware, additional OEM radiator, aftermarket chrome front bumper, extra Toyota brown jack (for all you purists out there), OEM spare tire carrier (gray), radio antenna, aftermarket cup holder, Toyota touch up paint, and a box of additional nuts and bolts.

All in all this FJ40 is in great shape and turns heads wherever it goes. I have additional photos that I can email upon request. It is a 30+ year old vehicle and is in used condition and is being sold AS IS. I am only asking what I have invested in the Cruiser and it is a no reserve auction. Don’t miss your chance to own the last of one of the greatest vehicles ever made. Please email any questions prior to bidding. The vehicle is located in Northwest Colorado but could be delivered to the SLC or Portland, OR for an additional shipping fee. Please confirm prior to bidding. Please take care of my baby!!

2016 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab revealed along with more details

Mon, Jan 12 2015

The Toyota Tacoma stepped behind the curtain for a makeover, and has emerged for 2016 with an appearance both chunky and menacing, plus lots of new tech and features. We've already seen its exterior, but some details we didn't get are that there will be a new locking tailgate that can lower itself slowly, without slamming, an available tri-fold hard tonneau, and four new wheel designs. Supporting that will be a stiffer frame with more high-strength steel and additional hot-stamped, ultra-high-strength steel in a lighter bodyshell. Engines will come in two flavors, either the carryover 2.7-liter four-cylinder or a brand new 3.5-liter Atkinson-cycle V6 that utilizes both direct and port fuel injection. The four-pot only can only be had with a six-speed automatic transmission - one extra gear than before - with electronic shifting, the sixer can be specified with that or a six-speed manual. We haven't been given numbers yet, but Toyota says the new truck is "more powerful and fuel efficient," meaning we expect a raise on the 236 horsepower of the current 4.0-liter V6. The dash is laid out with a driver-focused "handlebar" theme, finished with soft materials and metallic accents. Tech options include push-button start, Qi wireless charging, a Multi-Terrain Select system, and blind-spot detection with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, while luxury is attended to with a power moonroof and leather-trimmed seats. To aid the ambiance, engineers improved the seals, added an acoustic windshield, a sound-absorbing headliner and a floor silencer pad to make the cabin quieter. The suspension has also been retuned to deliver a smoother ride and provide more travel. One neat convenience touch: a GoPro mount next to the rear-view mirror. Five trims will be offered when it goes on sale: SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, and Limited. Before then, there's a press release below with more information, and we'll soon have live pictures from the Detroit Auto Show floor.

Toyota recalling 615k Sienna models over rollaway risk

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Toyota has announced a recall affecting approximately 615,000 Sienna minivans due to a possible rollaway risk. All of the vehicles in question are from the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 model years.
In an official statement, the automaker states that the problem stems from the vehicle's shift lever assembly. "Because of the potential for damage to the shift lock solenoid installed in involved vehicles, there is a possibility that the shift lever could be moved out of the 'P' position without the driver depressing the brake pedal," Toyota said. Because of this fault, the affected Sienna models could roll away without warning, increasing the risk for a crash.
Owners will be notified via first class mail, and the affected Sienna models can be taken to Toyota dealerships to have the shift lock solenoid replaced with a new one. Have a look below for the automaker's official release.

Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.
