1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Full Time 4WD 4X4 <br>
Clean Title, Pink In Hand <br>
Rare 40th Anniversary Edition <br>
*Sorry no diff locks on this one* <br><br>

Here's your chance to own an Iconic truck. This is the last year of this body style and they are very difficult to find in this good of condition. The body and interior are overall in very good condition, just a few minor dings/scratches here and there, see pics. Previous owner had this thing for 14 years and all owners have kept it in the garage since new, notice there's no paint fade like you usually see with these model Land Cruisers. <br><br>

This truck also has a fully boxed frame making it a very solid and safe vehicle. These things are built like tanks. Bullet proof engine and drive terrain, 1 ton axels front and rear (plenty strong enough to handle 35" tires. Famous straight six motor - this is one of the most reliable engines Toyota has EVER built. 300K+ miles is common place on these things. <br><br>

This truck even has the orignal tools, jack, socket set, etc. These are all very rare to find still with the truck, they usually end up in someones garage and never follow the truck. <br><br>

Cruiser has a lot of new items & approx. cost (I have most of the receipts):<br>
 - New BFG All Terrain Tires (top rated for snow)
- $1200 <br>
- New Alternator - approx. $200 <br>
- New hoses including the large expensive one
that connects to the air filter - $300 <br>
- Just had the oil change, new oil filter, etc. I
will smog for buyer <br>
- New battery - $120 <br>
- In total I've probably put in over $2000 into
the truck in the last year and a half<br><br>

Fully Loaded! Features Include:<br>
 - Power everything: steering, windows, seats,
door locks <br>
- Sun roof! <br>
- Tinted windows<br>
- Hitch set up <br>
- Alloy wheels, with all of the center caps
(those usually tend to go missing) <br>
- Leather Interior, great condition for its age.

No rips! <br>
- Two tone leather that only came with the 40th
Anniversary Edition <br>
- Three row seating, 7 passenger <br>
- Removable third row for extra storage <br>
- Roof rack (stock) <br>
- CD Changer & AM/FM Radio<br>
 - Automatic transmission <br>
- Full Sized Spare<br>
- Straight axle front end <br><br>

There's only a few minor problems:<br>
 - Slight oil leak/consumption. I only have to
add a quart a couple of times between oil changes, every 1500 miles or so. <br>
- Power antenna button doesn't work. My mechanic
told me it should be an easy fix, but it's not that big of a deal to me. All other power itmes work! <br>
- Sometimes has a squeek in the steering collumn
when turning (usually when its cold), I looked it up on forums, just needs to have some grease put on underneath the steering wheel somewhere. <br>
- Driver side visor hangs a little low, doesn't
bother me, but if your over 6' tall it might. <br>
- Sometimes the rear passenger side door light
comes on as if the door is open when its not.<br>
- That's about all I can think of, really is in
great running/mechanical condition. <br><br>

This truck will make a great daily driver, family car, weekend warrior, camping truck, ski/snow board rig, fishing & hunting truck, build your rock crawler, etc. Your wish is it's command! You will love this Land Cruiser. SOLID SOLID TRUCK. Sorry I don't have very good pics, I will update later when I can.

 

I prefer to deal locally, but may consider other methods of sale. I will only sell within the US.

2014 Toyota Corolla gets marginal IIHS small overlap crash test score [w/video]

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

Toyota may have performed some major surgery on the 2014 Corolla, but that hasn't helped the Japanese automaker overcome tough new crash test procedures. The Corolla, Toyota's bread-and-butter compact sedan, managed only a Marginal score on the new small overlap crash test, which was just added last year.
Despite the low score, the Corolla performed well in the moderate overlap front, side, rollover and rear testing, which was enough to score it a 2013 Top Safety Pick. In testing in August, six of the Corolla's competitors earned the Top Safety Pick + award, for good or acceptable scores across the board.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Corolla's "Marginal" score was down to an "intruding structure," that could cause injuries to the lower left leg. There was also concern that in a collision, the driver's head would move after hitting the air bag, and collide with the A-pillar or dash.

Toyota sees Camry share loss despite predicting increasing sales

Tue, 02 Apr 2013

Toyota may be set to lose share the midsize sedan market. While speaking with Automotive News, Toyota North America CEO Jim Lentz said that if his company kept pace with the current swell in the market for family four doors, Toyota would need to sell around 500,000 Camry models. "I'm not sure we can do much more than 400 [thousand] today," Lentz said.
But that doesn't mean Camry sales are shrinking - on the contrary, Lentz thinks Toyota will likely sell more Camry units in 2013 than it did in 2012, it's just that the company isn't keeping pace with segment's current explosion in popularity. Industry wide, midsized sedan sales have increased by 20 percent. "Are we going to lose [Camry] share? Probably so," Lentz said, "but we will continue to grow in raw volume."
Toyota sold 404,886 Camry units last year, and the company just revised its 2013 sales objective from 2.18 million units earlier this year to 2.2-million plus units, so while things are looking up for the brand and Camry sales may be on the rise, Toyota may not have the muscle to keep up its share in the sedan segment. Whether that's because of a production bottleneck or a predicted sales ceiling isn't clear. We've got a call in and will update this news item if/when we learn more.

Fuel cells will flop outside Japan, says VW

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



"It may fly within Japan, but not globally," VW's Shoji said.
It's long been battered into our beleaguered auto writer brains that the ultimate future source of motivation for tomorrow's cars and trucks is not gasoline, diesel, electricity, natural gas, propane or solar power - it's the hydrogen fuel cell. It's been the Next Big Thing since the start of Next Big Things.
