HI,

Selling my beloved 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser - Gold Package with roof rack, brand new towing package & all the options possible for this Land Cruiser. It is the Gold Package most easily identified by the Gold trim hood emblem and rear gold lettering.
I am 2nd owner, bought in November, 2004 from Vasser Chevrolet in Napa, CA.
Meticulously well maintained by my good friend Randy, chief mechanic at Toyota Vallejo.
I bought truck with about 78k miles on it and over time she now has 282k miles. The truck received complete reconditioning in spring of 2011 with more then 12k in parts and labor to truck, sparing no expense and had truck running better then when I first purchased it in 2004!
The Land Cruiser is the best SUV, period. Safe, splendid on long drives, I cannot say enough about Land Cruisers.
The truck will always take care of its owner providing basic maintenance is done. Currently, this truck needs a new right front axle assembly.This was the last bit of under carriage stuff to do as shocks, struts etc are all new from 2011.
New owner will also want to install a new battery down the road. There are no dents, there is some slight peeling of the clear coat finish on hood, although hardly any.
The truck has never been driven off road or towed anything but is built very well for these things.
My driving consisted of commuting to and from work 4 times a week and once a week drive with my daughter to take her to dinner. The Land cruiser is very safe and my family very precious to me. Addtionally, the Bay Area commute down I-80 is gentle on vehicles, some of the people out there driving today are reckless and the Land cruiser greatly reduced my apprehensions. It is a big, solid and heavy truck but drives like a BMW 6 series I used to own long years ago!
She has been driven to and from San Diego to visit family and this is where the Land Cruiser really shines. She does better on gas mileage on highway then the dealership said. Moreover, she is really meant to cruise the land and would fly in and out of the grapevine with ease. The power of this truck is amazing and it handles exceptionally well. It is a luxury truck, but then really good at what trucks are supposed to do.
I am selling my Land Cruiser for only one reason due to chronic health problems that became life threatening and have suffered the financial troubles that go with serious illness. I have to get thru this bump in the road.
My very tragic loss can be someone else's gain. I know a great deal about these trucks, alot more than car dealers and my friend at Toyota taught me so much about the Land Cruiser.
The Toyota Land Cruiser body type changed in 1998 and remained the same thru 2007. Toyota introduced a tft type GPS travel thing in the dash as option in 2001, made it standard in 2002. This is the exact same body used during same years for the Lexus 450, except that truck had some a softer transmission and some cosmetics to appeal to the luxury folks. Several Toyota folks told me in confidence though that the best Truck overall was the actual Landcrusier.
Anyhow, new owner would need to register and smog truck which I am certain she will pass.

New owner needs to install the right front axle assembly which top of line brand new factory part is less then 100$. Completion of this repair means truck can be driven anywhere, any season, tires are all weather and are 4 new Coopers, plus new Cooper spare.
Oh! Land Cruiser is Black with a light tan interior, has 3rd row seats which are carefully stored in my garage and has custom cargo floor liner as well as up front and rear seating floor liners. Has sun-roof as well.
Truck has heated seats, power windows, super cold air conditioning, rear air conditioning & heating, all the options, nothing spared.
Look up a Kelley blue book 1999 Toyota LC & toss in "very good" as condition with all options & you will know what you are getting.
This Land Cruiser is destined for a million more miles on current engine and transmission and also has 4 new tires, and I am not joking about the million miles!
Truck is in Fairfield, CA.

This is sold cash only OR certified cashier's check. As is, no warranty expressed or implied. No PayPal. I will provide incentive discount for buyer who knows the value of this truck offer and will need to tow it to your mechanic to complete right front axle assembly installation. Local pick-up only. Please feel free to have your mechanic, any local mechanic come by and give it a thorough go thru.

This is a really great truck I paid 25k, another 22k in financing :(, & I put another 20k into necessary maintenance, essentially over maintaining it.

Toyota delves into the history of its Land Cruiser

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

One of the longest-produced, most widely distributed vehicles in all of automotive history is also one of its most rugged: the Toyota Land Cruiser. With 60 years of continuous production, 14 different model lines and thousands of variations of the Jeep-like sports utility vehicle, the Land Cruiser became a success worldwide and developed a cult following among enthusiasts here in the US.
We'll be the first to admit that tracing the vehicle's lineage from its humble beginnings as a prototype for Japan's National Police Reserve in 1951 to what it is today isn't an easy task, especially when one considers that the types of Land Cruisers produced traditionally have varied from market to market. For example, the Land Cruiser sold in the US is very different from the US-only 40 series Land Cruiser-inspired FJ Cruiser, which is itself different from the Land Cruiser Prado sold in other world markets.
To cover the Land Cruiser's sixty-plus year history from start to present, someone over at Toyota UK was thoughtful enough to devote a plus-size blog post to it. It's worth a read if you have a spare 10 or 15 minutes - and even if you don't, you can check out our historical gallery above. Enjoy!

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV Rally Car To Compete, Barra bullish on Chevy Volt

Fri, Oct 31 2014

The Toyota FCV will compete in the last stage of the 2014 Japanese Rally Championship. The sport-tuned hydrogen-powered car will tackle the 177-mile Shinshiro Rally on November 1 and 2, emitting no greenhouse gases in the process. The rally course will help prove the safety of the vehicle before it goes on sale in Japan in the next several months. The Toyota FCV, rumored to be called "Mirai" in Japan, will begin sales there before April, according to Toyota, and in the summer in the US and Europe. Read more in the press release below. Carsharing is becoming more popular, and more visible, throughout the world, including the US. According to WardsAuto columnist John McElroy, 18 percent of US drivers have used some sort of carsharing service. Additionally, he says 60 percent of Americans are familiar with Zipcar and Uber. Mercedes' Harald Kroeger says promotions like free parking for carshares in Stuttgart are encouraging growth for Daimler's carsharing service, Car2go. Read more at WardsAuto. Ethanol is being help up by rail transport, according to ethanol producer Green Plains. More and more stations are carrying E15 blend gasoline, but grain producers have complained that crude oil is given higher priority by the rail lines shipping it, which rail companies deny. Union Pacific and BNSF Railway say they are stepping up service to make sure that ethanol can be shipped reliably to customers. Read more at Omaha World-Herald. General Motors "has placed a significant bet [on] the electrification of the automobile," says CEO Mary Barra. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club this week, she spoke about the Chevrolet Volt, and its importance to GM's future. While Barra admits the Volt's success has been "not everything we wanted," it has provided experience, and shows that EVs have "an important role in the future of GM." The new Volt is more refined, stores more energy, has longer range, uses less fuel and is a big investment for Michigan. She announced that the new Volt's electric drive system will be built in Warren, and that all of its major components will be made in Michigan. "Silicon Valley doesn't have a corner on the market for innovation, creativity and drive," says Barra. "These qualities exist here – in this region – as well."

2014 Toyota Aygo marks the spot [w/video]

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

Following the leaked pictures we showed you yesterday, we have the full battery of images and info of the all-new Toyota Aygo, in addition to our gallery of live photos from the floor of the Geneva Motor Show.
Like its cousins from Peugeot and Citroën, the Aygo foregoes a diesel engine in favor of a highly efficient gas powerplant. The 1.0-liter naturally aspirated 4-cylinder turns out 68 horsepower and 70 pound-feet of torque. When it hits the market, it'll be with either a five-speed manual transmission or a five-speed, X-Shift automated manual. The former will help the Aygo return 57.3 miles per gallon and hit 62 miles per hour in 14.2 seconds. Opting for the X-Shift variant will net drivers 56 mpg, with 62 arriving in a leisurely 15.5 seconds.
We'll admit, aside from the fuel efficiency, there's nothing terribly great about those numbers. Still, with its compact dimensions - it's only 136 inches long - and a curb weight of no more than 2,000 pounds, it should prove tossable in the bends.
