"Best Used Vehicle on the Market" Yahoo Automotive
The Toyota Land Cruiser 100 series (98-2007) was just named the top rated vehicle used car/truck available by Yahoo Autos. In addition the 100 series Land Cruiser is the number one vehicle for overland expeditions. See links below: Yahoo 10 best used vehicles Top10 used expedition vehicles You can't get a more capable rig. I personally drove this vehicle from Paris, France to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and am 100% confident in its abilities. These rigs are hard to find, especially in this type of condition. This Land Cruiser preformed flawlessly for over 11,000 miles of driving and now it's back in the states ready for a new owner. We've spend over $1,000 and countless hours getting it ready to sell. We're selling it because the charity doesn't have another expedition planed and we really can't justify a Land Cruiser as a "company" car. Background: We purchased the rig last March for $14,000 and put an additional $3,500 into it getting ready for the expedition. We added a 2" Old Man Emu suspension lift and an ARB roof rack. We also went through the engine and drive-train, and other systems with a fine tooth comb to make sure they were in excellent shape. The LC drives very well and is quiet. The video below shows the Cruiser in action: Drive4Sight Mongol Rally: Drive4Sight Video You'll notice the only issues are cosmetic with a few bumps along the back gate -- one of our drivers backed into some shrubs/trees during a sand storm -- but that driver will remain nameless :). There is a 2" tear in the leather in the 2nd row seat when someone had to get to the last cold drink from the fridge and didn't realize the lid was up tight against the leather. Also there is some carpet staining on the rear lift door but other than that the rig is ready for another jaunt around the world. We've left the window decals in place because people really seem to like them. But they can be removed easily if desired. Please call or text with any questions. Also, the tires in the picture are not included. The tires will be 4 90% new Big O AT (16") tires. If you want the 4 Toyo M/T tires as seen int the picture please add 1k to the price. Lastly, I reserve the right to terminate this listing for any reason and at any time. |

Toyota, Lexus expanding Takata airbag recall, re-notifying customers
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Toyota is re-notifying owners and expanding its Takata airbag inflator recall for some regions. The renewed campaign covers 247,000 examples of the Toyota Corolla, Matrix, Sequoia, Tundra and Lexus SC430 that are located in southern Florida, along the Gulf Coast, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, the US Virgin Islands, Guam, Saipan and American Samoa. All of the models come from the 2001-2004 model years and have potentially faulty Takata-made inflators on the front passenger side. According to the company, testing shows the problem warrants "immediate action," and its press release says, "this action intensifies Toyota's efforts to reach customers and remedy previously recalled vehicles, and a small number of newly included vehicles."
According to Toyota, it submitted some recalled inflators to Takata for testing, and it found a high probability of rupturing in high humidity areas. The automaker said it had no reports yet of injuries or fatalities related to the problem.
This is Toyota's third inflator recall this year. In June, it called in for repair the same vehicles from the 2003-2005 model years in high-humidity areas, and it conducted a separate campaign nationwide for the parts in additional models. In April 2013, it also announced a fix campaign for 1.73-million vehicles worldwide for the same issue.
Toyota develops new pre-collision system with steering assist
Sun, 13 Oct 2013A number of automakers are working on developing fully autonomous cars, but it looks like the groundwork for such technologies will likely show up first as semi-autonomous systems for both safety and convenience. Following recent announcements from Nissan and Ford in this area, Toyota has now released information for some of its advanced semi-autonomous technologies that could be offered in production cars over the next few years.
On the safety front, Toyota's new pre-collision system with pedestrian-avoidance steering assist is aimed at protecting the folks who aren't in the car. This system combines visual and audible alerts with automatic brake assist and automatic steering. If warnings don't get the driver to slow down, the brake assist kicks in if a collision is very likely, but if that is still not able to avoid the impending collision (and if there is enough room to do so), the car can automatically steer itself around the pedestrian. This sounds most beneficial for last-second dangers such as a person accidently stepping out into the road in front of a car. Toyota hopes to have this technology available to customers by 2015.
The Japanese automaker is also testing a suite of technologies called Automated Highway Driving Assist (AHDA). The key part of this is a new adaptive cruise control system that uses vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications rather than a radar-based system. This cooperative-adaptive cruise control allows vehicles to communicate their acceleration and deceleration data with other cars, which Toyota says this helps to improve fuel efficiency and traffic flow. Also a part of AHDA is the Lane Trace Control feature, which sounds like a next-gen lane keep assist. This system uses cameras, radar and a computer to keep the vehicle in a "smooth driving line" by being able to change steering angle, engine torque and braking force. Toyota says this technology could be in place by the "mid-2010s."
Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007
Sat, 21 Sep 2013Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
