This FJ40 is perfect for on road or off road use.  It is geared just perfect for off road and runs smooth on the highway. This is the perfect FJ40 that has never been abused and has been well cared for.  I take pride in this Landcruiser and it has never seen any serious rock crawling.  All U-joints and ball joints are in perfect condition.  The rig drives and brakes straight and is a pleasure to drive.

The red paint is not new, but it is a professional paint job that was done right. It looks like new paint because it is a super high quality.  There is NO RUST anywhere on this rig.  Notice in the pictures the custom body work where the gasoline fill caps are.  The rig has custom rock sliders and custom work to the front fenders as well.  All the parts are original Toyota FJ40.

I hate to sell this rig, but my father recently passed away and family comes first.  The FJ40 has always been garaged and I rarely drive it anymore.  It needs a good home with someone who will use it for what it is intended.

I am available on the weekends if anyone wants to come see the rig in person and drive it.  I live in the Sierra Foothills and have a local off road area we can take the rig so you can test it off road. Call 916-749-9350 to make appointment to see vehicle.

I am sure I am forgetting something about this rig.  IT has everything.  No cost was spared building this FJ40 to perfection.  Also comes with extra axles, driveshafts, wiper motors, and transfer case.

Buyer is responsible for picking up Hard top and hard doors.  If you do not want them, we can work something out.  But the hard top matches the rig. 

Buyer is responsible for shipping and transport of the vehicle after sale.  I will assist in arrranging to meet with transport service.  OR you can come here and drive it away!  I sold my brothers FJ40 to a guy in Colorado who flew to California and drove it home.  This vehicle does not come with a warranty and all sales are final. The vehicle has a clear California title and is currently registered and insured.  Buyer to send Paypal deposit of $700.00 within 48 hours of the close of auction.  I reserve to the right to cancel this auction at any time if the vehicle sells locally.  I am also willing to negotiate a sale outside of EBAY.  I will only accept full payment by cash in person or bank account transfer.

Good luck Bidding!

Toyota projecting record profits, thanks in part to weak yen

Fri, Feb 6 2015

Toyota retained its global sales crown in 2014 by selling 10.23 million cars in the calendar year. As the positive number might suggest, the Japanese automaker is doing extremely well financially, too. Although, some tougher times might be on the horizon. Toyota recently released its financial figures for the three fiscal quarters running from April 1 through the end of December 2014. Net profit jumped an impressive 13.2 percent to 1.727 trillion yen ($14.7 billion) for that period. It could be the Japanese automaker's most profitable time ever when the fiscal year ends in March, if things keep going this way, according to The New York Times. Toyota's own profit forecast for the 12-month period is also up by 130 billion yen ($1.1 billion) to 2.13 trillion yen ($18.1 billion). One key to the company's success is the low value of the Japanese yen, because it allows Toyota to make more money on each vehicle the company sells abroad. The currency is now worth relatively less than any time since the early '70s, according to The New York Times. Despite the rosy financial numbers, actual sales have started to fall, albeit a very slight amount. Through the three fiscal quarters, the company sold 6.73 million cars, a drop of just 45,365 vehicles. Toyota also reduced its forecast for the fiscal year to 9 million units, rather than the original estimate of 9.05 million. According to The New York Times, the shrinking Japanese auto market and difficulty in China might mean losing the global sales lead next year. For the US, sales jumped 145,411 units from April through December to a total 2.1 million vehicles. Operating income reached $4.27 billion, nearly 50 percent more than last year, according to The New York Times. Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) Announces April – December 2014 Financial Results February 04, 2015 Toyota's global net income jumped 13.2 percent during the nine-month period (April 1– December 31, 2014) of the 2015 fiscal year. Global Financial Highlights: Global sales decreased by 45,365 vehicles to 6.73 million, with strong sales in North America and gains in Europe, offsetting decreases in Japan and other regions.

Translogic 164: Driving the fuel cell vehicles of the 2014 LA Auto Show

Wed, Nov 26 2014

The LA Auto Show is known for its environmentally friendly vehicle debuts. At last year's show, hydrogen fuel cell concepts from Honda and Toyota joined a lease-ready Hyundai Tucson FCEV to cast a green hue over the convention center. This year, automakers took us a step closer to a fuel cell future by offering drives of their hydrogen-electric hybrids. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley takes a ride in the Toyota Mirai, which is headed for production in 2016. He follows that with a spin in the Volkswagen Passat HyMotion and the Audi A7 Sportback h-tron quattro concept. Which of these fuel cell vehicles holds the most promise? Tune in to find out.

How platform problems are delaying next-gen Prius

Tue, Jul 29 2014

Short-term pain for longer-term gain? That may be the prognosis for the next-generation Toyota Prius, the world's best-selling hybrid. But, hey, the new version might get holiday season debut, now. Toyota is upgrading some of its most popular models and trying to cut long-term costs with components that can be used on multiple models on the new Toyota New Global Architecture platform, Automotive News says. That means more parts that can be used for the Camry, Avalon (not big stretch, since the Avalon is basically a rich man's Camry) and Corolla in addition to the Prius. The downside, of course, is that this takes a bit more engineering and certainly more time. In the case of the Prius, that means pushing back the start of production from next summer to December 2015. But Automotive News also says the Prius may have an all-wheel-drive option. Happy Holidays. The report is in update from Automotive News Europe, which cited folks familiar with the process who were not identified and said late last month that the production of the fourth-gen Prius would be pushed back by about six months as engineers continue to tweak the hybrid powertrain for maximum efficiency. The goal is around a 10 percent improvement in fuel-efficiency thanks to an upgraded powertrain and lower vehicle weight. Toyota spokeswoman Amanda Rice told AutoblogGreen in an email that the company doesn't comment on future products, so we'll just have to keep an eye out.
