You are bidding on a 1978 Toyota FJ40 Landcruiser that has had some restoration done to it.  The previous owner kept the vehicle garaged in Midlothian, VA and was only used as a fun weekend vehicle.  The paint job speaks for itself in the pictures.  No rust.  There is some fading on the roof and some very small, minor chips/scratches but overall it is in great condition.  The previous owner also made the conversion to a Chevy 350 V8 engine, 4 speed transmission.  Starts and runs with no problems.  Additional features:  Mud King XT 32 x 11.5R x 15 LTM+S Tires, full custom roll bars, seats are original leather and are in excellent condition,  Hella Fog Lamps (wiring still needs to be completed), upgraded metal brake lines, full Rhino undercoating, new muffler, tailpipe, battery, and car cover.  The rear quarter panel of glass was fixed with Lexan DIY but should be an easy replacement for less than $50.  Fuel gauge is stuck (unsure if it's the gauge or transmitter).  Air conditioning does not work.  Heater does.  Radio works but an antenna needs to be installed.  The front tires rub against the roll cage if you take a turn to tight or fast.  It could use a 1-2" lift.  Folding ambulance style seats in the rear.  This vehicle is in good running condition and needs just a little more love to get it fully restored.  Most of the restoration items are minor things.  The only reason I am selling is because I am in the Navy and stationed in Hawaii.  The vehicle is in Virginia with my parents.  I haven't had much opportunity to drive it or spend restoring it.  I had to buy another vehicle here in Hawaii recently when my daily driver died.  I'd love to keep it but I just don't have the time to put into it right now and want to find a good home with someone who does have the time and money.   The vehicle needs to be seen to be appreciated.  It's a head turner and I got stopped whenever I made a run to the store or at a stoplight with people complimenting or asking about it.

Toyota releases teaser for Kaley Cuoco Super Bowl ad

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Toyota has released a 35-second teaser video for its upcoming Super Bowl spot staring Kaley Cuoco, the actress best known for her role as object-of-nerd-affection Penny on The Big Bang Theory. The real star of the ad, however, is its soundtrack, the 1995 hit "I Wish" by rapper Skee-Lo that will have your mind cashing nostalgia checks the moment it hits your ears.
We still don't know much about the content, plot or story of this Super Bowl commercial, though we can say that its object of promotion is likely the new RAV4 we see Ms. Cuoco driving in this teaser. The rest of the time she's walking the street in a purple getup granting wishes like Robin Williams on a Disney sound stage. And then the Easter Bunny and a chihuahua enter the picture and we get lost. Clint Eastwood under a bridge this is not.
But hey, Super Bowl ads cost millions and millions of dollars to produce and air, so we trust that Toyota spent its money wisely and will have us ROFLing on game day. Until then, scroll down and witness for yourself the debut of Kaley Cuoco as a Toyota spokeswoman.

Experience the New York Auto Show by drone

Fri, Apr 10 2015

The Autoblog team recently returned from wildly running around the Javits Center to cover all the news and debuts at the New York Auto Show. Sometimes, it's nice to take a more serene look at the exhibition floor, though, and the event's organizers are providing that exact opportunity by flying a drone through the hall. Combined with the down-tempo music, this clip feels like a form of automotive meditation. If you're going to miss the show in the Big Apple, the drone also provides a good overview at the exhibition floor, especially at the stands from Lexus, Buick, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and BMW. Plus, it's a fun way to see some vehicles from a completely different angle than they ever appear on the road.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
