Hello Everyone. FIRST OF ALL THE VIN NUMBER FOR THIS CRUISER IS: BJ41013098. The engine is the Stock 2B Factory engine that was sold with this Land Cruiser in 1981. No adjustments or alterations have been made. This Diesel Cruiser is 100% bone stock from the Factory. The Cruiser is properly Registered and Titled in the State of California. Title is Clear. I have all Receipts of work that I have done to this beautiful BJ41. I am selling my 1981 BJ41 Diesel Toyota Land Cruiser. Just to let you know the COLOR CODE 202 / TOYOTA BLACK is 100% FACTORY for this cruiser and Extremely Rare. The Color Code is posted on the VIN PLATE on the firewall. Toyota never exported Black Land Cruisers. The BJ41 Diesel as you know was only sold in Japan, for the Japan market, and within that market Toyota only produced a handful of Factory Black Cruisers. This one is beautiful. I own another one as well ( Red ) and can tell you that ALL PARTS are available at any time from SPECTER OFF ROAD in Chatsworth, California. www.sor.com . You never have to worry about parts and please note that body, chassis, interior on this cruiser are exactly like the domestic LC's anyway so no worries there either. Just to be clear though,,,,,,,,,PARTS FOR TRANY, TRANSFER, BRAKES, ENGINE, RADIATOR, ALL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE WHEN NEEDED FROM WWW.SOR.COM in Chatsworth, California. The fact that this cruiser gets over 25 miles per gallon makes it a logical daily driver if that is what your looking for. Weekends also for extended mountain trips for camping since fuel mileage is so good. My other BJ is my daily driver. It is nice to be able to actually drive my other cruiser all the time without going broke. Gassers are great but the 2B DIESEL in this cruiser gets wonderful fuel mileage, is extremely rugged, go anywhere and will easily last 500k miles if you take care of it. The engine runs PERFECT. No issues at all with this cruiser. I have just replaced ALL FLUIDS ie: Brake, Radiator, Both front and rear Differentials, Oil, Oil Filter, Trany and Transfer Case Oil,,,,,,,,,All new fluids only have 20 miles on them. The cruiser also just had a Valve Adjustment, New Valve Cover Gasket, New Rear Brakes, New Master Cylinder, New SPECTER OFF ROAD CUSTOM SLIP COVERS, Brand New BFG All Terrain T/A 32 x 11.50 x 15 tires x 5 under Full Warranty, Newly Restored Stock Land Cruiser Steel Wheels ( just Powder Coated less then 20 miles ago ), Brand New Factory Hub Caps, New Headliner from Specter Off Road, New bulbs, Replaced Front Bumper, Recharged Air Conditioner Blows very cold, New Fuel Pump, New Paint touch up, Original Factory Seats were kept since they are so dang rare but covered with New Factory Fitted Gray Seat Slip Covers from Specter Off Road, New Shift Knob, New Brake Master Cylinder and A Brand New Interstate Battery also under full warranty. Please email if you have any questions. I have owned 22 Land Cruisers since 1974. I love my Cruisers and as a collector only buy the best cruisers as I look closely at them before I make a purchase. In my opinion you will be getting not only one the rarest Land Cruisers in the country due to its color code 202 but a Diesel Cruiser that will take you anywhere, anytime and in any terrain. I would drive this cruiser to Alaska and not worry about its performance. The cruiser has No Rust, Engine Runs Perfect and has been maintained by a qualified Diesel Land Cruiser Mechanic since I have owned it. The Transmission ( 4 speed ) and Transfer Case 4 x 4 are both in excellent running condition. The Cruiser does NOT Smoke, starts right up and idles perfectly. The brakes were just changed in the rear and a new Master Cylinder just put in. The Cruiser stops straight and is good to go anywhere. The undercarriage is in wonderful shape also. Solid, straight. Good AC, Good Heater, All systems work. I think I have set the Ebay Reserve fairly based on the condition of the cruiser since I have " Semi-Restored / Refreshed " it. All work has just been done. Less then 20 miles on all the work done. I am NOT giving this diesel away but am hoping to find it a good home, someone that will take good care of it and enjoy driving it both on the backroads and highways. It does NOT go fast so if your looking for speed do not buy this cruiser. It is very happy at around 65 to 70 miles per hour but that is about it. As far as backcountry, Off Road torque? Well, there is nothing better out there. These diesels Toyota Land Cruisers are simply the best in my opinion. They are tough and go forever. I know since I drive my other one full time. Any questions please let me know and I will post them for everyone to see. I will NOT post your email address or name, just your question. Thanks and good luck bidding. I have the name of a few good shipping companies that I have used if anyone needs them. From California where I am to East Coast is about $1000 for outside travel and about $1500 for inside travel transport. I will also post any new info if I think of anything. Please Note: MORE PICTURES ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. I HAVE DETAILED PICS OF THE WHOLE CRUISER. Anyone who wants to check out the cruiser MUST send a qualified licensed Mobile Tech to my location. I am not able to take the cruiser anywhere. Right now it is covered and NOT being used. THANKS. GLOBALVU3NN3.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

Toyota, Subaru developing RAV4-sized electric crossover and platform for more EVs

Thu, Jun 6 2019

TOKYO — Toyota and Subaru announced they will jointly develop a battery-electric crossover on a platform developed for multiple production vehicles. The first crossover built on the platform will be a C-segment vehicle, which will be a small vehicle similar in size to a Toyota RAV4 or Subaru Forester. It will also be sold by both brands with altered styling and badging. The small crossover will only be the first vehicle to use the platform, though, as it's being developed for use in medium-small C-segment sedans and both D-segment larger sedans and crossovers. So we could see electric cars similar to the Corolla and Impreza, Camry and Legacy, and even the Highlander and Ascent on this platform in the future. Not surprisingly, this first electric crossover will have all-wheel drive, and the companies said that Subaru would provide all-wheel drive expertise with Toyota adding its electric powertrain knowledge. It's a safe bet that all of the future Subarus on the platform will have all-wheel drive, but it will be interesting to see if Toyota offers two-wheel- and all-wheel-drive iterations of its vehicles. The move to share technology underlines the conundrum facing Toyota and other global automakers, which are competing to develop new vehicle technologies including all-battery electric cars and self-driving cars, which require massive investment. "Subaru and Toyota believe that it is necessary to pursue a business model that goes beyond convention, crossing over industrial boundaries," the automakers said. Toyota is looking to partnerships with rival automakers and tech firms to reduce its capital outlay for developing these new technologies. In April, it announced it would supply other automakers with its hybrid technology, an area it has led since it pioneered the Prius in 1997. It also recently released the 2020 Toyota Supra, which shares a majority of its powertrain and chassis, among other things, with the 2020 BMW Z4. Toyota also provided hybrid development assistance to Subaru on the Crosstrek plug-in hybrid. Subaru, although experiencing massive, continual sales success, particularly in crossover and all-wheel-drive obsessed America, is still a small car company in the grand scheme of things. As such it's struggling to independently invest in and develop lower-emission vehicles and on-demand transportation services widely seen as necessary to survive technological upheaval in the global auto industry.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
