Selling a rare low mileage well maintained 1997 40th Anniversary Land Cruiser.  This is also a low number production (528).  I have owned many of these trucks and looked 4 plus years to find this one.  I found the truck in El Paso TX and bought it from the original owner.  The dealership in El Paso sold the car and serviced.  All of the manuals, remote keys, maintenance records and window sticker come with this truck.  The truck was totally repainted to factory specs in 2011.  Desert sun had taken its due on the paint.  This truck has zero rust.  Truck has never been wrecked with clean car fax but it also has all of the factory panel badges present.  I purchased this truck 2 years ago and had the selling dealership bring everything back to specs.  The engine was compression check before delivery and it was perfect.  This truck runs perfectly.  Windows, sun roof, mirrors, seats all work fine.  Local dealership in Myrtle Beach SC has done maintenance since 2012.   Why am I selling it….  Just need a truck.  This Land Cruiser looks outstanding inside and outside and run great.   

Replaced in the summer of 2012.

Upholstery replaced on front and back seats with Leather Touch – I did not add the chockalott brown, as I simply do like the combination.  All done in light tan…  Rear jump seats were fine and are in storage.

4 new Michelin tires

Brake rotors and pads

All fluids was replaced

Cooling system was flushed; all rubber hoses in the entire water system were replaced

New plugs, rotor and distributer cap

Valve cover gasket replaced

Head lights – low and high replaced with Silver Star bulbs and interior lights now are LEDs,

2014

Rotor smoothed and pads replaced

Air Filter replaced

 

The passenger tail light lens is broken with small dent as I backed into a pole.  Radio antenna motor needs to be replaced, back door passenger side power lock actuator needs to be replaced and if you want it perfect the cats should be replaced if you want the “check Engine” light off.  Dealership checked and all was fine-no effect on performance.

Toyota turning landfill gas into hybrid vehicles, indirectly

Fri, Mar 28 2014

Chamillionaire certainly wasn't referring to the Toyota Avalon or Camry when he rapped about "ridin' dirty" but maybe he'll change his tune soon. That's because some of the future energy sources for the Kentucky factory that makes those two models will come from gas created from the breakdown of solid waste. So the power behind some of the production at Toyota's largest North American factory will indeed be funky. Toyota is working with Waste Services of the Bluegrass to build a network of wells at a nearby landfill in order to collect the gases. Construction of the system starts next month and will be finished by early next year. The upshot is that the system will produce one megawatt of electricity per hour, which is the equivalent to the power used by 800 houses. Last spring, Toyota said it would start producing the Lexus ES at the Kentucky plant after getting almost a $150 million offer from the state. That's because that model is expected to add 50,000 vehicles to the existing production numbers at the plant. And those production numbers are already large, as Toyota makes both the standard and hybrid versions of both the Camry and Avalon there. Mind you, Toyota's not the first to go this route for factory-energy production. In 2011, General Motors' Orion Assembly Plant started getting about 40 percent of its energy for production of models such as the Chevy Sonic and Buick Verano from methane captured from a landfill nearby. The General estimated at the time that the process would cut the company's energy costs by about $1.1 million a year. Check out Toyota's press release about the Kentucky plant and its future landfill gas below. Landfill Gas to Build Cars and a Greener Community Partnership between Toyota and local landfill turns garbage into good March 24, 2014 GEORGETOWN, Ky. (MARCH, 24 2014) – Can a car company be a vehicle for change? Toyota thinks so. The Kentucky plant that manufactures some of the greenest cars on the road, including two hybrid models, will soon be powered in part by green electricity. Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc. has teamed up with Waste Services of the Bluegrass to generate power from local landfill waste, marking the region's first business to business landfill gas to energy initiative. Toyota estimates the locally-generated landfill gas will supply enough power each year for the production of 10,000 vehicles. How it Works As solid waste naturally breaks down in a landfill, it creates gas.

Manga stylized Toyota Aygo takes on Godzilla

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

Japan has given the world so much to enthuse over. We're not sure the Toyota Aygo is necessarily one of them as much as, say, the Scion FR-S or Lexus LFA (especially since it's actually made in Europe), but for many Nipponophiles, the centuries-old artistic discipline of Manga certainly is. And now the two have come together in this two-and-a-half-minute animated short.
In Toyota's own take on the classic narrative, an Aygo animated by celebrated artist Sonia Leong takes on Godzilla. As in, a giant lizard rampaging through a Japanese city, not the Nissan GT-R, against which the little Toyota would certainly stand even less of a chance by any metric other than affordability, fuel economy or ability to park in tight spots.
In any case, watch this Manga-fied video above, and feel free to read through the related press release below.
