Non smoker, no pets it has no oders inside. Only reason for selling is I need the money for a new roof on my house.  I am a ASE Master auto mechanic and have taken very well care of this with all services and maintenance done before or on there service intervals. oil changed every 3000 miles with mobil 1 oil and dealer oil filter, ALL fluids in entire vehicle changed every 30k. spark plugs changed at 30k and 60k. five new tires last year, 285/70-/17 brigestone dueler revo.  brakes new last year with hevy duty pads and rotors.  shocks replaced 2 years ago with bilstien 5100 series, at that time I put OLD MAN EMU 2.5 inch front lift coils and 1 inch lift in rear. It sits nice and leval and rides better than factory ride. This rides perfect no shakes, pulls, or rough ride. alighnment was performed and perfect. I am very picky and I assure you this FJ rides great and is in tip top order, being a mechanic I don't settle for anything less than perfect on my cars.has power window, power lock, cruise, auto trans,6 disc cd, locking rear diff, A-Track, backup sensors, 115volt rear plug.

Truck is florida truck and shows like new, has absolutely no rust. It has never been offroad use or in mud, or rock climbed like most of them on ebay will be. it was street driven only, look at pictures undercarriage still looks like new.   paint and body are in excellent condition, no fading of the paint, no sun damage, I always used sunshade when parked. body has NO dents or dings, paint has NO scratches other than a few light scuffs that are only on surface of paint and would probably buff off. only one touch up to paint on passenger rear door the size of a small pee. It was professionaly touched up with color coat and clear coat then wet sanded and buffed so it is smooth to the touch, Hardly noticeable. a few light scuffs to the plastic in the cargo area and a few light scratches to the black plastic on the bumpers, non in the paint. THEY ALL HAVE THIS on used FJ, I work at a dealer and see a lot of these. Overall it looks very well for a 2007, pretty much like new but I wanted to point everything out. The FJ has been in NO Accidents,  But apparently it shows a accident on the report that I wasn't even aware off until now.  Let me explain. I was sitting at a red light one day and a girl on a MOPED bumped into the back of me and hit the left rear tire and the silver bumper end. the girl fell over on the MOPED and got hurt so the police came out and did a report.  I had no Idea this was going to show up now as accident reported. THE FJ HAD NO DAMAGE, other than a scrape in the plastic on the left silver part of the bumper, the scrape annoyed me so I replaced the silver end cap on the bumper. I assure you everything stated is the truth, I have sold many cars and things on ebay, look at my 100% feedback. I already was offered $17,500 for trade in at CarMax, but I don't want to sell it for trade IN value because it is very clean and needs Nothing. Kelly blue book private party value is over $19,000.  I have about 50 pictures if interested I can send to email, probably will not have all pictures on ebay listing. any question ask. I have a clean and clear title in hand. Do not bid if you do not have the money or loan pre approval.  FJ can be seen or inspected at my location anytime.  FJ is also listed on craigslist so first money in my hand gets it, will be removed from ebay if sold locally.

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.

Japan may aid carmakers facing U.S. tariff threat

Wed, Sep 12 2018

TOKYO — Japan is considering giving carmakers fiscal support including tax breaks to offset the impact from trade frictions with the United States and a sales-tax hike planned for next year, government sources told Reuters on Wednesday. Going into a second round of trade talks with the United States on Sept. 21, Japan is hoping to avert steep tariffs on its car exports and fend off U.S. demands for a bilateral free trade agreement that could put it under pressure to open politically sensitive markets, like agriculture. "If the trade talks pile pressure on Japan's car exports, we would need to consider measures to support the auto industry," a ruling party official said on condition of anonymity because of sensitivity of the matter. The auto industry accounts for about 20 percent of Japan's overall output and around 60-70 percent of the country's trade surplus with the United States, making it vulnerable to U.S. action against Japanese exports. Japan's biggest automakers and components suppliers fear they could take a significant hit if Washington follows through on proposals to hike tariffs on autos and auto parts to 25 percent. Policymakers also worry that an increase in the sales tax from 8 percent to 10 percent planned for October 2019, could cause a slump in sales of big-ticket items such as cars and home. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has twice postponed the tax hike after the last increase from 5 percent in 2014 dealt a blow to private consumption, which accounts for about 60 percent of the economy. To prevent a pullback in demand after the tax hike, the government may consider large fiscal spending later when it draws up its budget for next year, government sources said. "One option may be to greatly reduce or abolish the automobile purchase tax," one of the government sources said. The government is also considering cuts in the automobile tax and automobile weight tax to help car buyers, the source added.

Impala crashes into Land Cruiser... to hide from a cheetah

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

What would you do if a wild animal jumped into your vehicle through an open window during an African safari? What if said animal was an impala being chased by cheetahs? Though the scenario seems unbelievable, that's just what happened to a group of tourists in Kruger National Park in South Africa, and it was all caught on video.
With the tour groups stopped, a motorist with a video camera handy happens to catch the unlikely sight of a herd of impalas (not that kind of Impala) jumping over the tarmac while being followed, quickly of course, by two cheetahs. The feline predators thought they had cornered one impala and were closing in for the kill when it jumped through the open window of a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado - South Africa's version of the Lexus GX. Fortunately for the occupants of said vehicle, the cheetahs did not follow.
A short while later, one of the occupants in the Toyota fearlessly opens a door to let the poor animal out. It must have been its lucky day, because the cheetahs didn't take pursuit. Check out the circle life get interrupted by this traffic jam in the video below.
