2008 FJ Cruiser.   One owner, garage kept, 14,9XX ORIGINAL miles!

I wanted one of these things ever since the first day I heard they were being made---then on one snowy January day in 2009, my dream came true.  It was (and is) everything I had hoped for.  It has rugged, get-out-of-my-way looks, a peppy engine (considering the vehicle weight) and an aggressive exhaust note.   It has all the earmarks of a post-apocalyptic urban assault vehicle, but with a comfortable and reassuring ride and the peace of mind that comes from owning a Toyota.  Reliable doesn't even start to describe it.

I have compounded the aggressive utility of this modern day road beast by adding a genuine ARB Bull Bumper---engineered in Australia to withstand plowing into full-grown kangaroos at highway speed.   I have also added a BRAND NEW set of N-Fab nerf bar steps, Hella driving lights on the bumper, and Hella 500 Offroaders on the TRD roof rack air dam (The roof lights are not hooked up--just installed).   It's also go some very high end Bilstien shocks.  Now it looks like a cross between an armored car, and something from a Stephen King novel.

The front bezel has had the blackout treatment as well.    Don't be scared though, she purrs like a kitten and handles like a dream.

My problem is, my family is outgrowing it.   I have two kids and one on the way and we are starting to look at (God help me) minivans.  Excuse me for a second…I think I have something in my eye.  Sniff.

Needless to say, this vehicle has spent every night of its life safely inside my garage.  I am the first and only owner and I have managed to put less than 15,000 miles on it since I bought it (almost 5 years ago).   The truck has NEVER been off road and it has NEVER been smoked in --or around.   It has been babied far much more than of vehicle of its legendary off road prowess should be.  But that's me.   If you aspire to crawl rocks at Moab, or pull your buddies' Jeeps and Hummers out of the mud while laughing heartily, THIS is the vehicle for you.

It's loaded.   Plus it has the TRD Offroad package which includes 16" Aluminum rims, offroad tires (5) and Bilstien shocks.   I had the front two shocks changed to Bilstein adjustables to level up the front under the weight of the ARB Bumper.   Now she sits just perfect!

It's also got:

passenger arm rest
spare tire cover
ipod connection
factory roof rack
3-piece removable cargo shelf
back up alarm
Monster Rubber all-season mats
TRD Factory Carpet Mats
Carpet cargo cover
Cargo net
Original Brochure
Water/weather proof interior


If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.
I am asking $25,500OBO

Thanks for looking!

Toyota's $1.6B unintended acceleration settlement approved

Sat, 20 Jul 2013

Toyota is now one step closer to putting its unintended acceleration woes behind it as it has received approval from the US District Court for the Central District of California to settle loss-of-value claims to vehicles associated with the 2009-2010 recalls.
As we reported back in May, the Toyota settlement is worth $1.63 billion, which, according to Bloomberg, includes a payout of $757 million to affected owners, $227 million to attorneys and an additional $875 million for vehicle upgrades. (We did the math, too, and that totals $1.859 billion, but there is no justification for the discrepancy. Fuzzy math, eh?)
Based on the estimated 22.6 million vehicles said to be included in this suit, that would make the average payment about $33.49 per vehicle, but the article says that owners, lessees and even renters will receive varying amounts ranging from $9.74 up to as much as $10,000. This settlement does not affect suits filed for personal injury or wrongful death.

Toyota celebrates 30 years of 4Runner with... incentives?

Mon, 24 Feb 2014

Many Americans view their 30th birthdays as significant milestones, even though the average life expectancy here is more than 2.5 times that age. So you might think Toyota would be keen to party over the 30th anniversary of its 4Runner, since most models don't even live to half that age. You can put that idea away unless you consider discounts of $500 to $1,000 something worthy of cake and kazoos, since it appears that's all the birthday SUV will get. That's right, not even a trim-and-tape special edition or so much as a sticker. We asked Toyota for comment and were told they had "No other 30th anniversary 4Runner items to announce at the time."
So, about those incentives: they climb from $500 on the SR5 and Trail editions to $750 on Premium models and $1,000 on the Limited trims. Toyota says they're available at dealerships now and will last for the entire year. There's a press release below with a little more background, and there's a sad violin playing somewhere in the distance.
Disappointed, party of one, your table is now ready...

How Charlotte lost to Plano without even knowing it was dealing with Toyota

Thu, 08 May 2014

With Toyota set to relocate its North American headquarters to the Dallas, TX suburb of Plano following a top-secret, 100-city search, the cities that missed out can now begin asking themselves what happened during a process they apparently knew little about.
That's a particularly brutal task for Charlotte, which, according to North Carolina's Secretary of Commerce, Sharon Decker, finished second to Plano. While Toyota has been fairly open about what it was looking for in a new headquarters city - direct flights to Japan, proximity to its US production facilities, a lower cost of living, high-quality educational facilities and finding a neutral site suitable to the California, Kentucky and New York-based employees that would be relocated - it's been less open about how the finalist cities, which also included Atlanta and Denver, stacked up against each other.
The Charlotte Observer has a few ideas. Part of the problem is the distinct lack of direct flights between Charlotte and Asia. US Airways, which operates a hub at Charlotte/Douglas International Airport, doesn't fly to Asia.
