The red paint is not new, but it is a professional paint job that was done right. It looks like new paint because it is a super high quality.  There is NO RUST anywhere on this rig.  Notice in the pictures the custom body work where the gasoline fill caps are.  The rig has custom rock sliders and custom work to the front fenders as well.  All the parts are original Toyota FJ40.

I hate to sell this rig, but my father recently passed away and family comes first.  The FJ40 has always been garaged and I rarely drive it anymore.  It needs a good home with someone who will use it for what it is intended.

I am available on the weekends if anyone wants to come see the rig in person and drive it.  I live in the Sierra Foothills and have a local off road area we can take the rig so you can test it off road. Call 916-749-9350 to make appointment to see vehicle.

I am sure I am forgetting something about this rig.  IT has everything.  No cost was spared building this FJ40 to perfection.  Also comes with extra axles, driveshafts, wiper motors, and transfer case.

Buyer is responsible for picking up Hard top and hard doors.  If you do not want them, we can work something out.  But the hard top matches the rig. 

Buyer is responsible for shipping and transport of the vehicle after sale.  I will assist in arrranging to meet with transport service.  OR you can come here and drive it away!  I sold my brothers FJ40 to a guy in Colorado who flew to California and drove it home.  This vehicle does not come with a warranty and all sales are final. The vehicle has a clear California title and is currently registered and insured.  Buyer to send Paypal deposit of $700.00 within 48 hours of the close of auction.  I reserve to the right to cancel this auction at any time if the vehicle sells locally.  I am also willing to negotiate a sale outside of EBAY.  I will only accept full payment by cash in person or bank account transfer.

Good luck Bidding!

Suzuki and Daihatsu join Toyota electric vehicle venture

Wed, Jul 21 2021

TOKYO — Suzuki Motor Corp and Daihatsu are joining a commercial electric vehicle coalition led by Toyota Motor Corp, the carmakers announced on Wednesday, helping the Japanese alliance expand its focus from trucks to smaller cars. The two automakers will each acquire a 10% stake in the joint venture, on par with Isuzu Motors and Hino Motors, while Toyota will hold a 60% stake, they said. "With Suzuki and Daihatsu joining the project and working together, we'll be able to expand our circle of cooperation to not only cover commercial vehicles but also mini vehicles," said Toyota President Akio Toyoda. "With this expansion, I believe that we'll be able to take one step closer to a better mobility society," Toyoda said. The move comes as Japanese automakers face growing competition from tech giants and other rivals making electric and driverless cars. Toyota, Isuzu and Hino launched the Commercial Japan Partnership Technologies Corporation in April to bolster their competitive edge in connected, commercial vehicles. Daihatsu's president Soichiro Okudaira said joining the pact and introducing connected, mini-commercial vehicles would allow data sharing, a major benefit for companies to provide better services to customers and improve logistics efficiency.

Watch a Camry driver in full road rage

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

There are vehicles that, fair or not, will forever be associated with jerky drivers. But as this very recent footage from an in-car camera shows, even the most mundane of sedans can be piloted by an ass.
In this video, the driver of one very beige Toyota Camry is driving like a person choked with rage. Though we don't see which (if any) actions by our camera car might have lead up to the tirade, we do see the Camry driver swerving from lane to lane, in multiple attempts to get in front of and brake check the couple in the recording.
According to the text associated with the YouTube video, the offending incident took place last week, on a section of I-880 near Fremont, CA. The uploader has gone so far as to include the date, time and license plate number of the Camry driver, in hopes, we guess, that some kind of legal action can be taken against him. Take a closer look for yourself in the video below.

Legal approach in $1.2 billion Toyota settlement could impact handling of GM recall cases

Wed, 26 Mar 2014

In the past, if an automaker did something wrong, they were usually prosecuted by the US government through something called the TREAD Act. Short for Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation Act, it basically requires automakers to report recalls in other countries, along with any and all serious injuries or deaths, to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Failing to report or attempting to conceal anything when there's been a death or serious injury constitutes a criminal liability. The idea is that this setup puts the onus on manufacturers to keep NHTSA apprised of safety related issues before they become a problem in the US, thereby allowing the regulator to better protect consumers.
In theory, it sounds like a relatively airtight set of rules for dealing with misbehaving automakers. That didn't stop the US Department of Justice from ignoring TREAD in its prosecution of Toyota's handling of the unintended acceleration recall, though. The result of this new approach, which charged Toyota with wire fraud, was a $1.2 billion settlement. Now, the wire-fraud approach could be used for the expected case between the US government and General Motors, based on the statements of Attorney General Eric Holder, who specifically mentioned "similarly situated companies" when discussing Toyota.
