1973 Fj-40 Fj40 Landcruiser Land Cruiser Toyota on 2040-cars
Mount Horeb, Wisconsin, United States
This is a very solid very dependable all original Landcruiser. I have owned it for 5 years and always kept it in the garage and took the best care I could for it. It can be a daily driver. The previous owner had it in a couple of car shows - but I do not have details. There are some rust spots but only on the surface - it has seen some rain in it's days. All seals around the doors are in excellent condition. All windows work. No chips in glass. Doors lock. Original keys and manual. I hate to let this go, but I have to get my garage back. No accidents and no bodywork that I know of - all solid metal and no dents.
It has only been in Wisconsin for 5 years and never driven in winter. Always kept in garage. Small patches (dime size) in a about 10 places. New paint about 10 years ago - starting to fade in some areas but professionally done. Runs strong and drives excellent. Does leak oil in 2 places around transmission but only little spots. No radio, but there is a place for one. Does not burn any oil. All original - no aftermarket anything. Rare near perfect solid FJ-40. All complete, nothing missing. Comes with original manual and jack. I bought it 5 years ago off ebay for over $10k and there were 3 bids competing with me until the end. I have put about 20k miles on it driving my kids around during the summer months. The odometer does not work - all other instrumentation does including wipers, interior light, heaters, vents, lighter, all exterior lights. I do not think the wiper washer fluid works, but all the parts are there. No emissions equiptment in this cruiser. See my terms for payment. Shipping by car carrier is around $600 in continential US and takes about 3 weeks. I will help with shipping (availible for the load) on my end but you must coordinate setting up with carrier. |

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Toyota Tundra ditches V6 for 2015
Fri, 12 Sep 2014The Toyota Tundra debuted in new-ish form for the 2014 model year, but as we head into 2015, the truck boasts a couple of small updates. Most notably, the base V6 engine has been discontinued. On top of that, there's the new TRD Pro model on offer for 2015, which we've told you about before.
Why kill the V6? Simple - it was very low-volume. "The Tundra V6 take rate was significantly less than five percent," a Toyota spokesperson confirmed via email to Autoblog. So for 2015, the two V8 engine options remain - a 4.6-liter unit with 310 horsepower and 327 pound-feet of torque, or the more powerful 5.7-liter powerplant with 381 hp and 401 lb-ft. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive is standard. Four-wheel drive, of course, is available with either engine.
The only other noteworthy changes for 2015 include an optional integrated trailer brake for the 5.7-liter models, a new rear under-seat tray storage system for Double Cab trucks, and a spray-in bed-liner. Scroll down for the official press blast.
2013 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport
Tue, 16 Apr 2013"Oh yeah, Toyota still makes the Tacoma." Admit it, that's what you just said to yourself. It's a perfectly natural reaction, but the Tacoma has been quietly anchoring its segment for years, outselling every other compact pickup without making too much of a fuss. Toyota hasn't neglected the Tacoma - it was updated in 2012 with a revised nose and interior as the most noteable changes.
In a world awash with high-value fullsize pickups all vying for your attention, the Tacoma still charms more than a few buyers out of their cash. I hooked a Tacoma for a week to see whether it still has enough to recommend it.
