1976 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FJ40
1976 TOYOTA FJ40. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I BOUGHT AN FJ43. I WAS TOLD THIS
FJ WAS RESTORED IN 2007. THE BODY IS 100% RUST FREE AND INCREDIBLY STRAIGHT. THE FJ HAS THE INLINE 6 2F 4.2L WITH A
4 SPEED TRANSMISSION. THE PAINT IS VERY VERY NICE DRIVER QUALITY. THERE IS ORANGE PEEL ON THE HOOD AND SOME DUST
UNDER THE PAINT ON THE HOOD, OTHERWISE THE PAINT IS REALLY NICE. SINCE I HAD THE FJ, I INSTALLED A BRAND NEW BEST
TOP SOFT TOP. CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER, DID A TUNE UP WITH NEW PLUGS,WIRES,DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND ROTOR. INSTALLED
NEW WEATHER STRIPPING ON THE DRIVERS DOOR. I HAVE THE PASSENGERS, BUT DIDNT GET A CHANCE TO INSTALL. ALSO A FEW
LITTLE OTHER THINGS LIKE NEW MIRRORS, NEW WIPERS, AND PROBABLY A COUPLE OTHER THINGS. THE FJ RUNS GREAT AND STARTS
RIGHT UP EVERY TIME. I DROVE IT FOR EVERYDAY FOR A WEEK, IT RAN GREAT! DROVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY, AND DRIVES STRAIGHT
WITH NO WOBBLE OR ISSUES. THERE IS AN AFTERMARKET TACHOMETER AND OIL PRESSURE GAUAGE THAT BOTH WORK. THE GAS GAUGE
AND TEMP GAUAGE DONT SEEM TO WORK. THE FJ DOESN'T LEAK A SINGLE DROP OF ANYTHING! I WOULD CONSIDER THE QUALITY OF

Toyota Yaris Hybrid-R is road-going version of brand's racing technology [w/video]
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Did you know that the Yaris is Toyota's best-selling vehicle in Europe? That may help explain to us Americans why the car that's lowest on the company's totem poll here in the US got turned into an all-wheel-drive hybrid track monster for the 2013 Frankfurt Monster Show.
Called the Toyota Yaris Hybrid-R, this three-door pocket rocket isn't just a hybrid making a lot of horsepower - it incorporates technology from Toyota's TS030 Hybrid racecar that competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship series, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Yaris Hybrid-R packs a 300-horsepower, turbocharged, 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine under its hood, which should be enough for most speed freaks, but Toyota pairs it with two 60-hp electric motors at each rear wheel (the same ones used in the production Yaris Hybrid that's sold in Europe). That makes total system output an insane-for-this-size 420 hybrid horsies.
But that's not all, as the Yaris Hybrid-R forgoes the traditional battery pack below the rear seats in favor of a supercapacitor, which can both hold more energy and has a much faster power charge/discharge speed than traditional batteries. Paired with the supercapacitor is a third 60-hp electric motor/generator positioned between the engine and six-speed sequential transmission. Its job is to feed the super capacitor energy during deceleration and direct its power to the rear electric motors when more grip and oomph is needed.
Toyota must go to trial over unintended acceleration suits
Tue, 08 Oct 2013Toyota is surely readying its trial lawyers, as the Japanese giant is officially headed to court in a pair of cases relating to its unintended acceleration fiascos of 2009 and 2010.
In the first case, the United States Supreme Court has actually got involved in matters, ignoring an appeal from Toyota that attempted to use an arbitrator to settle its California lawsuits. The automaker will now go to trial to face owners of 2010 Prius models over an alleged defect with the anti-lock braking systems, which plaintiffs say made the cars more difficult to stop, according to Bloomberg.
The second trial is a bit more in depth, covering the case of Ida St. John, an 83-year-old from Georgia, that crashed her 2005 Camry in 2009. The accident is believed to have played a part in her death, although the suit, being filed by her grandson, doesn't actually place blame on Toyota for her death.
Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX
Mon, Feb 2 2015Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.
