Want to crush my dreams? Buy this fantastic FJ40. I'm military and have moved to a new house without a garage. The wife says it has to go even though I had every intention for keeping this for the rest of my life.

It is a 1976 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40- Extensive professional restoration completed in April of 2010.

Under the hood- The original 2F inline six cylinder engine was completely rebuilt by Mack Weld (highly respected builder) using top quality components including factory intake and exhaust valves, dome pistons etc. The Block was bored .30 over and the heads milled to perfection, then balanced and blue printed. The valve cover, intake manifold, and thermostat housing were all media blasted then powder coated for great looks and a durable finish. A Man-A-Fre hi performance kit was added, including ceramic coated two piece headers, complete exhaust, a 38 mm Weber carburetor with an electric choke, K&N hi flow air filter, HEI distributor/ coil, and top of the line spark plugs and wires. Finished with all new hoses, water pump, Performance Cooling all aluminum radiator, chrome overflow container, fuel pump, battery and much more. The motor has less than 5000 miles on it since the rebuild, proper break in procedures have been followed.

Steering- Heavy duty and very tight Saginaw power steering and axle mounted dampener used in conjunction with a shackle reversal kit provide a safer and more controlled driving experience. Axles/suspension/ tires - Factory axles with 4:10 gear ratio, and disc brake front end. Rebuilt Warn hubs, new brake pads. Outer bearings checked and repacked with synthetic grease. 4” lift springs from TPI and greaseable anti-inversion shackles. 35x12.5x15 B.F. Goodrich Mud terrains mounted on white spoke steel wheels. The Factory 4speed transmission and transfer case are in excellent condition, it shifts with ease and no slop. All fluids in the cases and axles have been replaced with synthetic blend fluids.

Body- Excellent rust free body from Arizona that has been repainted in high gloss single stage acrylic (better than factory) in the factory beige color (code 464). The undercarriage is coated with rust prohibiting paint and 3M undercoating. The fender wells, underside of the hood, and engine compartment are coated with an extra layer of 3M rocker panel guard type material that reduces chips, heat, and noise. The interior floor has been coated with a heavy duty textured liner that is far more durable than paint. It has the factory roll bar, and factory front and rear bumpers. Rear fender flares help protect the paint from debris thrown from the tires and allow extra clearance for the tires while articulating off road. Stainless steel bolts, door hinge pins, and washers are used throughout the vehicle. They make it easier to make adjustments, and to take the top and doors off without chipping the paint off of the bolts and surrounding paint. All of the seals needed to take the hard top on or off were replaced with new factory seals. New factory emblems too!

Interior- The front and rear jump seats are in perfect condition with new pads, hardware, seat belts, and covers from Spector off road. All new door seals. It has a new dash cover and a new headliner. All of the gauges, lights (selectable rear lights, upgraded interior and headlights), vents, door locks, and blowers work perfectly. This Land Cruiser comes with the original owners manual and has an extensive file of receipts that document the restoration.

It is extraordinarily expensive to restore a vintage Land Cruiser to this standard. I have the original tire carrier and the original back jump seats (all items included in sale). I replaced the jump seats with a bench seat so I could drive the kids around (they love it!). I also added seat belts to the bench seat. There is no radio or A/C! A lot of people ask... yes it easily does highway speeds (I just would not personally get this vehicle if you plan on going on the highway for long distances). I seldom have taken it on the highway and it has not seen any serious off road duty. Top has never been off.

While this FJ40 is not perfect, it is a fantastic by for the money. I would prefer to sell this to someone that can come take a look at it. Thanks for looking!

2014 Toyota 4Runner Limited

Thu, 08 May 2014

What would you say if we told you that outside of Jeep and Land Rover, the best brand for those who want to go off road is Toyota? Sounds remarkable, eh? But the truth is, Toyota's history of providing vehicles for the rougher bits of our blue marble dates back to 1950, barely a decade after Willys built the first Jeeps and only a few years after Land Rover made its big debut with the iconic Series I.
In fact, Toyota's start in off-roaders was with a small contract for providing the US Army with vehicles, during the Korean War. From that, the BJ was spawned. This Jeep-like vehicle evolved into the 20 Series and then into the iconic 40 Series Land Cruiser in the 1960s.
So yes, Toyota knows its way around the trails. While the Land Cruiser, deservedly, gets all the attention thanks to its impressive longevity, we're partial to the 4Runner, which is a far more affordable entry that serves as Toyota's challenger to the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

2019 Toyota Avalon vs. full-size sedans: How they compare on paper

Mon, Apr 23 2018

Full-size sedans aren't exactly in great demand at the moment, and at least one of the vehicles in this comparison has been rumored to be on the endangered species list. Yet, we've just had our first drive in the 2019 Toyota Avalon, and if anything has a chance of rejuvenating the segment a bit, it's an all-new version of what has long been the segment's benchmark. To see how the new Avalon compares, we've put together the below spreadsheet featuring the Avalon's primary apples-to-apples rivals, the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala. We also included the Nissan Maxima, which is comparable in price, sales and non-luxury badge, and which offers the sort of increased driver engagement promised by the new Avalon XSE and Touring trim levels. We also included the outgoing Avalon for reference as well as that car's luxury cousin, the Lexus ES, which can definitely be cross-shopped with the luxuriously trimmed Avalon Limited. You can use our Compare Cars tool to create your own comparison, such as one featuring the rear-wheel-drive Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger or even Kia Stinger. Alright, enough chit chat. On to the spreadsheet. Performance and fuel economy The GM sedans may come standard with four cylinders, including a mild hybrid system in the LaCrosse, but puh-lease. The V6 is the name of the game in this segment, with outputs now surpassing the 300-horsepower mark. The LaCrosse is the horsepower and torque champ, though it also weighs a bit more than the new 2019 Avalon, so acceleration is likely to be comparable. The Impala weighs a lot more and has only a six-speed automatic, so despite having a wee bit more power, one should expect it to be pokier (not a good sign for a car rumored to be on the chopping block). One would expect the Maxima's 300 hp and lowest curb weight to result in the quickest acceleration, but then it's also strapped to a CVT, which despite being better than ever, is still a CVT. Things get worse for Chevy when you consider the Impala's base four-cylinder gets the same 25 mpg combined as the Avalon's V6 — once again a segment best. Now, should you really prioritize fuel economy, the 2019 Toyota Avalon Hybrid really stands out with a 43 mpg rating (or 44 with the base XLE trim) that bests the outgoing Avalon Hybrid. Honestly, after driving this new Hybrid, it actually seems like it would be the best bet for most buyers. There's sufficient power, and it only costs $1,000 more than the comparable V6 version.

Russians create Toyota Land Cruiser ice sculpture with full interior

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The Toyota Land Cruiser is a pretty hot model around the world. But it took the Russians to make it cool. We have few hard, cold facts and only small slivers of information about these photos, but it seems the icy Toyota was part of the International Snow & Ice Festival in Perm, Russia.
Artists took a huge chunk of ice and shaved it down to the temporary art installation you see here. The sub-zero SUV comes complete with a full interior accessed by the (permanently frozen open) driver's side door. The steering wheel and seats look to be upholstered in, well, dirt. With the back seats removed, the frigid four-door is a pretty slick ride in which to chill out.
Just a thought, but wouldn't a Toyota Tundra have been more appropriate? See the gallery for more photos.
