You are bidding on a 1978 Toyota FJ40 Landcruiser that has had some restoration done to it. The previous owner kept the vehicle garaged in Midlothian, VA and was only used as a fun weekend vehicle. The paint job speaks for itself in the pictures. No rust. There is some fading on the roof and some very small, minor chips/scratches but overall it is in great condition. The previous owner also made the conversion to a Chevy 350 V8 engine, 4 speed transmission. Starts and runs with no problems. Additional features: Mud King XT 32 x 11.5R x 15 LTM+S Tires, full custom roll bars, seats are original leather and are in excellent condition, Hella Fog Lamps (wiring still needs to be completed), upgraded metal brake lines, full Rhino undercoating, new muffler, tailpipe, battery, and car cover. The rear quarter panel of glass was fixed with Lexan DIY but should be an easy replacement for less than $50. Fuel gauge is stuck (unsure if it's the gauge or transmitter). Air conditioning does not work. Heater does. Radio works but an antenna needs to be installed. The front tires rub against the roll cage if you take a turn to tight or fast. It could use a 1-2" lift. Folding ambulance style seats in the rear. This vehicle is in good running condition and needs just a little more love to get it fully restored. Most of the restoration items are minor things. The only reason I am selling is because I am in the Navy and stationed in Hawaii. The vehicle is in Virginia with my parents. I haven't had much opportunity to drive it or spend restoring it. I had to buy another vehicle here in Hawaii recently when my daily driver died. I'd love to keep it but I just don't have the time to put into it right now and want to find a good home with someone who does have the time and money. The vehicle needs to be seen to be appreciated. It's a head turner and I got stopped whenever I made a run to the store or at a stoplight with people complimenting or asking about it.

Lost power in a winter storm? Just hook up a Toyota Prius like this guy did
Thu, Jan 9 2014The Toyota Prius' battery pack just got something like a five-star rating from a truly seasoned professional – a 50-year aircraft technician. Bob Osemlak, who'd served more than three of those five decades with the Canadian Air Force, brought electricity back to his home in December during a heavy ice storm thanks to his gas-electric car. His ingenuity allowed him to turn on lights, furnace, refrigerator and the TV. The Thornhill, Ontario resident lost power for nearly a day on December 21 – not nearly as much as millions of other people hit by the recent storm - and so he still set about using his Prius for backup power, according to EV World. His ingenuity allowed him to turn on lights, furnace, refrigerator and the TV. Being an aircraft technician for so long brought Osemlak the ability to home-brew his V2H set-up that he urges other people to avoid, for safety reasons. He had planned for a potential power outage by installing an outlet on his furnace and, when the storm struck, he ran a cord through the basement window to the car. During the nine hours Osemlak used his Prius for backup power, the car's fuel gauge only reduced less than one bar, or roughly the equivalent of a gallon of gasoline. It wasn't the first time Osemlak had played with his vehicle. In the 1960s, while stationed in Winnepeg, Manitoba, he created a car starter. Every hour, the car would start up and run for 10 minutes to avoid being frozen solid in frigid winter temperatures.

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper
Fri, Nov 10 2017With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.
