Awesome SUV in EXCEPTIONAL shape! Truly turns head wherever she goes! With bold Mustard Yellow paint
and clean lines, this beauty will definitely be a welcomed addition to your garage, collection or the perfect cure
for your mid-life crisis!
Spring-over axle. Beefier shackles suspension and 35/12.50/ORLT tires gives it approximately 10" of lift. This FJ
is one tall glass of water! Near PERFECT interior with stock front seats and rear jump seats. Truck has roll bar,
luggage rack, working front and rear heater, radio, front disc brakes, power steering, weld wheels and swing away
tire rack with spare tire. Roof is detachable (with some effort) for some topless Summer & Fall journey's.
Engine is the Toyota 2F G cylinder backed up with a 4 speed manual transmission. The truck was restored about 5 to
6 years ago to the best of my knowledge. It is covered in a rather unique metallic yellow paint that glitters in
the sun, which is the same hue as the original Toyota Mustard Yellow #532. My father and I bought the truck 2 years
ago and loved it, however I have since moved to NYC where this truck is not practical, so it is being sold. The
vehicle is currently in Maryland and has been garage kept since purchased. Odometer reads 98k, but unclear if those
are original miles.
The only real flaws in this FJ40 are a few bubbles in the paint at a few seams and very minor dings only noticeable
when viewing up close. She is nearly 40, so let's think about how many dings we have at 40! Fortunately, she's
seen a good surgeon. All around, this FJ40 is an incredibly FUN truck which gets attention at every corner! Would
love to see her go to someone who can enjoy as much as we have!
Truck is currently located in Howard County, Maryland and available to be viewed in person by appointment.
Please, NO TRADES! 100% not looking to trade for any vehicle, motorcycle, raccoon, wizard or acrobatic circus
animal. Only looking for a sale. Live in Manhattan and no matter how sexy your car is, I don't need another set of
wheels :)

Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead
Mon, 16 Jun 2014It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.

Swackhammer first fell in love with the Audi Ur-Quattro, became an enthusiast of Audi and Volkswagen cars, and has owned nothing else ever since. With his DKW, he combined his passion for the classic car with his responsibility to the environment. "I am pleased that I did this project," says the happy owner, "and I enjoy driving it very dearly." Meet the man and his beloved electric Audi DKW in the video below.

The new campus will be built in Plano, TX, and will be the workplace of about 4,000 Toyota employees. Corgan, who has already done 47 LEED certified projects, is already designing a temporary office for the site while it finishes the project. Toyota expects to begin working from the site in late 2016 or early 2017. Learn more in the press release below. In July, all new electrical generating capacity in the US came from renewable sources. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's Office of Energy Projects' newest "Energy Infrastructure Update" report says new electric generation put into service last month came from wind (379 megawatts), solar (21 megawatts) and hydro (5 megawatts). So far this year, 53 percent of new energy generation capacity has come from various renewable sources, and none from coal or nuclear. Currently, renewable energy accounts for 16.3 percent of the US electric generation capacity, providing about 14 percent of actual electricity.

Toyota recalling 11,200 Scion iQ models over faulty passenger sensors
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Toyota has announced a voluntary recall of 11,200 Scion iQ models from the 2012 and 2013 model years. According to the manufacturer, the problem with these pint-sized hatchbacks concerns the front passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) weight sensor cables.
The OCS sensors in the front passenger seat control the operation of things like the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner. In these affected models, the cables for these sensors located in the seat track can become damaged as the passenger seat slides forward and backward. And if the cables are damaged, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner may not function properly.
No injuries or crashes have been reported in conjunction with this issue.
