For sale is this rare 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser BJ40 Diesel. It was imported from the country of Costa Rica and has
a clean Oregon title where it is located. This BJ40 is a gem; it’s almost impossible to find Diesel cruisers in
this condition and so well preserved. This is an "original condition" vehicle, not a restoration or re-build, which
is even more rare. Original body, metal, motor, steering, brakes, head-liner etc. The paint and seat-door coverings
were new in 2009, but you can see in photos/video top quality.

It was purchased new in 1979 and kept in a garage, only taken out for pleasure cruising and trips around town.
Which such light use, it has 78,000 original kilometers (64,000 Miles). This BJ40 has absolutely no rust or other
signs of deterioration of the body, which is common in these vehicles in any climate. What you see in the photos
and video, is what you see in-person with this vehicle.

The B Diesel motor is known to be a workhorse and nearly indestructible, with fuel-economy of over 20 miles per
gallon. The BJ40 is a manual 4-speed with original steering. The vehicle shifts smoothly and travels straight with
great power. The 4-cylinder motor is made for low end torque climbing and cruising of 45-50 mph. A pioneer stereo
with CD player and new speakers were installed.

It was carefully maintained, up until the day of sale by the original owner. Our trusted mechanic, with years of
experience with these vehicles, did a complete inspection and found a few routine items common in a 37 year-old
vehicle. The following maintenance was done in 2016:
Cleaned motor and injection system and replaced injection heads
Reviewed and changed Glow Plugs
Changed oil and all filters
New belts
Revision and change of rubber seals
Changed primary pump on the clutch and adjusted
New radiator
Cleaning and adjustment of brakes, replaced brake fluid
New battery
Painted top, rack and ladder
Paint was re-done in 2009 in Carnival Red (T-335), inside and out. The paint is clean and professionally done. We
re-painted the vehicle top, rack and ladder in original white. This is a vehicle that doesn’t come along very
often. On June 18th, we entered into the Seaside, Oregon Car Show and won the "Founders Award". If you have been
waiting to find that near perfect Diesel Land Cruiser, then your wait is over!

Toyota discontinuing FJ Cruiser after 2014 model year

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

The Toyota FJ Cruiser is not long for this world. According to the manufacturer's own fleet website, the rugged FJ will be discontinued after the 2014 model year, with the companies final orders due in June of next year.
Toyota first launched the FJ Cruiser in 2006 as a 2007 model, and aside from minor year-over-year changes, it has not been substantially updated. The FJ is the modern successor to the original FJ40 Land Cruiser that Toyota produced from the 1960s all the way up through 1984, when the automaker decided to better focus on its larger, four-door Land Cruiser line. Currently, it uses a 4.0-liter V6 engine with either rear- or four-wheel drive, and is available with either a five-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission. Interestingly, word of the FJ's demise comes not long after Toyota's US boss, Bill Fay, reaffirmed his company's commitment to body-on-frame trucks in late July.
Also of interest, Toyota's fleet website states that the 2014 model year Prius range will have "minor updates," though it's unclear what those are as of this writing. When Autoblog reached out to confirm these developments with Toyota, spokesman Curt McCallister reminded us, "As is our corporate policy, we don't discuss future products beyond the present or upcoming model year."

Toyota TRD Pro Chase Trucks are ready to hit the desert at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Toyota marks the 35th anniversary of its Toyota Racing Development performance arm this year, and the division is celebrating at this year's SEMA Show with a quartet of tuned off-roaders based on on the 4Runner, Tacoma and Tundra that look more than ready to go just about anywhere.
All four of them will take part in this year's Baja 1000 race, but only the Tundra (far left in the above photo) is actually competing. The other three will be there to act as support vehicles.
Inspired by the production TRD Pro Series trucks, the 4Runner, Tacoma and Tundra are prepared by off-road fabricator N-Fab with a mix of TRD and the company's own parts to be able to take whatever the grueling, 1,000-mile can throw at them. The trio is fettled with extra communications equipment, GPS, additional lights and all sorts of body and suspension modifications to help them survive the ordeal.

Toyota casts off in Ponam-31 motor yacht [w/video]

Sun, 12 Oct 2014

Some Japanese automakers focus purely on cars, while others dabble in all sorts of motorized transportation. Honda, for example, makes everything from motorbikes to jet aircraft. But while Toyota may be known principally for automobiles, it also makes a line of boats. And this is the latest.
The new Toyota Ponam-31 motor yacht is built around an aluminum hull with a flybridge and cockpit rear deck layout, similar to the Carver 32 on which this writer spent his childhood summers. It measures 31 feet overall and is powered by a pair of 3.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engines derived from the Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX 460) but marinized for nautical application. Toyota has even equipped its new Sports Utility Cruiser with such features as Drive Assist and a Virtual Anchor System.
Toyota expects to sell around 15 units of the Ponam-31 through its network of 49 dealers across Japan, with prices starting at 29,700,000 yen (about $27,500 at today's conversion rates). Scroll down below for a video, along with a press release, meant to show potential customers what's waiting for them.
