This is not your standard 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60.

-The original suspension has been replaced with 3/4 ton Chevrolet suspension, with new shocks, lifting the body 26'' off the ground. 33' tires.

-To compliment the new suspension the stock inline 6 cylinder has been replaced with a 1985 Chevrolet 6.2L diesel. The new power plant gives the Land Cruiser a lot more power and better fuel economy than the original engine. This Land Cruiser gets 20-25 mpg, and is a blast to drive. The engine recently has been through and tuned by the local diesel expert shop, 'Oregon Fuel Injection' (700$ service).

-The roof rack was custom built for the vehicle.

-The sound system consists of a Sony CD player, 6x9 speakers and two Pyle 10'' sub woofers. Lanzar 2000 watt amp.

-The original jack and tool kit are still in the vehicle.

-The trunk area has been bed lined and has additional tie downs added to the floor.

-Super straight body, only two tiny dents on passenger fender. Body is rust and cancer free. This is a southern California car, only spent last 4 years in Oregon.

The original manual and a 6.2l manual are included, along with a stack of receipts.

The bad:

- The clear coat is wearing thin, could use new paint job. (we are a custom shop, and if a new paint job is desired, we can negotiate a price to have the cruiser painted before pick up)

-The drivers seat fabric is torn, both front seats currently have seat covers to help protect them.

-Carpet is old and a little worn.

-Tinting on the windows is scratched in some areas

This is a super sexy rig, that is practical and fun to drive. It is one of a kind and will turn heads wherever you go. Don't miss out on this rare find.

Here is a video so you can hear it run and watch it drive.

Toyota expects hybrids will soon reach 20-percent sales volume globally

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Hybrids have come quite a long way from their roots as dull, slow, boring ecomobiles. Today, Porsche sells three hybrid models, one of which is the amazing 918 Spyder. BMW will soon sell four, including a low-slung, two-seat sports car. Even Ferrari and McLaren, full-fledged hypercar manufacturers, are embracing the tech. And all of these cars are sold alongside the same sort of boring cars that popularized hybrids in the first place. According to Toyota Chairman Takeshi Uchiyamada, though, we should see an even bigger increase in the number of hybrid vehicles in the coming years.
"I foresee hybrid models pretty soon reaching 20 percent of global sales from about 13 percent to 14 percent now," Uchiyamada-san told Automotive News. Uchiyamada is the man behind the original Prius, which gives him some degree of authority on making predictions about hybrid adoption.
What's remarkable, though, is that the 20-percent figure doesn't include plug-in hybrids, just gas- and diesel-electric models. "Suppliers need higher volumes to slash costs of components specific to plug-in models, including batteries that should be bigger and more capable than the ones used in traditional hybrids," Uchiyamada told AN.

Toyota to recall 185k cars globally, including Yaris

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

Toyota has announced it is recalling a total of 185,000 vehicles worldwide for a power steering issue. Yaris and (overseas) Vitz models built between November 2010 and March 2012 could suffer a short circuit in their power steering control module if water gets inside. Should that happen, the power steering could fail, increasing effort when turning. The recall also includes the Verso-S and Ractis built from August 2010 to August 2011. The recall covers 130,000 vehicles in Japan and around 22,450 in Europe.
Only 74 units are being recalled in the United States.
Toyota says if the fault occurs, the vehicle will display the Electronic Power Steering warning light on the dash and a buzzer will sound. The automaker will alert owners by mail and dealers will replace the power steering control module free of charge. You can read the quick press release on the recall below for more information.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
