This is an excellent vehicle for the avid Cruiser head! The 2H engine is a rock solid diesel engine and has been well maintained through and through. This engine produces alot of low end torque which allows it power through 4WD terrain with ease. Toyota has a rugged reputation and this vehicle is no exception.

There is some rust on the under carriage, however, the tub is solid and there are no wear spots. A hail storm imparted a handful of dings to the roof and hood, but it is only slightly evident.

This is a mechanically sound vehicle. It is capable of 4WD adventures in the high passes of the San Juan mountains at 12,600 ft and will likewise drive 75 MPH down the highway. Parts are surprisingly available for this model and it always turns heads. The exterior is in overall good condition, however, it has a mirror which has fallen off and the Landcruiser emblem on the passenger side has fallen off. I do have both of them as well as some additional items to go with the winning bidder.

The fuel economy specifics are entirely up to how hard and fast you push the vehicle, but at 65 MPH on the HWY you can expect anywhere from 18-20 MPG of DIESEL! It is a heavy machine and non turboed therefore it does pass black smoke in the exhaust...this is normal! I have considered installing the appropriate turbo charger for it in the past, however, they are very expensive to purchase and I don't know many mechanics who were willing to tackle the project without charging as much as the turbo.

I am the third owner of this truck and her name is Sadie. The original owner was a plumber from Canada and the second owner was a lawyer who had it imported to San Antonio, Tx. He would use it to take his kids hunting and for going out to get ice cream on Sundays. I bought her about five years ago to get me back and forth from college a two hour drive away. I made the trek once a week and she never gave me any problems. On days I woke up late she would push me to class at 75MPH!

I am selling because I have finished college and my wife and I own a few businesses in which I need to invest the money I have in the Landcruiser to ensure their survival.

I still owe a small amount, but my bank is very timely and easy to work with. The winning bidder may pay with paypal or via wire transfer.

Thanks for looking!

Toyota Prius line may not reach 2013 sales target

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

2012 was a good year for the Toyota Prius line, the hybrid that started it all moving 236,659 units, being the best-selling model in California for the year and the Prius C (pictured) being deemed the most reliable car of 2012 by Consumer Reports. Then 2013 happened, and gas prices dropped more than expected, and people haven't been buying the little hybrids like they used to.
A report in Bloomberg says Toyota set 250,000 units as the Prius family's sales target for this year, but hits like the double-digit drop in year-on-year performance in February have helped lower 2013 sales by 8.4 percent compared to 2012, making the objective "a challenge" to reach. The declines in Prius sales come even as hybrid sales overall were up in the first couple of months this year, including sales of other Toyota and Lexus hybrids. Jim Lentz, Toyota's North American chief, said the Prius target would be adjusted if necessary.

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.

When a Ferrari and a Toyota GT86 get jiggy, strange things happen

Fri, Jul 8 2016

Swapping V8s into small Japanese cars is not new. In fact, swapping V8s into small sportscars from anywhere is not new. From the original Cobra to the modern FR-S and BRZ, big V8 power in a light, lithe chassis has been delicious combination rivaling the Reese's peanut butter cup. People familiar with these swaps know that American iron is the preferred source for large-displacement grunt, but Ryan Tuerck and Gumout have taken a different route, specifically from Italy. Replacing the 2.0-liter flat-4 of this Toyota GT86 is a Ferrari F136 V8. Unfortunately that's about the only detail we really know about this project. The F136 was used in the F430, California and 458 Italia, and all with varying displacement and output. So we don't even know which of those variants this engine is. If it came from a California, that'd at least make the front-engine location easier to fabricate. No matter though, it's still a Ferrari engine in a small car, and that's awesome. And Donut Media, the company that produced the video, promises more details down the road. In the meantime, enjoy this video preview of the project.
