For sale is a 1988 Toyota Land Cruiser in excellent condition with only one owner. The car has a few small cosmetic scratches and dents, but is in great overall running condition.  It has not been driven frequently for the past few years, and it has been stored in a clean and dry garage. This car comes equipped with several optional features including leather seats, third-row rear seating, rear twelve volt accessory outlet, luggage tray, net, and rack, electric doors, windows, sunroof, and dual front and rear heaters. The tires have little to no wear on the tread and are in great shape. The Land Cruiser is powered by a fuel-injected inline 6-cylinder 4 liter engine making 155 horsepower allowing for a 3500-pound towing capacity. The rear seats fold completely flat leaving plenty of room for a large cargo load. Both the engine and transmission are in good running condition; the engine was rebuilt around 90,000 miles. Air conditioning and power steering are in great working order. The interior leather upholstery is in great condition for its age, however the driver’s seat has a few splits in need of repair. The original radio has been replaced with an Alpine unit. The rear carpeting has a few stains that are easily hidden with the third-row seating. The electronic choke mechanism knob on the dash near the steering column needs a new retracting spring because the choke knob will extend over time with normal driving vibrations. This is an easy fix requiring little work. The four-wheel drive system has to be manually engaged by locking the axle on each of the two front wheels.  Currently the right front wheel binds while engaged in four-wheel drive. This can be solved with a tune-up of the front end. Also, the electronic cruise control is in need of repair, and the fuel float in the tank does not read more than three-quarters full on the gas gauge. This car is in good drivable condition, and has been a reliable daily driver for several years. This is a great vehicle for any outdoorsman or any adventurous person. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions. Buyer is responsible for shipping or pickup arrangements. Vehicle is sold as-is.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Mon, Aug 6 2018

Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.

Toyota mints 10-millionth vehicle in Kentucky

Fri, 30 May 2014

In 26 years, from 1988 up to now, the Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky plant in Georgetown has built ten million vehicles - nearly enough for every citizen of Seoul, Korea or the nation of Hungary. The first car to roll off the line back when the claymation California Raisins were singing old Marvin Gaye hits and everybody wanted to know Who Framed Roger Rabbit? was a white Camry. The ten-millionth car to roll off the line among the Avalons and Venzas also produced there: a white Camry Hybrid.
Toyota has put $5.9 billion into the site since its inception, employment is up to 7,000 associates and will grow when Lexus ES350 assembly begins next year. Whereas car number one is a showpiece for the ages, one of the automaker's current associates will get to win the ten-millionth car in a blind drawing to be held this summer.
There's a press release below with more information on the impressive milestone.

Toyota Matrix discontinued for 2014

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

Between its slow sales and the upcoming redesign of the closely related Corolla sedan, things haven't been looking good for the Toyota Matrix (for some time now). After 10 years on the market, Toyota has officially announced that it will drop the Matrix from its US lineup following the 2013 model year.
The announcement was made as a part of a press release breaking down what's new for Toyota in 2014, but for now, it doesn't look like any Toyota-branded product will fill the Matrix's spot. The Matrix and its sister car, the defunct Pontiac Vibe, were the final vehicles developed under the joint venture between Toyota and General Motors, an arrangement launched back to 1984.
