1996 Land Cruiser Super Charged Overland Expedition Vehicle Fully Built on 2040-cars
Flagstaff, Arizona, United States
I have made a website dedicated to this truck full descriptions and photos. Please visit expocruiser.info/expo/Expo_Cruiser/Home.html The roof top tent is not pictured on some of the photo's but does come with the sale of the Land Cruiser. Please look at the above website for full details and pictures. I have owned the truck since 02/06/02. I am the 2nd owner. I bought it from our local Toyota dealership right here in Flagstaff AZ. with 60,000 miles on it, it now has 176356 miles on it now.I have kept perfect maintenance records and only used Toyota parts where available for maintenance and repairs. This Land Cruiser has been extremely pampered and given the royal treatment its whole life. The truck 110% reliable and I would drive it anywhere. We just got back from the Grand Canyon on a 3 day camping trip and the truck performed flawless as usual. It has lived in AZ its whole life so their is no rust at all on this Landcruiser. My wife and I have been very careful drivers and we do not smoke, slam the doors, use smelly air fresheners or have kids or pets so the truck is in amazing condition. I have seen lots of 80 series Land Cruisers through out the years and have NEVER seen one in better condition. All fluids used for maintenance are top of the line synthetic. This land Cruiser needs nothing and all maintenance is current. It is ready to drive back home no matter where you live. I have done all the work on this Land Cruiser minus the head reconditioning, I pulled the head and took it to a machine shop for a complete go over and replaced all wearable items i could think of while I had the head off. I also had the stereo professionally installed. Other than that I have personally done all the work myself. I am not new to Land Cruisers as I have owned several FJ40's, a 60, a FJ55 PIG and have done all the work and custom builds on all of them. No expense spared on this very complete build. This truck is a real head turner and I constantly get thumbs up or am getting questioned about the rig. It looks amazing and is in very good condition. I have gone over this truck with a fine toothed comb and have replaced allot of things that were not broken for good measure. It lives in my garage, kept on a battery tender when not in use. Just changed the engine oil and filter, front and rear diff oil, transfer case oil, transmission fluid, bleed brakes, it is ready for the drive home Feel free to contact me with questions you may have.

Toyota recalling 800k Camry, Avalon and Venza models for AC issue
Thu, 17 Oct 2013Toyota has announced plans to voluntarily recall 803,000 vehicles from model years 2012 and 2013, over concerns with the air conditioning condenser housing. The recall covers the Camry, Camry Hybrid, Avalon, Avalon Hybrid and Venza, although the exact split between affected models wasn't available.
According to Toyota, the condenser can leak onto an airbag control module, which in turn could cause a short circuit. In most cases, this will just lead to an airbag warning light, but in rarer instances, the airbags could fail to deploy or pop out of their own accord. There's also a concern over a loss of power steering if the airbag control module develops a short.
It's unclear if there have been any injuries or crashes relating to the defects. Toyota will begin informing owners of affected vehicles via first class mail, and will ask them to report to dealerships for recall work, involving the installation of a cover on the condenser housing.
Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac Vibe
Wed, Apr 17 2024Just over a month before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2009, General Motors announced that the 83-year-old Pontiac Division would be "phased out" by the end of 2010. Only three Pontiac vehicles were sold as 2010 models in the United States: the Solstice, Vibe and G6 (new G3s were sold here during 2010 but they were all 2009 models, while the G5 was available as a 2010 model only in Canada and Mexico). Today's bit of junkyard automotive history is one of the very last Vibes ever built, found in a yard near Denver, Colorado. This car is significant not just as one of the final vehicles to bear Pontiac badges but also as one of the last cars built by the New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated GM-Toyota joint venture in California, better known as NUMMI. The NUMMI factory began life as GM's Fremont Assembly, which built its first vehicle (a C-Series pickup) in 1963 and closed in 1982 after building its final vehicle (an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera). Rebooted as NUMMI, the first 1985 Chevrolet Nova (an Americanized AE82 Toyota Corolla Sprinter) rolled off the line in December of 1984. A quarter-century and better than eight million vehicles hence, NUMMI shut down production after its last Corolla was finished on April 1, 2010. While there was some noise about the Oakland Athletics building a new stadium on the site at the time, Tesla ended up buying most of the site soon after that. Tesla now builds more vehicles per year there than NUMMI ever did. The Vibe was co-developed with Toyota and based on the same platform as the ninth-generation Corolla. The Toyota Matrix was mechanically identical and was built in Canada, while the Japanese-market version (known as the Toyota Voltz) was built on the same NUMMI line as the Vibe and shipped across the Pacific. The Vibe/Matrix/Voltz got a redesign for the 2009 model year, but few noticed due to all the turmoil in the GM world at the time. The final Vibe was built in August 2009. This car was built in July of 2009, just before the end. It was living in West Texas just prior to coming to Colorado. El Paso is about a ten-hour drive from this car's current location. Once in the Centennial State, it got parked somewhere it shouldn't have been and ended up being auctioned to Pick Your Part. An occupant of this Vibe had time to sample some of the local agricultural products before that happened.
Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
