1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Full Time 4WD 4X4 <br>
Clean Title, Pink In Hand <br>
Rare 40th Anniversary Edition <br>
*Sorry no diff locks on this one* <br><br>

Here's your chance to own an Iconic truck. This is the last year of this body style and they are very difficult to find in this good of condition. The body and interior are overall in very good condition, just a few minor dings/scratches here and there, see pics. Previous owner had this thing for 14 years and all owners have kept it in the garage since new, notice there's no paint fade like you usually see with these model Land Cruisers. <br><br>

This truck also has a fully boxed frame making it a very solid and safe vehicle. These things are built like tanks. Bullet proof engine and drive terrain, 1 ton axels front and rear (plenty strong enough to handle 35" tires. Famous straight six motor - this is one of the most reliable engines Toyota has EVER built. 300K+ miles is common place on these things. <br><br>

This truck even has the orignal tools, jack, socket set, etc. These are all very rare to find still with the truck, they usually end up in someones garage and never follow the truck. <br><br>

Cruiser has a lot of new items & approx. cost (I have most of the receipts):<br>
 - New BFG All Terrain Tires (top rated for snow)
- $1200 <br>
- New Alternator - approx. $200 <br>
- New hoses including the large expensive one
that connects to the air filter - $300 <br>
- Just had the oil change, new oil filter, etc. I
will smog for buyer <br>
- New battery - $120 <br>
- In total I've probably put in over $2000 into
the truck in the last year and a half<br><br>

Fully Loaded! Features Include:<br>
 - Power everything: steering, windows, seats,
door locks <br>
- Sun roof! <br>
- Tinted windows<br>
- Hitch set up <br>
- Alloy wheels, with all of the center caps
(those usually tend to go missing) <br>
- Leather Interior, great condition for its age.

No rips! <br>
- Two tone leather that only came with the 40th
Anniversary Edition <br>
- Three row seating, 7 passenger <br>
- Removable third row for extra storage <br>
- Roof rack (stock) <br>
- CD Changer & AM/FM Radio<br>
 - Automatic transmission <br>
- Full Sized Spare<br>
- Straight axle front end <br><br>

There's only a few minor problems:<br>
 - Slight oil leak/consumption. I only have to
add a quart a couple of times between oil changes, every 1500 miles or so. <br>
- Power antenna button doesn't work. My mechanic
told me it should be an easy fix, but it's not that big of a deal to me. All other power itmes work! <br>
- Sometimes has a squeek in the steering collumn
when turning (usually when its cold), I looked it up on forums, just needs to have some grease put on underneath the steering wheel somewhere. <br>
- Driver side visor hangs a little low, doesn't
bother me, but if your over 6' tall it might. <br>
- Sometimes the rear passenger side door light
comes on as if the door is open when its not.<br>
- That's about all I can think of, really is in
great running/mechanical condition. <br><br>

This truck will make a great daily driver, family car, weekend warrior, camping truck, ski/snow board rig, fishing & hunting truck, build your rock crawler, etc. Your wish is it's command! You will love this Land Cruiser. SOLID SOLID TRUCK. Sorry I don't have very good pics, I will update later when I can.

 

I prefer to deal locally, but may consider other methods of sale. I will only sell within the US.

Toyota will roll out solid-state battery EVs globally in a couple of years

Thu, Jan 11 2024

GANDHINAGAR, India — Japan's Toyota Motor will in a couple of years globally launch vehicles with solid-state batteries that charge faster and last longer, an executive said on Thursday at an investment summit in India. Solid-state batteries promise to dramatically improve the driving range of electric vehicles (EVs), a key element of a strategic pivot Toyota unveiled in June to make up ground lost to Tesla and Chinese rivals, such as BYD, in the EV race. Last year, Toyota and oil refiner Idemitsu Kosan said they would tie up to develop and mass produce all-solid-state batteries, which they aim to commercialize in 2027 and 2028, followed by full-scale mass production. "We will be rolling out our electric vehicles with solid state batteries in a couple of years from now," said Vikram Gulati, the India head of Toyota Kirloskar Motor. It "will be a vehicle which will be charging in 10 minutes, giving a range of 1,200 kms (750 miles) and life expectancy will be very good". Gulati was speaking at the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit where one focus of the Indian government is attracting more investments to scale up EV manufacturing capacity in the world's third largest auto market. At the start of the summit on Wednesday, Japan's Suzuki Motor said its Indian subsidiary and Toyota partner Maruti Suzuki would export the group's first battery EV to Japan and Europe — marking the first time for Maruti to export to its parent company's home country. Electric models made up around 2% of India's car sales last year, but the government is targeting 30% by 2030 and India's road transport minister said at the summit he sees annual EV sales in India reaching 10 million vehicles by 2030. On Toyota's plans for solid-state batteries in India, Gulati said the carmaker had various sustainable technology options that would differ based on the country, market and customer preferences. "Right now, for India, flex fuel and ethanol can be a no-brainer right away," he added India's trade department has backed lowering taxes on hybrid vehicles to help the transition to cleaner energy sources, following demands by Japanese carmakers, Reuters has reported. Gulati said the Indian government should consider a carbon-based tax structure for cars, which would make it technologically agnostic and more equitable.  Green Lexus Suzuki Toyota Electric

BMW, Toyota warn about Chinese market slowing down

Fri, Aug 7 2015

BMW and Toyota are the latest automakers to become concerned about the closing throttle on the once rapidly accelerating vehicle market in China. There might be drastic effects on their ledgers at the end of the year. With the Chinese stock market no longer looking so healthy, the people just aren't buying as many new cars as in the past. Things got really bad in June after the first drop in deliveries in two years. BMW has already reduced Chinese production by 16,000 units so far this year. Despite the slowdown, the company has kept a brave face. "We experience that volatility in all emerging markets," BMW CEO Harald Krueger said in a conference call, according to Automotive News. The problem for Toyota is a bit stranger. Through July, the automaker's Chinese deliveries were actually up 12 percent. However, the gain was offset by falling sales prices. "This is making our business in China quite difficult. The business environment is getting tougher," Toyota Managing Officer Tetsuya Otake said, Automotive News reported. Much of the weakness in China has come in the middle part of the year, and from January through June deliveries were still up 8.4 percent. This means the effects haven't hit the financial results of some automakers too hard quite yet. In the second quarter, General Motors referenced the "challenging conditions" there but still posted a growing net income of $1.1 billion. Despite falling global sales, Toyota managed record income for the quarter, too.

Toyota updates Euro-market GT86 suspension, appearance

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

While we were busy ogling the Scion FR-S Release Series 1.0 with its Yuzu yellow paint and a workover by Toyota Racing Development, and the Japanese Toyota 86 buyers were trying out their Playstation-compatible Sports Drive Logger telemetry system, the European 2015 Toyota GT86 got fitted with some new parts of its own. New on next year's model are stiffer mounts for the front suspension and rear shock absorbers, and new shocks in the back for better damping and less friction. Toyota says the result is sharper steering and less body roll.
Inside, the instrument panel and center console get decorated with a "carbon-fiber motif." There are new shades of pearl white and silver to dress up the outside, and the roof gets a shark-fin antenna for sharper looks and aero. It goes on sale this summer, and you can read everything we just told you in the press release below. We've reached out to Scion to see if we'll get the same upgrades on the FR-S this summer, too, company PR rep Nancy Hubbell telling us, "The European changes are among those being considered for the US model FR-S and we'll have final confirmation soon."
