I bought this Land Cruiser about 4 years ago with hopes to lift it and make a huge off roader. Reality is, it has mostly sat in the garage I don't see throwing a lot of suspension parts at it when it is so nice stock, so I decided to sell it. It has 147k miles with stock lockers, and runs perfectly. The only mechanical thing that is wrong with it is the cable inside the antenna is broken( as are most 4 runners and land cruisers) other than that every single button, switch, everything works perfectly. After I purchased it I installed double plat. plugs, high grade plug wires, new distributor cap and rotor, air filter, etc. It has fresh full syn. oil and fram syn. 10k mile gold filter. I have high end parts(Australian comp. ceramic brake pads for front, denso(oe) ignition coil, etc.) that it doesn't need yet that come with it. Every single square inch of this vehicle has been gone through and is mechanically perfect. I even tried to service the e lockers and they were perfect no new gaskets or anything( as you guys know these elocks are precise and dependable but very expensive to repair if not maintained properly). I meticulously maintain all of our vehicles(Toyotas) with top quality o.e. or higher grade parts. The exterior is in good shape with no known dents or dings, some scratches mostly on the hood(most are rubs that will buff out), the only thing I would consider not normal wear and tear on a 16 year old vehicle is the scrapes that have been touched up on the drivers side front quarter panel under the 40th emblem, and the small area centered above the windshield where the paint is bubbled a little, I was told it was a scrape that was touched up without using the correct primer( about $100 or less at body shop with sand, prime, paint). Other than that the paint is very glossy and deep. The interior is beautiful, the drivers seat shows a little wear but no tears or rips, way better shape than most ive seen, the rest of the int. is flawless. The paint code is Antique Sage Pearl 1B2 which was only offered in 97 and only for the 40th ann. This Land Cruiser literally has every single option Toyota offered, including the Toyota 2000 alarm with glass break sensors,e lockers, 40th ann., paint code, climate control, etc. The truck has been professionally cleaned inside and out, and I tried to fix every little thing I could think of before sell. I truly hate to sell this vehicle especially since it has driven flawlessly since I purchased it. It has nice yokohama geolander tires. I also have the leather bound 40th ann. owners manual, a stock land cruiser maintenance manual, a Toyota 2000 alarm manual, and all other original manuals and literature from initial sale. This truck was a 12 year corporate lease for the first owner( he let his daughter drive it some which resulted in the scrape for mentioned on the quarter panel, it was the only damage on the incident(accident) reported, and I have all receipts for this and everything else from the original owner) the auto check and carfax speak for themselves. The good thing about the corpo. lease is it had to meet all Toyota factory maintenance intervals its whole life as part of the lease agreement. I am the second owner. All serious bidders are welcome to contact me through ebay, and will give my phone number for any and all questions. Serious bidders and inquiries only. This vehicle is sold with no warranty implied, and is being sold as is, so please ask any questions before bidding.

Audi, Toyota land on MIT's list of 50 Most Disruptive Companies
Sat, 23 Feb 2013MIT Technology Review, a magazine all about innovation, has announced its list of the 50 most disruptive companies in 2013, and both Audi and Toyota made the cut. While the term "most disruptive" may carry a negative connotation in most uses (especially in the classroom), the acknowledgement in this case is an accolade, signifying that the company is at the forefront of its industry. In a nutshell, a disruptive company is a business whose innovations force other businesses to alter their strategic direction.
Audi made the list for "pushing autonomous cars closer to fruition with a laser-scanning road detector that fits in a vehicle's front grille," and Toyota for "expanding its dominance of the hybrid-car market with its new plug-in version of the Prius." Click on the image above to be taken to the original graphic at MIT Technology Review, where clickable colored squares reveal information about each of the 50 winners, compiled from a variety of industries.
Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota
Wed, Feb 25 2015It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.

Honda Accord barely edges Toyota Prius as California's best-selling car
Wed, Feb 18 2015The Toyota Prius definitely still matters, at least to car buyers in California. The long-lived hybrid was the state's second-bestselling vehicle in 2014 by moving 71,210 units across all of its variants, including the Prius C. The Toyota was the leader there in 2012 and 2013 but lost the sales crown this time – just barely – to the Honda Accord, which sold 71,578 examples. The results in the Golden State illustrate just how different the auto market there is compared to the rest of the country. Prius sales slumped last year nationwide with a drop of 11.5 percent to 207,372 examples sold. However, according to the LA Times, the model's numbers ticked up two percent in California in 2014. Taken by itself, the standard hatchback model would have been the sixth-bestseller there, with 39,036 units purchased. While the Toyota showed modest growth, it wasn't enough to fend off the Accord's 17 percent year-over-year jump in the state, though. According to the Los Angeles Times, the rest of the California top ten included the Honda Civic, Toyota Camry, Corolla, Ford F-Series, CR-V, Nissan Altima, Sentra and Chevrolet Silverado, respectively. That list was quite a departure from the nationwide bestsellers in 2014, which was led by the F-Series, Silverado and Ram pickups. The Camry was the country's foremost car on the list in fourth place overall to beat the Accord in fifth. The Prius didn't break into the ten biggest sellers in the US last year.
