HI,

Selling my beloved 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser - Gold Package with roof rack, brand new towing package & all the options possible for this Land Cruiser. It is the Gold Package most easily identified by the Gold trim hood emblem and rear gold lettering.
I am 2nd owner, bought in November, 2004 from Vasser Chevrolet in Napa, CA.
Meticulously well maintained by my good friend Randy, chief mechanic at Toyota Vallejo.
I bought truck with about 78k miles on it and over time she now has 282k miles. The truck received complete reconditioning in spring of 2011 with more then 12k in parts and labor to truck, sparing no expense and had truck running better then when I first purchased it in 2004!
The Land Cruiser is the best SUV, period. Safe, splendid on long drives, I cannot say enough about Land Cruisers.
The truck will always take care of its owner providing basic maintenance is done. Currently, this truck needs a new right front axle assembly.This was the last bit of under carriage stuff to do as shocks, struts etc are all new from 2011.
New owner will also want to install a new battery down the road. There are no dents, there is some slight peeling of the clear coat finish on hood, although hardly any.
The truck has never been driven off road or towed anything but is built very well for these things.
My driving consisted of commuting to and from work 4 times a week and once a week drive with my daughter to take her to dinner. The Land cruiser is very safe and my family very precious to me. Addtionally, the Bay Area commute down I-80 is gentle on vehicles, some of the people out there driving today are reckless and the Land cruiser greatly reduced my apprehensions. It is a big, solid and heavy truck but drives like a BMW 6 series I used to own long years ago!
She has been driven to and from San Diego to visit family and this is where the Land Cruiser really shines. She does better on gas mileage on highway then the dealership said. Moreover, she is really meant to cruise the land and would fly in and out of the grapevine with ease. The power of this truck is amazing and it handles exceptionally well. It is a luxury truck, but then really good at what trucks are supposed to do.
I am selling my Land Cruiser for only one reason due to chronic health problems that became life threatening and have suffered the financial troubles that go with serious illness. I have to get thru this bump in the road.
My very tragic loss can be someone else's gain. I know a great deal about these trucks, alot more than car dealers and my friend at Toyota taught me so much about the Land Cruiser.
The Toyota Land Cruiser body type changed in 1998 and remained the same thru 2007. Toyota introduced a tft type GPS travel thing in the dash as option in 2001, made it standard in 2002. This is the exact same body used during same years for the Lexus 450, except that truck had some a softer transmission and some cosmetics to appeal to the luxury folks. Several Toyota folks told me in confidence though that the best Truck overall was the actual Landcrusier.
Anyhow, new owner would need to register and smog truck which I am certain she will pass.

New owner needs to install the right front axle assembly which top of line brand new factory part is less then 100$. Completion of this repair means truck can be driven anywhere, any season, tires are all weather and are 4 new Coopers, plus new Cooper spare.
Oh! Land Cruiser is Black with a light tan interior, has 3rd row seats which are carefully stored in my garage and has custom cargo floor liner as well as up front and rear seating floor liners. Has sun-roof as well.
Truck has heated seats, power windows, super cold air conditioning, rear air conditioning & heating, all the options, nothing spared.
Look up a Kelley blue book 1999 Toyota LC & toss in "very good" as condition with all options & you will know what you are getting.
This Land Cruiser is destined for a million more miles on current engine and transmission and also has 4 new tires, and I am not joking about the million miles!
Truck is in Fairfield, CA.

This is sold cash only OR certified cashier's check. As is, no warranty expressed or implied. No PayPal. I will provide incentive discount for buyer who knows the value of this truck offer and will need to tow it to your mechanic to complete right front axle assembly installation. Local pick-up only. Please feel free to have your mechanic, any local mechanic come by and give it a thorough go thru.

This is a really great truck I paid 25k, another 22k in financing :(, & I put another 20k into necessary maintenance, essentially over maintaining it.

177k Toyota Camry Hybrids being recalled for brake issue

Mon, 11 Aug 2014

It looks like Consumer Reports might be getting part of what it wants regarding the Toyota Camry Hybrid and its braking system. Toyota is issuing what it calls a limited service campaign, rather than a full recall, covering about 177,500 of the hybrid sedans from the 2007 through 2011 model years because of an issue with the cars' brake fluid reservoirs.
The models have a filter separating two chambers of the brake fluid reservoir, and the part can get clogged over time. If this happens, the fluid level in one of the chambers can get too low and eventually cause the power assist to fail. There are multiple warning lights on the dashboard that illuminate over time if the filter gets obstructed, though. The company is replacing the entire reservoir with an improved unit, and the fix takes about two hours to perform.
Consumer Reports recently began asking for a recall on these models for the potentially clogged filters. The magazine also reported a second issue with the ABS brake actuator that could lead to a difficult to depress brake, but Toyota has increased the warranty on the part to 10 years or 150,000 miles.

Toyota, Lexus to build more CUVs to meet surging demand

Sun, Jan 18 2015

What was the biggest takeaway from the auto industry's 2014? Besides the fact that recalls are now a sad and mostly unremarkable part of a vehicle's life, it's that you can't be a competitive, mainstream brand in the US without a really strong line of crossovers, SUVs or pickups. We saw evidence of this as recently as Monday, when Hyundai unveiled its HCD-15 Santa Cruz Concept, and now we're seeing it again with Toyota. The company already has a comprehensive lineup of both mainstream and luxury CUVs and SUVs, although surging demand – sales were up 16 percent last year, Bloomberg reports – has led the company to increase its production tempo at the plants responsible for the RAV4 and Lexus RX. "The freeze is still in place until the end of March of 2016," Toyota's Jim Lentz told Bloomberg during this week's Detroit Auto Show, referencing the production bump at the Japanese and Canadian factories responsible for the models. "That hasn't changed. All indications are that it will lift, but right now it has not lifted." The increased sales are even spurring the brand to consider additional CUVs, including a compact that would slot in below the RAV4, Lentz told the business publication. Such a move would give Toyota a player in an increasingly competitive and important segment. In 2014 alone, mainstream brands, including Honda, Mazda, Chevrolet and Jeep, have announced brand new products destined for the compact CUV market. "We're going to have to look at how the market under RAV4 develops," Lentz told Bloomberg. "There's no question that it's going to. That's going to be the next growth spurt." Related Video:

Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.
