Desert Climate Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Milton, Florida, United States
Toyota BJ40 Import VIN BJ40-010077
This is a foreign import Land Cruiser. I am an importer, bonded and registered with US Customs. I imported this Land Cruiser along with a Land Rover Defender. I have all import documents to validate the import and clear title on the vehicle. We did a full restoration on the Land Rover and now due to my flight school schedule I don't feel I have the time or money to do the Land Cruiser proper. This vehicle is a clean daily driver, rust free, documented desert climate vehicle from day 1. It runs well with 186K miles on a diesel BJ 4 cylinder engine, its really just broken in, not high miles considering it is a diesel. Its strong, gasket tight and ready to drive and enjoy. My opinion is to media blast and repaint in the same classic color scheme. Media blasting is not a necessity but in my experience when a mediocre paint job is put over the original, it is best to media blast and start fresh.We have a facility we use who specialize in media blasting classic cars , then priming with epoxy sealer. We would be willing to facilitate this on request. If you are looking for an original Land Cruiser classic ready to drive and enjoy this is a great Toyota for it. If you are looking to restore a classic Land Cruiser which will command 35K plus this is a great Land Cruiser to work from. It's already a solid vehicle with a little TLC it can be the Land Cruiser envy. As I mentioned before I am in flight school under an intensive schedule which is time consuming and also very costly so I would be better to sell this one and help pay my expenses. The vehicle has been mechanically maintained. Recently it has received a new water pump. New thermostat and housing. New break master cylinder. I have tried to photo the best I can to show the vehicle condition. If you know what you're looking at then most of the photos will make sense. If I didn't get the shot you're looking for then message me and I will send you the photo angle you desire.I have a lot of additional photos I can email. There is no rust on the frame or under carriage and many of the additional photos I have show that. New Tires will be necessary. All questions welcome. We are just outside Pensacola FL and you are welcome to view the vehicle or send someone on your behalf. We have had some local interest so we reserve the right to cancel the listing at anytime, however I aim to honor the auction process. If you want to speak in person message me and I will give you a contact number. Thank you for your interest. |

Toyota, Ford not interested in FCA merger
Mon, Jun 15 2015Sergio Marchionne will preach the benefits of mergers to anyone who'll listen, but his calls for industry consolidation may be falling on deaf ears. At least, that is, the ears of those who the Fiat Chrysler chief would most like to bend. Not only is General Motors uninterested, but according to The Detroit News, neither are Toyota or Ford. "It's something we would not be interested in," said Toyota's North American chief Jim Lentz, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Toyota Technical Center. "At 10 million (vehicles) we have enough scale right now to do what we need to do. There really would be no advantage for us." Toyota isn't the only one unenthused by the prospect of merging with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The Detroit News also reports that Ford, though it may yet to have been approached by Marchionne, wouldn't be interested either. "We're not a suitor for FCA," said Ford CFO Bob Shanks. "We don't see that type of opportunity as one that applies to us." With GM, Toyota, and Ford expressing disinterest in Marchionne's merger idea, the FCA chief will likely start looking elsewhere – or look for other ways to compel his primary candidate to reconsider. He may eventually find a partner – more likely in the Far East or within Europe – but it may not take the form of the major player Sergio has hoped for.

Toyota and Mazda set to expand partnership
Mon, May 11 2015Toyota and Mazda are already teaming up for the Scion iA and Mazda2, but that partnership might just be the beginning. Reuters reports the two Japanese companies could expand their work together, with Toyota chipping in its experience with both fuel cells and plug-in-hybrid tech, and Mazda contributing its know-how in regards to its Skyactiv line of engines. The report cites a pair of unnamed sources that are "not authorized to discuss the matter publicly." The move, on the surface, is certainly appealing for both parties. Mazda has very little experience with hybrids (remember the Ford-rebadged Tribute Hybrid?), let alone something as advanced as a fuel-cell vehicle. Teaming with Toyota, arguably the world's greatest hybrid manufacturer, would give it a serious leg up. For the Japanese giant, meanwhile, a partnership with Mazda could expand the economy of scale for the Mirai FCV's tech, while Skyactiv engines would do well in replacing the base engines in cars like the Corolla, Camry, and RAV4. What are your thoughts? Would an expanded partnership between Toyota and Mazda make sense? Can you think of any drawbacks? Have your say in Comments.

10 of 18 midsize SUVs earn 'good' IIHS side impact safety rating
Wed, May 18 2022It's not terribly surprising that midsize SUVs earned better safety ratings than small SUVs in the latest side-impact tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Just how much better they scored, on the other hand, certainly raises an eyebrow. Ten out of 18 midsize SUVs earned the highest rating of 'good' in the stringent new test, altered for vehicles starting with the 2020 model year with a heavier barrier (4,200 pounds) that moves at a higher speed (37 miles per hour) and is fitted with a hard honeycomb frontal structure. By way of contrast, just one out of of 20 small SUVs earned a 'good' score. SUVs that receiving 'good' scores were the Ford Explorer, Infiniti QX60, Lincoln Aviator, Mazda CX-9, Nissan Pathfinder, Subaru Ascent, Toyota Highlander, Volkswagen Atlas, Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and Volkswagen ID.4. For EV fans, it's worth noting the ID.4 was the only electric vehicle included in the test. The Buick Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse scraped away with 'acceptable' ratings while the Honda Passport, Honda Pilot, Hyundai Palisade, Jeep Wrangler 4-door, Kia Telluride and Nissan Murano were deemed merely 'marginal' in the tough new test. Only two models — the Mazda CX-9 and Volkswagen ID.4 — earned a "Good" rating in every test category. Interestingly, the Jeep Wrangler would have scored a 'good' rating if it were equipped with side airbags for the rear seating positions. It would likely be an engineering challenge to equip its removable top and/or doors with airbags, but the lack of that safety feature allowed the head of the rear passenger dummy to hit the vertical support of the top. Otherwise, the Wrangler scored good ratings across the board. The new Ford Bronco, which makes more allowances for side-impact safety, has not yet been tested. The popular Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride SUVs stand out in the test with 'poor' ratings for driver pelvis injuries. The Nissan Murano, a vehicle last redesigned for the 2015 model year, was the only vehicle tested that received a 'poor' rating for its structure and safety cage. Videos of the tests of 12 of these 18 SUVs can be found on the IIHS' YouTube page.
