What I have for sale is a rebuilt (not frame off) post 9/75 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. This is a beautiful truck that has had A LOT of work done to it. I just returned from 500 miles of highway, beach and small town driving. This truck cruised at 65-70 mph (appx. 12-14 mpg) and the 4x4 engaged smooth and strong. Its my daily driver and can be your daily driver as well--so the mileage will vary slightly when you get it--you just have to like stick shift! It starts up, drives, and is damn near BONE STOCK. Its clean, very little rust (the small amounts are surface). I bought this from a barn in PA and luckily it was rhino-lined inside and out -- after that, Ive completely rebuilt her. Most of this work was done by Black Wolf Auto in Woodbridge, VA and Trademark Classics in Harrisburg, PA. SOME of the work done (yes, I have the receipts):Engine: 1. Completely rebuild the 2F engine. This is bone stock. Drives perfectly -- starts every time -- has about 3k on the rebuilt engine. 2. Brand new alternator from 84 FJ40 -- internal regulator increases voltage to 60 amps. 3. Brand new high volume radiator -- this engine will not overheat. 4. New Distributor and distributor cap. 5. Rebuilt gearbox and transfer case. 6. Safari Snorkel with safari pre-snorkel, stock (1984) filter installed inside the vehicle. 7. New 38mm Carburetor timed for the vehicle. Works great. 8. Just pulled the crank shaft and redid all of the seals - does not drip oil, does not smoke. Oil pressure is perfect. 9. Dash mounted kill switch for when you leave your car in the city. 10. New spark plugs.11. Petronix electronic 1. Rebuilt brand new tie rods/ends -- no worries there. 2. New Toyota shocks (recommended, but you could easily go to Bilstein especially if you wanted to lift her).3. HFS steering stabilizer that works and looks great. 4. JTO Outfitters disc brakes up front and rebuilt stock drums brakes in rear (keep it original!) -- no troubles slowing down the 2F in DC traffic. Interior: 1. Reupholstered front seats -- I keep them covered. The rear seat is a bench seat that folds down.2. Tuffy box installed -- cup holders are in the rear. (I also have the original that is in great shape).3. BTB Box front locking box installed in place of dash pad.4. New Aussie mat fitted and installed with new transfer case/shifter boot.5. Used (but great shape) rear OEM Toyota hard mats. Externally:1. JTO Outfitter winch ready (looks super stock) front bumper. 2. Specter Off-Road rear swing out with dual jerry can holders (included), Hi-Lift Mount (included), axe and shovel handels and lighted license display. 3. CCOT rear tailgate installed.4. Safari Snorkel with Safari Pre-fileter (The regular pre-filter is included). 5. Besttop softtop with soft doors and also the normal hard doors. 6. New windshield wipers, wiper reservoir, and hardware (wiper fluid is intermittent for some reason).7. Brand new Hella Black Magic fog lights -- with dual internal switches.8. New Toyota/4x4 logos and rear flares installed on passenger and driver side.9. CCOT front license plate holder.10. Front Wheeling Hooks on bumper.11. Front Stock hard doors come with the vehicle, painted the same color. The driver side window has a crack in it (appx. 100 to buy) but the window regulator works just fine. 12. This car was repainted in a sort of Willys/military paint job. It looks good but if I held on to it, Id bring it back to Arctic white (original color). Some chips, some bubbles, but this car gets looks and folks generally lose their mind when you drive it. Thats a list of work done -- but Im sure Im leaving something out. Its a damn strong runner and will continue to be forever -- just depends on how you maintain her. You could put 10k into this and sell it for 50 or drive it for the next 20 years as is -- everything works very well. I have clean title (titled in VA) and passed safety inspection (No need for emissions). Car is tagged and titled in VA.

Toyota aims to build autonomous car around 2020 [w/videos]
Tue, Oct 6 2015The race is on to get increasingly sophisticated forms of autonomous driving technology on the road, and brands like Tesla are bringing these solutions to some drivers now. But as one of the world's largest automakers, it's no surprise to see Toyota competing in the field, as well. By 2020, the company thinks a person could be largely unnecessary for freeway trips. With a suite of tech called the Highway Teammate, a modified Lexus GS is already showing what's possible. Using a combination of millimeter wave radar, LIDAR, and cameras, the GS gets a full view of the road, and software processes all of the info to make decisions. The result is a ride on the freeway without human interaction. The system can merge, change lanes, make passes, take curves, and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. Accurate map data is a necessity to make this work, so the system currently only being tested on Tokyo's Shuto Expressway. While Highway Teammate might not be the best name, it accurately communicates the way Toyota thinks of the tech. The company is making big investments in artificial intelligence to assist drivers, not completely replace them. You can see the system in action in the video below, and the second clip's gravely serious narrator explains the company's idea of having a fully connected road someday.

New Toyota Test Vehicle Paves the Way for Commercialization of Automated Highway Driving Technologies Toyota City, Japan, October 6, 2015-Toyota has been testing a new automated driving test vehicle called Highway Teammate, with the aim of launching related products by around 2020. In addition to demonstrating the capabilities of next-generation safety technologies, the vehicle represents Toyota's view of the evolving driver-car relationship in the age of artificial intelligence. Toyota believes that interactions between drivers and cars should mirror those between close friends who share a common purpose, sometimes watching over each other and sometimes helping each other out. Toyota refers to this approach as the Mobility Teammate Concept, and Highway Teammate represents an important first effort to give form to this concept.
Why Lexus shies away from plug-in hybrids
Mon, Apr 20 2015Lexus may have softened its stance a bit from the anti plug-in vehicle ads the Toyota luxury badge ran last year, but at least one executive from the company casts a pretty critical eye towards the concept as a way to cut both emissions and refueling costs. In fact, Lexus doesn't really buy the fact that buyers of plug-in hybrids are really looking to save both gas and the environment, Green Car Reports says, citing an interview at the recent New York Auto Show with Lexus executive Mark Templin. Templin also said hydrogen fuel-cell technology may be a better way to edge towards zero emissions. Templin decried plug-in hybrid technology because it adds weight to vehicles, which contributes to poor emissions figures in the process. He added that plug-in vehicle buyers are motivated more by potential tax credits and solo driving rights in high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes than cutting back on fuel use. Last summer, Lexus ran an supposedly tongue-in-cheek print ad poking fun at how long it takes to charge a plug-in vehicle and how using air conditioning can shorten a car's charging range. Last spring, Lexus had to backpedal from an anti-electric ad it ran that had serious mistakes about hydrogen infrastructure. News Source: Green Car Reports Green Lexus Toyota Hybrid PHEV
Toyota sees Camry share loss despite predicting increasing sales
Tue, 02 Apr 2013Toyota may be set to lose share the midsize sedan market. While speaking with Automotive News, Toyota North America CEO Jim Lentz said that if his company kept pace with the current swell in the market for family four doors, Toyota would need to sell around 500,000 Camry models. "I'm not sure we can do much more than 400 [thousand] today," Lentz said.
But that doesn't mean Camry sales are shrinking - on the contrary, Lentz thinks Toyota will likely sell more Camry units in 2013 than it did in 2012, it's just that the company isn't keeping pace with segment's current explosion in popularity. Industry wide, midsized sedan sales have increased by 20 percent. "Are we going to lose [Camry] share? Probably so," Lentz said, "but we will continue to grow in raw volume."
Toyota sold 404,886 Camry units last year, and the company just revised its 2013 sales objective from 2.18 million units earlier this year to 2.2-million plus units, so while things are looking up for the brand and Camry sales may be on the rise, Toyota may not have the muscle to keep up its share in the sedan segment. Whether that's because of a production bottleneck or a predicted sales ceiling isn't clear. We've got a call in and will update this news item if/when we learn more.
