Hello, my name is John Goubeaux and I am selling my 1976 Toyota Land Cruiser. I have owned this Cruiser for 13 years, purchasing it in December of the year 2000. It has served me well and has been a ton of fun but it is time to move on due to the circumstances of life. I hope she goes to a good home. I bought this truck in Buffalo New York and brought it back to Columbus Ohio as a play toy and creative project. Over the last 13 years I have poured much into this cruiser, both money and soul, developing it into what you see here today. I have only put 882 miles on this Cruiser over those last 13 years.

About the truck: The Cruiser retains its original 4.2 liter straight 6 cylinder with a two barrel Rochester carburetor. Both the engine and carb were professionally rebuilt and the truck runs great. The 4 speed manual transmission. All gears work smoothly. The exhaust flows through a FlowMaster muffler and into custom split pipes. Modern wiring harness and kit do the electrical duty with the fuse box stowed in the glove box. Ring-lit LED push buttons for the front and rear flood lights and the high/low windshield wiper speed settings. There is even a 12 volt auxiliary plug in the dash for a cell phone/mp3 charger, etc. A modern rear view mirror with dual map lights was also fitted for night time convenience. New LED tail lights and side marker lights just look awesome at night, as do the new aftermarket front marker lights and housings (these are the high quality Japanese replacements). New starter, plugs, wires, rotor, etc. Four wheel disc brake conversion, braided steel brake lines with a brake force distributor. NEW 35 inch Goodyear Wrangler tires I just put on the truck (about 60 miles on them - except for the never used 5th spare that sits on the equally new baja tire rack. Power steering conversion as well with a heavy duty power steering cooler mounted in front of the new radiator. All aluminum body tub. The metal up front is all original and rust free, professionally painted in 2011. The frame is also professionally custom made (made by Powell Racing) and runs aft of the front engine mounts, square tube, triple painted black, complete with drain slits. The rear bumper is actually part of the frame with a 2 inch receiver built into it as well. The suspension is Rancho RS5000s paired with "Old Man EMU" 6 inch lift off-road leaf springs. Hunsaker racing seats and RJ 5 point racing harnesses. Both seats also slide and recline. Aiwa radio (AM/FM/CD/with a front 3.5mm input jack) to a pair of NEW Rockford Fosgate PUNCH aluminum wake-boarding speaker cans. The cans are two-way separates (mid-ranges/tweeters)

Also included are: soft half doors, soft full doors, two bikini tops (one bikini is brand new) and a full soft top. The full top needs a zipper fixed on a flap. The pictures speak for themselves.

The Cruiser is located in London, Ohio (about 20 minutes west of Columbus). If close and serious enough, I welcome interested buyers to come and see her. I stand behind my truck as I do my reputation. Check my feedback and bid with complete confidence. Please write with any questions; if you are a serious buyer I will give you my phone number or give me yours with good times to call.

~John Goubeaux.

Lexus: No plans for LFA replacement anytime soon

Tue, Feb 10 2015

Supercars are fantastic in terms of their raw performance, sound and ability to inspire interest in an automaker. They aren't so good at actually making money, even for giant, global automakers like Toyota. And if you are holding out hope that Lexus might be fibbing about there being no plans for an LFA successor, we have some bad news. "I think you will see us do some incredible things in the future, but probably not a $375,000 supercar anytime soon," Lexus Executive Vice President Mark Templin told Automotive News. The issue comes down to the LFA's cost to develop and massive price. Lexus built just 500 of the V10 supercars from 2010 through 2012. Templin said that the plan was originally for a much more modest vehicle with a steel body. However, that intention changed to plans for an aluminum exterior and eventually evolved further to carbon fiber during the course of its engineering. Templin is clear that Lexus isn't giving up on more accessible performance with its F sub-brand models, but more supercars aren't coming, at least not anytime soon. He previously suggested that the LFA was a generational model with a 30-year wait for the next one. These days, the workshop that built the LFA has been converted for a much less powerful but perhaps more important vehicle. Toyota now uses it to build the Mirai with the company's hydrogen fuel cell powertrain.

2015 Toyota Camry priced at $22,970, Hybrid at $26,790

Tue, 02 Sep 2014

We last saw the heavily revised 2015 Toyota Camry at the New York Auto Show earlier this year. Now, it's finally time for the best-selling car in the US to hit the roads in late September, and Toyota is announcing how much the updated model actually costs.
The basic Camry LE rings up for $22,970 (*not including a $825 delivery, processing and handling fee). That's up slightly from the base price of $22,425 for the 2014.5 LE, but the updated sedan has some 2,000 new parts, while also being 1.8 inches longer and boasting a 0.4-inch wider track. The rest of the trim levels include the SE for $23,840, sporty new XSE for $26,150 and XLE at $26,150. Opting for the V6 is the XSE and XLE bumps pricing to $31,370.
Separately, the Camry Hybrid gets its own LE, SE and XLE trims. The LE starts at $26,790 with a standard, power driver's seat and 4.2-inch information display. The SE for $27,995 gets an improved interior and the XLE at $29,980 has leather, heated front seats, LED running lights and more.

Consumer Reports calls on Toyota to recall older Camry Hybrid models

Thu, 31 Jul 2014

Consumer Reports is calling on Toyota to issue an official recall of 178,000 Camry Hybrid sedans from model years 2007 to 2011, claiming that a pair of issues affecting the brakes are so dire they demand a more official action than what the company has undertaken so far.
The first issue, as CR tells it, relates to a clog in the brake-fluid reservoir filter, which if left untreated could lead to a number of dashboard warning lights. The "front brake assist could be temporarily lost," too, according to Toyota's own notice to dealers and owners of affected models. The company has issued a "service campaign" that will fit a new brake-fluid reservoir free of charge to any affected model brought to a dealer by June 30, 2017.
The other issue plaguing the fuel-sipping Camrys is being treated via a warranty extension, and focuses on the ABS brake actuator, a particularly expensive (both in terms of parts, at $1,000, and labor, around $3,000) item that is necessary for the anti-lock braking to function. There's also a related issue with the brake pedal's "stroke sensor," which like the actuator can lead to a very difficult-to-depress brake pedal. The warranty extension increases the coverage of the actuator to 10 years or 150,000 miles (whichever comes first).
