NO RESERVE AUCTION!!  High bid wins!

You are viewing my 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80. 

This is a very, very, very clean CarFax certified, no rust California raised, garaged and well maintained Land Cruiser.

I bought this Cruiser from SoCal where it was garaged its entire life and owned by 3 family members (CarFax shows 4 but it's only 3) most recently the son-in-law.  First with his mother-in-law, then his brother-in-law and then previous owner (son-in-law) got the cruiser with 110k miles.  After a year or so he added a 2.5" OME lift, new BFG All-Terrains 285/75/16 and a rear tire carrier and Yakima Load Bars and Axxis front bumper.

Sorry. No front & rear lockers. Stock center diff lock only when in low range.

The really cool thing is the mother-in-law installed Land Cruiser seats covers, only available overseas, at the time of purchase and the leather seats didn't see the light of day until recently when I brought the cruiser home.   Therefore the seats are almost perfect. I tried to take detailed photos but they are probably better in person than in the photos. Totally awesome.

Only a few small blemishes on the inside, very minor.  All leather near perfect.  Steering wheel leather near perfect as well as gear shift lever.  No fake wood dash here, nice clean look.  Everything works including, the PWR, 2nd gear start, OD buttons, etc.  All power windows works great as do the door locks and sunroof and it doesn't leak. Power seats function flawlessly.  The only issues are the power antenna motor works but the antenna is missing (stock radio still tunes fine and play CD's). The "D" light is burned out and the left side bulb that illuminates the dash is burned out.  The driver side sun visor needs a little help staying in the up position. I use a little clip.  Those are the only issues on the interior of this cruiser.  It's simply nicer than most you've ever seen.

The original paint is in fantastic shape with very few scratches here and there and one small dent in the tailgate (all in photos below).  No accident history or past bodywork.  You might be amazed at the overall condition of this cruiser.  Zero rust.  Stock alloy wheels look great with new OEM center caps.   Tires around 50% tread with brand new spare currently under the truck but can be mounted on the rear tire carrier. Roof rack side rails removed and holes plugged using info from an IH8MUD thread.  Front knuckles/birfields look great. No leaks to speak of and just had new brakes at all four corners and a recent service including oil, lube, filter and a few fluids.  New EGR transducer & temp sensor and catalytic converters at 172k. New rear main seal and crank seal at 159k. Full tune-up including cap, rotor, plugs, wires etc. at 181k. It runs, drives, shifts, brakes just great.  In my opinion it drives better than some cruisers with less miles.  The PHH has been replaced and no HG issues. It really is a pleasure to drive.  Axxis front bumper with winch mount (no winch) which is just a few years old.  Yakima load bars with faring. Receiver hitch.  Maui Toyota license plate frame on front bumper for show. It's never been to Hawaii.

Rear swing out tire carrier included but not currently installed. Full size spare currently mounted under the cruiser in the factory position.

I am selling because I found a Lexus LX 450 all stock with "diff locks" in pretty nice condition.  It was a tough choice to sell this superb cruiser. But I plan to add the OME lift and BFG's to my Lexus but it will never hold a candle to this 80 series.

Senator pushes for up to life sentence for auto execs found to delay recalls

Tue, Aug 5 2014

Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill (shown above) has had it with automotive execs stalling when it comes to recalls. The Missiourian has proposed a new bill, the Motor Vehicle and Highway Safety Enhancement Act, which aims to improve the automotive safety following the high-profile fiascos involving General Motors and Toyota. Aside from a doubling of the budget for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration over the next six years and the removal of the $35-million limit for fining automakers, the plan includes a provision that would punish auto executives if it's discovered they knowingly delayed recalls. How will it punish them, you ask? Oh, you know, just life in prison. The bill "gives federal prosecutors greater discretion to bring criminal prosecutions for auto safety violations and increases the possible penalties, including up to life in prison for violations that result in death," McCaskill's office told The Detroit News. If a delayed recall led to serious injuries, meanwhile, execs could still face a 15-year stint behind bars. As for that change in the fine structure for automakers, the removal of the limit is complemented by a hefty increase in the per-vehicle fine, from $5,000 to $25,000. With this change, GM could have been on the hook for $55 billion (with a "b") in fines for its bumbling of the ignition switch recall, rather than just $35 million. The News says, though, that NHTSA has "wide discretion" in handing out the fines. Considering a $55-billion fine is enough to sink any automaker, it is unlikely that such a monumental sum would be handed out. Still, the potential threat of such a death sentence should be enough for any automaker to sit up and take notice. "With millions of Americans behind the wheel every day, and more than 33,000 killed on our roads each year, we've got to do more to keep our cars and the roads we drive them on safe," McCaskill said, according to The News. "Painful recent examples at Toyota and GM have shown us we also must make it easier to hold accountable those who jeopardize consumers' safety. For too long, auto safety resources have remained virtually stagnant while cars and the safety challenges they present have become more complex." What do you think? Do you agree with McCaskill's proposed bill? Should the punishments for automakers and execs be more or less harsh? Have your say in Comments. News Source: The Detroit NewsImage Credit: J.

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.

Recharge Wrap-up: Porsche Mission E charging for Tesla, net zero energy Toyota dealership

Wed, Oct 5 2016

Porsche has confirmed that its Mission E charging infrastructure will also work with Tesla vehicles. The ultra-fast, 800-volt charging system will recharge the Mission E to 80 percent in about 15 minutes, and will also service new EVs from Volkswagen and Audi. Porsche CEO Oliver Blume told Top Gear that development of the charging infrastructure "sounds easy but getting the details agreed is hard. We already have the clear technical concept. It can even work with Teslas, with an adapter." Dieter Zetsche, Head of Mercedes-Benz, also tells Top Gear that they are "in talks" with Porsche regarding charging infrastructure. Read more at Top Gear, or from Electrek. An Oregon Toyota dealership is set to be the world's first net zero energy automotive dealership. The newly constructed, LEED Platinum certified Toyota of Corvallis produces more energy than it consumes, for which it is expected to receive Net Zero Energy certification. The 34,800-square-foot building is equipped with enough solar panels to produce as much energy that the dealership will use, with excess being put back into the grid, which will help during hours of peak demand. Toyota Motor Sales regional manager Steve Haag calls Toyota of Corvallis, "a first-of-its-kind template for the auto dealership of the future." Read more from Toyota. Valeo has introduced a new 48-volt hybrid system. The 48V e4Sport, as it is called, uses a 48-volt battery, electric starter-generator, electric supercharger, and eRAD electric rear axle drive for all-wheel drive. It maximizes regenerative braking and stores that energy for increasing torque with the starter-generator, and increasing acceleration with the electric supercharger. The system also supports all-electric driving modes. Valeo says the system is applicable across all vehicle segments, and works with both gasoline and diesel engines. Read more at Green Car Congress. PSA Group has created its own mobility solutions brand, called Free2Move. Free2Move will handle programs like car sharing, connected services, corporate fleet services, and affordable leasing programs for Peugeot, Citroen, DS, and other PSA partners. "For the PSA Group, mobility means not only making and selling excellent cars, but also offering a full range of mobility solutions," says PSA Group VP of Mobility Services Gregoire Olivier.
