This 1978 FJ40 Toyota Land Cruiser is as stock as I'm able to keep it with 94k original miles. I bought it off the previous owner who owned this TLC for about 30 years. It spent much of its life in Utah where climate is dry. It has never been used for rock-crawling.
The emission system has not been tampered with and is all original. Mileage shown is believed to be actual as the odometer has never been inoperative during the time-period of our ownership, but mileage may increase from that pictured.
The original owner's manual, jack, and tire tools and their pouch are included. All mechanical and electrical items function including lights, horn, wipers, radio, turn signals, window cranks, door latches and locks. I have the original keys for doors, ignition, gas cap door and rear door.
Repairs, which have been rare, are made using original Toyota parts and generally accomplished by a Toyota dealership. It has manually locking front hubs. The transfer case has high and low speeds, and the 4-speed transmission easily up-shifts and down-shifts. We have never used it for towing but does have a hitch. It is extremely reliable and has never let us down a single time.
It has the original 6-cylinder engine and boosted disc brakes. It has no power accessories, air conditioning, cruise control, sound insulation, etc. It has a rear-seat area heater.
The paint is original except for professionally repaired and painted rust spots on the front fenders, rear quarter panels and beneath the rear door. Some small rust spots appear on the inside right rear fender, where steps join the body and on hood latches. The pan and frame show very little rust considering the vehicle's age, but springs, hubs and shackle area do show surface rust. The skid plates show no sign of ever being in contact with hard objects. No rust is seen that affects structural integrity.

It has never been in an accident. An inch-long crack is in the vinyl dash. A CB antenna is installed on the rear. Rear speakers are installed but are low-tech by today's standards. Original vinyl seat covers are on the seats. The tires are brand new BF Goodrich that were $200 each. I also just installed brand new Bilstein shocks.

There is no leaks on anything on this cruiser. It starts when cold with half-choke; it idles nicely and doesn't hesitate when accelerating. I just put a new clutch and water pump within the last month.
The vehicle is kept garaged but is 34-years old and has expected age-related minor flaws, all of which are not listed here.

This vehicle has no warranty and is being sold "as-is."

Toyota recalls 4,000 Tacoma pickups over valve springs

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

When you build as many cars and trucks as Toyota does, you're bound to run into the occasional recall. In the past month alone, the Japanese auto giant has recalled over 800,000 Camry, Avalon and Venza models over problems with the air-conditioning units, and 10,000 more before that over windshield wiper issues. Now Toyota has issued another recall notice, but this time for far fewer vehicles.
The recall revolves around the engine valve springs in the 2013 and 2014 Tacoma, specifically those fitted with the standard 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine and not the optional 4.0-liter V6. The issue is that the valve springs are prone to cracking and breaking over time, and results from improper maintenance of the manufacturing equipment used by one of the two suppliers that outfit Toyota with the components in question.
All told, some 4,000 vehicles will be subject to the voluntary recall, the owners of which will receive notice by mail. If you think that could be you and want to get a jump on the problem, you can read the announcement below and call Toyota yourself.

Toyota Harrier gets a whale of a facelift [w/video]

Thu, 21 Nov 2013

Historically, the Toyota Harrier has been a doppelgänger for North America's Lexus RX - at some points, it was little more than a badge-swap and a few options away, at least aesthetically. That appears to be changing with this just-revealed new generation at the Tokyo Motor Show.
That's because this two-row, five-seat Toyota is in possession of a bold new look, dominated by a jutting, baleen-like grille edged in chrome, along with new headlamps and fascia. The greenhouse has likewise been revamped and gotten more pointed at the rump, which has new taillights, a resurfaced tailgate and a faux rear diffuser. Were it to be ported over to North American Lexus dealers intact, the Harrier's look would be jarring in light of the brand's spindle-grille-based design language, so we suspect that if the RX gets any of these updates (it was just refreshed for 2013), it will strike out on a different path visually.
Unlike the US RX, the new Harrier will rely on smaller-displacement four-cylinder engines, namely a 2.0-liter paired with a continuously variable transmission or a 2.5-liter four backed up by an electric motor. We'd like to see a smaller-displacement option for the US RX (it presently runs with 3.5-liter V6 engines in both gas-only and hybrid guise), but suspect it won't arrive until the next all-new model.

Toyota launches new Noah, Voxy minivans in Japan [w/videos]

Wed, 22 Jan 2014

We know the feeling: you've got what seems like your whole bloodline to transport, and maybe not quite two of every living kind, but a household pet or two. So you're going to need something big to fit them all. Something like a Toyota Sienna ought to do the trick. But if you live on an Asian island that, we're sorry to say, has been known to flood in what can only be referred to as an Act of God but whose vehicles fall short of such biblical proportions, at least you can get one with a suitably biblical name. (And an awesome one at that, if this writer may say so.)
That would be Noah, the name Toyota gives to its JDM minivan. It's also known as the Voxy, and Toyota has just revealed new versions of both. Previewed in concept form at the recent Tokyo Motor Show, the production Noah and Voxy have been completely redesigned. The boxy form allows for as many as eight seats and a low, flat-folding cargo floor to accommodate your whole clan and all the stuff you could buy from Uniqlo and Muji with the roomiest interior in its class.
Toyota is offering both with a variety of gasoline and hybrid powertrain configurations driving the front wheels or all four through a continuously variable transmission in a range of trim levels starting from 2.18 million yen (equivalent to $20,952 at today's rates) to 3.4 million yen ($32,694). The Voxy is sold through Toyota's network of Netz dealerships across Japan, and the Noah through its parallel Corolla dealers. Along with the pair of video clips and the high-res image galleries top and bottom, there are plenty of details in the press release below, where you can read more about the flexible seating arrangements and all the latest tech. Just don't expect to be reading dimensions measured in cubits and construction from gopher wood.
