I bought the cruiser in November of 2013 and have loved every minute of it. We have taken it on vacations throughout Oregon and Washington. We have pulled our camping trailer around with it. I ran it everyday in the last snowstorm we had in the area (yes I had to work while everyone else played). It has been a great truck for us and we will miss it. This was also my daily driver so it is no stranger to being used daily.

We intended on keeping it but my wife decided she wanted a vehicle that had a third row for taking other peoples kids around town. So the cruiser is the vehicle that gets to find a new home. 

Alright here is the breakdown of good/bad/ugly/etc...

I have taken it in for regular maintenance (oil changes and such). I have had the AC converted to a newer refrigerant. I put in a stereo with bluetooth (I drive a lot and once you get used to that type of system its hard to get away from it). I also replaced the stock antenna with a whip antenna that has a plug for a cb on it. The new antenna fits right into the old antenna whole so it actually looks like it belongs there. This means you can attach a cb and not have to add an additional antenna to the rig. I replaced the gas struts in the back (would not even hold the window open when I got it). I also redid the water lines in the back window (washer fluid) because they had cracked and were leaking fluid all over the inside of the back window door. 

The prior owner put a second battery into the back (fairly common addition if you intend to use it as an expedition rig/camping rig). He was also responsible for adding the second set of lights on the roof rack. 

Other than that the rig is stock as far as I can tell. The interior is clean compared with what I have seen of other rigs in the price range and it was by far the best under 10k when I bought it. The engine runs great and I have never had issues with power or starting. 

There are a few quirks of these rigs related to the fuel and temp gauges. Every so often you will find the fuel and temp gauges spike all the way to the red (temp) and all the way full on the fuel. It freaked me out the first time and I almost towed the vehicle but quickly realized that there wasn't really a temp issue. It is an electrical issue within the gauge. If you are truly interested there are blog posts out there about fixing/changing the gauges to make it less annoying. Overall the fuel gauge shows full when full. then runs down to empty by the time you run through about half the tank.

The transmission has a tendency to drop into reverse hard on occasion. I am not sure why this happens but wanted to give full disclosure on anything I noticed wrong with the truck. 

Rust. This truck has a very clean exterior (not perfect by any stretch of the imagination). It does have a crunched spot on the rear passenger side. You can clearly see it in the photos. There is almost zero rust on the exterior and very little underneath the truck. 

The rack, jack and lights all stay. I also have a Hi-Lift recovery bag with a bunch of fun toys inside (it stays with the rig)

I have a clean title in hand. I will not ship the car and I don't even care if you mom really needs a land cruiser. I only accept cash. I won't take a check or anything similar. 

I hope it goes to a good home; someone that can take it out and play often.

Forza Horizon 3 car list keeps on truckin'

Tue, Aug 9 2016

We've covered three weeks of car reveals for Forza Horizon 3, and this time we get a better look at the trucks, SUVs and other off-roaders you'll be able to use to explore Australia. This week's list kicks things off with two of the most legendary off-roaders in the world, the Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser and the Meyers Manx. They have different purposes; the FJ40 is for tough trail work and the Manx is for some light-hearted beach fun. But no one could deny the cultural importance of either. And both should be a blast in Horizon 3. In addition to this pair of classics, players will have a chance to get behind the wheel of both a race version of the Ford F-150 Raptor and its closest rival, the Ram Runner. And when traditional vehicles start to get boring, why not take out a full-blown Baja racer such as the Penhall Cholla or the Rockstar energy drink version of the little Polaris RZR XP 1000 side-by-side? Forza Horizon 3 is shaping up to have one of the most diverse car lists in a racing game in a long time. There are still cars left to be revealed, so stay tuned for further installments and see this week's full list below. 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2002 Ferrari 575M Maranello 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth 2013 Ford Focus ST 1973 Ford Escort RS1600 1971 Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase III 2014 Ford Fiesta ST 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Race Truck 1954 Jaguar XK120 SE 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 1986 Lancia Delta S4 2009 Lexus IS F 1957 Maserati 300 S 1994 Mazda MX-5 Miata 1967 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series 1971 Meyers Manx 2012 Mini John Cooper Works GP 1998 Nissan R390 1979 Opel Kadett C GT/E 2011 Penhall The Cholla 1971 Plymouth Cuda 426 Hemi 2015 Polaris RZR XP 1000 EPS Rockstar Edition 2013 Ram Runner 1993 Renault Clio Williams 1990 Subaru SVX 1979 Toyota FJ40 2005 TVR Sagaris 1990 Vauxhall Lotus Carlton Related Video: News Source: Playground Games / MicrosoftImage Credit: Playground Games / Microsoft Auto News Toys/Games Ford RAM Toyota forza exclusive ford f-150 raptor forza horizon forza horizon 3 toyota fj40 meyers manx

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.

Lightweight Toyota GT86 spotted on Nordschleife with carbon panels, upgraded aero

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

We've seen (and frankly reported on) so many rumors of more powerful and performance-focused versions of the Subaru BRZ, Toyota GT86 and Scion FR-S at this point that haven't materialized that, at this point, we're almost tired of them. Almost. But what we have here was enough to pique our jaded interests as only a carbon-bodied sports car on the Nürburgring could do.
What we're looking at is, well, we don't quite know, to tell you the truth. What we can tell is that it's a Toyota GT86 (Scion FR-S for us) wearing new wheels and a carbon-fiber hood, roof, racing-spec rear wing and subtle lip spoiler. The vents in the hood indicate that the prototype in question could be packing an upgraded engine to go with the lighter body panels and upgraded aero, and the interior (at least as far as we can see) looks pretty well stripped out.
The right-hand drive configuration tells us this is either destined for former territories of the British Empire or for the racetrack. Considering the ride height, full glass and apparent lack of roll cage, our money's on this prototype is being developed for the Japanese Domestic Market, where Toyota badges the sports car simply as the 86. We can always hope, though, that some version makes it into Scion showrooms in North America... we just won't get our hopes up too high.
