Thanks for the interest in my 1988 Landcruiser. For more information and pictures of this, or any other car/truck/Rover/diesel engine kit I have available, please type 'laughs and lashings' into a Google search, and my site will be the first page to come up. Give it a browse, and if you mention you saw this there, I'll knock $200 off your winning bid. I have a shop/ warehouse in Portland, Oregon and I import cool old diesel Land Rovers and other unusual cars from England as well as diesel engines for diesel conversions here. I recently went to the UK to buy stock/ a couple vehicles to send back to myself and this LandCruiser was one of the trucks that I have imported. TRUCK IS HERE AT MY SHOP IN PORTLAND, OREGON NOW.

    BEFORE YOU BID,   I ask that you read the entire ad, and by bidding on this truck you agree to all the terms and conditions I have described here.   If you bid, you agree to pay a $1000 deposit at the conclusion of this auction, and pay the balance owed within 5 days, no exceptions (unless you make other arrangements with me before bidding) .     If you can not collect in person but choose to have it transported, the truck must be paid in full before it leaves my possession.   I just took the truck to DMV and submitted all paperwork, the title will be mailed to me within 30 days.     If you have less than 10 feedback, you must contact me before bidding with your contact information like phone # or email address so I can contact you, otherwise I will have to retract your bid.   Sorry, but too many people with zero feedback have bid, won, and then disappeared and this is a very frustrating waste of time and money.    Thank you for understanding.   If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me here to discuss.   I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION AT ANY TIME For a local sale. The truck is for sale here, too - and I can pull the auction at any time. If you are serious about buying this I suggest you buy it now, and contact me to discuss. Now, onto the truck!

The truck is a 1988 Short Wheelbase turbo-diesel LJ70 . VIN# is JT1V0LJ7009031811, which the ebay robot does not seem to recognize as it is a non-US VIN#, so I was forced to enter '1980' as model year, but it IS A 1988!   It has low miles (128K) Has only 70K on its engine (Was replaced with a rebuilt @ 50K) , and it starts, runs, drives and stops as it should. It is plenty zippy and returns about 32MPG on a run, and 25-28 in town. Has Toyota 2L-T turbo-diesel engine. Has all the looks and feel of late 1980s ' Hi Tech' Toyota fare - You will recognize the switches, seats and looks. Yes, it is RHD - Amusing for a while, but you will probably find, like me, you always walk up to the wrong side of the truck to get in.

Only problems with the truck are that the wipers are running off of a separate switch (I can fix this for you easily enough) , and the power steering has a leaky hose (I can also fix this once here for you). Fuel gauge is inaccurate below a half-tank (Can also fix!) - That is it. Otherwise truck has been in daily use until I bought it.

The truck looks very good, is very solid. It does have a rust spot on one corner of the sunroof- please see the photos. There are a couple other small spots of surface rust to address if you want the truck to be perfect. THE FRAME IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT however, and there is none of the usual door rust/ inner fender problems/ etc,   truck is totally solid except for the areas mentioned. This truck was never available in the USA, and only just became eligible to import. It is all stock, and looks and runs great. If you are reading this ad, I assume you know what this is, and how rare it is to find one.

Truck has a clear Oregon title with 'diesel' indicated as fuel type. Guaranteed.   Will be able to register/ title and drive legally in all 50 states.

   There is a small tear in the driver's seat, as pictured.   Drivers side front fender flare has a smallish crack/hole in it (fiberglass- see photos please), and there are a few small stone chips on the front and in the back which have small spots of surface rust showing. Passenger side rear flare has a spot where a strap rubbed on the way here in the container. Easy to sand and paint, over all very nice-- headliner is perfect, tires are good. Sunroof works perfectly and does not leak. Drives very well!    Paint is original to the truck as is interior and mechanical layout, although engine is a lower-mileage fresh replacement.

    The last one of these I had at the beginning of the Summer sold quickly for 12000 dollars, I expect to get something close to that for this truck.   My other one was an automatic, and I would imagine the 5-speed to be more desirable.

Due to the mind-boggling amount of net bots, aspiring scam artists and people who just want to chat about cars, I ask that if you are interested in this truck (or any of the others I am selling) that you please include your phone # in your message to me, and compose a intelligent, polite and brief email. Emails like "Is it available?" or "I'll take it, call me" will be ignored. I also ask that you only contact me/ bid if you are genuinely interested in buying a truck, have your finances in order, have your wife's permission, and can be polite and courteous.   You are welcome to call me at 503-810-4713 to discuss.

Please check my other auctions for more vehicles I am selling like the Range Rover LWB Turbo diesel, 1976 Land Rover FC101 Forward Control, and 1999 Discovery 1 300tdi/ automatic conversion. Always looking for a nice Citroen, too - If you have one you would like to do some trading with I would give credit towards this truck...

Thank you in advance -

2013 Toyota RAV4

Tue, 16 Apr 2013

A Nicer View Than Ever Of Middle Of The Road
When we had our first shot behind the wheel of the 2013 Toyota RAV4, the overall judgment from Managing Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski could be summed up in a sentence along the lines of, "Eh, not bad." The truth is that the compact crossover segment, now filled with not-so-compact offerings, is as cutthroat as any in the industry these days. When a heavyweight player like the RAV4 comes to market with a new generation, it is not at liberty to start from a clean sheet, lest it throw cold water on a vehicle that sells tens of thousands of units globally every month. Like De La Soul says, "Stakes is high."
If the choices in the marketplace were still largely limited to the Honda CR-V, as was the case when this market niche was green, the Toyota offering might actually seem like the exciting choice. But with new players offering better dynamic thrills (Mazda CX-5), cool turbo motors and fancy technology (Ford Escape), or even crunchy cred (Subaru Forester), the small crossover shopper is really spoiled for choice in 2013.

Toyota's Bob Carter says far fewer stations needed in shift from gas to hydrogen

Thu, Feb 6 2014

Toyota's Bob Carter has been talking about green cars for years, but it's only been recently that his comments have really caught widespread attention thanks to his disparaging remarks about electric vehicle supporters like Elon Musk and Carlos Ghosn and optimism about hydrogen. Speaking at the opening of the Chicago Auto Show this morning, Carter said that Toyota has claimed the "pole position on CAFE," thanks to its deep hybrid bench. The company's green car cred will continue to grow because of its upcoming hydrogen fuel cell car, due out next year. Carter is relentlessly optimistic: "I truly believe fuel cells will fundamentally change how we feel about transportation," he said. The reason, Carter said, is that a hydrogen infrastructure will be easier to install than people think. He referenced a study conducted by the University of California (which we've heard about before) that found that California would only need 68 hydrogen stations to refuel the roughly 10,000 H2 vehicles that Toyota hopes to sell in by 2016 or so. That's a lot more than the nine that exist today, but the state has already approved funding for 20 new stations by 2015 and then up to 100 by 2024. Then he said this: "If every vehicle in California ran on hydrogen, we could meet refueling logistics with only 15 percent of the nearly 10,000 gasoline stations currently operating in the state." "We could meet refueling logistics with only 15 percent of gasoline stations currently operating in CA" - Bob Carter This made us wonder: if the refueling time and range are roughly equivalent between hydrogen and gasoline – Toyota's hydrogen car is supposed to be able to go 300 miles on a five-minute fill-up - then why has the market decided that there should be 10,000 gas stations in California and why would 1,500 be sufficient for hydrogen? "If the locations are optimized," he said, "we don't need 10,000 stations." For example, at major intersections, instead of three gas stations, you'd really just need a single hydrogen one. "There are a lot of questions about the infrastructure, but it's coming. ... It's a hurdle that we've got to climb but it's not as steep as some may imagine." Toyota's Mike Michaels, the national manager, media and public affairs at Toyota Motor Sales, then stepped in to point out that there are gas stations closing and admitted that there might be too many gas stations in California.

Toyota FCV Concept comes one step closer to reality

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

When Toyota first conceptualized a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle for mainstream Americans to drive, the initial response was pretty skeptical. Still, through relentless engineering and solid product after solid product, Toyota has built the Prius brand into the dominant force in the hybrid car market.
Something like that plan of attack is what the Japanese company is preparing for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as well, and that attack is seeing a critical salvo fired today with the debut of this FCV Concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Though there's nothing substantive to be said about rumors of a 300-mile range or a sticker price around $50,000, the FCV concept does offer a few technical details. The sharp-beaked concept makes use of two high-pressure hydrogen tanks and boasts a power output density of three kilowatts per liter.
