1996 Land Cruiser Super Charged Overland Expedition Vehicle Fully Built on 2040-cars
Flagstaff, Arizona, United States
I have made a website dedicated to this truck full descriptions and photos. Please visit expocruiser.info/expo/Expo_Cruiser/Home.html The roof top tent is not pictured on some of the photo's but does come with the sale of the Land Cruiser. Please look at the above website for full details and pictures. I have owned the truck since 02/06/02. I am the 2nd owner. I bought it from our local Toyota dealership right here in Flagstaff AZ. with 60,000 miles on it, it now has 176356 miles on it now.I have kept perfect maintenance records and only used Toyota parts where available for maintenance and repairs. This Land Cruiser has been extremely pampered and given the royal treatment its whole life. The truck 110% reliable and I would drive it anywhere. We just got back from the Grand Canyon on a 3 day camping trip and the truck performed flawless as usual. It has lived in AZ its whole life so their is no rust at all on this Landcruiser. My wife and I have been very careful drivers and we do not smoke, slam the doors, use smelly air fresheners or have kids or pets so the truck is in amazing condition. I have seen lots of 80 series Land Cruisers through out the years and have NEVER seen one in better condition. All fluids used for maintenance are top of the line synthetic. This land Cruiser needs nothing and all maintenance is current. It is ready to drive back home no matter where you live. I have done all the work on this Land Cruiser minus the head reconditioning, I pulled the head and took it to a machine shop for a complete go over and replaced all wearable items i could think of while I had the head off. I also had the stereo professionally installed. Other than that I have personally done all the work myself. I am not new to Land Cruisers as I have owned several FJ40's, a 60, a FJ55 PIG and have done all the work and custom builds on all of them. No expense spared on this very complete build. This truck is a real head turner and I constantly get thumbs up or am getting questioned about the rig. It looks amazing and is in very good condition. I have gone over this truck with a fine toothed comb and have replaced allot of things that were not broken for good measure. It lives in my garage, kept on a battery tender when not in use. Just changed the engine oil for the drive home with Toyota filter installed Feel free to contact me with questions you may have. I am not open to trades or parting out. 928-606-3867 Body 1.

Toyota says no one wants a Toyota electric car
Tue, Oct 28 2014It's no secret that Toyota doesn't really have a heart in pushing pure electric vehicles. The very limited Scion iQ EV project was killed before it went very far and the RAV4 EV project with Tesla was always only meant to produce just 2,600 units, but it didn't even get that far. In short, by all public appearances, Toyota just doesn't see the value of a pure EV. "No one is coming to our door asking us to build a new electric car." – Toyota's Craig Scott Toyota's public reasoning for the lack of a Prius C EV, for example, has often been that customers don't want to compromise on range and that hydrogen is a better bet. Company executives like Bob Carter say so over and over again. A new comment by Craig Scott, Toyota's national manager of advanced technologies, says that the Japanese automaker, give a slightly different spin on things. "Toyota actually favors fuel cells over other zero-emission vehicles, like pure battery electric vehicles," he told the Los Angeles Times. "We would like to be still selling cars when there's no more gas. And no one is coming to our door asking us to build a new electric car." This, understandably, has riled up a lot of EV supporters, many of whom have called on all automakers to sell more electric vehicles. After all, if Nissan can sell around 3,000 EVs a month in the US, couldn't Toyota do something similar? Are there thousands of people coming to the door asking for the fuel cell sedan that Toyota will start selling in the US next year? That answer is unclear, but it certainly doesn't look like Toyota is backing off its H2 bet any time soon.
Why Lexus shies away from plug-in hybrids
Mon, Apr 20 2015Lexus may have softened its stance a bit from the anti plug-in vehicle ads the Toyota luxury badge ran last year, but at least one executive from the company casts a pretty critical eye towards the concept as a way to cut both emissions and refueling costs. In fact, Lexus doesn't really buy the fact that buyers of plug-in hybrids are really looking to save both gas and the environment, Green Car Reports says, citing an interview at the recent New York Auto Show with Lexus executive Mark Templin. Templin also said hydrogen fuel-cell technology may be a better way to edge towards zero emissions. Templin decried plug-in hybrid technology because it adds weight to vehicles, which contributes to poor emissions figures in the process. He added that plug-in vehicle buyers are motivated more by potential tax credits and solo driving rights in high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes than cutting back on fuel use. Last summer, Lexus ran an supposedly tongue-in-cheek print ad poking fun at how long it takes to charge a plug-in vehicle and how using air conditioning can shorten a car's charging range. Last spring, Lexus had to backpedal from an anti-electric ad it ran that had serious mistakes about hydrogen infrastructure. News Source: Green Car Reports Green Lexus Toyota Hybrid PHEV
Toyota and Lexus recalling 235,000 hybrid CUVs and sedans over separate issues
Wed, 04 Sep 2013When it rains, it pours. Toyota has announced a pair of separate but voluntary North America recalls covering approximately 235,000 vehicles built between 2006 and 2011. The larger of the two recalls targets Toyota's hybridized crossovers, the Lexus RX400h and Toyota Highlander Hybrid. 133,000 units, including 2006-2010 Highlander and 2006-2008 RX crossovers are covered in the campaign. The other recall affects 102,000 IS350 sedans, IS350C convertibles and GS350 sedans built between 2006 and 2011.
With the CUVs, the faults in the parallel circuits of the transistors can cause heat damage in the inverter assembly, triggering an abundance of warning lamps and sending the vehicle into limp mode. The Lexus sedans are being recalled due to loose bolts on the variable valve timing controller. Detected by unusual underhood sounds on startup, the issue can cause the engine to stop while driving. The inverter issue is also triggering similar recalls in Japan and Europe.
At the moment, it's unclear if any of these issues have caused any crashes or injuries. Toyota says it plans to notify owners of the recall via snail mail. Additional information for owners can be found on the recall sites for Toyota and Lexus or by calling Toyota's customer service line, at 1-800-331-4331.
