You can't get a more capable rig. I personally drove this vehicle from Paris, France to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and am 100% confident in its abilities. These rigs are hard to find, especially in this type of condition. This Land Cruiser preformed flawlessly for over 11,000 miles of driving and now it's back in the states ready for a new owner.

We've spend over $1,000 and countless hours getting it ready to sell. We're selling it because the charity doesn't have another expedition planed and we really can't justify a Land Cruiser as a "company" car.

Background:

We purchased the rig last March for $14,000 and put an additional $3,500 into it getting ready for the expedition. We added a 2" Old Man Emu suspension lift and an ARB roof rack. We also went through the engine and drive-train, and other systems with a fine tooth comb to make sure they were in excellent shape. The LC drives very well and is quiet.

The video below shows the Cruiser in action:

You'll notice the only issues are cosmetic with a few bumps along the back gate -- one of our drivers backed into some shrubs/trees during a sand storm -- but that driver will remain nameless :). There is a 2" tear in the leather in the 2nd row seat when someone had to get to the last cold drink from the fridge and didn't realize the lid was up tight against the leather. Also there is some carpet staining on the rear lift door but other than that the rig is ready for another jaunt around the world. We've left the window decals in place because people really seem to like them. But they can be removed easily if desired.

Please call or text with any questions. Also, the tires in the picture are not included. The tires will be 4 90% new Big O AT (16") tires. If you want the 4 Toyo M/T tires as seen int the picture please add 1k to the price. Lastly, I reserve the right to terminate this listing for any reason and at any time.

2015 24 Hours of Le Mans live race report

Sat, Jun 13 2015

Check back regularly for more race updates every few hours. No, you don't need to stay up for the entire 24 Hours of Le Mans, but if you want to catch any of the action, Autoblog friend Reilly Brennan has a handy guide. And to keep you up to speed on the latest race events, we'll be posting live from Le Mans with regular race reports.Hour 1: Five laps in, Audi breaks up the three Porsches at the front, with the #19 919 Hybrid, driven by Nico Hulkenburg, passed by all three R18s. Hulkenburg eventually took back fifth position only to fall back again after the first pit stop. Meanwhile, clutch trouble kept the #23 Nissan GTR-LM in the pits until 15 minutes into the race. The other two Nissans were forced to start at the back of the grid after failing to the meet the 110 percent qualifying speed regulation. At the end of the first hour, just 7.5 seconds separated the first six cars. Then the factory team #92 Porsche GTE car caught fire, with the the #13 Rebellion P1 car taking frontal damage in the ensuing carnage. With the safety car out, the field is once again bunched up.Hour 2: The slugfest between Audi and Porsche continues, with neither side backing off. Halfway through the second hour the #7 R18 passes both leading Porsches for the top position. After another round of pits stops Porsche regains the lead until lap 30, when the Audi overtake once again and quickly pulls out a three-second gap. Nico Hulkenburg passes the other two Audis to join his Porsche teammates. At the beginning of the third hour it's Audi #7, Porsche #17, #18, and #19, followed by Audi #8 and #9. 33 seconds separates this group, with Toyota a minute back from the front car.Hour 3: On track the action refuses to stop. Although it's early, Audi is looking strong with the overall lead in the #7. What's more is that the Audis run four stints per set of tires, while the Porsche cars have to change rubber every third stop. But after a quick refueling, the lead R18 gets a tire puncture and comes back in 3 laps later, allowing Porsche to take over the top two spots. Then as the hour closes out a yellow flag causes traffic to bunch up and the #8 Audi gets stuck with nowhere to slow down. Driver Loic Duval dives for the side of the road but hits the guard rail and careens across the track, damaging the front and rear bodywork. The rest of the car is still intact, though, and once in the pits Audi replaces the entire front and rear of that in only three minutes.

Toyota Avalon celebrates 20 years with Touring Sport Edition

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Toyota Avalon may not have the sportiest image on the market. Heck, it doesn't even have the sportiest image in the Toyota lineup. But the Japanese automaker is out to fix that perception, at least a little bit, with the launch of the new Touring Sport Edition.
Announced together with some minor updates to the entire Avalon line - consisting primarily of enhanced safety and infotainment systems - the Avalon XLE Touring Sport Edition celebrates the 20th anniversary of Toyota's large sedan line. Setting this special edition apart are a black paintjob, HID headlights, LED daytime running lights, 18-inch alloys (similar in design to those on the Scion FR-S) and an interior decked out with perforated leather with dark blue trim... plus, of course, the requisite special badges inside and out.
Only 2,500 units will be offered with a $37,170 sticker price that puts it near (if not quite at) the top of the Avalon range that's capped by the $41,700 Avalon Hybrid Limited. Pricing has increased on most models by around two percent, and you can scope out all the details of the updates to the full range in the press releases below.
