Toyota Fj40 Land Cruiser 1981
I can’t begin to emphasize how excellent the condition is of the inside and out of this Fj40 . Not a screaming
fast, tear it up rig, but an unrivaled crawler in the outback. Never abused, it remains an icon of endurance, a
philosophy of engineering over-design, in this era of throwaway.
It is a very well maintained plug and play great running machine. With no hidden problems, this cruiser is ready
to go another 35 years. Starts, drives, and stops like new, as it should. The strength of this particular Fj40 is
how stock original and uncut it is. This cruiser has never been painted and is all there including the padded roll
bar,original dashpad with no cracks, plug in glove box light, original manuals, original touch-up paint, original
floormats with no holes or tears, crank up jack and tools, folding back seats, front seats that are in good
condition, heater console with cover and finally the original unmolested 6 cylinder high compression,
low-end-torque engine and its support hardware that was supplied when new in 1981. Original repair manuals for
engine, body and emissions are also included. Some manuals are in tattered condition but still usable. Under hood
emissions are there but not currently hooked up. The FJ also comes equipped with lockable front hubs, front disc
brakes,good tires, a classic safari roof rack, rear tow ball which is intended to tow and maneuver a small boat or
equivalent.
Cosmetically the detractors on this vehicle are the typical rust spots on the rear of the body. Since not
considered a structural problem, these “battle scars” were coated with rust stop and left as is.
The frame, springs, mounts and undercarriage are all in great condition. All front end steering linkage knuckles
were re-done not long ago as was replacement of the water pump.
If restoration is your goal you could add to this excellent original Fj40 foundation.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
Jim Lentz exposes more details behind Toyota's move to Texas
Fri, 02 May 2014Toyota's North American CEO Jim Lentz has already given us a rough idea of what prompted the company's surprise move to the Dallas suburb of Plano, TX from its longstanding headquarters in Torrance, CA. A new story from The Los Angeles Times, though, delivers even more detail from Lentz on the reasoning for the move, what other cities were considered and why the company's current host city wasn't even in the running.
Of course, one of the more popular reasons being bandied about includes the $40 million Texas was set to give the company for the move, as well as the state's generous tax rates. According to Lentz, though, the reason Toyota chose Plano over a group of finalists made up of Atlanta, Charlotte and Denver, was far simpler than that - it was about consolidating its marketing, sales, engineering and production teams in a region that's closer to the company's seat of manufacturing in the south.
"It doesn't make sense to have oversight of manufacturing 2,000 miles away from where the cars were made," Lentz told The Times. "Geography is the reason not to have our headquarters in California."
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
