1982 Toyota Landcruiser FJ60

Up for auction is "Hank the Tank". Let me tell you a bit about Hank.

I have owned this vehicle for about 4 years and currently drive it 3-4 days a week. In the years that I have owned this vehicle, it has started EVERY time without fail.

Here's what you need to know:

 

THE GOOD

- Runs Strong

- Engine Strong, clutch good, brakes good

- Does NOT burn oil!

- Interior in good condition

- Newer tires, tons of tread

- Comes with step bars and safari roof rack

- Carb rebuilt 2 years ago

- Fluids recently changed and tune up

- Oil changed regularly

- Radio works

- 4-speed, manual transmission

- 4WD works great, however never use it.

- I also have new emblems for the the driver side rear, "Toyota Landcruiser" and the tailgate "4WD" emblem.

- NO CRACKS on the dashboard!

 

THE BAD

- Small leak in the power steering (does not bother me, I simply refill every so often)

- Small exhaust manifold leak, so it rumbles a little (personally adds a bit of character!)

- Interior fan stopped working a few months ago. I believe its a blower motor relay (or blower motor). A/C was working great before fan went out.

- Typical tear in drivers seat (see photo)

- Carpet on tailgate has come loose.

 

THE UGLY

- There is some rust on the vehicle. Typical areas for a Landcruiser. I've identified key problem areas highlighted in green in the photo's. The frame is solid. (See photos)

Why Toyota Camry's Korea Car of the Year win is a big-time upset

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The 2013 Toyota Camry is officially the car of the year in Korea. The country's motoring press graced the Japanese sedan with the honor for the first time, officially marking a shift in prevailing Korean attitudes toward Japan and its products. According to industry analysts, buyers in the country are no longer simply choosing their purchases based on whether or not they're made in South Korea, but rather based on quality and personal choice. That's a big jump from a few years ago, when buyers viewed their purchases through a patriotic lens.
The Camry managed to edge out a total of 44 other cars, including hardware from both Hyundai and Kia, to become the first foreign vehicle to take home the Korea Automobile Journalist Association's Car of the Year award. As The Detroit News points out, just 10 years ago, domestic manufacturers held some 99 percent of the Korean car market. But a change in trade regulations has opened up the country considerably, and buyers now have access to a wide range of products from around the globe. As a result, Hyundai and Kia have countered by cutting prices in an attempt to keep their grip on the market.

Mazda3 sales off to rocky start despite massive critical acclaim

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Like just about every other auto publication we've seen, we loved the way the Mazda3 drove when we reviewed it a few months ago, but those glowing reviews apparently aren't helping its sales. The new compact may be falling victim to a sales war between the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, with the newcomer getting squeezed out by those with more established names and bigger marketing budgets.
According to Automotive News, Mazda3 sales have fallen every month since last August, and its sales are down 27 percent in the first two months of 2014. It certainly isn't helping that the entire compact segment is down five percent this year as well.
The biggest problem for the new model seems to be its price compared to rivals. Mazda is not offering the incentives that are on the hood of competitors. With the previous generation, the company offered more than $2,700 on the hood to move them out, but the current model only carries about $1,233 in markdowns, according to AN.

Toyota casts off in Ponam-31 motor yacht [w/video]

Sun, 12 Oct 2014

Some Japanese automakers focus purely on cars, while others dabble in all sorts of motorized transportation. Honda, for example, makes everything from motorbikes to jet aircraft. But while Toyota may be known principally for automobiles, it also makes a line of boats. And this is the latest.
The new Toyota Ponam-31 motor yacht is built around an aluminum hull with a flybridge and cockpit rear deck layout, similar to the Carver 32 on which this writer spent his childhood summers. It measures 31 feet overall and is powered by a pair of 3.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engines derived from the Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX 460) but marinized for nautical application. Toyota has even equipped its new Sports Utility Cruiser with such features as Drive Assist and a Virtual Anchor System.
Toyota expects to sell around 15 units of the Ponam-31 through its network of 49 dealers across Japan, with prices starting at 29,700,000 yen (about $27,500 at today's conversion rates). Scroll down below for a video, along with a press release, meant to show potential customers what's waiting for them.
