1987 Toyota Land Cruiser on 2040-cars
Hartwick, New York, United States
For more details email me at: alainaaddiprima@ukboss.com .
I am selling my FJ60 - I have owned it for 2.5 years and it’s time for something new. At the time of purchase i
was building this truck for work - A nice looking Urban Cruiser that has enough room for transporting gear for my
business. I currently commute to work now and do not need a commuter car/truck anymore. I purchased the FJ from a
Doctor in NYC. He had it garaged during his ownership. Right after purchase i sent the truck to Cruiser Solutions
in NH to take care of the necessities and give it a once over - Lockers were not working, Power Steering was spotty
and i also had them install the H55F. Once the truck was back, i sent it to Steinway Auto body in Astoria for a
complete respray - Interior was gutted, Windows and trim all taken off. I went with Cement Grey from the new FJs
for that Restomod Flair. Afterwards, Sean from Mitsiwa Auto Custom redid the entire interior. It came out great.
I loved the look of FJ60/62s without bumpers so i looked until i found Stan’s(HFS4x4.com) custom bumpers. Little
by little i replaced everything else - the AC compressor, Carburetor needed a rebuild, Exhaust Manifold was leaking
as well as cracked headers.
A lot of time and money went into the car and it shows. The truck runs great both on and off the highway. It
cruises at 60-80mph like it should.

Toyota settles first wrongful death suit related to unintended acceleration
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Toyota's sales seem to have rebounded from the unintended acceleration issues from 2009 and 2010, but the automaker is far from done dealing with this situation. Following a settlement worth up to $1.4 billion for economic loss to affected vehicle owners, Toyota has settled rather than going to trial in a wrongful death lawsuit stemming from an accident in Utah in 2010 that left two passengers dead. This isn't the first case in which Toyota has settled, but it was the first among a consolidated group of cases being held in Santa Ana, CA.
According to The Detroit News, this case was scheduled to take place next month, and it was for a November 2010 incident in which Paul Van Alfen and Charlene James Lloyd were killed in a Camry when, based on findings by the Utah Highway Patrol, the accelerator got stuck causing the car to speed out of control and hit a wall; the terms of the settlement were not announced.
The article says that while Toyota will settle on some cases, it doesn't plan on settling on all of them as it still wants to be able to "defend [its] product at trial." This will probably be the case in suits claiming that software for the drive-by-wire accelerator was the cause of an accident in a Toyota or Lexus vehicle. The question of whether or not the electronic accelerator played any role in this problem has been a hot-button topic since the beginning. Toyota has issued recalls in the past to attempt to prevent unintended acceleration caused by trapped floor mats and faulty accelerator pedals, but it also says driver error was to blame in some instances.
Toyota confirms i-Road electric trike for production
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The wacky, three-wheeled Toyota i-Road we saw in Geneva earlier this year will be heading to production. But before you run down to your local Toyota dealer looking for one of these all-electric "personal mobility" vehicles, chances are, you'll never actually see one unless you visit Japan.
Announced at the Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC) expo last week, Toyota said that the i-Road would be used as a part of the Ha:Mo car-sharing system in Japan. Weighing in at around 661 pounds, with a 28-mile-per-hour top speed and a two-passenger seating arrangement, the i-Road seems more like a fully enclosed scooter than a car, but it does offer a 30-mile driving range and has a nifty articulating front suspension that leans into corners. As for Ha:Mo, Toyota says that the number of cars in the program will increase from 10 prior to October 1 to 100 by the middle of this month, and the number of stations will almost double from 13 up to 21. Toyota has more details about the car and Ha:Mo in the press release posted below.
Toyota sells off Tesla shares, too
Fri, 24 Oct 2014The incredible rise of Tesla's stock price has done little to now stop two major shareholders from ditching their stake in the American EV manufacturer. First, Daimler, parent company of Mercedes-Benz, ditched its four-percent stake, and less than a week later, Toyota is doing the same thing, selling off an undisclosed bit of its Tesla investment.
The move comes as Toyota winds down sales of the RAV4 EV, which gets its batteries and electric motor from Tesla at the company's Fremont, CA factory.
"We have a good relationship with Tesla, and will evaluate the feasibility of working together on future projects," Toyota spokesperson Kayo Doi told Bloomberg via email.
