HI,

Selling my beloved 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser - Gold Package with roof rack, brand new towing package & all the options possible for this Land Cruiser. It is the Gold Package most easily identified by the Gold trim hood emblem and rear gold lettering.
I am 2nd owner, bought in November, 2004 from Vasser Chevrolet in Napa, CA.
Meticulously well maintained by my good friend Randy, chief mechanic at Toyota Vallejo.
I bought truck with about 78k miles on it and over time she now has 282k miles. The truck received complete reconditioning in spring of 2011 with more then 12k in parts and labor to truck, sparing no expense and had truck running better then when I first purchased it in 2004!
The Land Cruiser is the best SUV, period. Safe, splendid on long drives, I cannot say enough about Land Cruisers.
The truck will always take care of its owner providing basic maintenance is done. Currently, this truck needs a new right front axle assembly.This was the last bit of under carriage stuff to do as shocks, struts etc are all new from 2011.
New owner will also want to install a new battery down the road. There are no dents, there is some slight peeling of the clear coat finish on hood, although hardly any.
The truck has never been driven off road or towed anything but is built very well for these things.
My driving consisted of commuting to and from work 4 times a week and once a week drive with my daughter to take her to dinner. The Land cruiser is very safe and my family very precious to me. Addtionally, the Bay Area commute down I-80 is gentle on vehicles, some of the people out there driving today are reckless and the Land cruiser greatly reduced my apprehensions. It is a big, solid and heavy truck but drives like a BMW 6 series I used to own long years ago!
She has been driven to and from San Diego to visit family and this is where the Land Cruiser really shines. She does better on gas mileage on highway then the dealership said. Moreover, she is really meant to cruise the land and would fly in and out of the grapevine with ease. The power of this truck is amazing and it handles exceptionally well. It is a luxury truck, but then really good at what trucks are supposed to do.
I am selling my Land Cruiser for only one reason due to chronic health problems that became life threatening and have suffered the financial troubles that go with serious illness. I have to get thru this bump in the road.
My very tragic loss can be someone else's gain. I know a great deal about these trucks, alot more than car dealers and my friend at Toyota taught me so much about the Land Cruiser.
The Toyota Land Cruiser body type changed in 1998 and remained the same thru 2007. Toyota introduced a tft type GPS travel thing in the dash as option in 2001, made it standard in 2002. This is the exact same body used during same years for the Lexus 450, except that truck had some a softer transmission and some cosmetics to appeal to the luxury folks. Several Toyota folks told me in confidence though that the best Truck overall was the actual Landcrusier.
Anyhow, new owner would need to register and smog truck which I am certain she will pass.

New owner needs to install the right front axle assembly which top of line brand new factory part is less then 100$. Completion of this repair means truck can be driven anywhere, any season, tires are all weather and are 4 new Coopers, plus new Cooper spare.
Oh! Land Cruiser is Black with a light tan interior, has 3rd row seats which are carefully stored in my garage and has custom cargo floor liner as well as up front and rear seating floor liners. Has sun-roof as well.
Truck has heated seats, power windows, super cold air conditioning, rear air conditioning & heating, all the options, nothing spared.
Look up a Kelley blue book 1999 Toyota LC & toss in "very good" as condition with all options & you will know what you are getting.
This Land Cruiser is destined for a million more miles on current engine and transmission and also has 4 new tires, and I am not joking about the million miles!
Truck is in Fairfield, CA.

This is sold cash only OR certified cashier's check. As is, no warranty expressed or implied. No PayPal. I will provide incentive discount for buyer who knows the value of this truck offer and will need to tow it to your mechanic to complete right front axle assembly installation. Local pick-up only. Please feel free to have your mechanic, any local mechanic come by and give it a thorough go thru.

This is a really great truck I paid 25k, another 22k in financing :(, & I put another 20k into necessary maintenance, essentially over maintaining it.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Ultimate Edition

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Introduced at the end of 2006, this is the last year for the Toyota FJ Cruiser, the reincarnated FJ40-series Land Cruiser that will shortly journey to Takama-ga-hara, the Plain of High Heaven. In its first model year, we drove it to SEMA and found it, shall we say, coarse. It bobbled on the freeway and droned in the cabin, its boxy interior providing four bounce-boards for unpleasant frequencies. Tall mirrors helped one work around the eclipse of vision aft of the B-pillars, but navigating traffic required forethought and technique. Its turning circle was measured in kilometers. For the first two years of its life, it needed premium gas. It may have been fun to look at, but we couldn't wait to get out of it.
That's not the case anymore, and now the FJ Cruiser is poised to join a long list of vehicles that got better and better, then got axed.

Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort

Fri, 24 May 2013

Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.

Toyota discontinuing FJ Cruiser after 2014 model year

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

The Toyota FJ Cruiser is not long for this world. According to the manufacturer's own fleet website, the rugged FJ will be discontinued after the 2014 model year, with the companies final orders due in June of next year.
Toyota first launched the FJ Cruiser in 2006 as a 2007 model, and aside from minor year-over-year changes, it has not been substantially updated. The FJ is the modern successor to the original FJ40 Land Cruiser that Toyota produced from the 1960s all the way up through 1984, when the automaker decided to better focus on its larger, four-door Land Cruiser line. Currently, it uses a 4.0-liter V6 engine with either rear- or four-wheel drive, and is available with either a five-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission. Interestingly, word of the FJ's demise comes not long after Toyota's US boss, Bill Fay, reaffirmed his company's commitment to body-on-frame trucks in late July.
Also of interest, Toyota's fleet website states that the 2014 model year Prius range will have "minor updates," though it's unclear what those are as of this writing. When Autoblog reached out to confirm these developments with Toyota, spokesman Curt McCallister reminded us, "As is our corporate policy, we don't discuss future products beyond the present or upcoming model year."
