1987 Toyota Land Cruiser Fj60 on 2040-cars
Creswell, Oregon, United States
This is not your standard 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60. -The original suspension has been replaced with 3/4 ton Chevrolet suspension, with new shocks, lifting the body 26'' off the ground. 33' tires. -To compliment the new suspension the stock inline 6 cylinder has been replaced with a 1985 Chevrolet 6.2L diesel. The new power plant gives the Land Cruiser a lot more power and better fuel economy than the original engine. This Land Cruiser gets 20-25 mpg, and is a blast to drive. The engine recently has been through and tuned by the local diesel expert shop, 'Oregon Fuel Injection' (700$ service). -The roof rack was custom built for the vehicle. -The sound system consists of a Sony CD player, 6x9 speakers and two Pyle 10'' sub woofers. Lanzar 2000 watt amp. -The original jack and tool kit are still in the vehicle. -The trunk area has been bed lined and has additional tie downs added to the floor. -Super straight body, only two tiny dents on passenger fender. Body is rust and cancer free. This is a southern California car, only spent last 4 years in Oregon. The original manual and a 6.2l manual are included, along with a stack of receipts.
The bad: - The clear coat is wearing thin, could use new paint job. (we are a custom shop, and if a new paint job is desired, we can negotiate a price to have the cruiser painted before pick up) -The drivers seat fabric is torn, both front seats currently have seat covers to help protect them. -Carpet is old and a little worn. -Tinting on the windows is scratched in some areas This is a super sexy rig, that is practical and fun to drive. It is one of a kind and will turn heads wherever you go. Don't miss out on this rare find. Here is a video so you can hear it run and watch it drive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pojmJbEvU3I&feature=youtube_gdata_player

NHTSA investigating 561k Toyota Prius hybrids for possible steering shaft defect
Mon, 25 Feb 2013The Detroit News is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will investigate some 561,000 Toyota Prius models for potentially defective steering shafts. The affected hybrid models are from the 2004-2009 model years. The story indicates that NHTSA is weighing whether or not to grant a defect petition, which claims that Toyota incorrectly assembled the hatchback's steering linkage.
As of this writing, there is no recall. However, a recall based on the Prius steering shaft would be the third related to steering issues for the model since 2006. Seven years ago, Toyota recalled 170K Prius models for potential cracking of the intermediate shafts, and in November of 2012, the automaker recalled 670K units to replace the steering shaft extension assembly.
We'll be monitoring NHTSA's signals to see if this investigation turns into a full-fledged recall. For now, stay tuned.
Ford F-150 bumps Camry from top of Cars.com American Made Index
Tue, 25 Jun 2013With July 4th just around the corner, what better time could there be for Cars.com to announce that the Ford F-150 is the Most American car of 2013? This may be especially true since it was the Toyota Camry, a car produced by a company based in Japan, that had held the top spot from 2009 to 2012.
Cars.com compiles its Most American list by considering the amount of parts each vehicle uses that come from America, where it's final assembly takes place and how many units per year are sold. "While the assembly point and domestic parts content of the F-150 didn't change from 2012-2013, vehicle sales are responsible for bumping the F-150 to the top spot," according to Patrick Olsen, Editor-in-Chief of Cars.com.
As far as automakers go (as opposed to individual models), Toyota retains the top spot it held in 2012, with General Motors, Chrysler, Ford and Honda (in that order) rounding out the list. The motivation behind this list each year, according to Olsen, is "to help car shoppers understand that 'American-Made' extends beyond just the Detroit three" and because "a study we conducted in 2012 indicated that 25 percent of shoppers surveyed preferred to buy American."
Toyota recalls slew of models for possible airbag calibration defect
Mon, 28 Jan 2013Toyota is recalling sixteen models from the 2009 to 2013 model years over a potential issue with passenger seat airbag calibration. In spite of the large number of different Toyotas covered by the recall, just 3,235 units are included. These were vehicles installed with accessories like leather seat covers and headrest DVD systems by Southeast Toyota Distributors, and during the modifications the passenger seat occupant sensor system might not have been calibration tested. If the sensors aren't set up properly, the passenger airbag might not work as it should.
Affected models include: Avalon, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Corolla, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Prius, Prius V, Rav4, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra and Venza. Scroll down for the relevant model years for each.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall will begin this month. Southeast Toyota will inform owners, at which time they can take their Toyotas to dealers for testing and repair. The complete bulletin from the NHTSA with more information is below.
