Well, after 2 and a bit months a settlement of $10,500 was reached without the vehicle. They would not give me the option of buying it back. Back on the prowl for another vehicle.........

Well after a week, the wonderful people at the insurance company came back with a one time deal of $10000. Which ended today about three hours ago. Kind of weird that it was a one time only offer and it was only good for a couple of hours. I politely told them I can't make such a quick...

UPDATE..... Well after 7 weeks the insurance has decided that my Crusher has destroyed its last minivan and they are working on a total loss estimate for my truck. Friday the adjuster came back with an estimate of $8000 and I asked them if it was fair to trade in a mint Landcruiser for a...

Thanks for the information I will keep you posted on what the outcome is on this. I would imagine I will be driving this :censor: Ford Edge rental that has the worlds worst blind spots for a while!

Here is the picture of the offender. I believe that their 2010 caravan is in really bad shape due to the front passengers wheel wobble. Funny it is still loosing parts! Thanks for the insurance information. Will wait and see what they come back with. Am hoping that they look at comparables...

My bad on the pictures. Here are a few taken with the telephone. Did not get any pictures of underneath but it looked good. TGIF and almost :beer: time

Just my luck. Some dingbat decided to make a left hand turn into my lane the other week at an icy intersection, the laws of physics took place that say 'No two objects can occupy the same space at the same time'. Needless to say the passenger front of the mini van is missing a bunch of plastic...

Looked under the hood to fill up the reservoir with some windsheild washer fluid and I noticed that I have no AC Belt. I figure it must have snapped off this past winter. Does anybody out there know the toyota part number or the length if this belt? The vehicle is a HDJ81 with the 1HDT...

Sorry forgot the link.... 2008 Land Cruiser SUV - Australia and Yukon

Remembering when I saw Toyota up here in the Yukon last summer test driving their 2008 LandCruiser. Thought it might be wise to check out their website and see if they had any pics up. Snoop around and find the HDJ81!

Possible Match Judging by the rims it looks like it is a standard 100 series cruiser. The link below has all the specifications. Toyota LandCruiser 100 Standard - Hinterland

Still in the northern cold snap (-30 and colder for the last two weeks) and have had a strange thing happen when the cruiser is turned off and not plugged in. I can drive it for an hour and if I let it sit for 20 minutes there is nothing when I try and turn it over. I cycle through the glow...

Any of those dvds left? Would be interested. Sick and tired of the wrong parts being ordered for the HDJ81.

Being up north of 60 in Canada, I was curious on how peoples Cruisers were running in these frigid temperatures. Up in Whitehorse, it has been -45 for the past few days. I have found that the brakes are very stiff and letting the cruiser sit and idle (@1200 rpm) with the throttle pulled does...

Finally got the new alternator installed. Did not alleviate the above mentioned problems, but is charging consistently charging the batteries. Will check the rear defroster once winter has disappeared. Backwards thinking.... I have noticed that when the engine is idling and the power windows...
