1997 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80, $7800
171k mi, Front/Rear LOCKERS!
Stock, clean Carfax Florida street driven truck, no rust what-so-ever, the original body panels & Pearl White with Silver Blue trim original paint in great condition except for the fender flares are fading clear coat, (cheap and easy fix, that I may do.)
Tan on Brown Interior, front seats could use a recover on the bottom, but they are comfortable. 3 rows of seats, there is a bleach stain in the very back of the carpet. The Driver and passenger front seats do not move back and forth. The passenger rear window does not go down, the top of the steering wheel leather is worn, and the windshield squirter squirts the front and rear windows at the same time. Radio Antenna does not go up and down. Plenty of posts on how to fix these items here on MUD, just haven't had time to address as they are minor and do not bother me.
New Front/Rear Brake Rotors with Ceramic pads, Fluids changed, wiper blades, Michelin tires with probably less than 2-3 oil changes on them, the rubber nips are still on the tires, matching spare. Cold A/C and Hot Heat. Newer Toyota Battery, air filter.
Original Window Sticker for $53k Lots of maintenance records, but not all, the truck was serviced at Panama City Toyota throughout it's life and sold new there then resold there a couple times.
Runs GREAT! Drives strait, stops strait, shifts good, quiet, smooth, plenty of power, 12.6-14.4 mpg, no taps, smoke or blow-by, oil stays clean throughout the 3000 mi changes but does have a very minor oil leak have not figured out where but it might drip 1-2 drops every other day, hardly enough to notice but I am OCD about leaks.
Not sure if the Head gasket or PHH have been done, unsure of birfs, but I am sure it would not hurt to over-maintain a Land Crusher with some Preventative maint but at this time I do not feel the need for it.
AHHHH the story goes, I bought this truck for my Mother for Christmas to have a larger vehicle than the PT Cruiser she currently drives (as we takes care of my disabled father and Grandmother...) The Landcruiser is easier for them to get into than the PT, but Mom is the driver and says it's too big, (even though she always drove my LC100 and loved it, so I thought she would like this) Now I have 3 vehicles... I like this truck alot, but I have my DD MPG car and my Troopy so, this has gotta go, along with my Troopy and the PT Cruiser, just gotta find a car Mom likes that works better for the family. LS430 maybe?
