For Sale; Pennsylvania: 80/450 Landcruiser & Expo Trailer
Up for sale is our Landcruiser/Lexus LX450, (triple Locked ) along with its expo trailer. Why are we selling? We have decided to sell our home, give away most of our possessions and travel full time. At our ages comfort while touring full time has taken a top priority. ( think F-350, flatbed, 4WD Grandby )
Outlined in the downloadable PDF are detailed descriptions of the 450 and the trailer, a list of camp gear, a list of spare parts that are included in the final sale price, and more importantly a detailed history of all maintenance and repairs performed over the past 11 years. The 450 has basically been rebuilt minus the bottom end, the transmission and the differentials. Since the oil leaks and head was off it does not use any oil. The engine runs strong and the transmission is very healthy. It has no problem getting cranked up to interstate speeds while merging, even when fully loaded The 80 is a southern vehicle that has never seen a salt covered road here in Pennsylvania. There are very few things wrong with it, but I should point them out. There is a tiny bit of surface blemishes on the undercarriage, a cracked headlamp (I have a replacement) and a cracked turn signal lens ( thanks to the Dempster, the Denali, and the Robert Campbell Highways ) and one rust spot which is very difficult to see, but it does exist and over the years has been treated and not become any worse. I thought of painting the undercarriage, but that would look like I’m trying to hide something which I am not. There is a non visible dent on the upper portion of the tail gate when the top is closed. The pin lock on the tire carrier no longer drops to keep it open. These are all little things that are easily fixed. I was always more concerned with reliability, functionality and comfort.
The truck and trailer were purpose built for long range touring.
With the addition of the LRA 25 gallon auxiliary tank and the pair of jerry cans the 80 boasts a 550 mile range. The 63 qt ARB fridge and the ability to carry 36 gallons of potable water, a shower system and plenty of dry goods storage can get you off the grid and keep you off the grid until you need more food and water. One solar panel is mounted on the racks, the other is a briefcase panel to chase the sun.
The Tepui Autana 3 Ruggedized RTT is only 3 years old and is in perfect condition. The annex has been used only a few times and the floor pan has never been used. The Mr Buddy heater set up in the annex, keeps the chill off in really cold weather. The zipper on the RTT cover is broke, but we have found that it really isn’t necessary to even bother with the zipper.
Check out all the photos and download the PDF for a full summary. The price? That’s a tough one, but even with 380,000 miles, I would love to see 35k or the very best offer. I can send many more photos if you are interested. I cannot guarantee it, but there is no reason that the bottom end will not go another 200k or more. Thanks for taking a look.
