A 1985 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 with 215,376 miles was listed for $29,900 by Garage Kept Motors. The listing is now marked Sold, so that's the last asking price, not a confirmed sale.

215,376 miles — nearly 346,000 kilometers — and it barely dented the price. This 1985 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 held onto an asking figure of almost $30,000. Michigan dealer Garage Kept Motors had listed the SUV for $29,900. There's a catch, though: a fresh check by Tarantas News found the listing already marked Sold. So $29,900 is the last asking price — not a confirmed transaction amount.

This is the FJ60 with the 4.2-liter inline-six 2F gasoline engine, a 4-speed manual, and full-time four-wheel drive. According to the listing, the VIN is JT3FJ60G1F1132022. Before the sale, the differentials were rebuilt, and the truck got new shocks, Pro Comp wheels, and 31-inch BFGoodrich tires.

The price matters beyond the sticker itself. CLASSIC.COM currently pegs the FJ60 market benchmark at around $32,300, meaning this high-mileage example was priced roughly 8% below the family average. So 346,000 kilometers didn't turn this Toyota into a cheap “old truck.” The collector market increasingly cares about a specific vehicle's condition and history, not just the odometer.

Interest in old Land Cruisers already supports its own industry: body panels for classic Toyotas are back in production. Meanwhile the model line itself is heading in a completely different direction — Toyota is already testing a possible electric Land Cruiser. Against that backdrop, the FJ60 makes an especially clear case for what built the model's reputation in the first place: simple mechanicals, easy repairability, and the ability to survive enormous mileage.
