HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE! Here are some tidbits we’ve been meaning to share for a while now…

Finally, Our Latin Friends Down South Get the Tundra

Toyota Tundras are now being shipped from the Tundra plant in San Antonio to other regions of South America, especially Venezuela. This is good news for South American truck lovers and for American Tundra lovers everywhere.

It’s nice to know that this American made truck is alive and well around the globe. Muy bueno!

Three hundred cars have been shipped in the last month and Toyota says that approximately 1,100 will be shipped each year going forward.

Toyota Tundra a Kelley Blue Book ‘Best Retail Value’ Winner

Each year Kelley Blue Book determines which cars in the market have the Best Retail Value amongst all the others, and just recently the official Toyota Open Road blog wrote about it.

The goal of this annual recognition is to identify vehicles that will retain value for a five-year period, which also happens to be the average amount of time an individual owns a vehicle.

In addition to the Tundra, other Toyota winners include the Tacoma for the compact pickup category, the Honda CR-V in the crossover category, and the Highlander Hybrid for the hybrid crossover category.
