Blog - Words of Wisdom with Anderson-Weber | Dubuque, IA

As the world is slowly opening up more and more around us, the urge to get out on the open road is calling!

Is your vehicle coast-to-coast worthy? Would you feel safe hopping right in your vehicle and driving 1,000 miles? 

If you hesitated to answer or answered NO, don’t worry, we’ve got some tips that will help you. Check out our top things to check before heading out on the road.

 

Summer is officially over which means it's time to start thinking "Fall maintenance" for your Toyota.  It's never too early to make sure you're ready for life's hiccups and this is just one more way to make sure you're prepared.  Here are a few things to check over so you're not left out in the cold when it counts the most:

Spring has finally sprung for us in the good ol' Midwest and we're being graced with those April showers to bring May flowers. The good news is it's washing away the literal tons of salt spread on the roads over the course of the winter. The bad news is there is a good chance you vehicle took a beating during winter.  Did you know the entire month of April is Car Care Month? Well now you do!  What a perfect time to make sure your vehicle is in tip-top shape for the year!

Interesting fact:


 

Winter is FINALLY going back into hibernation, although we're not naive enough to think we've seen the last of the snow just yet. It is only March after all. With that said, it's time to start thinking about your Spring Car Care! Monday we posted a few tips direct from our service department on things to do, but here are a few more that you might not have thought of.

Let's face it, not too many folks out there actually enjoy the car buying experience. Sure, they LOVE when they get to hop in their new ride and leave the dealership, but what about everything before that? It's exhausting and most of all, it's time consuming. What if we were to tell you that we've taken a lot of that "wasted" time and compacted it into a much more simplified car buying experience? Here's how!

If you haven't been to visit us since this January, first of all, you're late on your vehicle maintenance... book that winter check-up here! And secondly, we've been under construction for what feels like an eternity, but we're getting to the final stages and we couldn't be happier!  Our showroom, cashier's office, and waiting lounge areas are nearly complete and now to finish up our service department improvements!

Did you know we now have a fully-enclosed service consultation area?

 

Welcome to this week's edition of What's Up Wednesday! With our service department still under construction (but not for much longer!), we wanted to introduce you to our Service Manager, Curt Martin! It's nice to put a face to the name of the man who helps our service department run like a Toyota - a well oiled machine!

 

Yes, we're a few weeks early with our Fall greeting, but the weather lately has us thinking ahead about inclement road conditions and the headaches that come with it. Which brings us to this week's What's Up Wednesday topic: Autumn Driving Tips.



Fall is a popular favorite season for any number of reasons! Halloween, sweatshirt weather, pumpkin spiced everything... you name it! It's also a season of change and for us lucky Mid-westerners, you don't have to be a Stark to know that Winter is coming.

Happy Hump Day!
