Your local Toyota dealership is undoubtedly


the best place to begin shopping for a new Toyota.

models first hand, and if you like, have a chat
with one of the sales staff about your car-buying
needs. They can provide just the kind of nononsense answers new car and truck shoppers
need to help them arrive at an intelligent buying
decision.

Toyota salespersons do much more than


sell new Toyotas. They're Toyota information
experts, trained to help new car shoppers solve
t heir car-buying problems. You'll find them
loaded with facts and figures on things like
model selection, fea t ures, options, prices, tradeins, servicing, warranties, a nd just about anything else you might want to know about Toyotas.
So next time you have a question concerning your new car or truck purchase, or if you
just want to have another look at the new
Toyotas-drop by, or just call your local Toyota
dealership. You'll find them waiting to serve you.

Toyota service departments are well


equipped and efficiently run, with a broad assort1nent of tools, many designed specifically for
work on Toyotas.
Toyota service technicians, too, are specially schooled and trained in t he finer aspects of
Toyota service techniques. Many have gone on
to achieve certification by the National Institute
