How about a RAV4?

2011 TOYOTA RAV4

We have been selling a lot of these lately. Toyota RAV4 is one popular vehicle!

Maybe it's the size. RAV4 is a nice, compact sport utility vehicle. Big enough to haul five people (seven in some models) and their stuff, but it is not overpowering.

Maybe it's the versatility. There is plenty of room for passengers, but if you need to do some serious shopping, the seats fold down to make room for the some pretty large loads.

RAV4 comes in 4WD, perfect for North Dakota weather, and with gas mileage up to 26 mpg on the highway, it can even be an economical drive. Stop out to Cedric Theel Toyota Scion and check out RAV4!

Heavy Duty Tundra

Yes, you read that right - Heavy Duty Tundra. We have been customizing the rugged Toyota Tundra to handle the really tough jobs. Experience a smooth, half ton ride with three quarter ton pulling capability all in the durable, reliable Toyota Tundra. So, when you need a truck that works hard, is rugged, tough and dependable – check out Toyota Tundra from Cedric Theel Toyota.

Another fun Ladies Night

We sure had fun!

Catching up

Dan and his friend finished the ND500 Road Rally, but didn't place very high in the ranks. They did get a nice trophy for trying though! They also had a lot of fun and made a ton of new friends.

The Cedric Theel Toyota support vehicles helped the camera people take a lot of good photos and tons of video footage. The trailer for the video is awesome, and here is one of the best photos from the Rally..go Team Swagger!

The Swagger Team is on its way

Dan and his Swagger Team left the state early this morning and have already received their first speeding ticket. In case you just joined us, Dan is driving the Cedric Theel Toyota Swagger Wagon in the ND500 Road Rally which covers 2500 miles over 4 days.
The 50 vehicles left Mandan, ND early this morning and will finish in Jackson Hole sometime Sunday.

Here Dan and his friend share their training tips for the long haul. Go Team Swagger!

Road Ready for the Rally

Cedric Theel Toyota is proud to sponsor the ND 500 Road Rally that begins in less than 48 hours! (at least we think so, there is a lot of mystery involved in a Road Rally)

Our four Rally Support vehicles will be in the thick of it, assisting in videography and lots of other things associated with Road Rallies. The crew will be using the 4Runner and Tundra, with the windows that roll down in the back, to get some awesome shots.

Of course, we're not worried about breakdowns. These are Toyotas, known for their dependability and reliability. They can take anything this Rally throws at them, over every inch of the 2,500-mile course. Stay tuned as we keep you up-to-date on Dan and his Swagger Wagon in the ND500 Road Rally on our Facebook page!

Road Rally Comin' Up!

All of us at Cedric Theel Toyota are getting excited for the ND 500 Road Rally. 50 Cars will leave Bismarck on July 29th, travel for 2500 miles over 4 days and end up in Jackson Hole Wyoming.

Our very own Dan will pilot the Swagger Wagon. We feel the Swagger Wagon is the perfect vehicle for this event - built for comfort on the road, especially when he needs to take a break. Dan can then slip into the back and watch a movie, catch a few zzzzzzzzzzzs, have a snack.

Go Dan Go!

The Luxurious Toyota Avalon

Spacious interior. Smooth ride. Quiet. Just some of the words used to describe the new 2011 Toyota Avalon.

First, let's talk safety. Avalon comes standard with seven airbags. The Toyota Star Safety System includes Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control and an Anti-lock Brake System with Electronic Brake-force Distribution.

Then, there are the details - Avalon Limited comes with foldable power heated outside mirrors that are designed with an integrated turn signal. The driver and front passenger side mirrors even have an auto-dimming feature. Limited also features heated and ventilated front seats, rain-sensing windshield wipers and an available voice-activated touch-screen DVD navigation system. The Smart Key illuminates the interior as you approach the vehicle and allows you to unlock the doors and start your Avalon all without touching the actual key!

Luxurious, Spacious, Smooth and Quiet. The 2011 Toyota Avalon. Check one out at Cedric Theel Toyota soon.

Prius continues to lead the way

Just returned from a vacation in California and rented a Prius while we were there. As anyone who has been to southern California can tell you, traffic can get a little congested. There is a lot of starting and stopping, waiting, sudden accelerations and braking.....everything that contributes to getting bad gas mileage. (If you're driving a conventional combustion engine vehicle)

The Toyota Prius was phenomenol. We drove over 300 miles and used just 1/2 tank of gas. The fill before taking it back to the rental company was $17.00.

Cedric Theel Toyota has a  nice selection of Toyota Prius' on the lot. Come on out and take one for a spin. The ride is quiet and smooth - everything you've come to expect from Toyota.

If you need more information, The Daily Green has a great piece on the most fuel efficient cars and suvs. Check it out!

ND500 Road Rally

Coming up at the end of July, The Cedric Theel Toyota Swagger Wagon will be participating in the ND500 Road Rally. This fun event will take place over three days as the vehicles head to Denver, then Salt Lake City and finally Yellowstone National Park.
Dan and his friend will navigate the Swagger Wagon through back roads and alleys to try and capture some sort of trophy. Maybe they have one for "Vehicle disguised as a van, but really a Road Rally Warrior"

Here's our entry!

Check out Venza

We have a great selection of Venzas at Cedric Theel Toyota  right now.
The color on the one pictured is Barcelona Red Metallic.

We also have Blizzard Pearl, Classic Silver Metallic, Sunset Bronze Mica, Magnetic Gray Metallic and Black!

The first thing you may notice about the 2010 Toyota Venza is its sleek styling. It is very aerodynamic.

Step inside and experience the very roomy interior and a windshield with a very large view!

Venza is available in all wheel drive, perfect for our North Dakota winters.

Stop into Cedric Theel Toyota soon and test drive a Toyota Venza!

Don't forget Father's Day

Some Dads like to golf. We have these very cool golf balls and tees just waiting for someone to come and wrap them up for Father's Day!

We also have one of these very cool Toyota golf bags left. I think if you ask real nice, our Parts Manager, Jenny, will give you a nice deal on it. It never hurts to ask!

What's Jack Driving Now?

In March of this year, Cedric Theel Toyota started a promotion with a local radio personality - Jack Michaels. 'What's Jack Driving Now' has been going on for three months and he is having a great time with his Toyotas!

Jack started out with a Toyota Camry and was pleasantly surprised at all of the room the Camry has to offer. He filled it full of kids and kids' stuff and had room to spare!




Next, we supplied Jack with a Toyota Tundra. He mentioned something about feeling real 'manly' driving it. Of course, it's ok if women drive Tundras, too!

Jack is just dropping off the Rav4 he drove in May. That's good, because we are having a tough time keeping Rav4s in stock. They are our hottest vehicle right now. Jack especially liked the way the rear door opens. It swings to the side instead of the top, so it doesn't have the chance to come down and bump you in the head!

During the month of June, Jack will be driving a Toyota Sienna  - better known as the 'Swagger Wagon'. If Jack wasn't cool before, he will be when he gets done driving this vehicle! Yes, driving a van is cool again. Stop on out to Cedric Theel and check out the Swagger Wagon for yourself. It's cool.

Exclusive New Vehicle Unveiling

You are invited to an Exclusive New Vehicle Unveiling Wednesday, May 26th from 5:00 - 8:00 pm at Cedric Theel Toyota Scion. You will be able to test drive the all-new Toyota Avalon and Sienna. Plus, we will have competitive product on hand for comparison.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Ladies Night was a blast!
