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.
