It should come as no surprise that whenever a list is released that details any positive attributes or features of various automobiles that Toyota would be well represented. Such is the case again as two of its stalwart vehicles were recognized as among the best models to lease. more Marianna Toyota is proud to carry these, as well as all of the other innovative and leading products that the Japanese automaker offers. Here is a closer look at the Camry and Rav 4, along with a little bit about what makes them so attractive to lease: Camry It goes without saying that the Camry is the flagship vehicle of Toyota and has been for as long as anybody can remember. The reason it became so prevalent in the first place is that it offered a reliable alternative to the American-made sedans of the 1970s and 1980s that were breaking down at 100,000 miles. Its popularity and longevity make it a low-risk lease option. Rav 4 The ability to travel comfortably down the highway or take a slight detour for a little off-road adventure has kept the Rav 4 at the top of the compact SUV market for years. It has proven to be one of Toyota’s most endearing models. So, to check out these highly-rated lease options from Toyota, or if you want to take a look at any other models or even a great inventory of pre-owned vehicles, the helpful automotive professionals at Marianna Toyota will be glad to show you around their lot. They are located at 2169 Pennsylvania Ave in Marianna, FL 32448. If you can’t stop by in person, you can still reach them by phone at 850.526.3511. Whether it’s inventory, trade-in, financing, servicing, or anything else to do with owning a vehicle, these folks are the best.

Good news for Toyota fans: AutoTrader has awarded the 2019 Toyota RAV4 one of the Best New Cars awards for the 2019 model year. This prestigious award is only awarded to vehicles that meet or exceed AutoTrader's strict criteria. Marianna Toyota is proud to sell the award-winning RAV4 to our customers. If you're in the market for a new SUV, consider these points about the RAV4. more The RAV4's engine allows for powerful driving, even in less than optimal driving conditions. The 4-cylinder engine boasts 26 mpg for city driving and 35 mpg for highway driving (as estimated by the EPA). With 203 horsepower to boot, the RAV outclasses other SUVs in both engine power and fuel efficiency. One of the biggest pluses the RAV4 gets is its many automatic, smart-technology safety features that come standard. The rear-view camera gives you the best possible view of what's behind you while you're still sitting in the driver's seat. Automatic high beams activate when sensors detect poor lighting conditions while you drive. The driver drowsiness monitoring system and automatic emergency braking work in tandem to keep you alert and safe while on the road. All of these features work together to boost your awareness as a driver while offering preventive measures against accidents. Perhaps the most powerful tool in the RAV4's tech arsenal is its front-mounted display monitor. Besides showing basic information, such as speed, travel direction, and temperature, it also gives you access to the vehicle's cameras, providing you with a detailed look of the surrounding area far and wide. This is especially useful with the 360-degree parking camera, which shows a recreated display of your surroundings to help you in numerous difficult driving decisions. Safety and efficiency are what the 2019 RAV4 are all about. If you'd like to learn more about it or other Toyota vehicles, reach out to us at Marianna Toyota.

Minivans are not especially known for being 'cool'. The stigma associated with minivans has existed since the concept first arose, but there have been efforts in recent years to push back on the notion that a minivan can't have an edge. more Toyota seems poised to tackle this problem with the unveiling of a new Nightshade edition of its venerable Sienna minivan line. The Sienna nameplate has never had an issue with sales, selling well over 50,000 units last year, but removing the stigma will go a long way towards competing against the burgeoning crossover segment. Officially the 2020 Toyota Sienna SE Premium Nightshade Edition, this package provides aesthetic enhancements to the exterior of the Sienna. By blacking out the shinier bits, the Sienna picks up an edgy masculine vibe. A black mesh grille, door handles, and mirror caps adorn the exterior, while an all-black interior grants it an undeniable style. Riding on 19-inch wheels that have been given a gunmetal-finish, the Nightshade Sienna has a definitive swagger. All of these aesthetic changes come without any loss of the features that make the Sienna great to begin with. Three-row passenger seating can accommodate up to eight passengers and the 3.5-liter V-6 beneath the hood still beats out 296 horsepower and 263 lb-ft of torque. That's enough juice to tow 3,500 pounds when properly equipped. The cabin is replete with available amenities, including tri-zone climate control, JBL 10-speaker audio system and a 7.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay compatibility. If you are interested in viewing the Sienna's evil twin, we encourage you to visit us for a test drive. Marianna Toyota is located at 2961 Penn Avenue in Marianna. We'd love to show you around!

Even though water keeps us alive, flows our rivers, and fills our oceans, it can also cause damage. Unfortunately, Florida weather can sometimes lead to floods. To learn how to prevent and deal with vehicle flood damage, keep reading. more The first step in preventing car flood damage is parking your car under a cover. If you have available garage space or a covered parking spot, this can keep your car out of the rain. If you do not have a covered parking space to utilize, park on higher ground. Parking on higher ground can keep your car out of floodwaters when the water levels rise. If possible, try not to park under trees. When winds get violent, they can uproot trees or break off branches, which can fall on your vehicle. If you were unable to avoid a flood, you must deal with car flood damage. If your vehicle was in a flood, do not start it immediately. It is possible that your car has water in the engine compartment or exhaust system, and if the vehicle is started it can lead to total engine failure. Wait for things to dry out before starting the engine. Next, check the interior of your vehicle. If you notice water inside of your vehicle, start removing as much water as you can. Remove the seats, heat-unit, center console, and so on to remove water as effectively as possible and search for further damage. Using a wet/dry vacuum is one of the most effective tools to remove water from the floors and seats. If your vehicle was involved in a flood, take it to Marianna Toyota. Our service team can help repair water damage and get your vehicle running like new. To get in touch with our Marianna Toyota, you can call 850-526-3511 today!

Few vehicles provide such obvious value upon first glance as the Toyota Camry. A well-recognized household name, the Camry has proven its worth to drivers time and time again. more The 2019 Toyota Camry is the latest in this venerable line, offering multiple trims depending on your particular preference and taste. Beginning with a base 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that offers 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, the powerplant can be improved up to a mighty 3.5-liter V6 that exceeds 300 horsepower. If raw power isn't your thing, there are a wide variety of engine configurations available that will suit your particular needs. Power is nothing without responsibility, a fact that Toyota consistently recognizes with its treatment of safety as a top priority.

Even though Florida is known as the Sunshine State, we definitely see rainy days. The Florida rain can affect the way we drive, as well as the condition of our cars. Is your Toyota prepared for driving in Florida rain? Read on to learn more. more Your brakes are one of the most important parts of your car. When driving in the rain, it is crucial that your brakes are performing as well as possible. Get routine brake service to make sure things are running smoothly. Rain causes slippery roads and sometimes sudden stops are necessary. With properly functioning brakes, you can tackle driving on rainy days as safely as possible. Another important part of your car is the tires. Your tires come directly into contact with wet roads. Grip is important on rainy days. Regularly inspect your car's tires to make sure they aren't damaged, low on air, or losing traction. Heat, humidity, and rain can cause foggy windows. To remove the fog from your windows, you need to make sure your defroster is working. The front and back window defrosters are both crucial when it comes to visibility during rainy days. Without windshield wipers, it is impossible to see the road ahead when it is raining. Replace your windshield wipers whenever necessary to make sure you have a clear view on rainy days. Damaged windshield wipers can create streaks or smudges that reduce visibility. Rainy days are also typically dark days. To make sure you can see and be seen, maintain the quality of your headlights. When your headlights are shining bright, you can drive safely during rainy weather. Visit Marianna Toyota to get your Toyota vehicle ready for the Florida rain!

For first-time car buyers, the process for getting a new car can be daunting, especially when it comes time to part with your hard-earned money. However, getting to where you sign an agreement to purchase a car, or another agreement to get a loan for it, is only the start. Once you get the car home, the real business of properly caring for it begins. more Put Your Car on a Maintenance Schedule You must put your car on a regular maintenance schedule now. That’s especially difficult for those who are disorganized, or who procrastinate, but, it must be done. Consult your owner’s manual for what portions of your car need routine maintenance, at what intervals, and what must be done. That’s everything from checking the tire’s air pressure (your dashboard or a tire gauge), filling the windshield wiper fluid reservoir, checking transmission and radiator fluid levels, changing the oil and filter, checking engine belts, air filters, and transmission fluid changes. Know Your Owner’s Manual Besides telling what needs to be serviced, and how often (see above), it has other useful information. What kind of oil your car will take, and won’t. What kind of gasoline your car needs. What the different warning lights mean, and what you need to do when you see one. Your owner’s manual will also explain how formerly simple, but now complicated, things work, like your radio. There will even be instructions for how to use your spare tire. Plan for Emergencies Know how to deal with emergencies ahead of time, like a dead battery, flat tire, overheated engine, coolant leak, etc. Even if your plan is just calling a road service, make sure your insurance policy includes that, or at least know who to call. It’s also a good idea of how to know what to do after an accident. Keep your auto insurance card in your wallet. Would you like to know more about basic care? Our certified shop mechanics can help. Or, if you want to arrange a test drive of a new car, just contact us at Marianna Toyota!
