Feature Focus: The Camry's Quiet Ride

This week's post highlights the incredible interior of the 2014 Toyota Camry. While the new seats are perfectly refined, the more exciting part about this Toyota is its absolutely quiet ride.

Using sound-imaging instruments, Toyota pinpointed where road and engine noise was entering the cabin and took additional sound-absorbing measures to help create Camry’s whisper-quiet ride. The silence you experience in this Camry would make even the toughest librarians smile.

So if you need to get a new Toyota, we certainly recommend stopping by our California Dealership and take the new Camry for a test drive!

Have you ever traveled down a haunted highyway?

With Halloween just around the corner, we got to thinking about hauntings on roads across the globe. We've heard about hauntings at various locations like houses and businesses, but rarely have we heard about paranormal occurrences on eerie stretches of highway. Sounds like it's time for a ghost hunt!

After doing some initial research, we came across Clinton Road in Passaic County, New Jersey. So what is it about this road? It's a question that is on the minds of many. While nobody can seem to answer why weird things happen here, most can attest to what they are seeing.

If you visit the road at midnight, stop by the bridge at Dead Man’s Curve for a game of catch. While you toss pennies into the water below it's said the ghost of a young boy will toss them back. Some have also reported a gray wolf with red eyes stalking drivers from the bushes. Weird lights have also been seen flying in the sky and will draw your attention upward, away from the blood stains on the pavement.

This road is certainly not for the faint of heart. Regardless of your stance on the paranormal, it is a fact that there are definitely many unexplained things occurring on this scary roadway.

While driving on these roads can be a bit unnerving, buying a new car doesn't have to be a frightening experience. Stop by our Toyota dealership and take a new car for a test drive today!

Car Care 101: Wiper Blade Maintenance

Once you drive off the lot with your new Toyota, it's important that you do what you can to keep your vehicle in prime driving condition. For today's car care tip, we're looking at ways to keep your wiper blades working effectively.

When your windshield wiper blades get full of dirt and grime, they'll do more harm than good. To get them clean, make a solution of 1/4 cup of household ammonia and 1 quart of cold water. Gently lift the blades, and wipe both sides with a soft cloth or paper towel soaked in the solution. Then wipe the blades with a dry cloth before lowering them back into place.

This is a quick and easy way to ensure your blades and windows are staying grime free!  Stay tuned for more car care tips.
