Born in Peoria IL and relocated to Cedar Rapids in 97’ with my wife Myrna, we started our family. Jasmine is now 26 and Jacob is 19 so you can imagine never a dull moment at our house. For pets, I have 2 aquatic turtles that beg for food whenever I am near the 55 gal tank that is stocked with several oversized Goldfish that now resemble Koi. My other pastime pleasure is cooking and thanks to my very thoughtful wife Myrna who bought me a smoker, I have acquired a love for smoked meats adding a layer to my waist line if you know what I mean. I have always been focused on taking care of customers and the last 19+ years I have spent in the car industry working on this 1 customer at a time. I take pride in having the privilege of running our internet team and being able to change the perception of how easy and hassle free a car buying experience can really be. A big THANK YOU to all my past customers and look forward to assisting all the future ones.

Tina... We really appreciate the kind words and very happy to have you apart of our Toyota family. Buying a car should not be stressful and when I'm at the helm it will stay the same as you both experienced. Don't forget about the Toyota Care program you have coming with the lease. An oil change at 10k and 20k and then 5 tire rotations with the 2 year of roadside all at NO COST with any new car lease or purchase. Please look me up on your 1st service and THANK YOU again for allowing me to be apart of your 1st Toyota. Alan:)

It was my pleasure to bring the Prius down to you so you could have your mechanic check it out as I knew you had a busy hectic work schedule and this was your 1st car purchase and I wanted to make it painless for you. Congrats again and hope you hit the 50 mpg mark. Alan and Wendy.
