Toyota. Nowhere else. That's all I ever wanted to work for. I have joked that I bleed Toyota emblems. My Dad, Uncle, and Aunt all worked for Toyota when I was growing up. We were early adopters of the product here in Central Illinois. I think our 1989 Corolla was the first Toyota in Fairbury, IL. I started at Fort's as a Salesman on April Fools Day 1996. Hopefully, I haven't been the fool! It is an easy way for me to remember the date. I had never sold a car or worked at a dealer before, but I impressed the sales manager with my product knowledge. Later, as my Wife and I started a family. I needed a kid-friendly schedule and moved to the service department. This has been an opportunity to meet thousands of Toyota lovers! I can talk Toyota all day with you folks!

We never fail to receive the best service from everyone at Fort's Toyota. Kevin, Ray and Chris went out of their way to see that everything was perfect. At this point I can't imagine buying a car or having at Fort's Toyota. Kevin, Ray and Chris went out of their way to see that everything was perfect.

I've been doing business - new cars and scheduled service - with Fort Toyota for over 25 years. I've always been treated well, and my needs have been met. A different dealership is more conveniently close, - with Fort Toyota for over 25 years. I've always been treated well, and my needs have been met. A different dealership is more conveniently close, but overall, Fort Toyota is friendlier, faster & cheaper. I've even begun to bring my RX450H Lexus to Fort for service - they can handle everything except recalls on that vehicle. More
