My name is Wendy Nelson. I grew up in a small town, Deep River that has a population of about the size of our dealership. I graduated from High school in Montezuma. I then attended and graduated from the U of I. After I graduated I got a job selling cars at a dealership in Iowa City. Low and behold I ended up here at Cedar Rapids Toyota doing financing. It is hard to believe that I have worked for such a great co now for so many years. Not sure where all that time has gone. It doesn’t seem possible. The best part about going to work every day is that I truly love what I do and the people that I get to work with. Every customer is different and has different needs.

Used car purchase I contacted the dealer through the internet regarding a used vehicle purchase for my son. I found a good candidate vehicle with a complete service his I contacted the dealer through the internet regarding a used vehicle purchase for my son. I found a good candidate vehicle with a complete service history on CARFAX, and was pleased that the dealer sponsored the CARFAX report. I had some questions and a couple of minor concerns. The sales person, Alan Makabi, addressed my concerns and answered my questions. He took the time to research a couple of things and we made the deal. All in all a great experience. We have our VW Jetta Sportwagon serviced at the VW side and today they also serviced my Nissan Murano because I could not get into the Nissan dealer for service until after the New Year. I would recommend Alan, Wendy Nelson in finance was great to work with too. More

From GM Products to Toyota I was online and noticed a truck I was interested in. Sent in my email address, and within 24 hours had a response back from Alan. This was on a Sun I was online and noticed a truck I was interested in. Sent in my email address, and within 24 hours had a response back from Alan. This was on a Sunday. I was so impressed with Alan and ended going to Toyota a couple days later. What a professional, Alan was very easy to work with, showed me a truck, let me take it for a drive, and came back with a excellent offer on my truck. At that point the deal was struck. The next excellent experience was working with Wendy, very professional and really explained everything pertaining to Toyota, the truck and the Company. I am so pleased with these two people, and the dealership, I would highly recommend them to anyone. And I will be back. Thanks Alan and Wendy for making my Christmas Merry. Bill More

Awesome Atmosphere I recently stopped into Cedar Rapids Toyota to get a new car and I am so glad that I did! I looked all over town for a new vehicle but it was extreme I recently stopped into Cedar Rapids Toyota to get a new car and I am so glad that I did! I looked all over town for a new vehicle but it was extremely hard due to my work schedule. Alan went above and beyond by coming into the office early, on a Monday, to help me look at their selection. Wendy made the paper work completely stress and hassle free. I would highly recommend Cedar Rapids Toyota to anyone who is looking for new vehicles. More

We had bought 3 cars from them in the past, and knew they were great to work with. My family has worked with Terry Helgeson for quite a while, and he is always great to deal with. He is never pushy, he lets the products sell themselves. Wendy Nelson in finance was great to work with yet again as well. She makes going through paperwork fun, which is not easy to do. Terry and Wendy make it fun to buy a car, like it should be. I've been to other dealers in the past where that isn't the case. Keep up the good work CR Toyota! See ya soon. Jeff and Joni P.S. We love the Highlander :) More
