The KGW School Supply Drive is a great way to help the community. In order for kids to succeed at school, they need the right supplies.

From now through Labor Day weekend, donate cash or supplies. Donate $5 worth of school supplies at Gresham Toyota or any local Toyota dealership and receive $10 off your Toyota Parts or Service visit. You can also make a donation by texting “SUPPLIES” to 20222. Show your confirmation text to your Toyota Service Advisor during your next visit and receive your $10 discount.

Our goal is to send more than 5000 children back to school with basic school supplies they otherwise couldn’t afford.

Gresham Toyota is proud to be a sponsor of such a great event. To learn more, go the KGW School Supply Drive’s official website for more information.

The video below shows Toyota’s commitment to the community.  By volunteering in and around San Antonio, Toyota is sending the message: We Care.

The plant in San Antonio is responsible for manufacturing both the Toyota Tundra and Toyota Tacoma. Toyota’s employees understand that their job is not only to make great trucks, but to also help the surrounding community.

By volunteering with non-profit organizations to help the education system, arts industry, and infrastructure, Toyota is ensuring a stronger San Antonio.

But for Toyota, we would not be as vibrant and economically prosperous a city and as proud a city as we are today -  Ramiro Cavazos, President & CEO San Antonio Hispanic chamber of Commerce

Join Gresham Toyota this Saturday, August 14th, for the annual Rockin’ Around the Block car show. Held in historic downtown Gresham, it will be fun for the whole family and a chance to see some amazing vehicles.

The car show will feature a pancake breakfast, activities for kids, booths, and a street cruise. One of the newest features this year is “Classics and Culture” display which will show off specialty cars such as a 1957 F150 pick-up.

Gresham Toyota is a sponsor of this event in part because it also serves a fundraiser for Mt. Hood Community College’s Automotive Technology programs. In the past, Rockin’ Around the Block has worked to raise over $100,000.

Come down this Saturday to enjoy the summer sunshine and have fun checking out the Portland area’s best car shows. Want to drive your car in the street cruise? To register your car for the cruise, email 2010RockinRoundTheBlock@Gmail.com or call Vern at 503-656-3288. Registration is $10 or $15 the day of the event.

Tesla Motors is a manufacturer of electric automobiles and on July 19th, 2006 Tesla introduced the first ever Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) that did 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds and could travel over for 300 miles before having to recharge. Back in May of this year, Toyota announced they would be investing $50 million to develop two Toyota cars with the latest Tesla technology by 2012.

“Toyota and Tesla engineering teams have made a lot of progress in a short amount of time and it is exciting to start seeing some initial results,” Tesla Chief Technology Officer JB Straubel said in a statement.

With Toyota and Tesla teaming up, new innovations are sure to emerge.  Tesla holds over 1,400 patents for their cars and will be bringing decades of industry experience and research to the Toyota brand. We are excited to see what comes from this partnership and it’s sure to include advancements in cars that change the way we drive and live.

While we’re waiting for these cars, why not check out Gresham Toyota’s great selection of hybrids. Head on over to Gresham Toyota’s Facebook Page and like us to keep up to date on the latest industry news.
