well i stopped by the local Toyota dealership down here where i'm going to school for the first time, and man, i was impressed! they have one of the best parts department i've seen that had stuff i never knew existed. for example, i saw a Toyota brand car wash, a Toyota brand wax, and glass cleaner even! i found stuff there that i haven't been able to find anywhere else, like Meguiars High Endurance tire gel and applicator. i couldn't believe they sold it there but i sure was glad to find it since i've looked for it everywhere. that just goes to show that Toyota sells nothing but the best stuff. i also got a can of Toyota throttle body cleaner since i haven't been able to find that anywhere either. just wondering if anybody else has seen stuff like this before since i've never heard about it.

 

Wow! The next time I need cleaning & maintenance supplies I might just take a trip to the dealer and see what they sell. Think I'll test drive a 2003 while I'm there.

 

Yea, my dealer, Toyota of Wallingford, carries all that stuff. Their parts department is more like a little store within the dealership rather than a "parts counter". They sell cleaning supplies, saftey supplies (first aid kits, fire extinguishers, road flares), body accessories, Toyota clothing (shirts, hats, jackets, watches, baby clothes).

I usually check with them first when I need something. They take good care of me with discounts, and everybody knows my name and my truck. It's a good feeling. I like to give them business.
