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.

My sales was a tough one having to deal with the insurance company, their agent, and the credit union. They hung in just so I could have a car after waiting for two months on the insurance company. Just excellent people to deal with. At my age, I may never buy another car, but if I do, I will return to CR Toyota. More

Alan and Wendy were great to work with and was very detailed in the information we needed to know and questions that we had asked regarding leasing considering this was our first time. Our Son loves the car and really enjoyed spending time in the kids area and having popcorn and lemonade while we signed the paperwork. Thanks Cedar Rapids Toyota! More

Great purchasing and service I have always been happy with my experience getting my Corolla serviced at Cedar Rapids Toyota. Everyone is professional and friendly and the waiting I have always been happy with my experience getting my Corolla serviced at Cedar Rapids Toyota. Everyone is professional and friendly and the waiting area is super comfortable with a great atmosphere. When it was time to replace my Corolla I was hoping to find what I want at a good price here in Cedar Rapids. Chuck James was so laid back and easy to work with. After test driving a Prius I knew it was the car I wanted. We sat down and talked numbers and I was able to get the Prius at a great price! Wendy was fun to talk to as we did the paperwork and Chuck very patiently walked me through how to use the new features of my Prius. (My Corolla was an ‘04 so technology has changed quite a bit! lol). I’m LOVING my new car. I highly recommend Cedar Rapids Toyota, Chuck, Wendy and the entire service department! I have a great experience every time I go there. Thank you everyone! More
