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.

He is very patient in the review of our new vehicle and answered all of our questions as well as set up and explained the Bluetooth and all of the apps in our new RAV4.

She is very personable and pleasant. Thanks to Mike for checking out our Camry for the trade in. More

The people at this dealership are AMAZING! After unfortunate experiences with dealerships in the area, my wife and I pulled in to CR Toyota and dealt with Spencer "T" Reed and Mike Leuenburger. After unfortunate experiences with dealerships in the area, my wife and I pulled in to CR Toyota and dealt with Spencer "T" Reed and Mike Leuenburger. Both of them were amazing and we felt like we were treated as if we knew them. We immediately felt at home and after a short hour negotiation, we had purchased a new car. I know this sounds made up, but it is not. We originally were shopping for Hondas at Randy Keuhl and we did not meet anyone or see any vehicles that impressed us at all. We felt at the end of our rope and Spencer T., Tim Steel and Mike L saved us from car buying depression. I hope they stay there for a long time because my family feels like we are finally in good hands when it comes to automotive purchases and service. Look up Spencer and meet Mike L. I promise it wont be a disappointment. More

Another great experience from Cedar Rapids Toyota I've been looking for a new vehicle for a very long time. When I called about a vehicle I'd seen online the salesperson was extremely helpful and answ I've been looking for a new vehicle for a very long time. When I called about a vehicle I'd seen online the salesperson was extremely helpful and answered all my questions. When I arrived for a test drive he had the vehicle waiting for me. During the test drive Alan was again able to answer all of my questions and was also explained to me a little bit of the history of the vehicle. After the test drive I had decided to purchase the vehicle based in part on how courteous the salesperson was. More

Awesome!!! Just wanted to say a big thank you to Terry Helgeson, Mike Leuenberger, and Wendy Nelson for being such great people to work with! It was our first e Just wanted to say a big thank you to Terry Helgeson, Mike Leuenberger, and Wendy Nelson for being such great people to work with! It was our first experience with Cedar Rapids Toyota and we truly enjoyed everything about it. Terry is a great sales representative who had tremendous knowledge about the Toyota Tundra that we were looking at. He put absolutely no pressure on us to buy a vehicle. He showed us numerous features of the truck while we were looking at it, and spent a great deal of time with us after we purchased the vehicle to make sure we were set up properly as far as the garage door opener, Bluetooth telephone feature, etc. You have a great staff at CR Toyota and we will certainly recommend you to all our friends and family, and we will definitely come back when we need another vehicle. We love our Tundra!! Thank you all so much! More
