WE ARE A FAMILY OWNED AUTO GROUP IN
RECENT CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS: When I decided I wanted to get back into a truck after recently purchasing a car, I knew my options were limited both to the cost of the truck as well as the value of my trade in. Scott at Laurel Toyota went ahead and provided bottom line pricing on a truck that met my exact desires and was able to arrange a fair trade in value for my previous vehicle. Living over 300 miles away from the dealership, needless to say I was a bit apprehensive at both the idea of buying a car out of state as well as making arrangements to actually take the vehicle home. Scott was able to assuage my fears and facilitate the entire process. One week after I found the truck I wanted I was driving it home. No high pressure F&I to deal with, asked if I was interested in any extended warranties and such, I politely declined and that was it. I really hope local dealers understand that is an absolutely phenomenal way to do business. Scott (sales) and Zack (F&I) were both great and I am very happy with my decision to purchase a vehicle from Laurel Toyota. Scott made every effort to answer any question in a timely fashion. He was great from the initial meeting through the delivery process. Great buying experience. Found the vehicle online and asked for more information about it. Scott Long responded immediately! He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We were able to set everything up through emails during the week and I got my car that Saturday. The price was great! Went over every detail of the car and answered any question I had. I love my new (used) car! I recently purchased a new 2014 Mustang GT premium. i knew going in the basic kind of car i wanted. they didn't have what i wanted at the dealership so they searched all nearby dealers and couldn't find what i was looking. we ended up placing a custom order threw ford to get the exact car i wanted. he quoted me a price, after incentives including taxes, and all applicable fees. i took my vehicle specs and the price he gave me and contacted local dealers to see if they could beat Laurel Fords offer, and they either offered a higher amount or didn't answer back at all. it was the best deal within 75 miles of where i lived. i decided to place the order threw Laurel Ford and it took about 9 weeks to get built and delivered. they kept me updated on my vehicle status with weekly emails. they did not pressure me into buying any additional upgrades or packages. when i the vehicle finally came i was relieved to find it was exactly what i wanted but also the price i paid was the exact price he quoted me 9 weeks prior. they are very transparent with their offers, so if they say this is what you will pay, you can expect to pay that and not a penny more. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable of the car and helped me get acquainted with all its gadgets. i also want to mention i traded in my old car towards this purchase. they gave me the highest amount Kelly Blue book said my car was worth. it was overall a pleasant experience. i will buy from them for life and recommend them to anyone interested in a new car. Purchased New Sienna based on the ebay deal, Scott Long was the Sales rep for the Dealership. My transaction was smooth, friendly and in timely manner. The car was as described, and paper work only took minutes. Scott coordinated the time perfectly so I would have pleasant experience. He even gave course on the options/gadgets on the car. Since I had limited time, he even offered to help me at later time if I had any questions related to the car options. I would shop again at Laurel Toyota, Thanks Scott. Recently purchased a 2009 Subaru from Laurel Toyota, represented by Scott Long on eBay. The whole transaction was fast, smooth and friendly. The vehicle was exactly as represented in the detailed description and posted video, and the roof racks were installed as requested. They brought the vehicle to the airport and the transaction was done and the car on its way home to Colorado in less than half an hour. I had no trouble reaching Scott by both phone and email to get answers to some logistical questions, and he's easy and pleasant to deal with. Subarus are premium priced in Colorado; this car was priced better at a significantly lower milage, with warranty coverage, and in much better condition than anything we found locally. Worth the cross country drive, and when next I need a vehicle, I'll contact Scott first. Overexcited!! Costumer. Scott is the man!!!! Drove home six hours with the used car I bought ,had a real pleasurable ride. The car performed excellent, the interior was fresh like new. The entire transaction was very smooth from start to finish. We took delivery yesterday morning, October 30th. The Acura MDX is all we hoped it would be. This thing has more whistles & and bells than I imaged. Recently purchased a 2010 Mercury Mariner from Laurel Ford in Windber, PA. Scott Long assisted us in the purchase. Mr. Long treated us as though we were purchasing a brand new car. He explained every detail of the vehicle with confidence and pride. Mr. Long was extremely professional in every regard, but very personable at the same time. Purchasing "used" cars in the past have never been a positive experience as dealers/salesman seemed more bothered to be assisting on a used vehicle vs a new one. Scott made us feel very important and it was truly a great experience. I will highly recommend Laurel Ford and Scott Long to friends and relatives. I contacted Scott in reference to a vehicle they had listed on the internet. I was able to negotiate the entire purchase, finance, and extended warranty of this vehicle via e-mail in less than 24 hours. The next day I flew to Pittsburgh, Scott had their delivery personnel pick me up at the airport, take me to the local McDonald's to look over the truck, complete the paperwork, and I was on my way home (North Carolina)! This was the best vehicle buying experience I have had! Price was great and the ease of the transaction was priceless! Thank you Scott! This is the second vehicle I bought from Scott and it wont be my last, Scott and laurel dealership there the greatest !!! Fast service when i told Scott what I was looking for he had it the next day Drove 4+ hours from Buffalo, NY for the truck of my dreams, and this dealership was worth every mile. Excellent service, communication, and attention to detail. Would reccomend them any day!! Friendly, no pressure sales, quick paperwork and minimum fees. Good old-fashioned service and support to customers. Hard to find such service and support today First time ever buying a truck on the computer, did not even see it in person, just pictures, so was very hesitant. The salesman, Scott Long, could not have been nicer nor more honest, made a deal onthe phone, including my trade in, that was very fair. When I got to the dealership to get my truck after a 4 hour drive, everything about the truck and deal was EXACTELY as we had spoken about! No add ons, no BS, nothing additional! Scott did a great job and the actual sale took only a few minutes as they had everything ready when I got there. This dealer was definately worth the drive and when I buy another I will certianly call them with no hesitations! I would also recomend them to anyone! Laurel Ford/Lincoln and representative Scott Long provided exceptional service, follow up and warranty integrity. Without question the best I've ever experienced in 40years! I am from Atlanta and worked with Scott Long to purchase a new 2014 Toyota Tundra. Even though I had to drive 12 hours to get to Johnstown, PA to pick up the truck working with Scott was very easy. We conducted all the negations and details including my trade via email. The entire process could not have been easier and I am very pleased with the purchase process and my new truck! I was nervous about purchasing a car on-line, but I could not have had a better experience. The car actually turned out to be better than advertised and the service I received was incredible. Scott was patient with all of my questions and made me feel very comfortable before I purchased a one-way plane ticket to fly to Pittsburgh and pick up the car. He even arranged to have the car delivered to me at the airport so I did not have to drive the two hours to the dealership. The guys that met me with the car were extremely friendly and just added that much more to the adventure. I had been looking for a new Toyota Highlander for 6 months prior to purchasing and this would be my first Toyota purchase. Then I found this Toyota Highlander on-line at Laurel Toyota and I was connected to Scott Long. Right from the get-go he kindly answered all of my questions about the vehicle and patiently worked with me over two days as we worked out the details about my trade-in and price over the phone and email. With most of the details worked out over the phone and email,I planned on making the 100 mile trek too see if we could finalize the deal on a Saturday. I, however, could not make it for personal reasons. He kindly held the vehicle for me until Monday no questions asked. So on Monday, I made the trek still hesitant that something was going to be wrong with the vehicle due to the excellent price! Dear Scott, This is a excellent dealership to consider a new vehicle with. I found a new tundra that I liked via internet and did my entire deal through email. I emailed pictured of my vehicle and was given a trade value that day. I drove 4 hours from NY to pickup a truck that I dont feel any local dealer could of helped me on in price! My hats of to the team at Laurel Toyota and anybody that is looking to purchase from them feel confident as you will be treated the way you should when purchasing a new vehicle. J.

How new car shortages may impact your buying experience
Wed, 04 Sep 2013If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.
2015 Toyota Prius C is still colorful, still gets 53 mpg
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Few vehicles can match the affordable fuel economy of the $19,000, 53-mile-per-gallon Toyota Prius C, and that fact isn't likely to change for 2015, as the Japanese company has issued a moderate refresh of its sub-compact hybrid.
As mid-cycle refreshes go, this is a pretty standard affair, with a larger grille and tweaked LED headlights at the front of the Prius C, and more expressive taillights at the back. Toyota made some minor changes in the cabin, updating materials throughout, but not fiddling too much with the overall level of equipment.
Aside from those modest changes, this is the same fuel-efficient five-door, retaining its 1.5-liter, 73-horsepower, 82-pound-foot four-cylinder, while an electric motor tosses in an extra 26 ponies, for a total system output of 99 horsepower. Along with the 53-mpg highway rating, the C will return 46 mpg in the city.
Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota battery breakthrough, PSA's millionth BlueHDi diesel
Fri, May 6 2016Scientists at Toyota have developed battery technology that allows for higher energy density. Using material from hydrogen storage, researchers at the Toyota Research Institute of North America (TRINA) in beautiful Ann Arbor, Michigan have created an electrolyte that works well with a magnesium metal anode. Besides improving energy density for smaller, more powerful batteries, magnesium is also more stable than lithium, making it a safer alternative. Rather than guarding their secret, Toyota is sharing details of this breakthrough in order to advance the technology in hopes of an earlier mass deployment of magnesium batteries. See the video above, and read more in the press release below. Farmdrop – a sort of online farmer's market in the UK – is looking for help naming its electric delivery "vanimals." The Nissan e-NV200 vans are painted and decorated to look like cows, pigs, and chickens. While three of the vans have already been named, fans can suggest their own clever ideas for the rest of the fleet on social media. Those whose names are selected will win a month's worth of shopping on Farmdrop. Cary McCarface, anyone? Read more at the company's website. PSA has built its millionth Euro 6 BlueHDi diesel engine. The automaker builds two diesel engines – a 1.6-liter and a 2.0-liter – at its plant in Tremery, France at a rate of 7,000 engines a day. BlueHDi technology uses three different emissions control mechanisms to filter pollutants out of diesel exhaust, including an oxygen catalyst, an additive filter to remove particulate matter, and a Selective Catalytic Reduction system to reduce NOx. BlueHDi is used in all new Peugeot, Citroen, and DS Euro 6 diesel vehicles. Read more at Green Car Congress. Charging Ahead Toyota Scientists Make Breakthrough on Safer, Smarter Batteries May 04, 2016 ANN ARBOR, Mich. (May 4, 2016) -- For anyone (i.e. everyone) who's ever panicked when their mobile device chirped, "low battery," the future could be far less stressful, thanks to the advanced battery research of scientists at the Toyota Research Institute of North America (TRINA). A new breakthrough involving magnesium batteries may soon open the doors for smaller, longer-lasting batteries for everything from cars to cell phones. What's the Big Deal with Magnesium? Magnesium metal has long been theorized as a much safer and more energy-dense alternative to current lithium battery technology.
