Our Boston Toyota dealership is a fan of the Bruins. If you are, too and would like to meet them then here is your chance. Come down to the Woburn Public Library and meet Blades, the Bruins mascot, and at least one of the Bruins Celebrity Readers as the library installs its brand-new Bruins Reading Rink. The Reading Rink will be located in the Children’s Room and you can meet them here. This exciting event takes place on Tuesday, August 17th at 3 pm. It will be an afternoon of fun and reading you won’t want to miss.

Two months ago, my new family bought me off the lot at Woburn Toyota. My Boston Toyota dealership was good to me and my owners liked their salesman there. Being a 2010 Toyota Prius, I was surprised I had been in stock more than a week at my dealership in Boston. Toyota had equipped me well and I was glad when my new family showed up and seemed so happy to buy me.

My owners are a young couple with two little boys. Considering the boys are so young, they’re very well behaved and haven’t spilled anything in me yet. They’ve also developed their parents’ taste for seafood at a young age. That’s why yesterday they drove me into Boston to go to a fun seafood restaurant in Boston Harbor.

On the way in, I got 50mpg! My family always plays this game when they drive me, where they try to see how little gas they can use getting from once place to another. It’s a lot of fun and I get to show off how efficient I am. When we got to The Barking Crab in Boston, my owners parked me and my family got out. It was a nice evening  and a lot of people were walking near the harbor. I got lots of looks and comments since I’m a particularly well equipped Toyota Prius.

When the family came out I noticed the boys had butter all over their faces from eating lobster! I was so worried that would be the first time I got food on my seats, but luckily my owners wiped their faces right before they got in. Hopefully we go back soon. I’m a big fan of Boston. Toyota made me so nice to drive that my family has only had me two months and have already driven me far enough for my first oil change. They said they’d bring me back to Woburn Toyota next weekend for my first oil change. That should be fun.

2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser Boston

Last week my Boston Toyota dealership, Woburn Toyota, had a really busy week. I was very hopeful that I would get sold. Being a 2010 TRD Edition Toyota FJ Cruiser, I knew it couldn’t take too long. Sure enough, mid week, a young guy and his wife came over to look at me. They liked me a lot and took me for a test drive.

They had asked the salesman if they could take me down a bumpy dirt road to test out my Bilstein shocks and he agree. It was a lot of fun and was the first time I’ve done any real driving off the Woburn Toyota lot. To boot it was even on dirt! Two firsts in one day!

When they brought me back to my Toyota dealer Boston they went right inside to talk to their salesman. About an hour later they came outside and shook his hand, having bought me. I was really excited.

After being cleaned, they picked me up the following day. Just yesterday, they took me out for the most fun I’ve ever had. They drove me on an off-road trek through some hills in New Hampshire. I drove through water and over rocky boulders and I got so dirty. Later in the day my new owners took me through a car wash. What a fun day!

It is April and youth soccer has begun. I drove to my first soccer practice this week and it was great! Watching all the little kids running around trying to kick the ball around was so much fun. They worked on kicking, shooting, and scoring. They all did really well and I was so proud of my little ones.

After practice they had their first game. Jonathan and Chloe did so well and Jonathan scored a goal! I couldn’t believe how good they were since this was their first time playing. It was quite windy though and the poor little ones were so cold. They seemed excited when the game was over just so they could warm up. They hopped in my backseat and grabbed a blanket. Their mother and my owner, Pam, got them a big cup of hot cocoa and told them how proud she was of the job they did. They smiled and gave her a big hug. She belted them in and we were on our way.

I am a 2011 Toyota Sienna minivan from Woburn Toyota, a boston toyota dealer. I am salsa red pearl, a new color, and have some really great options. The kids love to watch dvds on my flip down screen and I am so glad I get to see them laughing so much. We take long drives sometimes and having something to keep the kids occupied is a definite win/win for the kids and parents. We headed back to wellesley where we live and I was already excited for the next weekend game.

Consumer Reports has ranked the 2010 Toyota Prius Boston as the #1 Green Car in America!

Says Consumer Reports, “The Prius received a redesign for 2010. It’s still the most fuel-efficient car in our Ratings, getting 44 mpg overall. That distinction helped it earn our pick in this category for the seventh straight year, the longest of any current model. In addition, the Prius is a pleasant car to drive, with a roomy interior, a steady ride, hatchback versatility, and excellent reliability and crash-test results. The 2010 redesign also gave it a more solid feel and a dedicated EV mode that allows it to run longer on electric power at low speeds, an advantage mainly in slow, congested traffic. Price: $23,150-$26,950.”

It was Saturday night again and I knew what that meant…. bingo! You were thinking bingo, right? It was a Saturday night ritual and had been so before I even arrived here. Hi, I’m a classic silver toyota camry and I live in the boston area. I love it here because there are so many things to do. We have new things going on every night. Tonight it’s bingo, but tomorrow could be chess, dancing, or karaoke. That is the exciting life you live when you are a boston toyota camry.

Every weekend we had the same routine. It was something we were all very familiar with. Around 4:30 Jess would start to call everyone so I could be loaded up by 5:30. I drove everyone over to the hall and would await to see the luck of the evening. You could always tell when it was a good night. Everyone would be smiling and laughing. They would hook up the ipod and the tunes would be jamming. Usually on a winning night we would stop by the local diner for a late night bite.

A losing night on the other hand wasn’t nearly as fun. No smiles, no tunes, no eats. Just a quick trip home and a see you next weekend. I definitely preferred the winning nights. I like to use all my features and show everyone a good time. That is what I was made to do and I sure love doing it.

I waited with excitement to see what the night had brought. As Jess and her friends walked towards me I saw them….smiles! Yay! We were off to the diner. As her ipod played everyone sang along until we arrived. I was parked in my usual spot in front of the window and they made their way in. It would be at least an hour until I was needed so I just watched through the window. I loved my owner, Jess. She always kept me neat and tidy. You really couldn’t ask for a better toyota camry owner.

Time flew by and I was once again loaded up. Two in the front and three in the back. As we pulled into the driveway I parked and prepared myself for the night. Everyone said their goodbyes and  Jess set my alarm. Another Saturday down and another eventful night.

Maybe you have seen me around town, a silver 2010 Toyota Prius? I am a boston toyota, but am here at Woburn Toyota to get my anti-lock brake system repaired. I’ve heard I am under a recall and owners have been having a problem with the braking system. I haven’t noticed any of these issues personally, but it is better to be safe than sorry. That is why Shirley and Roy, my owners, have brought me in to be checked out.

Once dropped off a nice young gentleman pulled me into a very large building full of, what looked like, cubicles. I was quickly parked and saw a gentle technician, named Bob. He put a nice mat down over my carpet to protect me from dirt. I found this so thoughtful. Then he wore gloves and gave me a thorough check. After testing my brake system he swapped out a part, made some adjustments and I was all set to go! I saw him speaking to Roy and explaining some things. He said this toyota was going to be just fine..

He backed me out of the garage into a parking spot. He shook Roy’s hand gave a nod to Shirley and handed them my keys. It was so quick and easy! We were back on the road in no time and my owners smiled the whole way home. I was so glad I was all taken care of and my owners didn’t need to worry. I had always been a very reliable car and knew I would continue to be one for a very long time!

Thyme-Rubbed NY Strips with Sauteed Mushrooms

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 pound New York strip steaks, cut 3/4 inch thick
• 1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
• 1/4 cup minced shallot
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons red wine
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and thyme. Sprinkle onto each side of the steaks, pressing in so it adheres. Set aside.
2. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots; cook and stir for about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, and cook for a few more minutes, until tender. Stir in the red wine, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
3. Heat the oil in a separate skillet over medium-high heat. Fry steaks for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or to your desired degree of doneness. Remove to a plate and let rest for a few minutes. Top with mushrooms and serve. A great accompaniment would be herbed red bliss potatoes or fresh asparagus with hollandaise sauce. Enjoy!
