The Toyota Legacy: From Looms to Legendary Cars
Did you know Toyota started out making textile looms? Founded in 1924 by Sakichi Toyoda, the company didn’t produce its first car until the late 1930s. The name "Toyota" (instead of “Toyoda”) was chosen for its auspicious symbolism—eight strokes in Japanese Katakana, which signifies luck and prosperity.
Today, Toyota’s reputation is rock-solid. With over 10 million vehicles produced annually and models like the RAV4 topping sales charts worldwide—including in Texas—Toyota continues to set industry standards for quality, efficiency, and longevity.

Toyota Maintenance Tips for San Antonio Drivers
✅ Stick to the 5,000-Mile Rule
Oil changes every 5,000 miles help keep Toyota engines running clean and smooth—especially in the South Texas heat.
✅ Don't Ignore Dashboard Lights
Modern Toyotas are smart. If your hybrid battery or check engine light is on, schedule diagnostics ASAP to avoid costly repairs.
✅ Watch for AC Mold & Odors
Especially during humid seasons, have your Toyota's A/C system sanitized regularly—like the 2,400+ systems serviced last year by local techs.
