For the second year in a row, J.D. Power and Associates has recognized the Scion tC for its youthful appeal and we here at Mark Toyota Scion have to agree.  We know younger drivers in the greater Mosinee area and beyond want something that does more than get them from point A to point B, and we think the tC is a great point to start on.

According to the data research firm, over…

We don't know what tell you, folks, but things are just turning up Toyota these days. First it was the record sales numbers from 2012, then it was the news of our satisfied customers in Consumer Reports' 2013 Car Brand Perception Survey. We were almost tempted to start writing about our new and used cars again, but thanks to U.S. News, the awards just keep on coming.

Folks, it seems like just yesterday when we here at Mark Toyota told you about how well our favorite automaker fared in the Consumer Reports 2013 Car Brand Perception Survey. If it wouldn't have garnered sideways glances, we were so proud we could have just hugged our new and used cars. Well now that we've gotten word on how our cars sold in January, we better get to hugging before they're gone.

Before there was Yelp, before there was Angie's List, and before there was Rotten Tomatoes, if anyone ever needed a second option on a future purchase, there was the almighty Consumer Reports to guide us. And even with the advent of the internet, we here at Mark Toyota still swear by them. Be it televisions, lawnmowers, or new and used cars, reputation goes a long way with these kinds of things, and we don't trust the opinion of just anyone when money's on the line.

Be it high speed internet or video games controllers, we at Mark Toyota believe wires are for the birds. Mark our words, because before you know it, we will be living in a world where no one will ever again have to live in fear of tripping over stray cables or an extension cord being too short. It is a world that can't get here fast enough, and since the last thing any of us want to do when driving a new or used car is to be fiddling with our god-forsaken phone chargers, Toyota has arrived to make…

Jalopnik writer Jason Torchinsky has a pretty nice gig going for him. Not that we don't love our jobs and our showroom of fine new or used Scions here at good old Mark Toyota. But having an automaker fly you across the country and put you up in a Vegas hotel just so you can drive their new car that hasn't even hit the public yet? Yeah, that's definitely what we'd call a pretty nice gig.

Toyota and Microsoft recently formed a partnership to develop a gesture-based infotainment system based on the Kinect technology Microsoft developed.  The Kinect sensor is used with the popular Xbox 360 as a motion-based gaming peripheral.

The purpose of the system Toyota is developing is to streamline actions such as changing the radio station or lowering the volume as much as possible.  Can you imagine being able to change the radio station or skip to a…

It's no secret that automakers strive to add more value to each vehicle in their respective lineups with each passing model year. And while this typically results in one or two minor changes, larger ones are typically reserved for complete redesigns...that is, unless we're talking about Toyota.

With the recent redesign of the Toyota Camry, everyone at Mark Toyota figured 2013 would be a rather low-key model year. Such, however, is far…

If you want to go green, there's no better option right now than the Toyota Prius or one of its sibling models (Prius v, Prius c, etc.).  But what if you're a speed demon who wants to go green? Toyota may soon have a green solution for you too.

To be more precise, the renowned Japanese automaker is considering bringing back its Supra sports car with an all-electric platform. Produced from 1978 through…

Jay Leno is a lucky man and we at Mark Toyota are a bit jealous of his latest accomplishment. Some of you may not know that he's not only the host of the The Tonight Show but he also has a web series called Jay Leno's Garage. As part of his show, Jay gets to drive all the latest and greatest cars, along with some classics, including a replica of the first Toyota…
