There isn't a Trent Reznor score attached to this story, but Toyota must've finally received The Social Network courtesy of its Netflix queue. The automaker has announced that it's creating a virtual online hangout of its own. Dubbed Toyota Friend, the service will connect Toyota owners with a shared love for the Japanese automaker.
Toyota has teamed up with cloud computing solutions company Salesforce.com. One of the tech firms products is called Salesforce Chatter, which is a private social network designed to allow a specific group to communicate. For the automaker's purposes, Toyota Friend will allow vehicle owners to interact with dealers, the manufacturer and each other. In fact, Toyota Friend will even connect owners to their cars by tapping into the vehicles telematic systems.
Initially, Toyota Friend will roll out to Japanese customers. Specifically those that have purchased 2012 model year electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids.
This partnership involves more than shared technology. Toyota is investing 442 million yen (approximately $5.4 million USD) into the company that oversees the application of the automaker's global cloud computing development, which is called Toyota Media Services. Salesforce is supplying 223 million yen ($2.7 million USD). Additionally, Microsoft has agreed to provide 335 million yen ($4.1 million USD) as part of the recently announced strategic partnership between the computing giant and Toyota. See the full press release after the break.

Toyota Masters The Art Of The Conjunctive
2012 Toyota Prius V - Click above for high-res image gallery
The hybrid lexicon is a language built on a foundation of disjunction. Buyers may have phenomenal fuel economy or space for kids and cargo. You can embarrass your neighbors at the fuel pump or have a satisfying driving experience. In fact, opting for a battery pack is so fraught with compromise that it's almost as if hybrid manufacturers have completely deleted the conjunctive 'and' from their diction. Even so, that fact hasn't stopped buyers from seeking out electrified vehicles in increasing numbers.
Toyota has sold over one million Prius models in the United States since the vehicle first debuted a decade ago. That number blossoms to two million if global sales are accounted for, and the model's popularity has helped usher in a bloom of hybrid products from over 16 manufacturers. The technology may not be the perfect solution to our fuel economy concerns, but the Prius has taken off in ways that would have been difficult to imagine when the first gangly example whirred off the line.
Now Toyota is set to grow its Prius lineup with three new models. In fact, Bob Carter, Toyota division group vice president and general manager, says that the Japanese automaker fully expects the Prius family to become its best-selling product line in the near future - beating out internal combustion titans like the Camry and Corolla in the process. As a result, the company is planning to unleash of a barrage of products that include a model based on the Prius C Concept, a plug-in version of the hybrid and the taller, boxier Prius V. The thought is that a few simple variations on the company's successful battery-powered recipe will offer buyers solutions that the conventional Prius simply couldn't match. The only question is whether or not the will respond to what is effectively a few clever re-body jobs. If the Prius V is any indication, the answer is a resounding yes.

Here at Lombard Toyota, we enjoy not only helping our customers drive home in an affordable new vehicle, but love when we can help the environment while doing so. The Toyota Prius, first launched in 1997, offers their Hybrid model with a 50 MPG estimate* and ‘Harmony Between Man, Nature, and Machine’ according to Toyota.com. The solar powered roof, circulates cooler air throughout the Prius, even while the outside temperature rises.
This eco-friendly ‘green’ vehicle offered at your Chicago Toyota dealer, rises above other vehicles in its class. Many customers rave about the sleek design as well as the ultra-quiet engine. So quiet in fact, that many may argue that pedestrians passing by in large cities such as Chicago, or suburbs such as Lombard, Illinois, have a hard time hearing that there is an approaching vehicle.
Toyota has plans to launch a sound ‘generator’ that will emit artificial sounds to other vehicles and pedestrians. While current testing is only available in Japan, the United States hopes to also offer this Toyota product in the United States. Whereas the Prius Hybrid comes equipped with a back-up beep device, Toyota continues to add and develop safety features for all of their vehicles!!

Lombard Toyota Supplies Guidance to Glenbard East High School
(LOMBARD, Ill.) – June 10, 2010 – For years, Glenbard East High School juniors and seniors were able to attend a post-prom party sponsored by the high school. Throughout the community this has been recognized as a successful event to provide students a safe place to go after prom. Four years ago, the event was cancelled indefinitely, until this year. The guidance counselors at the school considered this a vital part of the prom ritual, which provides safety and fun to the students. Local Chicagoland Toyota dealership, Lombard Toyota, was ready to jump in while the school was raising money.
The new and pre-owned Toyota dealership helped bring the students’ costs from $70-$90 per student, down to only $35, with their generous $4,000 donation. Held at the Dave & Buster’s in Addison, Illinois, students played games, ate food, and had a fantastic time from 11:30 p.m. until 4:00 a.m. Lombard Toyota leasing and sales consultant, Shannon Mandeldove, stated, “This was a great way for us to help out in the community and know that students had a chance to have fun after the prom festivities.”
As part of Lombard Toyota’s sponsorship, the Chicago new Toyota dealership worked with two Intro to Business classes to create marketing materials to promote the event. The students developed flyers, posters, videos and commercials to entice their fellow classmates to join in on the fun for a fraction of the original cost.
This demographic of young drivers, were able to take a standpoint from the advertising side to promote small events and receive the hands-on marketing experience. Throughout the process, Lombard Toyota was honored with a “Business Partnership Award” for the work they did in DuPage County with Glenbard East High School. Lombard Toyota also sponsored a bowling party for the Intro to Business class, where they raffled off $25-$100 gift cards.
The Chicago area dealership offers a wide variety of Toyota Models including the Matrix, Rav4, Corolla, Yaris, Tundra, Camry, and Prius, which until June 30, 2010 are offering special financing to qualified buyers.

“The third generation Sienna will look and drive more like a sedan,” Toyota said in a statement. This mini-van has distinctly American roots, with its design a product of Toyota’s Calty Design Research and its development taking place at the Toyota Technical Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
The 2011 Sienna comes with a choice of two engines. The 3.5 liter V-6 generates 266 horsepower with an estimated fuel economy of 24 MPG highway and 18 MPG in the city. The 187 horsepower 2.7 liter four cylinder engine is expected to deliver fuel efficiency ratings of 26 MPG highway and 19 MPG city. Both engines get a six speed automatic transmission.
The Sienna will come in five trim levels: a base, LE, SE, XLE and Limited. One of the more intriguing options is a rear seat dual view entertainment center, which uses two displays side by side to create a seamless 16.4 inch wide screen image from a single source. The system can also split the screens individually with input from separate sources. It can be seen from the third row and can be operated from any seat.
At Lombard Toyota, we are excited to have this third generation 2011 Sienna on our lot. The only minivan on the market with available all wheel drive, will have parents everywhere saying, “Mommy Like” and “Daddy Like.”

The big reveal for Toyota and Scion is staring you square in the face. Meet the 2011 Scion tC. Scion describes the car as defining "refined aggression." They called it, "masculine," too. Even though the new car borrows fairly heavily from the Fuse concept(not to mention the outgoing tC. The new model does indeed look more masculine, which is good for Scion, as the tC demographic not only skews young (most youthful in the industry it turns out), but very male as well.
As for what's new, the engine is now a 2.5-liter I-4, up from 2.4 liters. Power is up as well. The new tC ships with a respectable 180 horsepower and 173 pound-feet of torque. That's plus 19 ponies and 11 pound feet. The suspension is now "sport tuned" and the power steering is electronic, which Scion states better allows the engineers to dial in more steering feel.
The new tC also gets better gas mileage than the previous car (no word yet on exactly how much better) and comes with two new transmissions. There's a six-speed automatic that features sequential-shift (Scion-speak for a manual shift mode) as well asa six-speed manual that promises more refined shifting than the old five-speed. Other goodies include 18-inch wheels and larger tires, bigger brake rotors. Look for the new Scion tC to arrive in Lombard Toyota's Showroom later in the year.
