Toyota Earns Important Praise from Consumer Reports
Toyota’s reputation for automotive excellence continues to be reinforced by major auto critics. The automaker has once again been named in the Top Ten by Consumer Reports. This indicates a high level of proven consumer satisfaction in the line-up’s cars, SUVs, trucks, and minivan. It also recognizes the true durability and value that comes with every Toyota purchase. For a test drive of your favorite, head to McKinnon Toyota dealer serving Birmingham AL.
Top Ten Automakers
To make the Top Ten in such a competitive industry, Toyota works hard to create the best package for each of its models. On top of the fact that it sells more hybrids than any other full-line automaker, Toyota emphasizes fuel efficiency across the line-up. Durability scores demonstrate that most Toyotas make it to the ten-year mark, if not beyond. Consumer Reports surveys demonstrate that buyers are pleased with their Toyota purchase.
Top Pick Cars
Toyota also earned two Top Picks from Consumer Reports. Winning in the crowded midsized sedan category, the 2016 Toyota Camry demonstrated that it has what it takes to please critics and shoppers.

2016 Toyota RAV4 vs. 2016 Honda CR-V
Built smarter, better equipped, and more versatile than ever, the 2016 Toyota RAV4 is poised to topple its rivals such as the 2016 Honda CR-V. The RAV4 is available now at McKinnon Toyota dealer serving Montgomery AL. Schedule a test drive and check out the latest deals.
Size Counts
Even in an SUV, size counts. After all, that’s part of the reason you are shopping for a crossover. The RAV4 is taller and wider than the CR-V. This gives it more wiggle room and more cargo room. It boasts 73.4 cu.ft. while the Honda can offer 70.6 cu.ft.
Safety Issues
The RAV4 has a five-star federal safety rating and eight airbags. The CR-V has five stars and only six airbags. Do the extra bags make a difference? Toyota has a standard knee blocker bag to protect the vulnerable driver. The extra front bag stops the front seat passenger’s tendency to slide out of a seatbelt during the collision. While both SUVs have been declared IIHS Top Safety Picks, the RAV4 got top scores in every critical test. The CR-V got an average score in two IIHS tests.
Around-View
Only the RAV4 offers a four-camera parking system. With a bird’s eye view, the driver has a better chance of avoiding every obstacle. This makes life safer and reduces the chances that a simple parking maneuver will leave a scratch on your SUV. Value your trade.

McKinnon Toyota Reviews the 2016 Toyota Tundra
A new pickup should be an investment in the future. The Tundra promises to be there for the long haul as well as the big haul. It has the backing of auto analyst Kelley Blue Book, which recently gave it a prestigious award.
Resale Value Award
Beating the Ford F-150 and others in its class, the Toyota Tundra earned the Best Resale Value Award from Kelley Blue Book. This certainly indicates that the Tundra is successful as a business asset in both ways that count. It can work hard, and it can be sold profitably when it isn’t wanted any more. For a quick quote and up-to-date information about pricing, contact McKinnon Toyota dealer serving Birmingham AL.
Smart Slip
To make the 2016 Toyota Tundra competitive in more situations, engineers outfitted it with a limited slip differential(LSD). This makes the electronic traction control work for the truck and never against it. The LSD device recognizes when the truck needs power but it also needs traction. Instead of decreasing power at this crucial time, like every other traction system on a pickup, it can create stability while maintaining power. This is essential when the truck is hauling or towing. When other trucks are reducing the throttle, the Tundra can move the load full-steam ahead.Schedule a test drive and check out the performance for yourself.

Detailed Package
The 4Runner is every bit the detailed package that the Grand Cherokee is. In fact, the 4Runner starts you out with eight speakers rather than the Grand Cherokee’s six. It has a standard backup camera, an option on the Grand Cherokee. It has a standard tow hitch, another Grand Cherokee option. While the Grand Cherokee has many luxurious trims, it offers them at a near-luxury price. The 4Runner offers its more luxurious cabins without driving the cost up so high.
Spacious Package
If you are trying to decide which one to test drive, be sure to check out the 4Runner’s big cabin. The 4Runner has a class-leading 47 cu.ft. cargo hold. That beats the Grand Cherokee and every other SUV. The 4Runner expands space to 88 cu.ft. The Grand Cherokee claims only 68 cu.ft., a 20 cu.ft. difference!
Performance
The Grand Cherokee and 4Runner offer different takes on performance. While the Grand Cherokee powertrain has more horsepower, the 4Runner delivers more torque. Since torque ensures adequate acceleration, this gives the 4Runner the advantage. After all, it takes some real strength to move a big SUV in interstate traffic or on the trail.

Four Reasons that Your Family Will Love the Sequoia
The 2016 Toyota Sequoia offers a smart tech-rich cabin as part of a package designed to serve the American family. There are many reasons to test drive. Here are four of the most compelling reasons to give it a try for your family.
Performance
Generally a three-row SUV is underpowered. The Sequoia refuses to be one of them. It has plenty of horsepower and torque. This means it can handle its weight even during uphills climbs or interstate sprints.
Ride Quality
Reviewers have noted that the Sequoia has a better ride quality than many other three-row SUVs and crossovers. That’s because Toyota engineers constructed a suspension that can adequately damp the road bumps. The engineers also made sure to insulate the cabin against noise, making the ride much more pleasant.
Spaciousness
A three-row SUV should be big and spacious, even on the third row. Since the third row is part of the design, not a last minute extra, this SUV truly has enough space for every passenger.
Ample Cargo Space
A family SUV should be able to take care of your travel gear. The Sequoia has a large cargo hold. You can multiply your free space by flat-folding the seats.
Financing
