  • Rural living is far away from genuine Toyota parts

    Being a car care enthusiast, I was somewhat unsure about my decision to make my next car a Toyota. Not so much that I was concerned with the quality or performance of their vehicles, but more about the ongoing care and maintenance of them.

    Since I live about 2 hours away from the nearest dealerships, how hard was it going to be for me to get genuine Toyota parts when I needed them? I learned long ago that you should always err on the side of caution when buying car parts so as not to void your vehicle's warranty.

    Knowing there are innumerable car enthusiasts out there, I started doing some research to find online sources for buying Toyota accessories. Any time I have bought a new vehicle in the past, I've always spent a good chunk of money in order to get the car completely tricked out.

    But just having access to Toyota parts isn't enough. I am also concerned about being near an authorized dealer for warranty repairs, potential recall work, and anything else that might require me to have to drive the 2 hours each way in order to get my car taken care of.

    Of course, I do realize this is one of the costs of living in such a rural area. The normal conveniences are just a little further away.
