One of the many things that we here at DARCARS Toyota Silver Spring have learned since entering into the auto industry is that any press is good press. Even if someone's crazy enough to not flat-out adore the new and used cars at our dealership, we still get a plug as long as they talk about it. But who are we kidding, one of the best parts of working with our favorite automaker is that most of the time it's great press.

Speaking of big news from April, it's been a full month now since we here at DARCARS Toyota Silver Spring told you fine folks about the award-winning news regarding the eco-friendly vehicles at our dealership. We don't know about you, but we're still celebrating like no other over here, because the brass at Kelley Blue Book just can't seem to get enough of our new and used cars.

Just last month, we here at DARCARS Toyota Silver Spring told you all about the award-winning news concerning our eco-friendly new and used cars. It was more than enough reason to celebrate and it was another green notch in the belt of our favorite automaker.
