After dealing with production setbacks and parts shortages for most of the year, we here at Jon Lancaster Toyota are happy to bring you a little brighter piece of news regarding our favorite Japanese automaker's production. To be more precise, we're referring to the fact that Toyota recently kicked off production at its new plant in Mississippi, and the future is looking bright for its employees.

Known as Toyota Motor Manufacturing Mississippi, the plant produces the iconic Toyota Corolla, which has been seeing a rather large increase in demand lately. This surge in sales is likely due to the fact that the Corolla features an incredible fuel economy and superior build quality that ensures the vehicle will stay on the road for years to come.

Of course, we're still inclined to say that the best part of the plant's opening is the fact that it means more job for hardworking Americans; a notion that was confirmed upon the plant's opening. "Today is a great day for Blue Springs and the entire State of Mississippi," explains Governor Haley Barbour during the plant's official opening. "Toyota chose Mississippi for its dedicated, talented workforce, and I know they will enjoy great success at their newest facility. We are proud to be the home of Toyota, and we look forward to a long and successful relationship with our newest corporate partner."¹

It seems that almost every new Toyota that we come across these days is made right here in the United States. Toyota is keeping a close eye on the American economy, and the quality of their vehicles shows it. If you'd like to learn more about specific models, such as the Toyota Venza, Camry Hybrid, and FJ Cruiser, then make sure to contact us online or by phone at (800) 843-8941 today.
