RAV4EVR 08-10-2005, 01:17 PM Saw it at the dealer.
Fell in love with it.....
However, I think the magazine is only for the dealers.
I emailed TOYOTA TODAY and asked if I could get the subscription.
Let's see what they say...
Do u know about it?
Bakemono 08-10-2005, 04:38 PM Never heard of it. Of course, I dont hang around the local Toyota dealer much, so Im not surprised.
Cap'n
repinS 08-10-2005, 04:42 PM I've never set foot into a Toyota dealer in my life :D
RAV4EVR 08-10-2005, 04:56 PM I've never set foot into a Toyota dealer in my life :D
Every person at the dealer knows me. That is like an evening BAR for me.. :D
84Cressida 08-11-2005, 01:34 AM I was at a dealership just today, and I didn't see it. I should write about that dealership in the Dealers section. It was a nice experience.
Lasse D 08-11-2005, 12:26 PM Sounds like a magazine I would like to subscribe to as well.
I get a Toyota magazine "Family" which is sent to all the owners. It is published about every half year with the newest Toyotas, articles about some attractions and other cultural things. Do you also get this in other countries?
Tideland Prius 08-11-2005, 03:24 PM Never seen it. What's it about?
We get an owners "magazine" (it's really more like a flyer or pamplet) called the Gazette.
toyotaholic 08-11-2005, 03:48 PM the magazine is only for dealerships....i pick one up whenever i can, awesome reading material imo
RAV4EVR 08-11-2005, 04:44 PM Well, I finally had a response from the magazine and I replied them back again. The chain of emails is below. Start from bottom.... :D
Let's see what they say....... :D

Hi %%%%%,
I do not have a dealership but I do have a Toyota flag flying on my garage and I have talked 6 of my friends into buying a Toyota. Does that qualify me for the magazine? :)

Bakemono 08-11-2005, 05:52 PM Sounds to me like you need to apply for a job at a Toyota dealership.
Cap'n
84Cressida 08-12-2005, 01:10 AM To members who work at Toyota dealers........................Are you hiring?:D
TbombsGen3 08-12-2005, 09:39 PM it is only for dealership employees....mainly sales department
always has an article about an upcoming vehicle (fj cruiser) or super salesperson, successful dealerships (texas dealership that outsold local ford dealership tundra vs F150)
just things that really only people "in the biz" would (should) find interesting
only 6 issues a year

Cap'nOnce I retire (30 years), that is where I will go.
My house will be paid off by then and I will probably liquidate my 401k and invest in a TOYOTA dealership............... Thanks for the "push" Captain and 84CRESSIDA... :thumbup:

People in BIZ ????
I wanted to lick the words off of that magazine.. I begged the dealer to make me a color photocopy of the articles/pictures so I can frame/post in my office/garage but they did not have a color printer and they did not understand why........
I will continue trying to do something about it. If I got somewhere.. I will let y'all know what to do if u r intrested.
There were people from all over the world talking about their Toyotas. A person was talking about how their Toyota Starlet "floating" design ?? saved their life in a FLOOD...
Toyotas future srategies business/financial/marketing.
Toyota involved in kids' education.

RAV4EVR 08-15-2005, 03:55 PM I did a search on GOOGLE for "toyota tech magazine" but nothing...

Do you reallllyyyy have a flag? Take a pic, I'd use it for my sig. Hell, I should do it myself but I'm too lazy:) Meanwhile, that's hilarious! Please, pretty please, post his reply back to that e-mail. ;)

Please, pretty please, post his reply back to that e-mail. ;)You are not going to believe this but I never got a reply. I am waiting to this day. She must have deleted my email. Crap..
I guess no magazine for me or any of u........
I will be STEALING them from the local dealer from now on. Last time I went there, I did not have my briefcase or my laptop case with me and I did not feel like walking out of there with that magazine in my hands...... I bet they would have questioned that.......
Next time I will hide it in my laptop case or something. :D
Does that make me a thief? I mean I tried to prescribe it but they won't honor my requests. Right?
I know it is only a magazine but it says "Toyota" on it D*** it and it has Toyota stories in it. :D
I took some pictures of my garage last week, I will post it by next week...
