Special GX 460 Allocation from Lexus!

Hurry now to secure one of only two available GX 460s in Kansas!  Lexus built these two vehicles and is sending them to us due to our strong pre-sale of the GX 460.  Since these two vehicles do not match what our Guests have already ordered, they are available on a first come, first purchase basis.

In addition, these two GX 460s are also available at special introductory pricing!

Never before have we been able to offer the HOTTEST Lexus vehicle this early in it’s release!

It’s Official! Thanks to YOU!

Our customers, that is.  We were just informed by Lexus that we had achieved a perfect 100 rating with our guests for 2009 Certified Pre-Owned Sales.  We were number one out of 229 Lexus Retailers Nationwide.  This was a team accomplishment for our dealership from top management all the way down to the guys that prep the vehicles for delivery.

It means the hard work and attention to details we set forth to achieve at the end of 2008 were worth every moment we put into your Certified Pre-Owned vehicle.  You can share in our accomplishment by knowing that not only did you purchase one of the best Pre-Owned vehicles in the world, you purchased it from the best Retailer in the United States.

Thank you!

Movie Review – Sherlock Holmes (PG-13)

Sherlock Holmes was one of the most interesting films I have seen his year.  Robert Downey, Jr. portrays him as a man that is unbelievably brilliant, almost disturbed, in how he interacts with those around him.

I was surprised with the level of fighting and mayhem in this movie.  Not that it was a bad thing, it was not what I expected.  I thought the movie captured the late 1800’s very well, right down to the look of the streets and costumes.  In fact, the streets were so gritty you could almost smell them!

I do not want to give plot away, suffice to say there are surprises and twists.  The love interest and interesting relationship between Holmes and Watson help you to connect with each of the characters in a way that makes you genuinely care for them and what happens to them.

I highly recommend this film and if I had an official rating system, I would give it 5 gears out of 6…

Recipe – Taco Poppers

1 – Bag of Tostito’s Scoops

1- Pound of Ground Meat (Turkey works GREAT!)

1 – Package of Taco Seasoning

1 – Cup diced onions

1 – Cup shredded lettuce

1 – 12 oz pkg frozen corn

1 – 8 oz package of cheese

Hot Sauce to taste

Prepare ground meat and onions according to Taco Seasoning instructions.  While the ground meat is simmering, arrange Scoops in a single layer in a baking dish or tray.  After meat is cooked, layer the Taco Poppers as follows starting with the bottom and working up:

Corn, Meat/onions, lettuce, cheese, and hot sauce (if wanted).

We use these as appetizers or make a double batch for use as a main course.  My kids love to make these since we let them help make them!
