LEED Certified Toyota Dealership

Toyota announced today the opening of the nations first 'Green' Toyota Dealership in the Western USA.  Mark Miller Toyota had their grand opening today marking the first Toyota dealership to LEED-Certified.

"Anyone familiar with Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive knows there is a screen that shows the car's energy use over a time period. We'll have the same sort of panel inside the dealership that shows the building's energy use over the last half hour or so," added Miller.

Being LEED-Certified means that Mark Miller Toyota built their facility using the latest environmental technologies for a 'greener' work environment.  This translates into parts of the building being made from recycled materials, installation of high efficient cooling heating and cooling systems, and high speed service doors that cut down on the amount of air released from the building during opening and closing.
