From one of the coldest winters in recent memory, to another hot summer in mid-Missouri, 2014 is sure moving fast. It is hard

to believe that July is already here, the halfway point of the year. From ballparks, getaways and grilling…to pools, parks and playgrounds, it is the season for having some fun. I hope you and your family have a great time.

One event I encourage you to attend is the 62nd annual Fire in the Sky festivities, to be held again in downtown Columbia. Folks of all ages will really enjoy it. Over the holiday, you will also have the opportunity to save big on your next vehicle during our 4th of July Sale at all fifteen Joe Machens locations. We have over 6,000 new and pre-owned for you to choose from, all marked with red, white and blue discounts. What a nice way to celebrate America’s birthday.

Another celebration we are having in July is the 25th anniversary of Joe Machens Toyota Scion. We acquired the franchise in 1989 and it has been a tremendous success for us. Thanks to your patronage, it has quite literally grown into an area leader. I am very proud of what they have accomplished. You can read more about the store and the brand’s history on page M13.

Now speaking of great vehicles, you need to make plans to attend our 2nd annual CoMo VW Bug & Bus Bash, Saturday, July 19th at Joe Machens Volkswagen. It was such a hit last year, we’re doing it again. Car clubs are bringing in vintage VWs from all over the Midwest, for a day of real family fun. There will be awards, food, music and much more – and it’s free. Enter your classic car or just come out

and enjoy the excitement. If you love old Bugs and Buses, this is a must-see. Get all of the details at comobugandbusbash.com.

Here is another incredible car for you to take a look at – our cover feature, the all-new 2015 Hyundai Genesis. Completely re-designed from top to bottom, inside and out, the new Genesis is simply striking and the craftsmanship is impeccable. Hyundai really has taken this luxury automobile to a whole new level. Read more about it on page M9 and experience one for yourself today at Joe Machens Hyundai. You will be duly impressed.

Finally, as we say goodbye to June, I would like to thank all of you who participated in last month’s Drive 4 UR Community event with Joe Machens Ford Lincoln. For each test drive taken, Ford Motor Co. donated $20 to our chosen organization, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Columbia. We truly appreciate you helping us raise $6,000 for this outstanding group.

As always, I hope you enjoy this month’s issue of Machens Advantage. Feel free to let me know your thoughts. My door is always open.

marie newellJoe machens dealershipsmarketing department, graphic designer How long have you worked for the Joe machens dealerships? since august 2013.

What brought you to columbia? after college, my husband and I wanted to live in the “city” but still be close to both of our families. columbia was the natural choice since it’s halfway between my parents and his. We also got married here for the same reason in 2009.

What do you like to do for fun? I love playing with our one year old daughter, Marley, and spending time outside. My husband clayton has a motorcycle I enjoy taking rides on when we have some time to ourselves. I love taking walks or bicycle rides with our daughter and boxer-German sheppard in tow at columbia’s many parks! When the weather is not cooperating, I like window shopping at antique shops or downtown. Ideally, I’d like to spend more time traveling as well.

Accomplishment you are most proud of: My marriage. hands-down it’s what I rely on when times are tough and where I turn to when I have something to celebrate. We’re five years strong now and looking forward to eternity together.

you’d never guess that i … can stick out my tongue and touch my nose. Oh, and I designed a cookbook as my honors project in college. I sold all 26 copies!

Why i’m proud to be affiliated with the machens dealerships: Joe Machens Dealerships has grown significantly in recent years. even with their success, they also know there’s always room for improvement and aren’t afraid of change.

What brought you to columbia? The opportunity to join the Joe Machens team.

What do you like to do for fun? I have a huge passion for life. having fun in everything I do is one of my keys to success. I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I love to travel, cooking, everything outdoors and sports; from cheering on my husband during his dirt bike races, to snowboarding; from watching the st. Louis cardinals (Go cards) to the OKc Thunder and everything in between.

you’d never guess that i … I have a double. Yes, I have a twin sister named Katie.

Accomplishment you are most proud of: The memories of my proudest moments are all in reference to making my parents proud. I would not be the person I am without their support and teaching me the value of integrity, happiness, and hard work. I miss my Pops every day.

All-new 2015 Hyundai genesis SedanAs someone who commutes regularly, I wanted to test drive a fun and sporty, yet comfortable car that’s also safe and easy to drive—and the 2015 Genesis proved to be just that.

When introduced to the car, I was told it’s one step away from driving itself and I couldn’t agree more. The Genesis offered more than a handful of cool and unique features that make it a worthwhile drive.

As I pulled out from the dealership, I immediately opened the panoramic sunroof that floods the cabin with fresh air and natural light, sank into the car’s soft luxurious leather seats and used the car’s large touch screen to flip on some tunes in order to check its award-winning surround sound stereo system the salesmen had informed me about.

If you have a lead foot like myself and easily get distracted, you’ll definitely benefit from the Genesis’ lane warning departure sensor or digital warning system, in case you happen to drift from your a lane or enter a school zone.

With Tom Petty’s Free Fallin’ blaring, I found myself freely cruise into an unfamiliar Columbia neighborhood when suddenly, I

received a digital warning signal on the dash notifying me that I had entered a school zone and needed slow down. How helpful is that?

In today’s fast-paced world, I could definitely benefit from convenient options like these to help direct my attention back on the road during common daily distractions such as phone calls, putting on lipstick or trying to keep from spilling my morning coffee—and back to more important things, like letting the world fall behind as I cruise down the highway in a cool car while enjoying my favorite tunes!

As a BMW owner, it was obvious that Hyundai designed this new sedan to be comparable to the BMW 5-Series. It’s got all of the high-end features a car enthusiast would want or need: real wood interior, self-washing headlights, sun shades, a large high definition navigation screen and more, but comes at an affordable price and with an outstanding warranty.

If you’re looking for a luxurious, dependable ride that features all the bells and whistles, but is still sexy, sporty and fun to drive—I suggest you give the 2015 Genesis a whirl.

FAvoRite FeAtuReS:• 17-speaker Lexicon stereo and a premium

navigation system that includes a 9.2-inch, 720p high-definition screen and a 64-gigabyte solid-state hard drive.

• Optional lane-departure warning system that sends a subtle vibration to the steering wheel if you start to drift over the lane markers.

• Smart Trunk feature automatically recognizes when the key fob is within a few feet of the trunk—and if in range for three seconds, the lid pops open.


Yep. It’s ABucket ListKind Of Car.

Fusion is everything the name implies. The perfect blend of form, function and fun. Impeccable design. Luxurious. Sporty. Powerful yet efficient – up to 47 mpg*. And the bells and whistles you’ll actually use. Drive for yourself why so many are making Fusion must-have.

There is nothing more frustrating than dealing with wiper blades that won’t do the job. Your vehicle wiper system

keeps excessive water, snow, dirt and bugs from building up on the windshield, maintaining clear visibility. Regular replacement of these blades will keep them in proper working condi-tion. Many factors can accelerate the replace-ment interval of wipers, including operating conditions, frequency of use, material and type of wipers and sunny weather. In fact, wiper blades can deteriorate faster and need more frequent replacement during summer months due to exposure to hot temperatures. It’s a

bright idea to make sure your vehicle’s wipers and lights are working properly so others can see you and your visibility is not compromised, advises the Car Care Council.

Lights are normal wear items that require periodic inspection and replacement. The lighting system provides nighttime visibility; signals and alerts other drivers; and supplies light for viewing instruments and the vehicle’s interior. In addition to replacing dimming, rapidly blinking and non-functioning lights, the following tips can help keep you safe:• Keepheadlights,taillightsandsignallights

clean. External dirt and debris can dim oper-

ational lights from being seen by others.• Makesurethatyourheadlightsareproperly

aimed. Misaimed headlights blind other driv-ers and reduce your ability to see the road.

• Don’toverdriveyourheadlights;youshouldbe able to stop inside the illuminated area, otherwise you are creating a blind crash area in front of your vehicle.

• Ifthereisanydoubtonwhetherornotyourheadlights should be on, turn them on. Lights not only help you see better in early twilight, they also make it easier for other drivers to see you. Source: www.carcarecouncil.org

it’s clearCar owners should check wiper blades and lights regularly

A year later, its first move came - from Vandiver to 900 Bernadette. 1999 - Office Space was in theaters, and the firstToyotahybridwasintheU.S.Kidswere all about Nintendo hand-helds in 2004, while kids-at-heart raved about the new Scion brand at Joe Machens Toyota. 2013 - Selfies were the biggest trend, Blurred Lines the biggest tune and the sparkling new Joe Machens Toyota Scion store was the biggest of its kind in the state.

25 years and still on the grow. Oh what a feeling.

With a sleek new exterior and premium interior features designed to make driving more functional and fun for

families, it’s no surprise that the all-new 2014 Toyota Highlander was named Activity Vehicle of Texas at the Texas Auto Writers Association’s (TAWA) annual Auto Roundup event.

During the spring event held at the Texas Motor Speedway, more than 50 TAWA members gathered to drive and vote on vehicles in seventeen different categories. The annual event is a way for TAWA members to experience vehicles on road and track courses from manufacturers across the globe – in one place, at one time.

The all-new, 270-horsepower Toyota Highlander sport utility vehicle (SUV) is a no-compromise, midsize, three-row SUV that brings together the best in style, technology, comfort, capability, and safety. Its exterior design conveys both refinement and strength, which complements a totally redesigned interior that raises the bar in its segment and is a huge hit with active families.

With three-row seating for up to eight, an array of standard features, a host of available in-cabin technologies, and increased cargo capacity, the new Highlander offers a nuanced balance of style, comfort and utility. The total package is capped off with three powertrain choices: a fuel-efficient 2.7- liter four-cylinder engine, a powerful 3.5-liter V6 with a new six-speed transmission that will produce excellent all-around capability, and a V6-powered Hybrid Synergy Drive powertrain that delivers fewer emissions and segment-leading miles-per-gallon for a three-row mid-size SUV.

Ford, America’s truck leader for 37 years, marks a major milestone with the sale of its500,000th3.5-literV6EcoBoost®-

equipped F-150.Just more than three years after its

introduction, popularity of Ford’s 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine continues to grow among F-150 customers as its cumulative fuel savings continue to increase.

In the past 38 months, F-150 EcoBoost owners collectively have saved an estimated 56.8 million gallons of gas on an annual basis. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, that’s equal to:

The annual greenhouse gas impact of • 413,895acresofU.S.forests• Acityinwhich70,000homesgoingwithout

electricity for a year • 6,685tankertrucks’worthofgasoline• Installing139windturbines

For the fourth month in a row, more than 57 percent of retail sales of Ford F-150 light-duty trucks are powered by V6 engines – reversing 47 years of V8 engine dominance in the industry. More than 45 percent of these

sales are trucks equipped with Ford’s 3.5-liter EcoBoost.

Over the last three years, retail registrations of light-duty pickups powered by V6 engines grew more than 600 percent, with F-150 directly responsible for 91 percent of that growth, based on Ford analysis of Polk retail registration data.

The segment-exclusive technologies built into every EcoBoost engine, including turbocharging and direct fuel injection, are particularly relevant for truck customers. This combination of turbocharging and direct fuel injection delivers a wealth of low-end torque and maintains it across a broad rpm range, which is key in towing applications.

The 3.5-liter EcoBoost truck engine delivers 420 lb.-ft. of torque and 365 horsepower to enable towing of up to 11,300 pounds – more than enough to tow a fully loaded, three-horse trailer or a large boat. Plus, this engine does it all on regular fuel and with outstanding fuel economy.

In the last three years, no competitor has eclipsed a 20 percent take rate for V6 engines in half-ton trucks. It’s been a predominantly

V8 crowd, until the introduction of the Ford EcoBoost V6.

That efficiency a V6 engine delivers is starting to have a significant impact on the environment. By moving half a million F-150 customers out of V8s and into V6 engines, Ford has saved more than 56 million gallons of fuel – more than all of the fuel saved from every electric and plug-in electric car ever sold.*

Along with the 3.5-liter Ti-VCT and 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engines, the all-new 2015 Ford F-150 will offer a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine with standard Auto Start-Stop, built in Lima, Ohio.

Production of EcoBoost is supported, in part, by Ford’s green partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy. Ford has 11 facilities in the U.S., including retooling of Cleveland Engine Plant where EcoBoost is made, participating in the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program. This green loan program helped to develop advanced technologies and strengthen American manufacturing across the country.

I loved my experience with Joe Machens. My car salesman, Brad Davis, went above and beyond to help me get into my 2013 Focus and continues to go above and beyond to make sure I stay satisfied with my purchase! I referred a friend to him and he took good care of her too! I recommend everyone who needs a new car to go see him! :)

Simply put, a gallon of diesel lasts longer than a gallon of gas. If you hitch your wagon to a new 2014 Ram 1500

with our industry-exclusive 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine, you’ll get the best fuel economy of any full-size pickup –

up to 28 highway mpg. Drive 100 miles a day? That’s 36,500 miles a year. With EcoDiesel, you’ll need 14 fewer

fill-ups and save about $585 in fuel. Not to mention you go further on a single tank. That’s no bull. It’s a Ram.

LET OUR DIESEL DO IT.

Take power trip to beast town. The available power of the award-winning 283-horsepower 3.6L Pentastar® V6 also just happens to be a part of America’s most affordable V6 car*. It’s also safe, smart and secure. And really good looking. No wonder it’s the fastest growing vehicle in its class*.

*Based on the latest edition of Automotive News and mid-sized vehicle segment. Excludes other Chrysler Group LLC vehicles.
