Kris Boatwright
2009 Employee of the Year
I’m Kris Boatwright and I’m a Service Department cashier and receptionist at Toyota of Des Moines.
I started working here in September of 2006. I’ve been married to the same wonderful man for 30 years, have two amazing sons, and a beautiful one-year-old grandson. After 12 years of working at a small, friendly, neighborhood auto repair shop, I thought it might be rather intimidating to work at a large dealership. Boy, was I wrong! I was warmly welcomed into the “Toyota Family,” and I soon began to realize what a privilege it was to be a part of this extraordinary group of people! These are some of the most hard-working people I’ve ever met, but they always take the time to show their customers and co-workers how much they truly care. There is such a positive and friendly attitude here, and it is contagious!

The Tempting World of Discount Paint and Bodywork
The price might be right, but the cost down the road will more than make up for any apparent savings.
There are few things more disheartening than walking up to your vehicle in a parking lot only to realize that someone has put a sizeable ding or dent in its side, or perhaps used your bumpers as feelers during an aborted parking attempt. Even worse is having to deal with the type of damage left behind by someone carelessly rear ending you at a stoplight, especially if their love tap was hard enough to crack bumper covers and displace sheet metal.
