Honda Plans to Cut Emissions in Half


Since Honda has no electric vehicle, the company is looking to become more environmentally friendly. And in the coming years, its cars are aimed to have its total greenhouse gas emissions by 50%. Oh, we should also mention a plug-in model will appear in 2018.

These improvements will be made primarily through the design and production process. Honda just made a $210 million investment in its Marysville plant, which will lead to 18% reduction in emissions and 66% reduction in volatile organic compounds in the painting process, according to a company statement.

Stay tuned for more information on how Honda is pulling its weight in the challenge to have a more sustainable environment.

Beloved Employee Passes


Last week a beloved fellow employee Jose Magana passed away after a brave, fierce, respectable fight with cancer. 

Jose served 8 years at our store as a valuable part of the team. He was a great example of how to do things right. His great attitude, great work ethic and reliable nature made him one of the best. Jose’s wife, son and two daughters are very proud of the way Jose fought the tough fight for the past 8 months and those of us at work were amazed at the incredible attitude Jose demonstrated through every challenge along the way.

Jose will be missed but not forgotten. Jose’s family will remain in our thoughts and prayers through this time of challenge.
