About Us

Why come to work for San Marcos Toyota? San Marcos Toyota has been providing Exceptional Customer Service to their clients here in the Texas Hill Country since the store originally opened up back in 1999. In 2020, the store changed hands and was purchased by the Keating Auto Group. Since then, the store has grown by leaps and bounds. San Marcos Toyota is located just off Interstate 35 in Comal County and is sandwiched right between the 7th most populous city in America, San Antonio, which is about 40 minutes to the South of the store and the Texas State Capital, Austin, which is about 40 minutes to the North. San Marcos Toyota finds itself surrounded by some of the fastest growing communities in Texas, like New Braunfels which is just a few minutes away. We serve incredible communities like Seguin, Selma, Cibolo, Dripping Springs, Wimberly, Kyle, Buda and Lockhardt. The Parts and Service Departments have had explosive growth over the last several years and have had the largest growth in technician count of any Toyota dealer in the region. We have also had an incredible amount of Repair Order growth and are leading the entire region in Customer count increases, year over year. With all of this growth, we have to hire from outside our community, however, we prefer to grow our technicians internally, and so we are heavily invested in the local High Schools, as well as the Toyota T-TEN automotive technician training program at the Austin Community College in Round Rock, which is about an hour away from the store. If you are looking for a career in the automotive industry and want to be treated like family, come see what San Marcos Toyota has to offer you!
