The mountain got faster, the competition got fiercer, and the finish line came even quicker!

Kendall Toyota of Anchorage was thrilled to cheer on riders as they tackled Race 2 of Hilltop’s King & Queen of the Hill downhill race series. From start gate to finish line, competitors left it all on the course, battling for valuable points and a chance to claim this year’s royal titles.

With just one race remaining, the pressure is on! Every second counts as riders prepare for the final showdown that will determine who earns the crowns of King and Queen of the Hill.

Congratulations to all of our Race 2 winners! We can’t wait to see everyone back on the mountain for one last ride. The finish line is in sight… and the crown is still anyone’s to win!

The race for the crown is officially underway!

Kendall Toyota of Anchorage was excited to join Hilltop Ski Area for this year’s Bike Fest and the kickoff of the King & Queen of the Hill downhill race series. The day was packed with excitement—from high-speed E-bike races and adorable Strider races to the thrilling first downhill showdown of the three-race series.

Round One champions have officially been crowned, but the competition is just heating up as riders battle for the coveted titles of King and Queen of the Hill. Participants who committed to all three races also scored this year’s exclusive Party Shirt, making the season even more memorable.

Congratulations to all of our Round One winners! We can’t wait to see everyone back on the mountain for Race 2. Let the race for the crown continue!

Sometimes the smallest acts of kindness make the biggest difference.

Kendall Subaru of Fairbanks was honored to partner with the J. Michael Carroll Cancer Center and Blood Cancer United to bring a little extra comfort to patients undergoing cancer treatment. Together, we distributed cozy blankets to provide warmth, offer encouragement, and remind them that our community is standing beside them every step of the way.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and helped make this special day possible. Your compassion and generosity wrapped our patients in more than just blankets—they wrapped them in hope, support, and care.

At Kendall, we’re proud to partner with organizations that make a meaningful difference and to help spread comfort, one blanket at a time.

Thank you to all the competitors, spectators, and volunteers who made this year’s Hero Games a success!

This year’s event was a true test of strength and endurance as teams battled it out for the chance to earn a donation on behalf of a military or first-responder nonprofit of their choice.

Dinosaurs roamed Alaska from Soldotna to Anchorage and one final stomp in Wasilla. Our 3 Kendall For Alaska stores had one mission: to take a bite out of childhood hunger! While school is out for summer break, we want Alaska’s youth to be having fun in the sun, not worried about the meals they are missing. Thank you to our team in Wasilla for being that last stop on the journey and for making the event such a fun day!

Kendall Ford of Anchorage was our next stomp on our din0-venture across Alaska! Dinosaur dessert bar, tricycle races, and a whole lot of meals raised! We were excited to invite the Food Bank of Alaska to join us and receive 6000 meals! Thank you, Daniel, for joining in with our team and starting the tricycle races!

Kendall Ford of Soldotna was excited to welcome Miss Rodeo Alaska, Emily, to the 2026 Soldotna Rodeo season! We were proud to partner with the Soldotna Equestrian Association and host a table at the rodeo festivities.

One of the highlights of the day was providing little tiaras so Miss Rodeo Alaska could crown rodeo princesses for the day. We also had a great time deputizing young Kendall Auto “Sheriffs of the Kenai Peninsula” with their very own badges!

From squishy bulls to ringing cowbells, we hope everyone had a fantastic time at the rodeo. As this year’s Bull Sponsor, we’re excited for all the action, excitement, and community fun still to come throughout the season.

Thank you, Emily, for spending the day with us—we can’t wait to see everyone at the next rodeo event!

This year, we rolled up our sleeves, unleashed the dinosaurs, and entered the Battle of the Potties at the Alaska Run for Women—and we’re dino-mite excited to announce that our Jurassic Potty took home 1st Place!

With over 5,000 participants and an estimated $250,000 raised in the fight against breast cancer, the event was packed with incredible energy, community spirit, and some seriously creative competition. Out of 22 potty-tastic teams, our prehistoric masterpiece stomped its way to victory!

A huge shoutout to Teresa, the mastermind behind the Jurassic magic. From the larger-than-life ideas to every tiny dino detail, your creativity, hard work, and dedication turned an ordinary porta-potty into a Jurassic destination. Let’s be honest—this may be the only porta-potty people were actually excited to stand in line for!

Kendall Ford of Soldotna just went full Jurassic for a great cause, and the results are dino-mite

Thanks to our amazing community, we raised 5,000 meals and collected 330 pounds of food to help support kids on the Kenai Peninsula this summer!

Did you know that 1 in 5 children face food insecurity when school is out? That’s a T-Rex-sized challenge, but together we made a stomping HUGE difference!

From tiny raptors to mighty brontosauruses (and everyone in between), our community showed up in a BIG way to help ensure local kids have access to nutritious meals all summer long.

🦴 5,000 meals raised
🦴 330 pounds of food collected
🦴 Countless lives impacted

Thank you to everyone who donated, shared, cheered us on, and helped us turn compassion into action. You helped prove that when a community comes together, we can make extinction-level problems a little less scary.

The food drive may be over, but the impact will live on all summer long.

From all of us at Kendall Ford of Soldotna: THANK YOU for helping us stomp out childhood hunger!

Kendall Auto of the Kenai Peninsula was honored to sponsor this year’s KSRM Radio Group St. Jude Radiothon and Country Cares for Kids. Together, we helped raise an incredible $90,514 in support of St. Jude and its mission to never turn away a child because of a family’s inability to pay for medical care.

Our team had the amazing opportunity to join the DJs and connect with the community about this incredible cause. Callers from across the Kenai Peninsula rallied around these children, making a meaningful impact and showing the power of generosity in our community.
