BENNINGTON, Vt. — Fourth-grade students at Bennington Elementary School illustrated the exciting experience of purchasing a Toyota or Honda at Coggins Auto Group as part of our Junior Marketers Create an Ad series.
 
The dealership group has two locations, the Toyota/Honda dealership in Bennington and an independent store, Coggins of the Berkshires, located on East Street in Pittsfield, Mass. 
 
In this episode, students in Sara Plante's art class depicted the fun and stress free experience of purchasing a car at the Vermont location, at 751 North Bennington Road. View all their advertisements here.
 
"Our main mission is to sell and service cars the right way, help people when they need it, and support the communities that we operate in," said Valerie Harrington, Coggins marketing director. 
 
"The students really captured the excitement of buying a new vehicle and the family friendly atmosphere that we try to create here at Coggins, while helping people find exactly what they want." 
 
Coggins Auto Group offers a full spectrum of automotive services, including new and used vehicle sales, maintenance and repairs, parts, and collision repair.
 
"They did a great job showing the welcoming environment and teamwork that we call the Coggins way," Harrington said.
