    In direct contract to the "Dealers to Avoid" thread, let's hear about your VERY POSITIVE dealership experiences. If you received exceptional service, a great deal, or had other very positive experiences with a dealer, let's hear about it! These are the dealers we should be supporting!

    If your dealer experience was OK, nothing special, please don't post comments here.

    If you don't have direct experience with a particular dealer, please don't post comments.

    Please don't post comments just to post comments. Let's use this thread as a clean repository of useful information that doesn't require looking through 5 pages of garbage for every 1 useful post.

    If you see a dealer listed that you had a similar experience with, simply "like" the post that's already up instead of making a duplicate. The more likes a post has, the more data to support the posters comments.

    That said, please use the following format:

    City, State
    Dealership Name

    Praise Title (i.e. "Exceptional Sales Team!")
    Praise Details.

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    Houston (ish), Texas
    Demontrond Toyota

    Got me the truck I wanted without the runaround, pressured sales, and relentless calls

    Burlingame Toyota in Burlingame, CA. (near san Francisco) was good. I don't have any experience with their service dept and I can't speak for all the people there but the sales guy I dealt with was legit. I think his name was Eric - I remember he was the internet fleet manager. Anyway, super cool dude. Made the whole thing easy and BS free.

    The first dealership I went to was a total fail. It was actually the first time I went to a dealership since being in the northeast. Second dealership however was rad, in and out, very accommodating. My salesman was freakin hilarious. He had been in the biz for a month, was a total airhead, and had taken this job because his last job fired him for hitting an AIRPLANE with a FORKLIFT. I actually had fun this go around.

    For my wife's new 2015 Venza we went with Twin City Toyota in Herculaneum Mo.
    For my new 2016 Tacoma, I purchased it at KC Summers Toyota in Mattoon, IL.
    After dealing with the bozo Toyota dealers in the metro St. Louis area, the above two dealers were some of the best car buying experiences we've had lately. A bit of a drive but well worth it.

    Atkinson Toyota in Bryan/College Station, TX is really good and mechanics are nice. Very friendly. Joe Myers in Houston is fast even when busy. Most of the workers are very friendly

    Sorry Mako, but I have to go with Weiss Toyota in St. Louis and , specifically, Mike Collins. No pressure, great to work with.

    I bought from Kelton Hayes (internet sales)

    Great salesman. No bait and switch. Streamlined sales system and outstanding pricing.

    I was just going to say Autonation Toyota, but in St Pete. Lakeland Toyota for purchase, but their service department is downright awful!
