    Abe at Toyota of Newnan

    Truck was just delivered. DCSB TRD Sport. Only option is tow package.

    1. They actually negotiated with me via email. I picked up the phone once in the beginning to let them know I wasn't wasting their time, but that was it. It might not sound like a big deal, but with my current life and work schedule, this was huge.

    2. They didn't bullsh*t me. Not about options or about price. They found the truck I wanted and had it within a week. They offered a great price right off the bat, and then came down a little more.

    I honestly can't believe that it was this easy. With all the other stuff I've posted about terrible salesmen in other threads, I felt like I should brag on my pal Abe at Toyota of Newnan (Georgia). If you are within reasonable distance, definitely, DEFINITELY give them a shot.

    Oh, and...

    I bought my truck the same way, (through email) Ron Gooding was the guy I dealt with. No dealer cost's. I told him in an email I wanted $22,000 for my 2015 Colorado and he said, "O.K. you got it." Bought it site unseen. He told me the price I needed to write the check for and I drove over one day and test drove it. Told him I wanted it and went back the next day and made the deal. Easy, smooth, transaction.

    I gave just over $25,000 for the Colorado. That is a good price for a 6 month old truck with less than 2,000 miles on it. And I'm glad it is gone. :)

    Up here in Canada, I had an amazingly great experience with http://toyotaofancaster.ca/ .

    If anyone is looking and in that area, go and ask for Roxanne. She was by far the best sales person that I have ever dealt with.

    Congrats OP! Wish mine was that easy, mine had a couple hours of negotiating, BS sales tactics, and me walking out before they budged on price.

    There are a handful of GREAT dealers out there not taking advantage of buyers and the lack of inventory.

    Not many.....

    Keep in mind my 'great price' is relative to my area.

    But, 4x2 TRD Sport SB, tow package only: 31,000 plus taxes.
