What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Probably why his picture or name is not listed on the dealerships web site.

 

but you're not gonna bring him back by saying, "oh nevermind that number i'll give you much less." sales 101

 

Insurance company gave me 24k for my '11 4X4 Base Dbl Cab with 60k on it when it was totaled. Don't know if this info will be of any help to you but figured I'd offer the info just in case.

 

This was yesterday, but nonetheless...

 

NO!!!

good luck man. man that sucks. hope it works out in the end.

 

That would piss me off.

 

Ah, man! Sorry. Hope everyone was okay. Sucks you have to go through that. GL!

 

Totaled or it ought to be. My '11 was totaled with far less damage than that. That sucks. Hope you weren't hurt!

 

Dang. What happened???

 

rear ended at a light. i didn't see her coming and apparently my truck was invisible to her. guy behind her said she didn't even try to stop.

Everyone walked away, thank goodness.

 

That was a nice truck

 

I take a man at his word and this was his word yesterday.

 

Everett, left out that my '11 was a 4X4.

 

Been there, but it was my wife's 2006 Prius. Hit while stopped behind a bus by a car doing 45 in a 30. No injuries in our car.

Glad you're okay, and I hope their insurance company takes care of you.

 

daughter took it with my iPhone... no lens augmented... she was hanging out the window as i was crowding the inside lane/ path

 

That suckS, hope everyone is ok.

 

The lack of punctuation, grammar or professionalism is driving me crazy, and it’s not even my situation!

 

Y'all get on here and share prices and use every tool in the world to get dealers to sell to you at as little profit as possible and then complain because their salespeople aren't pro level? The truth is you want the lowest price possible. You don't want a sales person you want a facilitator. You complain if they don't know every feature of every trim level of Toyota's 15 models....while you are typically focused on just one model in just one or two trim levels and have researched the shit out of it for months. You say it's their job, sure and the pros are working for luxury brands NOT schlepping Corollas to people with 540 credit scores.

The unemployment level is crazy low, in many cases they will employ anyone with a pulse at a dealership. They will give you a shot, have you call you entire contact list and see if you can birddog a few friends and family into buying a car, sink or swim. I doubt if they will invest in any real training until you prove yourself a little.

 

ok. I’m chiming in here. I sell Toyota’s at a Toyota dealership. I sell all new at invoice. Pro, off rd or what ever. It does not matter. No number back and forth games or bs. I talk to you I say invoice (yes there is back end and finance reserve) but I am being more than fair at invoice. If you are cool with that then I demo your truck and so on. If you are a dick and offer me 6k under invoice I simply say. You want a good buy? Walk you to the door and say good bye! (Done it many times) When someone is being more than fair to you and not playing number games then respect that and buy or don’t. Very simple. I don’t go to your house and shit on your rug so don’t come to me an try that either. I work for a dealership where I am able to do what I want (a good thing-no managers need to get involved). If I need to I will go a buck into the backend of the deal but not often as invoice leaves the backend to keep lights on.
I will say that 90% that I have sold he are invoice and that is that. I even print it off to show people. If that’s not fair then go buy somewhere else. It does not bother me at all. Sold two 2020 Tacoma pros this week at invoice and they were happy as hell.
my point is be fair to the sales guy and he will be fair to you. I understand not all dealerships are like this not family run and want every penny that can get. In my opinion it really is not worth the back and forth game.
ok. I’m done. Lol

 

where do you work and when can I swing buy!?
