    Autonation Tempe. I had a terrible experience with Riverview’s service department and would never buy a vehicle from them. I’ve heard similar experiences from people who have dealt with their sales department.

    Just leased another CRV for the wife. I told them I did not want ANY dealer-added accessories. Take them off especially the pinstriping...because Honda only has a few trims the only way dealers can make more profit by adding crap on them like a wheel locks ceramic coating and the rest of the bullshit they sell for $2,000 in addition to the MSRP. they tried to make me pay $800 for it I said No Deal. So they took it off. Apparently, they wanted one more sale for the end of the month. She got a really good deal on a Touring.

    There's not much you can do about the trucks for sale on the lot other than to not buy them. If you want a "pure" truck, you have two options: 1) Find another vehicle for sale, perhaps at another dealership, that doesn't include dealer add ons, or 2) Custom order.

    Haha how did I guess. Their add on packages are a bit ridiculous. The lady at the parts department is super helpful though so I’ll usually stop in from time to time.
