    Bought both my Toyota current models at Don McGill on Kirkwood and I-10. Never have had a problem with them. :eek: I'd recommend them.

    Swoly, you have a history of not liking me. I am not sure if you're being sincere here....

    :confused: I don't know what you're talking about, sir.

    Why would I even come close to not liking you? :eek: That is preposterous, sir.
    Do you have about 70,000+ posts within CF.net?
    Do you chastise someone for posting inappropriate stuff that your kids might read on CF.net?
    Do you have a man crush on players from Greece who wasted away every opportunity when given a chance?
    Do you never admit erroneously writing proper English in CF.net?

    What ever gave you that idea? :( I never "not like" anyone.

    they are all the same... dealers are all the same - sharks.

    but buyers are not all the same. you have a choice to be a smart buyer.

    read edmunds.com on how to buy a car. or you can get membership with costco.com and they'll guide you to get a better deal.

    (Not a Toyota Dealer)

    Just don't EVER go here http://www.helfmanford.com/

    My truck didn't have the spare or jack....my fault for not checking the spare...last thing I would have thought of checking.

    Even worse, they sold me the truck with NO air filter. I put 2,000 miles on it then decided to change the oil and air filter....and no filter. :mad:

    Man they suck.

    yup.. it's all good now. but when you enter to the finance room, things get ugly. so make sure you KNOW how to calculate numbers.

    Do you have any tips on how to take on these guys? I know it's gonna be much different once I step into the dealer.

    if you don't want to go thru all the trouble, 50 dollars will get you a costco membership andy they'll do the job for you.

    if you want to do it yourself, use edmunds.com to see how much people all over US are paying for the car that you want. when you get the number, then you'll know if the dealer is low-balling you. then when you enter the finance room, they'll try to add in some numbers..

    things that you need to know..

    1. you avg price of the car that you want.
    2. your credit score, much betterif you get preapproved from a bank.
