Had great internet price and dealer followed thru on initial sale. John (Internet manager) was friendly and good to work with and Mike Collins at the dealership took the time on a late Sat evening (alm initial sale. John (Internet manager) was friendly and good to work with and Mike Collins at the dealership took the time on a late Sat evening (almost closing time)to wok thru the paper work and get us the correct price as promised. Was a little disappointed that the car was not detailed properly since we had been working for over a week but not a huge deal. Mike Collins personally had the car washed and helped us out. Overall a great experience. More
Would also like to mention LOU Caldrello, salesman who sold us our past vehicles. He goes over and beyond to satisfy his customers. As long as he is working at Charles Toyota, he is who I would contact sold us our past vehicles. He goes over and beyond to satisfy his customers.

I found TJ to be upfront and honest, he asked questions about what i was looking for and recommended a test drive, his selection of vehicle to drive was based on what i told him i was looking for.

Sales and Finance departments were great. Chris is a very nice salesperson that allows the quality Toyota products to shine. He doesn't turn off customers with a pushy presentation or deception. Chris very nice salesperson that allows the quality Toyota products to shine. He doesn't turn off customers with a pushy presentation or deception. Chris and the quality Toyota product are the main reasons I went with Charles Toyota and are the bases for the high score categories. The low score in quality of work was solely due to the condition of the car after undercoating and I will probably take my car to another dealer for maintenance in the future (overspray on the sides of the car from undercoating that initially wasn't cleaned up until I identified it, dirt on the inside door handle and a stain on the brand new leather/suede front drivers seat from the body shop mechanic).

We recently purchased a Certifed used Car from Charles Toyota. We had the pleasure of Dealing with Art Bruce. Art is the exact opposite of what you expect from a salesman. Not once during our visit/tes Toyota. We had the pleasure of Dealing with Art Bruce. Art is the exact opposite of what you expect from a salesman. Not once during our visit/test drive did he ever try to sell us the car. I never felt pressured. I even told him that I was going to take the weekend to discuss the car with my wife and I would get back to him on Monday. He just shook our hands and took us at our word. He didn't try to pull any sales tricks to try to make us buy the car that day or anything. On Monday I called him and we negotiated a fair price and again I did not feel uncomfortable during this process. Art remained professional throughout everything. He even drove the car down to my own mechanic for him to take a look at before we finalized the purchase. To me this was a huge deal because it meant that they had nothing to hide if they were willing to let an outside mechanic look at it. The gentleman who handled all of our financing and warranty information was extremely professional also, he never tried to sell us any extra warranties or services we didn't need. I only have one complaint and that is the website is very misleading. The car that I purchased showed up on the website as a certified vehicle. Only to find out that when you get there that in fact it had not been certified yet. The Sales Manage Dan tried to tell me that it would be an additional $550 to certify the car. I explained to Art that I felt that was a deceptive practice and he went to Tommy who is the General Sales Manager and they agreed to waive the fee. I still question the validity of the fee when the website clearly already had the vehicle as being certified. None the less Art helped us out with that as well. In the beginning I was not looking forward to doing business with a car dealership but in the end the over all experience was fine and I feel it is due to Art. He was professional the entire time he never pressured us and did everything he said he was going to do for us. I would reccomend this dealership and I would VERY STRONGLY reccomend asking for Art as your salesman if you want a smooth pressure free process. More
As a longtime customer of Charles Toyota (I and other family as well as friends have purchased vehicles from your dealership over the years)I continue to revisit your dealership as it is #1convenient,#2 family as well as friends have purchased vehicles from your dealership over the years)I continue to revisit your dealership as it is #1convenient,#2 backed by Toyota quality products and #3 as a person involved in the vehicle maintenance service business all my working career I understand how difficult it can be to be rated as excellent consistantly. The average consumer comes to you with expectations...often due to business demands it isn't alway possible to meet all of them but that being said I appreciate that your sales and service people try to strive towards a 100% satisfaction rating. Thanks again for your service and support. Sincerely. Michael S. Reilly More

He explained each and every feature of the car carefully before I actually drove out of the dealership.

Mike collins the salesman was incredible! He welcomed me at the door. He made sure I felt like the most important person in the room. Several other salesmen said hello and congraulated me on my purchase. at the door. He made sure I felt like the most important person in the room. Several other salesmen said hello and congraulated me on my purchase. Dan the new sales manager sat with me and went over numbers to make sure the deal happened and I was satisfied. Christian, the finance manager, went through several scenarios with me and made sure I understood every detail of the financing and worked numbers until i felt comfortable. This was a great experience and I would recommend these folks to my friends and family! More
