My name is James Padilla. I am a business manager for Freeman Toyota. My life changed a few years back around 2018 when I met our GM Dane Minor at a restaurant he frequented and I managed for 6 years, we sort of hit it off and he invited me for an interview for a sales position. After meeting the staff and employees i knew it would be a great fit! You could feel the family bond and see the happiness from the managers and employees who work here. I started as a salesman in April of 2018 and then was given the opportunity to move into a finance position where I am now! When I tell people, we are different than any other dealership it's because I see outstanding qualities being put to work every day from the top down. We have pride and integrity with how we treat our customers. Most of we all love selling Toyotas and we have fun doing it. I am proud and honored to be a part of the Freeman family, and it would be my pleasure to help you become a part of the family as well.

OUTSTANDING experience here with Amber! From start to finish, Amber kept us informed, advocated for us, was transparent, thorough, and easy to work with. Purchasing a new car has a negative From start to finish, Amber kept us informed, advocated for us, was transparent, thorough, and easy to work with. Purchasing a new car has a negative feeling because of some exploitive practices and feeling like sales people are just trying to use you.. not here though. We had faith in Amber after my MIL purchased a car from her a few years ago, and our experience was no different. Thank you for the easy, dare I say enjoyable, car buying experience, Amber! Great experience, best price we found in the metroplex, and a vehicle ready ahead of schedule.. you can't ask for anything more. More

Sam Scarlett and James Adu fou vehicle! For over two months, I've been trying to find a vehicle, in the right colour and with certain options. Sam Scarlett and James Adu found my car, in one day! All of the folks at Freeman were so kind, patient, and helpful. I must emphasize the word, patient, as I had, and still have, many questions about my new car. Each person with whom I have dealt, has been especially friendly. I am very grateful to each of you for your part in my obtaining my first new car! I don't remember the names of all the folks, whose paths crossed mine, but, I would like to especially thank the following for their kindness and assistance. This list is no special order. God bless you all, and I pray that all goes well for each of the folks, there, at Freeman Toyota! James Adu, my Elite Salesman! Sam Scarlett, Internet Sales Director! Jackson Barlow, great Financial Services Manager! Leanna, Reception/Customer Service! Russell, the great guy in Service! Victor, another great guy in service!
