I have worked for Elk Grove Toyota since I turned 18 years old. I have worked my way up through every department to become a sales manager where I truly feel I can help people the most. I enjoy the people I work with. Most of all I enjoy helping people make one of the biggest purchases they may make in their lives.

Thanks Elk Grove Toyota Met PATRICK who helped pick out our car and then met John one of the finance guy and they sealed the deal! Patrick and John were both very patient Met PATRICK who helped pick out our car and then met John one of the finance guy and they sealed the deal! Patrick and John were both very patient and I think the greatest thing was their sense of humor because my family and I liked to joke around a lot. Glad they understand sarcasm and yet all jokes aside got us out of there with the car we wanted. Patrick even called after for a follow and said if we wanted to tint our windows, he has a contact for us, which I thought was amazing customer service. Give him a 10 for his customer service for being effective and efficient. Also Janette (sorry if I spelled that wrong) she showed us all the features on our car at the end after handing me my keys. I thought that was a nice touch and John the manager came by to congratulate us and say bye. Those were unexpected since my last car buying (from somewhere else) didn't offer that. My visit and purchase was very nice and we got the car! :) More

Elk Grove Toyota makes it easy Buying a vehicle every so many years can be very stressful but meeting up with the folks at EGToyota can make the process less so. I met with Linda D Buying a vehicle every so many years can be very stressful but meeting up with the folks at EGToyota can make the process less so. I met with Linda Dang to purchase a Toyota Highlander. We test drove the vehicle, she pointed out all the controls etc and never pushed the sale as at so many other places. She made me comfortable and at ease, we negotiated, arrived at a price and made the deal. A smooth and easy transaction. Not only the sales staff, but I met John the finance man and appreciated his explaining all options and again never pushing but explaining the options available. I have to compliment Samanth Walling, the customer relation person, she explained all the many controls, and there are many. Her easy going manner, her way of explain how to use the controls made me at ease and hopefully remembering all she showed me. She did tell me I could return at any time and have her explain anything I missed. Customer Service at its best. All in all a good, smooth experience., probably do it again in 5 years or so.
