I finally found it and Joe spring into action, he got me a great deal on the truck and he kept me in the loop with every step of the process and gave me updates daily on the truck and next steps. I couldn't be more happy with the service and attention I received from Joe. Thank you Joe and Toyota of North Austin for making a dream come true. More

I seriously question the authenticity of your claim to military service. Your hollow statement about how you “wouldn’t sell a car you wouldn’t give to your [insert every relative and battle buddy under th military service. Your hollow statement about how you “wouldn’t sell a car you wouldn’t give to your [insert every relative and battle buddy under the sun]” is not just laughable—it’s insulting. Do not dare wrap yourself in the flag or parade around borrowed valor to cover for your lack of integrity. You demean actual veterans when you invoke that kind of rhetoric while knowingly pushing a lemon on me. Let’s be honest: you didn’t just push—you pressured, manipulated, and yelled at me and my wife. You tried to intimidate us into buying a vehicle that your dealership clearly knew was in poor condition. That’s not salesmanship—that’s predatory behavior. You are an embarrassment to the profession and a shining example of why used car salesmen have the reputation they do. Your actions have permanently branded Toyota of North Austin as a dishonest operation in my mind—a con job hiding behind a corporate logo. Thankfully, I had the foresight to purchase the extended warranty—something I now fully expect to need. And rest assured, I will never set foot in your dealership again. In fact, I’ll be steering clear of all Group 1 Automotive locations—because if your conduct is any indication of how they operate, then the whole organization is a plague on the industry. You should be ashamed. More

I was put in touch with Jose through a mutual friend while I was looking for a new car. I had the easiest car buying experience I’ve ever had. I looked at the dealer website for the exact models I was l while I was looking for a new car. I had the easiest car buying experience I’ve ever had. I looked at the dealer website for the exact models I was looking at and I had the numbers for both models in 30 minutes WITHOUT having to be there. I liked what I saw , stopped by, text drove the Tacoma TRD sport , had the keys and was home in 1.5 hours. Insane to think about. Everything was exactly as stated. Not a single difference from what he said to what I saw on paper. Even Lorenzo in finance was amazing. After my 3 years is up, I’ll be back y’all. 10/10 excellent working with you jose, and thank you Toyota of north Austin! More
