Putnam Toyota Review By Marc C.

I focused on Putnam for my purchase of an Avalon Hybrid after really reading the Yelp reviews. A friend purchased a car at a different area Toyota dealer and gave them a B. Sorry, but I'm looking for A-class service. I am doubly happy that Abdul Asalati was standing out front when I approached the dealership. He showed me their inventory and knowledgeably explained the ins and outs of various models. I'm not sure his management wants to hear this, but he actually pointed out the most economical cars that met my criteria! For the test drive, he encouraged driving to my home town (Half Moon Bay), saying "you must decide what you want based on your experience of driving." (We didn't quite do that, though I did take it up to Skyline.) By the way, Abdul has quite a background. You may want to ask about his movie appearance with Robert Mitchum... I did my due diligence reaching out to a number of Toyota dealers, including online queries. Abdul and Putnam Toyota did their job, making me a solid offer on the car I was interested in. I had deliberately waited until late in the model year to go after the car I wanted; I note that Putnam had not one but two of the specific cars I was searching for, while many dealers had none. I'll update this as we move into the servicing phase of the relationship, but for now, Abdul and Putnam fully deserve a five-star salute.
