Putnam Toyota Review By Rebecca A.

I recently purchased a new Prius from these folks. I originally thought I was going to do the Costco or AAA route, but was shocked the prices weren't better and the salespeople claimed they couldn't do any better and were unwilling to negotiate. I noticed Putnam had the exact color and trim combo I wanted (based on their website). I requested a quote and was put in touch with Jeff. He got in touch with me via email right away. A couple of hours of exchanging emails and one phone call later, I was at the dealership getting my Prius. Their price was the best low maintenance negotiation price I found - a good $1000+ less than the Costco price. I didn't push the negotiation too much because I was just over it and after doing research, found it to be a fair enough price. But Jeff was totally nice, relaxed, and cool. The car and paperwork were ready when I got there (as much as they can do ahead of time). I dreaded going through the car-buying process since the last time I purchased a car, the salesmen were desperately looking over my shoulder for some sort of male figure to talk to and kept throwing gender driving stereotypes in my direction (classy and smart). This was about as painless as it gets - I told Jeff what I wanted and he made it happen without asking to speak to my husband, dad, uncle, boyfriend, 7 year old son (you get the point). Jeff gets it. To me, purchasing a car is up there with making funeral arrangements. This experience brought it down quite a few notches. Highly recommended for an otherwise dreadful task.
