He answered all of my questions and found the car that I wanted. I am very happy with my new red Prius. I sis have to go back for a mior adjustment and I was happy with the service department. Shane, at the desk, and the gentleman who did the adjustment were very nice. It is not that I am looking forward to having my car serviced but I feel that it will be a positive experience when I do need service. More

Bought my 5th car from Russel My husband and I are both patrons of Russel. We also love the service department for all our oil changes and other car needs. I found our family in My husband and I are both patrons of Russel. We also love the service department for all our oil changes and other car needs. I found our family in need of more "leg room" for our growing teenagers in the family and traded in my 2013 hybrid camry for a 2014 hybrid avalon. Russel exceeded my expectations and gave me a great price on the trade-in, which was a vehicle I owned for 13 months only, and threw in some rebates on the 2014 avalon which made it an offer I could not refuse. Financing was fabulous--O% int for five years. Charles Wilkins is a great salesman--all told he has sold our family 3 new Toyotas!! Great guy and definitely goes the extra mile for his customers. I would definitely go back to Russel if I find myself in the market for another vehicle. I recommend you do the same. More

Extremely Happy from beginning to end To walk thru this sales process with honest trustworthy people whom I felt very comfortable with. They went far and beyond to make this sale of my 20 To walk thru this sales process with honest trustworthy people whom I felt very comfortable with. They went far and beyond to make this sale of my 2014 Toyota Camry a success. My sales agent Calvin Parnell provided his knowlede of not only the vehicles, but each and every product that Russel Toyota offered, from the appraisal of my trade in, which was not enough to pay off my previous loan, to the extended warranties to special rebate offers were just a few of what I recvd all within 1hr. Then came one of the best financing specialist every Meagan Bailey who shared with me that she had only been there a short period of time, she was extra wonderful. Devoted to making you as comfort with your monthly pymts. as possible (no dwn pymt). This team of people's were there to see my tears of joy. Something I didn't think I could do on my own. Extraordinary Confidence staff that work for you. Sign Happy as can be me KC. I love my Camry. Thanks to all that made it possible. More

Glad I found Russel Toyota This is my first time buying at Russel Toyota. I'm glad I did. My salesman, Mr. Ezequiel Ojeda was a great person to deal with. He was so knowledge This is my first time buying at Russel Toyota. I'm glad I did. My salesman, Mr. Ezequiel Ojeda was a great person to deal with. He was so knowledgeable about his products. Ezequiel is a fine example of a young man out there making a living by working hard and not sitting home waiting for his whatever --------. Ezequiel was very patient as I wanted to drive several different models. The day was Sept 2, the end of some of Toyota's incentives, therefore; the dealership was extremely busy. We had a little longer wait to see the finance manager than normal, but that was to be expected. Our finance manager, Mr. Bong Lee was also great to deal with and also very knowledgeable about his services he had to offer. One thing you have to realize is the finance manager also has to be a great sales person because they have a lot of warranty items they would love to sell you, if you need them. Very little pressure from Mr. Lee after I said I didn't want any of the extra warranties at this time. More

You will regret buying here This dealer is the textbook example of the worst case car buying experience. Called and talked to James at Russell, then went to see a new Tacoma. This dealer is the textbook example of the worst case car buying experience. Called and talked to James at Russell, then went to see a new Tacoma. I liked the truck, so I test drove it. Very bad shake in the front end at around 60 mph. Told James when I got back, and he said that he'd let the service manager know. Now we start the sit and wait games dealers play. I knew what my trade was worth, and was not willing to accept less than that. I told James this the first time he "went to talk to his boss". James comes back with a number a full $2k less than what I was willing to accept. I should have left right then!! Even after telling James what the acceptable trade number was, he still came back under. So after 4 trips to talk to his boss (each no less than 15 minutes)....he comes back with the numbers that work out pretty close to where we wanted. Classic wear you down routine, and just should have got my keys back and left then. Add in another wait... Then there is the usual undercoating, paint sealer, stain resistant treatment...etc sales pitch. Add in another wait... Then the finance guy, who had already added in upcharges. Just the usual low class dealership tactic to get you to pay more. Add in another wait.... James finally got the service manager to take the truck for a drive, and guess what....there was a vibration around 60 mph. So now it's over an hour wait (I'm being generous here) until they can get the tires balanced. Overall almost 5 hours to buy a vehicle. My last vehicle...from beginning to end....less than 2 hours. On the drive home things seemed ok, but after a few days I was able to confirm that the vibration had moved to the 65 - 70 mph range. Not as bad as before, but not right...especially for a new vehicle. I get a call for a survey from Jill, I explain the tires still are not right and she asks me if I'd like her to talk to the service manager to get it squared away. I said that would be great. Not great. Jill disappeared. I sent 4 follow up emails, none of which were answered. I spoke to Chris the GM, seemed like he wanted to help, but still no closer to making the truck right. Long story short, it took over 3 weeks of trying to get someone to do something. Finally I get a manager on the phone, and I tell him I fully regret ever walking into Russell Toyota. Now that I have his attention, I explain the problem to him. He gets me set up with a service appointment, and that I'd be expedited so I could be in and out quickly. Didn't happen. Got to my service appointment, waited over an hour before the tech started with my tires. After a test drive he could not see what was wrong. I went on a drive with him and pointed out when it happened. Tech says new tires are what will cure it. Long story short again, I guess "expedited" means over 4 1/2 hours of waiting around. Now to the kicker. Because I do maintain my vehicles well, I was checking my air pressure in the tires. Right rear has a hiss to it when I take the valve cap off. THE VALVE IN THE STEM WAS LOOSE! I've already driven over 500 miles on these tires, with my family, on vacation.....and I find a loose valve stem. I'm going to follow up with Toyota Corporate. This is the WORST buying and servicing dealership experience I've ever been witness to. We are buying my wife a new car also. Told folks at Russell this, and that it depended on the buying experience if we'd buy the second from them also. It won't be from Russell. Likely it won't be a Toyota. Not after this horrible experience. I'd like to end on that there seem to be some good people at Russell Toyota. However they are far overshadowed by the dealership process, and the majority that don't care about the customer buying / service experience. I will not be going back to Russell for anything. Hopefully Corporate Toyota will be more helpful. If not, I will never buy another one. More

sales experience I have been purchasing Toyotas from Russel for a number of years and I have only high praises, specifically with Dave Day who has been my salesperson I have been purchasing Toyotas from Russel for a number of years and I have only high praises, specifically with Dave Day who has been my salesperson for quite a while. I know when I leave with a new car that I have received the best 'deal' and will receive the best service. And I just purchased a new Camry, again! Russel is stuck with me as a customer More
