Not a horrible experience Ed made our new car purchase as pleasant as possible, He was able to explain the features and the mechanics of our new 2014 Prius in detail. There had Ed made our new car purchase as pleasant as possible, He was able to explain the features and the mechanics of our new 2014 Prius in detail. There had been quite a few changes from our 2008 Prius and it is good to know that if we do have a question he will be there to help in the future. Ed's interactions with us were professional and he was aware of our limitations and was willing to work in order to achieve a price that we felt was fair. If anyone says that the price that they pay for a car is outstanding they had to have received it for free....Good is a price in which both the buyer and dealership should try to achieve. No one wants to pay too much, but they sure don't want to feel taken advantage of nor does the dealership want to just break even. Ed has the right to earn a living as well as the dealership being able to do so as well. We still hate the 4 square boxes that every car dealer uses and feel that is the worst part of buying a car. It should be much simpler...this is what I can and am willing to pay (in an out right sale or payments) with add ons etc, can you as the dealership do this? Yes or No? simple...Not, the constant running back and forth for approval and counter offers. Overall Ed was great to work with and we will use him if need arises in the future. More
2014 Prius We just purchased a 2014 Prius from Phil Meador Toyota in Pocatello, Idaho, and it was a very pleasant experience. Let me clarify--it was as pleasa We just purchased a 2014 Prius from Phil Meador Toyota in Pocatello, Idaho, and it was a very pleasant experience. Let me clarify--it was as pleasant as buying a car can be, like going to the dentist and not having any cavities pleasant. Our salesperson, William Roth, is a knowledgable, personable, and patient man. My husband, Gary, stopped at the dealership earlier in the week, met William, and told him what we might like in a new car. Will went to work and found a match for our needs at a dealership in Twin Falls. When Gary took me into the dealership on Thursday, Will met us in the parking lot, greeted Gary by name, and shook our hands. He had a copy of the details of the car in Twin and lead us to a 2014 Prius on the lot that he said would be comparable to the one we were interested in buying. We have been happily driving our 2007 Prius for the past five years, so Will just had to fill us in on the changes Toyota has made in the last few years. Though both Gary and I have been very happy with our Prius, Gary has constantly teased me that the smooth-talking salesperson who sold me the 2007 Prius took advantage of me and charged me an extra $5,000.00 because I was a naive woman who didn’t know any better. Translation: I didn’t bring him along and bought the car on my own! I assured Gary, that Joe Leedgaard was an honest man, and went on the explain that I got my extra 5,000. out of Joe because I had his cell number on speed dial and in the first six months after buying the car, Joe changed my flat tire, jump started my Prius three times, and took me to work so I wouldn’t be late! But I digress... William started his tutorial with the 2014 Navigation System, and his patience must have been sorely tested. Will: “Push the talking head on the steering wheel and after the beep, choose the destination line and wait for instructions.” Me immediately after pushing the talking head: “3312 Golden Avenue, Pocatello, Idaho.” Will: “Good. Next time wait for the beep.” Me after the beep, slowly saying address while yelling at the sun visor, “3312 Golden Avenue, Pocatello, Idaho.” Voice on the wheel: “Florida.” Me: “No, you idiot machine, Idaho.” Voice on the wheel: “Florida.” Will: “Okay, just hit the hang up button on the wheel. You did great. This time try talking just like you would to me with no pauses. Also, did you notice the microphone up by the dome lights? Just face straight ahead and speak naturally.” Me, calmly with no pauses: “3312 Golden Ave. Pocatello, Idaho.” Will: Excellent! Now let’s try that after you push the talking head on the wheel and hear the beep.” William patiently answered all of our questions about the 2014 Prius, took us for a test drive, and worked with the finance folks to present an offer that even Gary felt was fair, and we left the dealership having purchased a new car. When our new car was delivered, William, after what must have seemed like hours in the dentist’s chair for him, successfully helped us enter fourteen addresses in the navigation system, synced both our phones to bluetooth (with barely a chuckle at our non-smart, flip phones), transferred all our phone contacts to the system, and set up our audio system with our selected radio stations, including satellite radio. In conclusion, we were extremely pleased to be treated so kindly by William Roth and all those we worked with at Phil Meador. Smooth-talking Joe even took time out of his busy schedule to talk with us, give us dinner at the Sandpiper, and make sure Will’s cell number was in my speed dial! :) Thank you for all of your help in finding us our new car!

Purchase of new 2014 Toyota 4Runner Limited My husband and I have been looking to purchase a new vehicle for several months. After looking in Elko, Nevada, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Lander, Wyo My husband and I have been looking to purchase a new vehicle for several months. After looking in Elko, Nevada, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Lander, Wyoming, we checked out our local dealership. William Roth went overboard trying to help us. William found exactly the vehicle we wanted (outside color, and leather seat color as well). We were very pleased with the discounts and quote we received and we are very pleased with our new vehicle. We really felt like our business was wanted and everyone, especially William, went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and welcome. We expect to give them all of our business in the years to come. More

little red corolla I went in looking at small, used cars that would get good gas mileage. You had a used red corolla (no sunroof and light colored interior) so with Ale I went in looking at small, used cars that would get good gas mileage. You had a used red corolla (no sunroof and light colored interior) so with Alex's assistance I took it for a ride. It was nice and I seriously considered buying that one. I was on lunch break but decided to come back afterwards. Alex was busy with a customer so Tony went with me while I drove it again. I told him that I change cars about every 3 years or so and he suggested leasing. We talked about it but I said if I was going to do that then I want a red one with a sunroof. With some help from the other associates they found me one. They had it trucked in and a few days later I drove away in my pretty, little, red Toyota corolla with the sunroof. Although Tony would not get into the truck so I could see how big it was (even with coaxing from his fellow associates), I still had a wonderful experience with everyone there and am very happy with my little red car (with sunroof). Thank you all so much for making life easier. Lisa Smith More
