Was looking to trade in my truck and get a new 4runner. Assholes in sales waste time about 3-4 hours and then show their most expensive 4runner. I called them out on their BS and when I said you have this vehilcle listed on your website still and says available, mofo says they sell 250 a month and just sold that one and website takes time to update the inventory..  

Call in 2nd day to confirm if the said vehicle is indeed in stock and again available. Walked in and other guys starts off nice and gets to original BS again. At that point I decided to play along and along and along till end of day then backed out wasting their time and potential sales.

IMO, the tires on the new ones are WAY too narrow.  They're so narrow, the whole of the vehicle looks unbalanced, IMO.

I would be pissed really bad if I were to be busy or had other plans. But nope trolling has its own priority sometimes, and going extra mile to see that pissed off look on the sales guys face was worth every minute.

You could probably have hit up 3 other dealerships and driven home in the truck you wanted for the best price you could get instead of wasting your time and some schlep salesman's time all day.

They put those narrow low profile tires on the limiteds which are full time 4wd, the only way they'll get the same mileage as the other models.

Doesn't make sense to have the best 4wd system with the worst tires on the luxury mall crawler model.

It does when you know your smart customers will replace those tires and wheels with something that isn't EPA regulation friendly (the only reason skinny tires exist on non-budget cars), and your dumb customers are buying the badge.

yep.  I can think of better things to do too.  Today I visited an extinct volcano and the rangers would not let me do a human sacrifice.  I told them that the Fire God demanded it and that if not appeased, that the world could be destroyed.  Don't blame me if no one wakes up because of the destruction of earth.

Wow, can these mofos do that and get away with it ? one of the reviews below

I was going to finance my car through my credit union at a very competitive rate. Toyota of Grapevine asked me if I will finance with Toyota if they can match it. The same night, we signed the agreement. A couple of weeks later, I received notifications from THREE banks letting me know that Toyota of Grapevine applied for loans on my behalf with each of them. When I called Toyota of Grapevine to ask why they did that. I was told that this is their business practice to see if they got me a competitive rate. I explained to them that I don't appreciate them using my personal information to apply for loans without my approval, specially that they contacted the three banks AFTER I already signed the financing agreement with Toyota. They failed to provide any logical explanation for what they did
