     Three years ago, I bought my Toyota Camry Hybrid, and I love it just as much today, as I did when I purchased it. One of my favorite features is the push button starter.  Because of the arthritic condition in my hands, I am unable to turn an ignition….so the push button starter is superb, and enables me to be able to drive a car.  I also like the fact that all I need is the key in my posssesion, and the doors and trunk unlock automatically.   Being one who has a history of locking my keys in my car, and having to call the locksmith to come unlock my doors, I am thrilled to state that it can’t happen with my car.  It is not possible to lock my car if the key is inside the car.  How marvelous can that be?

      I am also impressed with the quiet engine, and other motorists appreciate it as well, as they drive on city streets….not having to hear loud engines at the wee hours of the morning.  Other features I enjoy is the high gas mileage this car gets, the smooth and comfortable ride, and the fact that my Camry hardly suffered a dent last year when we were rear ended by some teenagers who were traveling 60 mph in a 25 mph zone.

       Last, but certainly not least, my personal opinion is that the service at Toyota of Des Moines cannot be matched by any other car dealer in this area.  They have always been there for me when I needed them, and have been courteous, friendly and patient with me at all times.  If I should ever decide to buy another car, it will be a Toyota at Toyota of Des Moines.

I have bought several cars from Toyota of Des Moines. These are the reasons why. 1) They sell Toyotas and we have had good experiences with them. They are economical and reliable and really hold their value which makes them inexpensive to own. 2) Professionalism. I like the way I am treated with respect when I am in their dealership. 3)They respect my time. I know in a matter of minutes whether we can come to terms. They don't play hold the customer's keys or make trip after trip back to the sales mgr. to " wear me down". 4) They have good prices on their vehicles and offer fair trade in money. Buying a car at Toyota of Des Moines is not a stressful anxiety filled process but rather an enjoyable experience where you can leave feeling like you were respected and got a good deal on a great car. If I didn't believe these words I wouldn't have bought so many cars from them ( it's in the double digits now ) or recommended them to so many friends and family.

I want to thank you for being so swift in finding my RAV4 after my frustrating experience at another Toyota Dealership. I was upset, and when I called you made sure to get me the car I wanted almost immediately...and I do appreciate all that you did to get it to me! Also thank you for keeping in constant contact with me throughout the waiting process. I realize I was excited to get the car but you were always making sure to keep me in the loop and/or answer questions I had throughout the process! Thank you for making this experience a positive one and for working with me to find a price I could afford in the car I really wanted!
Thank you --

Wow!  What a wonderful car buying experience!!! If you are in the market for a Toyota, I highly recommend Toyota of Des Moines. They are awesome! I got a very fair trade-in amount for my car and an awesome deal on my new Toyota Corolla Sport, better than I'd ever hoped for! This is a great dealership to work with and I dealt with one of the best salesman ever!  Everyone at the dealership is very pleasant, honest and fair to deal with.  I was treated with respect and valued as a customer.  It was definitely worth the drive from Cedar Falls to work with them on my new car purchase.  Thank you!

Before I bought my new Toyota Tacoma, I did my homework. I searched the web site for specifics and then I called the dealership. The first thing I noticed was the receptionist.  She was very professional yet warm.  When I asked her for a salesperson, she said "It would my pleasure to transfer you to the salesperson". Very impressive!!
 
I talked to the salesperson and he was sooooo helpful in getting me what I wanted, called me back when I had questions, and was very easy to work with.  The same was true for the person doing the financial part and the parts guy was awesome in getting me aquainted with my truck!!
 
I also had the good fortune to meet the president of this dealership and was able to tell him what a great business he has and extremely wonderful employees!!
 
A very satisfied customer,

I've purchased three vehicles from you and Des Moines Toyota during my time living in Des Moines. I have always felt at ease strolling your dealership. Your service department has always been great and they don't commit to something they can't deliver. Your professionalism, knowledge of your products and simple friendship make doing business with you a pleasure. Your dealership adds value to the car buying experience and to me that makes the difference.

"Wow!  I just leased my first Toyota, a 2010 snazzy red Corolla and am I glad that I did.  The whole procedure was very professional, yet I felt no pressure to complete the transaction, as sometimes happens.  My salesperson was just fantastic!  She knew her facts, but her great personality came through and that meant so much to me.  The financial manager explained everything in very clear and understandable terms.  When I picked up the car I really appreciated the delivery person who explained all the ins and outs of my new purchase.  The people I had contact with were all very nice and friendly.  This has been a great experience and I'm happy to be a member of the Toyota family!"
