Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Last year's truck model sitting on lot. Offered a "great deal" because it is last year's model and they need to sell it fast.

After 4 hrs in the showroom (beyond closing time) the deal is closed. Held trade in vehicle keys so that we could not get away and think about deal. Deal on the paperwork is different to the verbal deal. They say additional amount includes the interest payments (lie).

No going back once paperwork signed. When con is detected the next day the staff (and tricky Ricky Evans himself) become aggressive.

Who in their right mind pays over full sticker price for last year's vehicle ? Evans toyota Suzuki expects you to believe that this is the norm.

Toyota USA were NO help, backing up their crooked dealer. BBB no help either - Evans is a contributer, so they get BBB protection.

The word in the area is that Evans have ripped off a lot of people on both new and used vehicles. How do they stay in business ?

People like you buy from them. So you have to ask yourself: "WHY did you buy?" 1. List every possible error or shortfall in your thinking or behavior. Because you are who you are, and this will happen again if you do not answer the question "WHY did you buy?" 2. Then figure out how to correct your thinking or behavior to avoid every possible personal error or shortfall you have identified. I would suggest this "seed" list 1. You did not research EXACTLY what you wanted. 1.1 Maybe you just 'wandered in' to see 'what they had' and the 'shiny new wheels got you excited'. [This is more the rule than the exception.] 1.2 You did not look at the new vehicle window disclosure sticker and notice that it denoted last year's model. 2. You stayed waaaayyyy too long. 3. You were passive when they kept your keys. 4. You talked trade-in before setting the purchase price. 5. The "Deal on the paperwork is different than the verbal deal". Now lets face it: If #5 could not MAKE you leave IMMEDIATELY, then you had better get really serious about coming to an understanding about yourself and your behavior. Example: Could you be "New Vehicle Crazy"? Many people are. You must discover what susceptabilities you have that put you into this situation, because simply avoiding Evans Toyota Suzuki will NOT solve your problem. There is an endless supply of ruthless dealers waiting around the corner for you. You will not live long enough to be ripped-off by 10% of them.
