Unfortunately, I am only able to rate my experience as it appears I wasn't good enough to talk to -- on 2 occasions. I moved to Canada last year and just got my PR. I also have 2 puppies and starting to get summer and winter gear and wanting to plant roots. I decided to look for my first new SUV. I was really interested in the RAV4.

On 2 occasions, the exact same thing happened. I showed up in casual jeans and tee-shirt. The second time, I pulled into the parking area where a salesman gave me his judgmental look as I stepped out of my car. I spent over 30 minutes in and out of RAV4s in the showroom before seeing what was outside and returning to the showroom. Not once was I even greeted by the receptionists -- in all fairness, they may have never seen me. But there were MANY salespersons who looked right at me, some more than once, and not even a single hello. I appreciate the giving me space to look and see, but after 30 minutes, you'd think someone would just say hi. One salesman even sat as his desk and turned his chair around after looking at me.

Needless to say, I walked out. Drove to a Hyundai dealership and was greeted by a receptionist. After 15 minutes of looking at a Tucson, unbeknown to me, the dealer manager walked up, said hello, offered a drink, and asked if I had any questions. I said I need some time to look more and he let me be. When I was ready, I found him and he connected me with a sales guy. I bought a 2020 Hyundai Tucson Luxury.

I guess my only advice to Toyota on the Park is that I know $200K+/yr is enough to buy a car -- but we still like to dress comfortably. You know what they say about books and covers, right?
