    My wife and I went to Red McCombs Toyota last night to buy a used Honda CR-V Sport Touring hybrid…read morethat we saw online. I sent an inquiry in about the vehicle and a short time later I received a call(after receiving a text to ask permission to call me)from a salesperson asking if I was interested in looking at it. I was in Dallas at the time so I wasn't going to be back in San Antonio until late afternoon so I asked if he could hold the vehicle until we got there. The salesman, Max Mandavi, said he would and he would get the car ready for us to view. My wife and I were dreading the car buying experience because we've both had horrible experiences buying vehicles. For the most part the salespeople we had dealt with in the past were over aggressive and pushy but Max was the total opposite. What we were dreading turned out to be a great buying experience because of Max. He was fairly new to the dealership but he was very good at his job and the whole process didn't take very long at all. He was so helpful and had the car so clean when we got there. After agreeing on a price he sent the car to the service department to wash it again and put more gas in it. We are both happy with the car and grateful to have had Max as our salesman. If you are in the market for a vehicle, new or used, I highly recommend calling McCombs and asking for Max. I can assure you that you will be treated good! Thanks Max from Trent and Louise!

    I had an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience at Red McCombs Universal Toyota that…read morewasted my time and money. I drove over 3 hours from Houston to San Antonio because I was explicitly told by Manuel ("Manny") and another salesperson, Mike Hadley, that a 2023 Lexus RX 350 would be sold to me for $43,000-$44,000 out the door. Manny told me the day before my drive that he had spoken with his manager and that the deal would be honored--but that it would not be finalized over the phone. Based on those assurances, I made the trip. Once I arrived, Manny took me on a test drive. Afterward, he came back with the "numbers," which were not the numbers we had discussed at all. He even showed me his notepad where the originally agreed-upon price was written down, yet he proceeded to act unsure and tried to gaslight me into believing the conversation either didn't happen or wasn't clear. Then Mike Chambers (Sales Manager) came over and attempted the same tactic--asking me for text message proof or verification that the conversation occurred, despite the fact that he had just spoken with Manny moments before. This was extremely unprofessional and insulting. In the end, they quoted me a price $4,000 higher than what I was assured before making the drive. This entire situation felt deceptive and intentionally misleading, as if the goal was simply to get me into the dealership and then change the terms. This was by far the worst car-buying experience I've ever had. A 3-hour drive was completely wasted due to poor communication, lack of integrity, and bait-and-switch tactics. DO NOT GO TO THIS DEALERSHIP. If you value your time and want honest, transparent pricing, take your business elsewhere.

    I've dealt with lots of used car dealerships and my experience here was much better compared to…read moreother dealers (but still far from perfect). I note lots of negative reviews, so your mileage may vary. PROS: * Car was priced fairly. I did extensive market research and some extra math (algebra + linear regression) and they didn't overcharge what the car was worth. * They held the car for us. We negotiated remotely from Austin and it was a couple days before we could get to San Antonio to sign the papers and pick up, but they held the car for us (removed it from inventory and took it off the websites). Other dealers told us straight up that they'd sell to anyone who walked in the door. So this is a pretty significant difference. * They curiously didn't detail the car before taking pictures or prior to inspection, but *after* we decided to buy it, *then* they detailed it. There was nothing in it for them at that point since we were gonna buy anyway, but they ate the cost in order to give us a nicer vehicle. * Staffer came through the waiting area offering customers free Valentine's Day candy. A nice touch. * Not lots of B.S. fees tacked on at the end, at least on our vehicle (but that could be because I negotiated on the out-the-door price, not the sales price). * Dealer never lied to me. Many dealers I've dealt with do. The dealer I was at before this one, both the salesperson and two managers told me they were losing money at the price I negotiated with them. Come on. * I declined the extended warranty, closer asked what price would make it worth it to me, I calculated a fair price and then told him it wasn't worth saying because there's no way he'd accept a price that low, he insisted I say, so I gave him, and he made it work. (I'm intentionally not saying what it was; that wouldn't be fair to the dealer.) CONS: * I think our salesperson didn't know what an Origination Fee is on a loan. I asked him what it was and he said $225, which is the Dealer Doc Fee. Had to go to a manager to get the answer (which was; no Origination Fee). * Since we were driving in from Austin, I wanted to get the No Origination Fee in writing before we made the trip to San Antonio, so I asked for a copy of the loan agreement, but the manager said he couldn't send it until it's signed. So I asked for a copy of a blank agreement, but he wouldn't send that either. After some wrangling he finally agreed to just email me the words "No origination fee on the dealer-financed loan." Close enough, but took some effort to get this confirmation. * The Buyer's Order on the closing screen had a line item for "Sales Tax" which was higher than the actual sales tax. I quickly figured that they had added the $50 Vehicle Inventory Tax to the Sales Tax amount, but they didn't identify it that way. That is straight up illegal. The Vehicle Inventory Tax is owed by the dealer, and not by the customer. If the dealer wants to pass their own expense along to the customer that's one thing, but they can't hide that charge inside Sales Tax and call it Sales Tax when it's not. NOTE: Another reviewer was mad b/c McCombs ran his credit through several banks, each of which resulted in a hard pull on his credit report. It's not widely known, but multiple pulls for an auto loan within a 14-day period count as just one pull. All the individual pulls are *listed*, but they're all *scored together* as just one pull.
