    Anyone have good or bad experiences with specific New Jersey dealers? I am planning on buying a 2010 Prius once as soon as I can but don't want to go to a dealer that is known for giving headaches.

    I live right by Sansone Toyota on Route 1 so it would be the easiest for me

    Last year I have dealt with the Internet sales department at Gateway Toyota in Toms River and they were very good. I was there for a test drive and some pricing and they were not high pressure at all. I did not buy the Prius and they just asked me to come to them first if i was interested in the future. There was no double or triple team sales tactics and a fat sales manager trying to close the deal. I will be going back when the 2010 arrives, this time ready to buy.

    I am surprised anyone had a good word about Liberty. My experience with them was very bad. They play games and will not give you a firm price. They high presure you and keep switching you off to other people. Even their online department will not commit to any numbers.

    Prestige I was considering.. I went to their Mini dealer before deciding on the Prius and they were VERY nice and didn't play any games. They also give you a car if you need to bring yours in for service.. but again, unfortunately they are so far away from Woodbridge that I couldn't go their for service, just to purchase.
