Dealerships in Salt Lake

Anybody know of a decent one? Mi Madre wants to pickup a 2005 4Runner V8 Limited 4x4.

Suggestions?

I would definitely AVOID any Larry Miller or Karl Malone stealership unless a screaming deal is made. Keep an eye on Menlove and Mark Miller (they are still dealers...).

Mark Miller did well by me when I had some minor mechanicals in Dinosaur National Monument... I drove from there to SLC with various parts duct taped to the rig and they fixed it all up for free (easy stuff; I just didn't have the right tools with me).

So no clue on their sales, but the dealership has my vote for service!

Thanks guys, I had my oil changed twice at Mark Miller and everybody there seemed to be very friendly (not like it's an indication of their REAL service).

We COULD buy a Toyota in Wyoming, but likely get ripped off as the local "Toyota" dealer also sells GMC's and at any given time has no more than 10 yotas on the lot.

I wonder how their internet sales are? The reason being is I would likely be driving her QX4 down there myself and coming back with a REAL SUV, and I'd like them to have what I (she) wants in stock.
EDIT:
What's bad about Karl Malone? They seem to have the best selection, and friendley faces.

I recommend Mark Miller Toyota. Ask for Roger Parkin, he is the sales manager, and a very good guy.

My dad has bought:
91 Tercel for my bros grad present
92 Tercel for my sis grad present
93 Camry for my mom
96 4Runner for himself

Then my sister bought her 2002 Camry from them

I bought my 1997 4Runner from them also.

Menlove "the last of the little guys", is ok... I don't like how they hassle people to get a car. I love their parts department, those guys are really cool.


If you head down to SLC, give me a ring. (PM me for my cell #) and I will take you for a spin in my s/c 4Runner.

Give them a call and tell them what you want. If they don't have it, and another dealer does, they will do a dealer trade. My sister wanted a 2002 Camry V6 LE with traction control, but they only had white and light brown, which were her last choices. Mark Miller did a car trade with, I think Menlove, and got her the sage green for the price already negotiated.

With that said, since we have 5 dealers from Ogden to Sandy, you should be able to get the 4Runner you want.
