    This is fine since he's just saying he got a new job. Any further promotion will require contacting Danny.

    Congrats on your new job.

    I am not sure exactly how she did it, but Dianne Whitmire seems to be an exception to the "no commercial self-promotion" here. I know she has a long-standing reputation for providing honest, great service, but she still is an exception to the rule.

    Too bad your not selling Tesla, since some on here believe Toyota folks are jumping ship to Tesla...:) Congrats on the new job.

    Congratulations on the job!

    By all means keep us posted on how it goes.....inasmuch as you meet Danny's posting and Toyota's PR policies.
    Remember that you now represent BOTH Toyota owners as a member of PC and you also represent many thousands of employees at big T.....some of whom who now pay for you to do silly things like eat and sleep indoors.

    In the statistically very unlikely event that you're one of the 0.00000001 percent of dealership employees that do not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate these activities in your peers.....I wish you fair winds and following seas.

    Ok @philip kim don’t create multiple threads. That is exactly what I said not to do.

    Dealers are allowed to promote only after approval from Danny. There are several others that are on the list but I haven’t seen seen them a long time.

    This rule is in place to prevent PriusChat from being Craigslist or Kijiji.

    i think what most dealer salespeople find when they try promoting here is that the training they receive to deceive does not work with informed buyers.

    dianne deals in honesty and hard work, a trait unbeknownst among most sales people and even fewer car salespeople.
    but even she has her detractors because some believe that on top of service, knowledge and inventory, she should always have the lowest price as well.

    I will do my best to make everyone here happy. I’m not just trying to promote and only sell cars to you guys. Just sharing, even if I can help one person out in getting a good deal or give info on Prius or other Cars, I will do my best.

    Of course I think the "Tesla Model 3" should now be called the "Tentla Model 3".
    I wonder if Tesla owners brag how their Model 3 was made in the "real" building, unlike that guy's Model 3, who was made in the tent...

    ... as long as you're following the forum rules.

    Since Danny has not been seen here in a while, good luck getting his approval to post here, though.

    I think the dealers forum is here. Dealers & Pricing | PriusChat

    I doubt Prime users would be your prime customers for a while. Toyotas are more dependable than that. ;)
