Anyone got good or bad stories about Toyota dealerships?

In July of 2008, I tried to preorder my 09 5 door. I spoke with dealers all over CT and NY, with almost all of them telling me that there was not going to be a 5 door and that I should just buy one of the 3 doors on their lot. It really left me with a bad taste for quite a few of them.

I ended up ordering mine from Tri-State Toyota in Dudley, MA at the recommendation of a friend of mine who is the sales manager for a Ford dealership and who bought his wife's Corolla from them. I was completely happy with my experience with them.

A close second was A-1 Toyota in New Haven. They actually agreed with the upcoming 5 door and would have been willing to pre-order for me, if I hadn't already gotten my order in with Tri-State. They also followed up with me, once they had 5 doors on the lot.

The one that I was the most disgusted with was Greentree in Danbury. They really came across as the slimy car salespeople type.
