Bought 2 vehicles and will always buy my cars from Shepards. Happy with James as my salesman, he went out of his way to make sure my experience was excellent

This was my first time buying a truck and Armando and everyone at Shepard made the experience so easy and straight forward. They got me in the exact truck I wanted and were just wonderful people to work with. Next time I need a new vehicle, no doubt I'm going back to Shepard.

We've purchased one car and take two cars in for service to Shepard Toyota. The service advisors and sales team were all and continue to be very friendly and willing to go above and beyond when necessary.

John Carter went above and beyond to ensure my experience, from beginning to end, was a positive one. Thanks again John!

I recently got all 4 tires and alignment handled here, as well as a control arm replacement. I prefer to have my vehicle serviced at Shepard, for the quality of service and value of the work they provide. They even gave me a loaner vehicle for the weekend, truly grateful. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Bill Carr went above and beyond searching for a vehicle for me. Even though he is not a salesman but the sales manager, he spent several days searching for a hard to find highlander. He kept me informed throughout the process.And when the first one fell through , he continued to search with success. He is always polite and asks questions and follows through.

It has been a pleasure buying my car at Shepard Toyota. Excellent prices without unknown add-ons and family run which is noticed. Worked with David Y, who has great communication and very thorough. Also worked with Bill C, also with excellent communication and very easy to work with. This team is top notch and suggest buying from them. I bought my vehicle and I live in Florida. I recommend this dealer to anyone. Thank you Shepard’s team for everything with the best customer service and prices too!!!

Awesome staff great service got the vehicles me and my fiance wanted highly recommended.

David was great! This was my first new vehicle purchase and he was personable, knowledgeable and able to answer all my questions. He really made the process fun and easy. Thank you David!

I want to thank both James Bacon-DeWalt and Bill Carr who worked together to put together a great deal for my daughter to purchase a 2024 Toyota Sequoia. They did an excellent job, professional yet easy going and a no nonsense/no stress approach. Too often we here complaints about a Sales or Service Experience, so I wanted to take the opportunity to acknowledge a job well done and My daughter is one happy customer.

Amazing Experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hands down the best car-buying experience I’ve ever had! The team at Shepard Toyota , David Young and Bill Carr were friendly, HONEST and incredibly helpful from start to finish. No pressure, no stress—just great service and a great deal. I drove off in my new Prius with a huge smile on my face. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top notch service and a dealership that cares!

Outstanding Car Purchase. This dealership was good to work with, honest, and willing to bring in the exact car for me. The communication was excellent. All Around PERFECT. Love the new Toyota Corolla Hatchback. Shout Out to my 2 salespeople James Dewalt and David Young. If you need a Toyota is the area, this is the dealership to go to!

I recently visited Shepard Toyota in Rockland, Me. I was interested in purchasing a vehicle for my son and was directed to salesman James Bacon-DeWalt. I provided James with my budget and expectations for purchasing the Toyota 4Runner. James, with his straightforward, transparent, and upfront approach, added a personal touch to our negotiations. His affable personality and professional conduct throughout our discussions made me feel valued as a customer. It was James who convinced me to have my son drive off the lot with the 4Runner.

I suggest that management give James a huge shout-out at the next sales meeting; he deserves recognition for his connection to the customer and his effective sales style.

Shepard Toyota are some of the most respectful People I have dealt with, when need some help with questions. Thank-You.

We just purchased a 2024 Toyota. Bryan Rogers was an excellent salesman and made the process of buying a car easy. We had alot of questions as we are on a budget. He was very good at getting those questions answered. He was friendly, courteous and he even bought us lunch while we waited. I would recommend this place to friends!!

I bought a beautiful GMC Canyon Denali today at Shepherd Toyota in Rockland Maine . It was the best experience iI have ever had buying a car and I’m walking out to my new truck smiling.. Mike Bryant, miracle worker, along with the wonderful Dean Hale , found me the perfect truck and worked very hard to make sure I was happy, and that it hit every need on my wish list. Good truck, good price and great people. What more could I ask for? Lynn Tierney Owls Head

I had such a smooth and pleasant experience buying a car with Shepard Toyota in Thomaston. I felt welcome and didn’t feel any of the pressure I expected out of a transaction of this kind. Gaige Anna were patient and informative with any question I had and I trust their answers. Thank you!I love my new car!

We called ahead to look at a used truck, Mack took the call and we made an appointment. Mack had the truck ready to test drive when we arrived. Ultimately, the truck wasn't what we wanted, Mack listened to our needs and showed us a few new trucks. We really liked one of them! The dealership was able to get us a fair trade in value and the finance team put together a great package. Mack stayed well past closing to help us get aquatinted with all the bells and whistles. We love our new 2024 Tacoma! Thank you Mack ... Read More

Toyota does not build custom vehicles, but Armando was happy to work with me to find a build that had the specifications I wanted and have it ordered and delivered to the dealership for me. I got exactly the trim, color, and engine I wanted and Armando was happy to answer all of my question on the journey from build to delivery. Thank you!

I had a flat tire today and it turns out I had a nail in it. They couldn't have helped me any quicker and were so friendly and great through all of this!!!! I highly recommend them!!! Wish I could give even more stars!

Awesome dealership with great sales and service

I had a warning light suddenly appear on the dashboard of my Audi convertible. They clearly explained all the warranty plans and warranty options at the time of purchase. I wondered if all the warranties were needed at the time and am now thankful I decided to purchase the warranty plans. So, I drove into Shepards and before I knew it I was in a rental, service had addressed the issue and was fairly major. They told me not to worry about a thing and they would tell me when the work was completed. They took care of everything and ... Read More

Worked remotely with Corey on a RAV4 purchase for my parents. In short, Corey was awesome. He was super responsive, flexible, understanding, and very helpful at delivery and beyond. He took great care of our purchase and my family before during and after the deal was done.

This place was a breath of fresh air for me as car dealerships in this area go. I received help almost immediately and the salesman (Armando) was able to locate the exact vehicle I wanted - a 2024, gas-powered RAV4. Once we found the correct vehicle the financing process was smooth, to the point, and conducted in a warm, friendly manner by both Armando and Bill Jr. In around 2.5 hours I had shown up, traded in my old vehicle, financed my '24 Rav4, and driven off in it with a GREAT (better than great) interest rate and monthly payment.

Awesome, friendly staff!

Salesman James was wonderful took the time answered all my questions. I got everything I wanted.

I put an application online for used vehicle they called me immediately asked what I was looking for I said something on the low mileage side something dependable and all-wheel drive they were awesome they made me feel at ease and I bought a 2020 Chevrolet Equinox with 40,000 miles on it and beautiful condition at a very reasonable price the staff was wonderful very helpful I have bought many cars over the years i rate this place is being the best to buy a vehicle from

Corey in sales is knowledgeable and a joy to work with. He made our first dealership experience smooth and transparent. We bought a used hybrid Rav4 that's perfect for our family. I highly recommend talking to Corey!

very personable, very helpful, good place

A very pleasant experience buying a vehicle from here. Thorough, down to earth and kind staff. Thank you, Corey and Anna for your help 🙂

The sales staff was super friendly and helped explain the entire process from start to finish. There were no gimmicks, no "pushy sales tactics", everyone was honest and straight forward with what our options were. Super satisfied with our new truck!

We purchased a new Rav 4 hybrid today. Mack Duke was our salesman and he was professional , knowledgeable and available to help with the whole process. He made our trade in and purchase seamless and fun. Corey Robinson also helped with setting up our bluetooth connection and he was patient and professional. Thank you to both of these gentlemen for a great experience. Normajean and Frank

In the past two weeks we have had questions regarding our two Toyota cars. The older one showed off & on warning lights on the dash which indicated possible brake problem. It was not immediately evident what the problem was but they did take our car immediately and gave me a loaner. The problem was detected and solved. Our other car was recently purchased. We had some questions on various operations with this car. Frank immediately came out and we sat in the car together while we went over our questions…extremely helpful!

I have both my vehicles serviced here. I have never been disappointed.

Got me in for a screw in the tire .... was the only place around that could do it that day

They didn’t answer my calls and delayed service for weeks. After checking it out they said the car wasn’t worth fixing. Got it fixed under warranty with a third party and works fine now. Would not recommend the service department as they are impossible to reach on the phone and unhelpful.

While on our first day of vacation a rock pierced the tire. Shepard Toyota fixed it in just a few hours. They also gave us a loaner so we didn't have to wait. The staff were very friendly and went above and beyond to help us.

Andy in service was wonderful. Got us in for a quick fix before a long road trip. Definitely recommend.

Super duper people that work there. Very knowledgeable and friendly, easy to work with.Aces across the boards!!!!!

No pressure. Great selection. See Gaige for your next ride and Bill Jr for financing needs. Great experience.

SERVICE WITH SMILE!!! BOUGHT THE LAST 2 OF 8 TOYOTAS WITH THEM. GREAT CREW!!!

If you need a vehicle go see these guys. Top notch service and no pressure. Go see Gaige, or anyone of the fantastic sales team.

Great staff, great service!

We weren't really planning to buy a car that day but I do like the Camry a lot. However, we find the manual to be less than helpful. In fact, it's extremely confusing.

Night new and they have been excellent at follow ups.

My wife and I had been discussing purchasing a truck but like most dreaded the thought of going and looking ... in the past it seemed no matter what you were guaranteed to loose a whole day to complete the process. We came across this truck listed on Shepard Toyota website and it seemed to check all the boxes for what we were looking for so we took the plunge and reached out to talk about buying the truck.

We came across this truck listed on Shepard Toyota website and it seemed to check all the boxes for what we were looking for so we took the plunge and reached out to talk about buying the truck. I have to say this was the fastest and simplest vehicle purchase we have ever made. Corey was great, he kept in touch every step of the way and Bill was there to wrap the deal up for us ... they took care of the paperwork with our lender, they gave us the trade in amount we were looking to get and the final numbers were right where we wanted to be for the total purchase and monthly payment. They contacted us and we went to our lender and then to Shepard and all we had to do was sign the paperwork ... the whole process took a few hour(s) in total from start to finish on our part. We got the truck home and a few day(s) after having it the battery died, I reached out to Bill and Corey and they told me "no worries" they sent out a tow truck and had it hauled back to the dealership and a new battery was put in and a diagnostic scan was done to make sure there was no other problems and we were back up and running in a day. If you see something on their lot I would recommend going in and talking with Bill and Corey or any of the other members of the team ... I know if the need for another vehicle pops up we'll go there first!

Nice people working in service dept. I’ll go back.

The whole service team here went the extra mile to assess, diagnose, and repair my vehicle. They further answered ally questions patiently and intelligently, providing me with valuable insight and information about my car, how it works, and how best to care for it. They truly excelled!

Service was done quickly and satisfactorily. Called for an appointment for an oil change and tire rotation. Disappointed it took 30 days before the appointment could be scheduled.

Not too bad of a place... I have a Tundra that had the frame recall, they replaced my frame and other things they noticed along the way at cost... no issues there...Just recently took my truck there for some maintenance... they found more things along the way, the bill was up there... but its a dealership you gotta expect to pay big 💰 there. But even so they gave me a pretty good discount... they took care of me pretty good there...So I'm not even mad at that... Once they completed the work they took it for a ... Read More

Great experience buying a car at Shepard Toyota! Bill and his son were helpful, informative and no pressure. They have a good range of available vehicles at fair prices.

Austin did a great job keeping me updated on how things were going trading in my old car and getting a new one. Darryl (I can't say enough about him). He went beyond what I expected to get me the car I wanted for the price I wanted.

Buying my past two vehicles at Shepard Toyota, working with both Bill's on their team was a easy process, no funny business or outlandish markups. They treat you like family, providing a seamless buying experience at a fair market price. Highly recommend purchasing through Shepard, and getting your vehicles worked on by them, best dealership to deal with in the State of Maine. Thank you for making my Highlander purchase such a easy experience.

Just purchased a new vehicle with Kris McMahon at Shepard Toyota. Incredibly smooth experience, very happy with my purchase. Kris walked me through all the features and how to use them on my new car. Super impressed!

Kris and the rest of the team did an amazing job! I will definitely be recommending Shepard Toyota to anyone looking for a vehicle!!

We're at the shepherd collision for auto repair they did a fantastic job 👏 great service 👏 👍

1 word DEALERSHIP should I say anymore

We recently took in a 2015 Toyota Tundra for new brakes. Due to undiagnosable issues, the first bake job was not quite right, but Shephard's management stepped up to make sure that in end, we were 100% satisfied. Thanks for all your hard work and not giving up to work it all out.

“The salesman Austin was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful with getting me into my 2022 Jeep Compass Latitude 4x4! The process was quick and painless. They delivered my vehicle to my house the next day! Go to Shepard Cars…they take care of you!”

Go see Kris the sales guy

Salesman Steve put up with my high energy,, and endless questions.. We enjoyed a no pressure sales atmosphere and appreciated the full transparency. Weeks after we purchased our 2017 f150 Ecoboost.., Steve followed up with a couple messages making sure we were happy and found a good fit. Can't say enough about how wonderful the overall experience was purchasing a vehicle at Shepard!!! They earned our business and loyalty for years to come

Bought a used vehicle at the beginning of March this year. Would have to say that I find it pretty sad when you pay 30 thousand+ for a used vehicle, only to get it home and find out it was basically spit shined and sent out the door. Found moldy pretzels under the front seat, along with packets from a chinese restaurant that were god knows how old. Backseat had something in the seatbelts folds that was either crusted up dog puke or mac n cheese,possibly both.Then went to use air conditioner,empty! Had to already have it serviced ... Read More

Backseat had something in the seatbelts folds that was either crusted up dog puke or mac n cheese,possibly both.Then went to use air conditioner,empty! Had to already have it serviced and gone over! Mentioned to my mechanic an odd noise, pulley or water pump! Makes me truly wonder if it was ever checked over by the service dept, at all! Typical used car salesman.I should have done my due diligence and tried everything the first day I brought it home! Felt like I could trust them, know better now!

I worked with Bill and Bill jr. on my new car purchase and they were absolutely amazing and friendly and i would suggest coming here to absolutely anyone!

A great team of associates at Shepherd Toyota....I'd recommend calling and asking for Corey if you are buying a new or used vehicle. Very patient and informative and a lot of fun too. The general manager took time and stopped by to introduce himself, also other associates were pleasant and genuine while talking to you while you waited....a true family feel. I have worked at six different dealerships and purchased at probably 20....this was the best experience HANDS DOWN!

SUPER STOKED to be driving a truck home. Huge thank you to Ian and Bill for making this happen. We will be returning again when the wife needs a new vehicle and when the kids are driving.

While driving home from Maine to Virginia, our check engine light turned on. We called in desperation and they saw us immediately. Ran a diagnostic, and everything was actually fine. They where very knowledgeable and kind, will come back in a heart beat. Professional and understanding.

Excellent Experience! Steven was great to deal with and has followed several times since the sale to check in! Very happy with my truck! Highly Recommend doing business here!

Great people.

Bill Carr Sr and Jr are the best.. 5 stars for them!!!

Shepard is my dealership for my Toyota. They have a very professional service and body shop. Prices are fair. They work as quickly as possible all the time. I have had positive experiences 100% of the time after a dozen appointments. Recently, I needed a loaner. They had that service. I truly am grateful and thankful for that. I highly recommend Shepard Toyota.

Had a great experience purchasing my 2020 Cherokee thank you Austin for everything and being more then willing to work with the very little time I had to do so!

Im very late on sharing this but I went there to get a car last year and the associate Peter was very helpful and helped me find the car I was looking for with no problems. Excellent service and very professional.

My family and I got locked out of our car at the storage units across the street. Brett and Hayden were an incredible help to get us back into an older Toyota Avalon. They went out do their way to help us. Cannot thank them enough!!

Sales man was excellant. Explained all I needed to know to make a purchase. No high pressure. Very Happy with my 2021 Ram 2500 Diesel. Will be back in 3 years. Service department is also very good.

Kris in the sale department was amazing. I would highly recommend working with Shepard Toyota. It was a fantastic experience.

I've only dealt with the parts department but very helpful. A couple of times they have told me I needed another part with the parts I'm getting... They have been write everytime so that saves trip and hassle, and that's awesome.

Had routine oil change and fuel pump replaced due to recall. Very friendly and quick service.

Peter was polite and helpful. I drove well over an hour to look at a used Prius but it wasn't up to snuff. But they were honest and I will shop there in the future.

We drove almost 3 hrs to Shepard Toyota to purchase a sweet 2018 Toyota Carmy Se. which we absolutely love. Peter and Bill Carr Jr are top notch #1 guys. I recommend Shepard Toyota for anyone looking for a great deal.A++++++++++
