I bought my Titan at Mike Erdman too back in the end of Jan. The price was so right I did'nt even have a chance to talk smak. I was expecting to pay 34-35k for an LE 4x4 Crew with Nav after negotiating down but the first price the lobbed at me was 32. I did a SlingBlade "Aight den" and started signin papers.

Just found this thread. I internet shopped about two weeks and found two Titans I wanted, one in Lakeland with offroad pkg and one at LakeNissan in Leesburg with big tow package. You had to really look around for 4X4. I bought from LakeNissan, cash and would rate them 7ish. I live about an hour south so the brake recall was done by Universal Nissan. I would rate them a solid 8, very happy with their work. I have looked at the shops of Reed and Classic and would never send anyone to them. LakeNissan's shop looks good but have never been back after the purchase.
My 2 cents

[gary748]

I went to all the dealerships in the Central Florida area...before purchasing my Titan. The following is my experience with each of them.

Classic Nissan-WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!! HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!! I will never purchase ANYTHING from them.
Reed Nissan-O.K.
Bill Ray-Good seem to be honest.
Universal Nissan-Great Dealer and Service Department. This is the dealer I purchased from.

I purchased my titan from reed in orlando, and did it via the internet also. I really can't complain because I got an 04 se 4x4 valued at 31000 out
the door for 18500. Course I had a previous vehicle I had purchased from them ( 00 frontier ) as a trade in, plus I went in late november right after the
hurricanes when they were dying to break even. If you do go there ask for sam or eric, they do look out for you. At least as much as a car salesman can ,ha ha. As for service so far so good. Chris seems to be helpful and I have had the 'final brake fix ' and recently axle problems. All in all I would
suggest to do as much research on your new vehicle and your trade in.And
if you are a returning customer that has got to mean something .$$.

I also get my service done there too, they seem knowledgable and their "VIP" club thingy I somehow got enrolled in gives me oil changes for $9.95!

I rate that dealer a 9. Very friendly staff, salesman was great. No shananigans whatsoever.

I bought mine from Lokey via Ebay... Best price on a 06 XE I have ever seen! No one could touch it within 3G's. Sent me the paperwork I signed it sent the cashiers check, flew down and the salesman picked me up at the airport once at the dealership it took 20 minutes and off to NM I went. I love this truck!

ENDICOTT NISSAN POMPANO BEACH FLORIDA...
IF THERE WAS SOMETHING UNDER 1 LIKE ZERO THEY WILL HAVE IT.
TERRIBLE ALL THE WAY.

SERVICE= 0
SALESMAN=2
FINACING DEPARTMENT=3 LIKE THE RATE I GOT
MANAGEMENT=0
AVERAGE MARK=1.25

WE HAVE 3 TITANS IN MY COMPANY

TOYOTA SERVICE FOR MY WIFE RAV4 IS SAME.

AND I AM NOT AN ASSHOLE...I THINK

I bought my truck through Internet sales at Naples Nissan, Sales Manager A 10+, Paid for my truck cash, unfortunately had to deal with a retarded finance guy to do paperwork. I had my lift done at Harbor Nissan and it was the best. Recommend to anyone, service manager will do anything for you and will work with you on price. Regular warranty and service work(oil changes)at Gettel and it's just ok. If I had another dealer close by I would probably give them a try. Since writing this, have absolutely stopped using Gettel, they are crap. I drive 50 miles and go to Harbor Nissan. Haven't found anybody better.

[Slewis]

Jenkins Nissan Lakeland,Fl get 6.5

[Optimist]

Palm Nissan=A rating.
Bought mine @ Palm Nissan in West Palm Beach off Military trail. Salesman was great, the finance manager tried to beat my USAA rate “came close but didn’t” & Herb in service makes it worth the 1hr drive. Stopped into Marrone in Miami off US1 & was given the runaround for the brake fix upgrade & that will be my last visit with them. W. Palm placed new rotors on, resurfaced the rears & performed the recall fix @34,800 miles within 2hr’s & I even declined a free loaner for the day.

2 visits in two years not bad.

I bought my 2k4 SE in Atlanta, but lived in Tampa and got it serviced at Crown Nissan in St Pete - good service dept. Probably give it an 8

[troutking]

woooooohooooooo

[Dorsey]

Bought it at Ferman of New Port Richey = 10. Great people and easy to deal with. Tried first and walked out of Autoway Nissan of Brandon = 0. Both had two majestic blue KC LEs, no options other than floor mats, all less than 20 miles on odo. Ferman of New Port Richey was $2700 cheaper.

REED Nissan -- 6.5

Sales man was a nice guy, down to earth and not pushy. I thought it was silly they wouldn't fill the tank on a purchase, but I looked past that and moved on to the finance guy who didnt understand 21,500 OTD. He tried to slap me with a n interest rate 2% over what I told him I was already approved for....so I stood up and started to walk out....then my banks rate was "do-able"

Then he tried to hit me with some other BS fees, by then I had it, I walked...2 days later I bought my titan in Lakeland. Central Florida Euro Cars...great place. I would rate them an 8 (because I had to drive there from Orlando twice).

[Shane06fl]

Reed Nissan in Orlando.

I was a walk in but the internet sales guy was the only one that was available. Sale was typical. I ***** and whinnied until I got what I wanted then they hit me with a 10% interest rate (didn't matter since after the first month I was going to pay it off) so I whinned some more about that and they knocked some more money and we finalized a price then my wife piped up and said ''Honey I will just right them a check'' The sale guy was pissed just a little. They make more money from financing that they do on a cash deal. Anyhow The they took my trade and gave me what I wanted without looking at the vehicle and I was in and out in about 2 hours. I had my survey tank of gas coming so I went down then asked about how come I didn't get a bed extender and they gave me one no questions asked. Then I had some service done on the center arm rest/console and they hosed that up 3 times (more free gas), took two visits to get my brakes replaced. Then I went in at 10,000 miles since my truck was pulling to the right and they said nothing was wrong. Two days later I returned with a printout from a alignment shop saying it was out. They did Allin it but wouldn't install the cam bolts. Another survey for free gas. Alignment is out again, my right front tire is wearing on the outside.

Sales typical BS I rate a 7

Service I rate a 3

Got mine from Jenkins Nissan in Lakeland Fl. Sales guy was brandy new and I was his first sale. He wasn't ashamed to say he didn't know the answer to a question instead of BS'ing me. I was looking for a 2WD Red alert Titan with PW & L , remote entry, decent sound, etc. Hill Nissan in Winter Haven didn't want to look for a truck for me at all. They wanted to move one off the lot and the only thing in my price range was a stripped, silver XE. Yuck! In 2 days, Jenkins found the truck I wanted in the color I wanted with extra options (spray in bedliner, mud guards, etc) and had it brought in from Billy Jo Bob Rays' Nissan. Purchase went smooth except the finance manager was a completely soulless robot. I swear, the temp. dropped 10 degrees when I walked in his office . It also took longer than i had hoped. Seems like we spent all day there.
Walkaround was great, tank was full. Only problem was some melted latex balloons stuck to the bedliner. They offered to immediately clean it but I didn't have the time. I went back a week later at my leisure to get it remedied. Took care of AND they put $62 worth of gas in the tank to fill it .
Overall, sales experience was a 7-8 being brought down by the finance guy and the time investment.
Service, well, I havent needed anything yet but their price to install my rims was a bit over the top.
Cheers, Lee S.
