Testimonials

Thank you Zube’s for helping me find the perfect Tacoma for my son.  He is thrilled with his new vehicle. I truly appreciated your attention Pat, especially with the title and registration when it came to delivering the truck in Oregon. Thanks for being the Tacoma connection here on the Central Coast!

Patrick was pleasant to deal with and took care to deliver a truck to me that was free of mechanical problems. I’ve enjoyed my truck for three months and can honestly say that buying from Zube’s has been my best car- or truck-buying experience EVER. Patrick was pleasant to deal with and took care to deliver a truck to me that was free of mechanical problems. I knew exactly what I wanted –right down to the color and the mileage — and was sure I’d have to travel to Los Angeles or Phoenix to find one. I was wrong. Zube’s specializes in Tacomas and had EXACTLY the truck I was looking for. For a great truck, a fair price, and friendly service, do yourself a favor and call Patrick at Zube’s.

The Tacoma runs like a charm. I’m very happy with the purchase. I put an alarm on it and polished the entire truck, looks better than the new Tacoma’s! I will refer everyone I know to you.

The truck is AMAZING! You guys did a great job! Thanks a lot!

I bought my 2003 Toyota Tacoma 4×4 TRD from Zube’s Imports. Truck runs great, handles like a champ and I received great customer service; what more could I have asked for? I added KC daylights, bull bar, and powder coated the rims.  Thanks Zube’s Imports A+!!!

You guys are really cool and if I’m ever referring anyone for cars it will be you! Thanks for everything.

Just wanted to thank you for the great service you provided. The 4Runner is everything and more and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. Thanks again!

Thank you for your wonderful and professional help. The new 4Runner is an incredible vehicle and I’m most pleased with the performance. You were both great to work with and I could not have had a better experience.

Thank you guys for finding me a new pickup truck for work. It has performed flawlessly and I will definitely be doing business again in the future!

Thank you so much for your excellent attentive service while buying the car for Ann Marie. The bow was over the top and so appreciated. Also, thank you for helping my daughter-in-law out. You will be highly recommended. Enjoy a show at The Melodrama.

Hi Pat,

Thank you for following up. My “new” 4Runner is great! I already put on about 600 miles. Thanks for making my first used car buying experience a good one.

Patrick,

You guys are solid!!! The 4Runner looks and runs great, thank you for all your help on our purchase. To all of you who are looking to purchase a good used car these guys will take care of you. You get the small town customer service and top professional expertise all wrapped into one package.

Thanks for being helpful, polite, and honest. I’m very happy with the rig I bought from you. Anyone looking for a used car, give Zube’s a look. A pleasure to do business with

Pat-

I’m writing to let you know how much I appreciate the way you do business. I had been specifically looking for a 2004 Tacoma 4wd with particular extras in the Bay Area for several months and no luck. Good ones were too much money and there was always a story with the rest. I was looking for a solid truck that I hoped to own for another 10 years. I wasn’t looking for perfection, just an honestly presented, straightforward deal on a good used truck.
When I found your website, I thought I might have found the right place. The vehicles on your site are presented with a clear description of the condition and recent work done and the photos are accurate and your prices are very reasonable.

When I saw the truck that I eventually bought on your site I decided that it would be worth the 300 mile round trip from Santa Cruz to check it out.
Your willingness to hold the truck until I could arrange to come down to see it was the first sign of your customer oriented style.

I have been buying only new vehicles for the past 30 years so I was a little nervous buying a used truck. But when I got to your place, you let me take all the time I needed to thoroughly check it out. You answered all my questions and because I was still a little unsure, you offered me an extended 60 day 2000 mile drivetrain warranty. That sealed the deal.
I’m writing to you today because the truck now has over 1800 miles on it since I bought it and I have been to Big Sur, Tahoe and the Napa Valley, on and off road, all with zero issues. I took the truck in today for a thorough exam and it came through with flying colors. Which means that the warranty will expire in the next few days and I never had to even think about using it.

Over the past month I did choose to upgrade the tires, battery and muffler, but I would expect that any used vehicle might need a few things, and I’m pretty picky, so that all seemed fine. I love the truck.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know how gratifying it has been to finally get exactly what I wanted. Thanks again.

The truck is awesome, getting lots of compliments on how clean it is! Cruise worked good on the way home too. Thanks again Pat.

Thanks again for all of your assistance with the purchase of my NEW truck!!! I love it!! I really appreciate you contacting me first before just advertising it and thanks again for the great service you provide, both mechanically and customer-wise. I don’t think I’ll be in the market for another Tacoma anytime soon, but if I know anyone who needs a Toyota truck or 4-Runner, I’m definitely sending them your way!!! You’re the best!! 🙂

Thanks again. I got a great truck at a great price. My wife was also very impressed! My kids wanted to sleep in the back tonight. Haha. I would recommend your business to anyone looking for a Toyota. I was impressed by the work and clean shop as well. It always says QUALITY when the shop is taken care of.

The truck is awesome and I am super happy with it and the whole purchase process in general. It was a sick drive up with no traffic and killer views. Here’s the Yota playing in the snow! Hope you guys are doing well in your new home.

Hi Pat,

I was just writing to let you know the 2000 Tacoma I bought from you is driving great!  My brother took a look at it when he was visiting from Boston and gave his seal of approval, which made me feel even better about my purchase.  I’ve gotten lots of compliments on the truck, and I can’t wait to take it off-road!  Thanks for taking pride in the product that you sell.  After several terrible experiences with car dealerships and sketchy people on Craigslist, I was beginning to feel very frustrated with the car-buying experience, so I’m happy I found you.

Thanks Patrick. You and Greg got  a good thing going. It is not the car but the customer service that is the key to keeping your customer coming back. I feel very confident that my new ride will be everything you promised. Thanks for coming in on a Saturday. I look forward to the many adventures ahead in my 4Runner and the quality service that I will get from Zubes.  Time for a road trip.

Thanks guys for finding me the Tacoma I’ve always wanted. This truck is a dream to drive and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. Here are a couple photos in Oklahoma & Utah of my 6,000 mile roundtrip I just got back from. Had to change the oil from all the miles I put on but that was it! This truck got me everywhere I needed to go with ease. Thanks again.

The truck has been doing amazing, even through all abuse that poor thing takes out at the dunes. I replaced all the shocks with factory replacement Fox shocks, Total Chaos uppers, and just got a customer bumper built by Coastal Fab Werx. That’s just scratching the surface. I have a lot more plans for the future and will keep you updated.  Here’s a few photos from Pismo.

Hey Pat just wanted to show you the truck before and after. I installed a 6” Fabtech suspension lift with 33” Mickey Thompson MTZ P3’s on A/R 16×10 wheels. We love it! Thanks again.

I love the truck. I took it to Crowley and Convict lakes today and my dogs love it too! It handled the 6 hour drive home well too. Thank you!

Nothing was impossible for Pat in helping me to achieve the perfect 2004 Tacoma 4×4 manual extra cab! Excellent customer service and honest workmanship. Highly recommended for a quality experience.

We love our Land Cruiser! I put a alarm with remote start and new deck with Camera and Bluetooth and 5 channel amp. Also did a little fire road action with the family and picnic on the tailgate! Next adventure is High Mountain road from Lopez to Pozo.

Thank you for the great service! It was a nice ride home.

Patrick,

Thanks for holding the car for me.  Car drove great and had no problems on the trip back. Got home around 6:15. Stopped at Subway for lunch and gas. Had to wait ten minutes for people to have their picture taken with the Bird.

Great experience for our family as our daughter bought her first car! Pat was helpful from the first phone call and made the sale easy.
They even washed the car before we were done. Nice!

Hi Pat,

Ken and I keep meaning to write and thank you again for all your help, and to let you know how much fun we’re having with this amazing car!!! Hope you’re well, and we’ll always be grateful to you for helping make this happen!
Best wishes,

Pat,
Thanks so much for all your time, help, and energy in getting this deal done. Your photos, videos, and honesty really helped me feel comfortable that I was truly getting a special car. I’m thankful for the advice on the loan company, and the transport broker. Buying a 60 year old car half way across the country is risky and nerve racking, but you helped me and my wife decide that it was just what we were looking for. The car is fantastic. Everything was just as described and the transport driver was really nice too.

Hello Pat,

Here are some photos from my travels.  The trip ended up a big loop from the Owens Valley, through Nevada, Utah, and the western edge of Colorado.  I got up close tours in the fossil quarries at Dinosaur Natl. Monument and Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park fulfilling those long term wishes.  I really enjoy traveling the backroads of Nevada and Utah.  Driving the Tacoma was a pleasure regardless of road condition. I traveled just over 2400 miles on paved and unpaved roads over mountain ranges and into canyons.  The Tacoma is a sturdy, reliable truck that got me wherever I decided to go.  That is exactly what I was looking for

Hey Patrick,

Just wanted to say thanks for the great 4Runner. I love it and it is super fun to drive. I appreciate your integrity and honesty, it goes a long way.
