Hello There My Name is Matt. I have been working at Heritage for over 2 years now and truly love what I do. I have lived in New England all my life. I moved to Vermont in 2001 to open a restaurant for the Company I worked with. Vermont became the place where I started my family. I have 2 children. My Daughter Lily who is 8 and my Son Colin who is 6. I enjoy watching all sports. I play golf and hang out with the Family on my free time. I really enjoy meeting and getting to know new people everyday. I like to make the experience of buying a vehicle as fun and relaxed as possible. It really means a lot to me when customers, their friends, and their families come back and see me when they have vehicle needs.

It was frustrating that this dealership (like other Toyota dealers) was unable to maintain an inventory of Grand Highlanders. We initially waited from Dec. 2023 to June 2024 for a 2024 Grand Highlander More

Debbie, Thank you for your feedback, Vehicle inventory situations have been chaotic across the automobile industry over the last five years, causing pain and frustration to customers and dealers alike. While we try very hard to negotiate the gap between the situation on the ground and our customers' desires, it is quite difficult to succeed 100% of the time. We are very sorry to hear that finding the vehicle you were looking for took longer than expected, however, we do appreciate your patience throughout process. Again, we appreciate your feedback, as we will continue to work to minimize the impact of inventory struggles on our customers. Safe travels and we hope you enjoy your new Grand Highlander
