Our salesperson feels like a friend, as we have been using him for about 3 years now. And we have now purchased five vehicles through him. The finance team is fantastic! They are quick and thorough in their explanations very helpful if you have any questions. Love my salesman and my finance persons friendliness and enthusiasm, and their thoroughness and the effort that they go to to make sure that we are super happy with our purchases. Recommend them 10 out of 10 times! Five gold stars all the way ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More

If I didn’t have a huge down payment or a co-signer I was dismissed and no longer contacted. I was looking at a 5 year old car and expressed the amount of money I was willing to put down. You would think was dismissed and no longer contacted. I was looking at a 5 year old car and expressed the amount of money I was willing to put down. You would think a dealership will be more focused on a person being able to make the payments on time and not a huge down payment that would knock off only a few bucks from the monthly finance amount. Instead, I sent over my info, and got a call asking if I could put more money down or find someone to co-sign. I told him I am not able to do either and he said “okay I’ll call you back with more information” and I’ve not heard from Will since. It’s sick and sad when you feel that you’re being taken advantage of. When you get hard hits on your credit just to be dismissed for not coughing up at last $3000 down. I am very money conscious and want to ensure I don’t spend alll my money just to drive it off that lot and not have enough space and room for insurance, gas, and the car note. Banks and dealerships need to do better. There are people with careers that have a hard time paying bills that didn’t put anything down. Yet, those of us who can put at least $2000 down and have more than one income we get pushed to the side. Horrible experience and will never frequent this place again. More

It didn’t look like anyone had cleaned it in quite a while. More
