Chris Mikell made my purchase experience better than I could have ever imagined it would be. As a former Finance Manger at a Nissan store I know first hand just how difficult and terrible the experience could have ever imagined it would be. As a former Finance Manger at a Nissan store I know first hand just how difficult and terrible the experience can be when purchasing a vehicle. With absoulutely no games and no hassle Chris showed me the vehicle I was interested in, valued my trade, and gave me the numbers very straight forward. I took a day to think about it and he allowed me to do that without any hassle. I came back in to finalize the transaction and everything was on paper exactly as we had agreed upon. I singed paperwork and left with my new used vehicle in less than 30 minutes. Chris and the team at Dallas Lease Returns are a model for how Car Dealerships should do business. I would highly recommed anyone to purchase a vehicle from them. Thank you Chris for making my experience the best it could be. - David D. More

Dallas Lease Returns has great prices and great customer service. Shawn and Chris worked very hard to find a suburban for us in a very short period of time.
