Buyer beware this dealership is very focused on making money not on building relationships with customers. My experience with this company was far from desirable they had a 2007 picker listed for sale I h money not on building relationships with customers. My experience with this company was far from desirable they had a 2007 picker listed for sale I had my nephew stop in and have a look at it for me ,he found the truck could potentially work for our up coming project , he told the sales girl he was dealing with, that it looked good and asked if it would be ok if i stopped by next day to have a look and potentially buy ,from that point on the Sales manager ,John took over the deal and told Jonathan my nephew, that another couple was coming back that night to buy , so if he wanted to stop that deal to put a non refundable deposit of $500.00 down at that would stop that deal. We put the deposit down, and I went there by 1:00pm the next day to inspect the truck on arriving I was greeted by Sales Woman Hannah which I would like to say she was very polite and knowledgeable and forthcoming, we started the truck and went for a test drive in the inspection process I found some potential problems mainly on the engine after finding issues, I asked Hannah if I could take the truck to a third party to have inspected at my cost she asked the owner and he said no, I asked to speak to him she took me to him and in our discussion he told me he does not allow customers to there vehicles off site for third party inspection, in our conversation I explained that the way the engine started there could be engine problems and I needed specific test done he stated only speedy Auto service could do the inspection at his cost. I said yes and I would like to speak to the mechanic directly. I stated if the picker truck checks out i will buy it. The next day Hannah called me said the truck was booked in for the following Monday and asked if that was a problem i said no my project does not stat till May 9. That afternoon I received a call from the Sales manager John Russell and he informed that there will be no inspection performed and that if i wanted the truck i could buy as is were is or he would give my money back. I told I didn't want my money back I wanted the few potential issues inspected and if check I would buy and that I was willing to have my mechanic come inspect on there site the next day. He phoned me back and said talked to the owner and he said no to inspection. In all my years off buying equipment I have never came across dealership that was apposed to a third party inspection, so after that phone call I was left with the feeling there is a conflict of interest between Cars Near Cost and Speedy Auto Service. When look on Cars Near Cost webpage Speedy Auto Service is on there as well I do not believe this dealership is dealing in good faith and are not selling the truth .I thought I would share my experience to hopefully save somebody the hardship and miss fortune of buying a unreliable vehicle.

Bought a car from this dealership paid in full. I drove off the lot stayed at a motel car was not gassed up as they said nor did it start in the morning. So I had to get it boosted, next morning sa I drove off the lot stayed at a motel car was not gassed up as they said nor did it start in the morning. So I had to get it boosted, next morning same thing. Reached out to dealer to see what they would do absolutely nothing. Then 1 week later was going to trade this car in at a different dealership and they wouldn't take it cause of 2 leins on the vehicle then my blood pressure rose and I had a headache for a whole week. I tried to get dealership to take off the leins as I had just driven 9 hrs for trade in but they refused to answer my calls or emails, so I drove to Cars Near Cost again but they weren't gonna do anything for me accept that they figured the leins were removed, which they weren't this is THE WORST DEALERSHIP EVER , JUST BELIEVE ME!

I bought my car from The Cars Near Cost Company about 7 months ago. I dealt with Colin and he was awesome. I felt very comfortable upon entering the dealership ( no pressure ). Colin made my car shopping months ago. I dealt with Colin and he was awesome. I felt very comfortable upon entering the dealership ( no pressure ). Colin made my car shopping experience very easy.

I had a good experience with this company, apart from some hiccups with the car a day after getting it (which would have been nice to have more transparency on), they were professional and nice people.
