Soon as I walked in after a long drive from Los Angeles I was greeted with amazing energy from everyone. I got the pleasure to work with Zack and Gerardo. Zack was so helpful with choosing reasonable cars as well as advice and tips for building my credit up for future trade ins and car purchases. When Zack had to leave Gerardo was as helpful and stepped in. He made sure he was updated on my process and also was very nice helping me finish the process of the car purchase. Without a doubt I’m pretty sure everyone in there is very help but shoutout to ZACK and GERARDO cause they are the goats.Even though it’s far from me it was worth every minute and I look forward to working with this dealership in the future as well as letting people know where to go when car shopping.

Came in looking for a hauler (truck), sadly the specific one I was looking at needs some work done, but the entire experience was seamless. Zach was incredibly personable, friendly, and helpful. Tried to help me find something else in my price range that is also equipped to my needs. He was super conscientious and attentive, and I did not feel at all pressured to purchase something I didn’t need. Would definitely recommend. Prices are fair and the experience is eons better than your bigger dealers. Can’t speak much to the financing, but they’ll try and beat your bank rates!
