Had amazing service with Frank Alecio getting a used car. He was straight to the point, nothing hidden from us, and fought for a great price on our behalf. He explained everything in an easy to understand and informative way which helped me as a first time buyer. Friendly, nice, and great to talk with overall, highly recommend!!

I loved the process here at direct motors. Every sales person is great. The place was full when I came in because they have excellent vehicles with low miles. My salesman Frank was top notch gave him a headache and vise versa but ultimately worked together to get what I wanted. I highly recommend this place 100%
