My experience with Estherville GMC of Coleman Automotive was flat-out disappointing. Be careful if you deal with them. They advertise low prices, but those prices don’t include a pile of hidden fees. On top of that, if you don’t trade a vehicle with them or finance through them, they tack on even more charges. Not exactly transparent. They also claim they “love all trades” and pay top dollar. Not true in my case. They already knew what I had, I showed it exactly as advertised, and still they dragged me through VINs, photos, and back-and-forth just to come back with excuses about the “slow market” and offer me way under value. Felt like a tactic just to wear me down. My sales rep was Chris White, and the whole approach was the classic good cop/bad cop routine with the sales manager. At one point I even got a text saying my offer was accepted, then ten minutes later they changed their mind and said it was revoked because another dealer wanted the truck at MSRP. That doesn’t add up—dealers buy at invoice, not MSRP. Just felt dishonest. For a GMC dealer—which is supposed to represent a more premium GM brand—I expected some class. Instead, it was the same old “wham-bam” auction-style sales tactics. I’d avoid this dealership at all costs. They’re not transparent and they’re not trustworthy.
