I would highly recommend this dealership if you are looking for friendly and personable service. They greeted me before I even walked in the door. Emily was very professional and was able to direct me looking for friendly and personable service. They greeted me before I even walked in the door. Emily was very professional and was able to direct me to vehicles that met all of my requirements. She was very easy to talk to, and I didn't feel like I was being pressured into buying something I didn't want. They have a wide range of cars and trucks to choose from with reasonable price ranges. She took a little of the stress off by walking me through payments plans, bank loans, etc. I went home happy with a truck I loved and knew that if I had any questions or concerns, I could call Emily and she would be happy to help. If you are looking to buy a used vehicle, I would definitely go check this place out. More
I made the mistake in treating this like any other car lot. Having purchased many vehicles in the past and experienced on many occasions the, "Sure we can get that done!" but never came through. This was lot. Having purchased many vehicles in the past and experienced on many occasions the, "Sure we can get that done!" but never came through. This was not that kind of dealership at all. Not only did Jon help me pick out an automobile that suited my needs but one that we could eventually work out the finances as well. There were no hidden cost. Jon told me up front how much the car was. I knew that if I was to purchase something, I would need to be able to cover taxes, tag and probably GAP Insurance out of pocket, this was my down payment. Jon found large bank financing with a little higher rate than some might want to pay but since I knew that my credit was not perfect, this was good for me and actually expected something higher which would have put me out of budget for the purchase. My new (new to me) car is just like new. Jon made a good recommendation with it. It is a little light on gadgets but with extremely low mileage and like new condition, to me just means less to worry about going wrong down the road. The car also fit me better than others I was looking at, in that the seats sit higher and back further. This may not make sense to most people but if you have hip disorders, squatting low to get in and out of a vehicle can be quite the challenge. I know, I touched on finances already but kind of funny story, maybe you'll appreciate it. Jon had checked a few financiers. He was checking the bank that accommodated the loan and he touched base with me at his desk to let me know what was going on and that it may be some time before he actually received an answer from this one. I read this as, "We're done for the day!" I mulled around the lot for a few minutes and went home, figuring, as anyone might, we're done and I'll never hear from this guy again. By the time I got home, 15 minutes away, I had 2 voice mail and an email asking me where I went? I called Jon and explained that I thought we were done. Needless to say, I was back there and driving away in my car with in a short order. More
I went to this dealership looking to buy a used vehicle to lease. At first all the employees were super friendly, a little over friendly, if you know what I mean. After that whenever I had issues they to to lease. At first all the employees were super friendly, a little over friendly, if you know what I mean. After that whenever I had issues they told me I needed to talk to the "bank" since they financed the vehicle for me and guess what the "bank" said I needed to talk to the dealership who sold me the vehicle. I continued to get a run around so I finally told them to take their car back and I since I tell everyone and anyone I come in contact with never to buy a vehicle there. They seem nice, caring, honest people, but looks can be deceiving. Steve Banks is a xxxxxx. More
My husband and I needed a second car really bad and due to our credit wasn't have any luck with the larger dealerships. Steve at Thrifty was very healpful from the minute we walked in the door. We explain to our credit wasn't have any luck with the larger dealerships. Steve at Thrifty was very healpful from the minute we walked in the door. We explained our financial situation and he didn't try to "sell" us something he knew would be out of our reach. He took the time to find out what our needs were and worked with his finance department to help get us a nice vehicle and stay within our budget. Also, gives us peace of mind knowing the vehicle we bought is a "Certified Used Vehicle" and has a 2 year warranty that if needed can be used nationwide at and certified mechanic. We would reccommend Thrifty Car Sales to other. More
I am pleased that i was able to get financed on a vehicle, when other dealers was trying to take advantage of me. However, i was told that my truck would be filled up with gas. My understanding was t vehicle, when other dealers was trying to take advantage of me. However, i was told that my truck would be filled up with gas. My understanding was that my truck would have a full tank of gas. When i asked about this John told me that they have $20 vouchers that they use to put gas in tank. My suggestion is that they may want to be more specific as to what they are providing so that there is no misunderstanding. It is understood that this dealership is in the business of making money. My power steering fluid is pitch black. While the vehicle is in running order, several system fluids have been found needing IMMEDIATE attention before negatively affecting pertinent components of the vehicle relative to its continued functionality. John W told me there was no CarFax for my vehicle becase it is older than 2000. Called dealership and spoke w/Dan who said he was new Mgr. Dan promised to give me a full tank of gas and a copy of CarFax report on 1/25/2011 @ 9am. More

I chose Thrifty Car Sales because of the name. My past dealings with Thrifty Rental was great however, now I realize there are no connections. I chose to deal with they anyway. My dealer was Steve Banks dealings with Thrifty Rental was great however, now I realize there are no connections. I chose to deal with they anyway. My dealer was Steve Banks who promissed me (after signing on the dotted line) any and all problems would be corrected. After calling Steve a couple weeks later in came a whole new story, he became hard to catch up with. To make a long story short I spoke to the owner he pretty much said I was s.o.l. I will never refer this company to any friend of mine. More

I was told by a friend that the dealership had a Shelby Mustang. I went by and drove the car with my Salesman Travis. I went to lunch came back and we started trying to get financing started. Unfortunat Mustang. I went by and drove the car with my Salesman Travis. I went to lunch came back and we started trying to get financing started. Unfortunately it was too late on Saturday to get financing. On Monday Travis called to let me know the financing had been approved. I went over to sign my papers and pickup the car. The process was very easy. Travis was wonderful. I would refer anyone to get in touch with Travis if they are intersted in buying a car. More
