General manager Andrew sent me an email saying he can work a deal not normally available but he could do it for me. Total lie. Went there and he could only do the bare discount that Costco already got me work a deal not normally available but he could do it for me. Total lie.

Our salesperson, John Zale, was the most knowledgeable & informative rep I've encountered in many years and went out of his way to explain our options, compare the model we were contemplating to other brand options and answer every question we had in a thoughtful and thorough manner. It was, believe it or not, an actually enjoyable experience. Kudos to Kennedy for their unhurried, unpressurized approach to doing business; as a customer, it felt as if their goal was to make sure our experience was a positive one - and it was. More

The sales team doesn't pressure you or try to trick you into paying for extras that you don't want (like some other local dealerships). Andy, the sales manager, works so hard to give you the best deal the first time. He is transparent about costs, interest rates, cash back, payments, etc. and doesn't try to hide anything. You know exactly how much you are paying and exactly what you are paying for. Every purchase I have made at Kennedy has been a personal experience based on my individual circumstances and needs at the time. At Kennedy, I have always been treated like a person, not a number - even when returning for service. I do also want to give a shout out to John Zale for being so patient with us when we made our purchase (we had three kids in tow). Thanks so much for getting us into a car that we love and for answering all of our questions. Thanks, Kennedy, for another overwhelmingly positive experience. A+++++ More

used truck purchase I purchased a used truck from here on Sept 1. After all the necessary paperwork was done and my plates were transferred I was ready to go. I then aske I purchased a used truck from here on Sept 1. After all the necessary paperwork was done and my plates were transferred I was ready to go. I then asked for the spare key since there was still only one given to me and they informed me there was no spare. This was never mentioned during the negotiation process. A spare key ended up costing me $215 so I reached out to the dealership to see if they could cover this cost. They responded and asked me to get a copy of the bill for them. After our discussion over the weekend Andrew reached out to me today and informed me they would indeed pay for it. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking to buy a car. More
