2nd Purchase from Gabis This is our second purchase from Gabus and from Steve Sanders. Great experience everytime. No haggling on prices because the first deal they offered u This is our second purchase from Gabus and from Steve Sanders. Great experience everytime. No haggling on prices because the first deal they offered us each time was reasonable and comparable to our research on prices. First car was an Edge for the family and second car was a used first car for our 16 year old. My husband always calls Steve first when looking for a new vehicle. Will continue to purchase from Gabus!

Great experience! We only stopped in for an oil change and ended up two days later with a new car! Took time to 'browse' and was soon working with a great salesman. (Re We only stopped in for an oil change and ended up two days later with a new car! Took time to 'browse' and was soon working with a great salesman. (Recommended by our usual salesman, who now works a different area). As usual, we were treated like family by an awesome staff. Just can't say enough about how they work with you to get the best deal while keeping in mind our likes and concerns. Love the 'new' refinished faculty and the work that's being done to make your shopping/buying experience a good one. Charles would be proud! More
