Dallas Lease Returns
Dallas, TX
9,364 Reviews
Over 22 years ago Dallas Lease Returns decided to change the way car buying is done. They lowered overhead and teamed up with affiliated leasing companies to cut out the "Dealer Only" auto auctions by offering one-owner, off-lease vehicles direct to the public for 45 days. No longer would you have to deal with high prices, pushy salesmen, and confusing finance managers- prices would be fair and the only vehicles offered would be to the highest standard.
Today, DLR has completed over 10,000 transactions becoming the DealerRater National Dealer of the year for 2023 and the DealerRater Texas Dealer of the year for 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, & 23. DLR and its partners have been featured in many local and National publications including Auto Dealer Monthly, Vehicle Leasing Today, Dallas Morning News, and Fort Worth Business Press to name a few, and even appear in eBay marketing ad campaigns.
Kris Gaerlan, DLR- "True we have many awards but awards are not necessarily rewarding. I am proud of what we have achieved but more importantly, it’s why. We do good business and treat our customers fair. The true reward is seeing a customer for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th time or getting a call from a customer’s friends and family. That’s when we know we have done the job right."

Dallas Lease Returns had the best deal in town, and trust me, I searched everywhere. They also offered a better interest rate than my credit union. Jordan Campsey was extremely courteous and efficient. He me, I searched everywhere. They also offered a better interest rate than my credit union.

Dallas Lease Returns was recommended to us by a friend so we searched their pre-owned inventory online and contacted Chris for help finding us the vehicle to fit our needs. Chris was super friendly and alway we searched their pre-owned inventory online and contacted Chris for help finding us the vehicle to fit our needs. Chris was super friendly and always responded quickly to our questions. He was able to find us the exact make and model we were looking for - within our budget -- and even in the right color! After quickly running it through detail TWICE, we were able to close the deal with our trade-ins and walk away extremely satisfied. Chris Mikell gives his clients superb service, operates great via email and text, and even came through on his promise to throw in a pine tree air freshener! Much appreciated. More

Chris gave me a very good deal and a couple of days later stopped by the dealership to get a look at it first hand and I took it for a test drive. Chris gave me a very good deal and a couple of days later I picked up the car. I have now had the car for 5 years and still enjoy driving it. More
