I purchased my 2021 Ram from Jay at Dave Smith and the customer service exceeded my expectations. Salesman Jay and Manager Cameron Mills went above and beyond to ensure that the transaction went smoothly. customer service exceeded my expectations. Salesman Jay and Manager Cameron Mills went above and beyond to ensure that the transaction went smoothly. They displayed professionalism and exceptional customer service. Additionally, they didn't try to sell me on something I didn't want, but instead helped me find exactly what I wanted. I have purchased from many dealerships, but this was the best vehicle purchase experience I have ever had. More

What a joke of a “so called business” this is, I bought a brand new 2020 ram, they delivered it, I did all the paperwork they needed. 2 weeks later they come at me and say I didn’t pay for the bedliner. So a brand new 2020 ram, they delivered it, I did all the paperwork they needed. 2 weeks later they come at me and say I didn’t pay for the bedliner. Sorry but I didn’t order that, it came that way. Their finance guy (Carl alley) calls me and says I’m a thief and he’s gonna report this to collections if I don’t pay for the bedliner. Lol sorry bro, show me the paperwork where I signed and asked to have bedliner installed. More

My wife and I have been shopping around for a car and saw the pre-owned specials on Dave Smith's website. Being local we drove over and ended up getting the perfect fit for us. Our salesman Everett did alot the pre-owned specials on Dave Smith's website. Being local we drove over and ended up getting the perfect fit for us. Our salesman Everett did alot to make this the best car buying experience possible; we answered our questions and made sure we were satisfied with the vehicle. We would recommend Everett and Dave Smith to anyone shopping for a new vehicle, wanting to talk to a professional staff. More

We needed a truck ASAP. Told Dave Smith salesperson, Elmer we had one on order with our local dealership but we wouldn’t have delivery for 10 weeks. Since we didn’t have a signed contract we had the op Elmer we had one on order with our local dealership but we wouldn’t have delivery for 10 weeks. Since we didn’t have a signed contract we had the option to shop around. Elmer promised us a truck in a couple of weeks, this was February 18, 2021. We applied for a loan and were approved on February 22nd. Then things got delayed. By April 1st we’d had enough and told Elmer we wanted to cancel. He had his sales manager, Cameron contact us. Cameron told us we couldn’t back out because the truck was with the shipper and on its way to us in California. I called the shipper and he didn’t have our truck in his possession yet, it was sitting in the dealership. The truck did finally arrive on April 2nd but we couldn’t register it as the bank hadn’t funded per Elmer. I contacted the bank and was informed we don’t have a loan because Dave Smith failed to return paperwork to them so the application expired on March 30th. I am in possession of a brand new truck that I didn’t purchase. The dealership won’t return my calls. Today is April 21st and we still have this 2021 Ram on our property that we never paid for. I find the employees at Dave Smith to be very rude and dishonest. I would love to figure out how to get out of this mess and get Dave Smith Motors and this truck out of my life! ! More

I looked at going to Dave smith for my new dodge. The sales staff were friendly until it’s their day off and they forget who you are. They pressured me into putting a 500.00 deposit on a truck and told m sales staff were friendly until it’s their day off and they forget who you are. They pressured me into putting a 500.00 deposit on a truck and told me they could change the truck when I got there. After three salespeople and three weeks I decided they didn’t have what I was really looking for. I wanted to be sure driving two trade in vehicles over a thousand miles and spending almost 70,000.00 on a new truck. When I asked them if they would return my deposit I haven’t heard back that was over two weeks ago. I have since heard back and was told my deposit would be returned. More

OK, have purchased three trucks from Dave Smith Motors over the years. A 3/4 ton diesel RAM, a Chevy 3/4 ton gas Silverado, and now a turbo diesel GMC Sierra 1/2 ton SLT. I live in Ore-gone and frankly over the years. A 3/4 ton diesel RAM, a Chevy 3/4 ton gas Silverado, and now a turbo diesel GMC Sierra 1/2 ton SLT. I live in Ore-gone and frankly wish I was closer to Kellogg for several reasons, not the least of which is the fact that you have to go a bit out of your way to get to Smith motors. I have purchased a number of trucks over the years having lived in the Portland area from other dealers but after doing so found the price and vehicle options were better at Smith even after buying a plane ticket and driving 500 miles home. They don't wear you out and BS you with what they might do on the deal. The cards are on the table from the start and although I liked some of the other dealers that are closer, no one else beat the deal on the truck i wanted. I made the mistake of driving to Carr Chevrolet in Portland to get a full on bait and switch tactic and walked out after being told the finance option was not really on the truck we had been talking about over 6 emails... (Never to return to Carr Chevy again for me!) Anyway, do your homework and shop around but don't leave Smith Motors out because of the distance, i have found they make it worth my while. Again i purchased a GMC truck not a Chrysler product but that option seems to not be available under the vehicle Make below so i have checked what will allow me to exit the form.. More

Tiny Winegar was my sale consultant and I must say I will go to him again to buy a vehicle. I stated to Tiny what I'm looking for in a truck and found me the truck I was looking for. He constantly kept me up go to him again to buy a vehicle. I stated to Tiny what I'm looking for in a truck and found me the truck I was looking for. He constantly kept me updated through the process. I also gave Tiny my travel schedule, a shuttle picked me up at the hotel in Spokane, WA. once inside the dealership Tiny was there and had all the paperwork ready to go, he also helped with my uconnect system on my phone. Through the process it was relaxing and made me fill very welcome. It was the best experience I have ever had in buying a vehicle. One thing I want to say about Tiny he was always up front with me, his honestly and integrity was exceptional through the process. If you plan on buying a vehicle for the first time through Dave Smith, I HIGHLY recommend getting in touch with Tiny, This particular 2021 Ram 2500 heavy duty he sold me is the truck that will suit my needs. Bravo Zulu to Dave Smith and especially to Tiny Thank-you and as well to other staff members that were involve in the process. Regards Rick Spencer More
