As a 35-year-old purchasing my first car from a dealership, I was filled with apprehension. The thought of spending hours with a stereotypical car salesman—polished, cologne-drenched, and pushy—was dealership, I was filled with apprehension. The thought of spending hours with a stereotypical car salesman—polished, cologne-drenched, and pushy—was downright intimidating. I was nervous about feeling pressured into something I didn’t want. Then I met Ken Zeller at McGrath Subaru, and everything changed. Ken was a breath of fresh air. Patient, kind, and genuinely approachable, he guided me through the entire car-buying process with clarity and care. His knowledge and calm demeanor instantly put me at ease. Not once did he make me feel pressured or uninformed. Instead, he took the time to explain everything thoroughly—even leasing, which I had always found a bit overwhelming. He broke it down with the warmth and wisdom of a trusted mentor, and I left feeling empowered in my decision. Ken's approach was refreshingly focused on my needs. “Don’t worry about the price right now,” he said. “Just drive the cars and figure out what you actually want.” That advice stuck with me. After test-driving a few options, I left with the perfect car for me—no stress, no regrets. Ken went above and beyond to make the experience comfortable and even enjoyable. From sharing warm muffins to chatting about music and the dogs he was dog-sitting, his friendly demeanor turned what could have been a stressful process into a delight. As a lesbian couple, my partner and I deeply appreciated how respectful and welcoming Ken was—he didn’t just make us feel comfortable; he shared a laugh at my joke about getting a "lesbian discount," cause you know, it's a Subaru dealership. Ken Zeller made my first dealership experience exceptional. I’m thrilled with my new car, and I’ll happily recommend him to anyone looking for a seamless, stress-free car-buying journey. Thank you, Ken—you’ve earned a customer for life! More

They made right on a car I had completed the purchase on after which I found a paint chip on the door when I was moving things over from my trade-in. They cancelled the sale and provided me with another car with a slight upgraded package, because they didn’t have another with the same options as I bought. They made it right and I got an excellent price. Both Lous that I worked with were helpful and patient. More

Professional care that feels like hometown care. This is my first trip to McGrath. From the moment I entered the door everyone was responsive and friendly. I thought I knew what I was looking for an This is my first trip to McGrath. From the moment I entered the door everyone was responsive and friendly. I thought I knew what I was looking for and that nothing could dissuade me. My sales agent, Omar, listens to what I was saying, and found me an even better offer than what I drove there for. I couldn’t be happier with the process of finding a car, working with their finance team, and even getting help from their vehicle technical support person, Brendan. I’m very tech savvy, but taking the extra time to get oriented to my vehicle helps me love it even more. I stopped getting Subarus because I wasn’t thrilled with my hometown dealership. But I have found my hometown dealership just a few towns over at McGrath Subaru. More
