Pine Belt Subaru...A Different Way to Subaru!
Treatment:
Webster's Dictionary defines the word "Treatment" as:
1a: the act or manner or an instance of treating someone or something :handling, usage
the star requires careful treatment
b: the techniques or actions customarily applied in a specified situation
2a: a substance or technique used in treating
Here at Pine Belt, we agree with this definition. When our Founder Leon Sickel first opened Pine Belt in 1937, he had one very clear vision: "I always want to treat people the way I would want to be treated, with respect and honesty while never forgetting to give everyone the best price possible that is always lower than our competition." Eighty years later, Pine Belt in Lakewood remains welded to the vision of our Founder, and proudly remains committed to making sure everyone who buys from Pine Belt receives our very best in Treatment.

Giant waste of time I had a lengthy email correspondence with Erin in the internet Department regarding a 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek. I let her know it was a 2 hour drive t I had a lengthy email correspondence with Erin in the internet Department regarding a 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek. I let her know it was a 2 hour drive to get to her dealership and I was not going to come unless the deal was worth it. I was informed that the posted price was $25,356. The manager would be able to discuss further discounts. That additional discount ended up being ZERO. Their price was $600 more than comparable dealers. Next came the trade in. I specifically asked for the Galves values knowing they would offer wholesale trade in value. She refused to send it (That should have been a clue). They referred me to the KBB website which showed a $9,500 trade in value. The car needed a $250 windshield so I informed her I would be looking for a $9,000 trade in value. She said that they were in that range. She was offered $8,350 which was less than the listed value for a car in ROUGH condition. The car is in far from rough condition. Then came the financing. They offered a rate 0.5% ABOVE what other dealers were offering. The finance manager was unwilling to even try to get a better rate and provided a reply that "You can get your own financing". Why go to a dealership then? All in all their net price would have ended up being $1500 MORE than comparable dealers. Not to mention 6 hours of wasted time. More

Got ripped off and didn't realize it I was told I could only get the financing I needed if I took the extended warranty and gap coverage. And they also raised the price on the car 2000 do I was told I could only get the financing I needed if I took the extended warranty and gap coverage. And they also raised the price on the car 2000 dollars over the sticker and I didn't realize it until 3 months down the road. Generally they are just not trustworthy. More

I went to Pinebelt to look at some certified cars following an internet search; I was treated in an above average manner that exceeded my expectations. I started with Carol through the internet she w following an internet search; I was treated in an above average manner that exceeded my expectations. I started with Carol through the internet she was knowledgable and answered all of my questions. When I was unable to connect with her on my way to Pinebelt I received a call from Erick, the sales manager who went above and beyond with having my needs met. The sales consultant, Jim was equally as wonderful in making my visit a comfortable one. My freind and I were treated to lunch and made to feel very comfortable. Last but not least Scott helped to finalise the transaction in a timely manner and provided a wealth of knowledge pertaing to extended insurance for the vehicle that I purchased. Overall a wonderfull experience. More
