Exceptional Customer Service and Integrity Rio Vista Chevrolet's Service Department (Dave specifically), has disproven my skeptical opinion of car dealerships and the degree to which they are w Rio Vista Chevrolet's Service Department (Dave specifically), has disproven my skeptical opinion of car dealerships and the degree to which they are willing to stand behind the products they sell. The levels of integrity and customer service I experienced during my very recent visits to them have earned them a lifetime advocate for both sales and customer service, and I attribute that directly to my experience with service Manager, Dave Bouslaugh.

Denali Dream Experience I found a Yukon on line 3 hours away from home, called Samuel, and he made the deal worth the drive. The team was informative, educated on the cars, I found a Yukon on line 3 hours away from home, called Samuel, and he made the deal worth the drive. The team was informative, educated on the cars, and no pressure. I will definitely recommend this dealership to others. This is car trading and buying at its best. They were willing to work with me on the phone and via text, so I knew the trip was worth it before leaving home. There is so much to do in the area, so my family made a day of it: Solvang, ostriches, missions, beautiful country....They made the whole process quick, comfortable, and fun. More

When I walked into Rio Vista Chevrolet, I expected them to say the same thing. Dick Sell didn't say that. He said it's going to be tough but let me try. Sure enough, he found my truck! And he did it in less than a week. To top it off, I got the color I wanted! They are serious about meeting their customers needs. The entire process was easy and quick. They even helped me load my Harley in the back. More

Courtesy and Timeliness I was in need of a good price on a car, a fair price on my trade in and in a quick turn around. My salesman went right to bat, and he and the manager I was in need of a good price on a car, a fair price on my trade in and in a quick turn around. My salesman went right to bat, and he and the manager had worked it out in one round of discussion. I am very happy with the service and deal. It is great to know that kind of thing is still possible in the auto business. These guys will work with you and for you. More
