At the end of the This was by far the best car buying experience I have ever had, no haggling, and no trying to get me in a car they wanted to sell. At the end of the day they wanted me to be happy with my vehicle choice, probably at their expense. The online/email/text/delivery method was perfect for me as I don’t have the time to go to the dealer and spend hours going through the process. I would recommend Rio Vista to anyone looking for a Chevy! Thank you! More

My salesman Samuel Ibarra went above and beyond in his commitment as a rep for Rio Vista Chevrolet. He made my experience in looking for and purchasing a new to me vehicle effortless and stress free without being pushy! Samuel was very knowledgeable about the vehicle I was interested in and if he didn't know the answer to my many questions, he researched and found out. He communicated all my concerns to the finance guy and also to the service department. My overall experience exceeded my expectations More

The best experience I have ever had buying a new car! I can't say enough about Jimmy and his team in sales. He went well above and beyond to find the correct Tahoe that would fit my families needs. Afte I can't say enough about Jimmy and his team in sales. He went well above and beyond to find the correct Tahoe that would fit my families needs. After multiple emails, text messages, phone calls and inquires Jimmy was able to locate the exact vehicle we were looking for. This wasn't an easy task since we wanted a 2019 and the stock on hand was very limited. Jimmy did an excellent job and most definitely earned my future business and I will make sure i recommend Rio Vista Chevrolet to anyone I know who is in the market for a new car. I have purchased many new cars throughout my life and no one has done for me what Jimmy has. Excellent service! More
