Purchase of a new Traverse Everything was simple and fast. I walked into the dealership and was able to look at and test drive the vehicle I was interested in within minutes. Th Everything was simple and fast. I walked into the dealership and was able to look at and test drive the vehicle I was interested in within minutes. The staff was very knowledgeable about the vehicle and its technology. Once the credit application was completed, I was able to leave. John and Samuel contacted me when they were ready for me to return to sign paperwork, which was very convenient with a new baby. I would definitely recommend this dealership based on my excellent experience. More

Samuel Ibarra This is the best dealership we’ve ever been to. The experience we had today will keep us going back for years to come. When we pulled into the deale This is the best dealership we’ve ever been to. The experience we had today will keep us going back for years to come. When we pulled into the dealership looking for a truck we were greeted by Samuel. When I say greeted I don’t mean a pushy sales man. He treated like us like family, as if he had know us forever. As for the rest of the staff we incountered they were also just warm and welcoming. Needless to say Samuel helped us with everything even down to delivering the vehicle to our home. We will recommend Rio Vista Chevrolet to everyone we know looking for a vehicle. Thank you Rio Vista Chevrolet for your amazing service and hospitality. More
