We recently purchased a hybrid vehicle from Jim Ellis Kia and worked with Eddie Thornton—he was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. Big thanks to him! T and worked with Eddie Thornton—he was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. Big thanks to him! That said, the dealership’s processing and financing workflow was slower than expected. We arrived around 5pm already pre-approved and ready to go (no haggling), but didn’t leave until 9pm. That’s a long time for a straightforward purchase. One standout positive: Jim Ellis Kia seems to be the only dealership within 50 miles consistently stocking electric and hybrid vehicles, which is a huge plus if you’re in the market for one. Overall, great inventory and helpful salespeople—just be prepared for a longer wait during paperwork More

Eddie is the absolute best! He turned around what could have been the worst dealership experience in my life. Eddie bent over backwards to try and correct what the GM did to me He turned around what could have been the worst dealership experience in my life. Eddie bent over backwards to try and correct what the GM did to me and my family. The only way I would go back to Jim Ellis is if I knew I would have Eddie in my corner. More
