Ryan was good and respected my wishes and our agreements, Jimmy was the opposite. I found that Jimmy was only concerned about making a sale, and did not respect my wishes to not contact me over the weekend b Jimmy was the opposite. I found that Jimmy was only concerned about making a sale, and did not respect my wishes to not contact me over the weekend because I was at my daughter’s sporting event. The agreement was to follow up on Monday morning when I left the dealership on Friday. Jimmy called me several times over the weekend. The other reason Jimmy almost ruined the sale was that after I explicitly informed him and Ryan that I was financing the vehicle with my own bank and not through the dealership he again called me multiple times until I returned his call. Once I returned his call, he pushed his agenda of the dealership could do the financing even though I continually told him I was using my own bank. He was relentless and extremely frustrating. To be 100% honest if I could have found the vehicle anywhere else in New England I would have gone there because of Jimmy. I am not sure why you keep him on your staff. If I was a manager at your dealership I would fire him and replace him with someone who listens the customer. More
