Was the best car buying experience I have ever had. Gerry and Mel were forthcoming in answering questions and I am confident I received a fair price for my purchase and my trade-in. Highly recommend. More

This has been one of the best experiences with purchasing a vehicle I have ever had. Mel was open and honest and just a pleasure to chat with. They had fair pricing, financing was very easy, and honored their dealer warranty when I had a non-engine mechanical issue. I would highly recommend this Dealership!!
