Thank you so much for your honest feedback—we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! We’re glad to hear that you loved your new car and that the buying process was easy and quick, especially on a Saturday. That means a lot to our team. That said, you’re absolutely right to expect your vehicle to be properly cleaned and fueled before delivery. We apologize that we missed the mark there. While weekends can present some staffing challenges, that’s not the experience we want for our customers, and we’ll be addressing this internally to make sure we do better moving forward. We appreciate your understanding and are grateful for the opportunity to earn your business. Enjoy your new ride, and we look forward to taking even better care of you next time! 🚗
