I had a very positive experience with Gates GMC Nissan. As soon as I arrived the car I was interested in was ready and up front for me to look at.

Paul took me on a test drive and I determined that I liked the car. Another sales associate gave me a bottled water which hit the spot because of my long trip to Gates. I was taken on an extensive tour of your dealorship and your vision of the dealorship in the future was brought to light. Paul was straight forward with no gimmicks and Ryan worked with me to get me the deal I was looking for. Nick did a nice job with the financing, providing me with a stress free and friendly experience. I would recommend Gates to anyone and will be a returning customer when the time comes. Thank You, Gates GMC Nissan! Sincerely, Carl Swenson More

Gates gets it. That is there slogan, and they seem to deliver on it. I can't speak for others but I had a great experience at Gates Nissan. I found a car online that looked too good to be true for the pr deliver on it. I can't speak for others but I had a great experience at Gates Nissan. I found a car online that looked too good to be true for the price. Thankfully, it was true, and unbelievable. My situation complicated for I live in Texas. This car was of course in Connecticut where the dealership was. I inquired and immediately I got a very friendly response. As I told the dealership the buying process would be complicated, they went above and beyond to facilitate a sale for me even over a thousand miles away. I told them I would not buy a used car without looking at it. The plan for me was to risk buying a plane ticket to fly up there and look at the 370z I planned on buying. When I told the dealership this, and how serious I was. The dealer offered to reimburse my plane ticket upon purchase. Also if I needed to be picked up from the airport, they would send someone. I was stunned. As a generally careful person, I still thought it was too good to be true, but I took the risk anyway and went to Connecticut to view the car. I was very glad I made that decision. I thankfully had family in the are to pick me up, but when I got to the dealership they were very welcoming, and set the car aside for me. Brian Phillip was a very very nice and friendly car salesman. He let the car sell itself just like I like and really leveled with me. I communicated with him the entire time, and the process went smooth. After inspecting the car and deciding I was for sure going to buy it, they also did a great job facilitating that. Ryan Lapierre really helped make me feel comfortable with the buying process as it was my first time buying a car. So there you have it. They went above and beyond for me. I am very happy with my purchase, and can't believe everything went so well. The only complaint I have that I feel worth mentioning is that Eric Gates clearly doesn't care about customer service. He is the finance guy, and his dad owns the dealership. He isn't paid to be nice, he is paid to make money, and its his Dad's company, so he can pretty much do whatever he wants and will generally have that attitude. Overall I can't speak to his true character, I can say though in experience he wasn't exactly comforting but did his job. I hope one day he is more humbled and can conduct business better. I almost walked out at one point because of his dismissive elitist attitude. However, Ryan and Brian convinced me to stay and helped make things more comfortable. After Ryan intervened, things were back to super awesome, and well... I bought a car lol. So Thank you Gates team for making the experience awesome. More
