“ Justice was amazing! He was so patient with us and very knowledgeable ”
“ DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP UNLESS YOU CAN NOT READ…OR IF YOU ARE DESPERATE FOR A VEHICLE. I came with an empty check ready to purchase a vehicle for the price that was listed on their website( I have a print out and screen recording of the listed price if needed) but magically, of course, that same vehicle’s price went up after I drove 30+minutes to this dealership…AGAIN I CAME WITH A BLANK CHECK READY TO BUY…..so this is how NOT to sell a car 101 lol….Anyways if you have made it this far, this dealership has no integrity and I’m sure that future victims won’t read this review and even if it won’t matter because I know that it won’t change any business practices lol but hey…why not try I guess. Again…unfortunately I know that most won’t/don’t have/were never taught the ability to read thoroughly so realistically I get that there will be somebody’s grandmother/grandfather/mother/father/sibling that will get finessed by these desperate bums looking for a quick check. Overall I know my opinion won’t matter lol but atleast I don’t have to wake up everyday lying to people for a small commission check 😂 ”
