This is the best car buying experience of my life.

This is the best car buying experience of my life. Ron made it an enjoyable experience and found exactly what I wanted at a great price! It was a lo of work to find the car and color I wanted but Ron Stephenitch kept at it until he found what I wanted , keeping in touch every step of the way. And other staff checked in with me with progress of the Corolla"s delivery. I highly recommend Ron. He also found the price that made me extremely happy. I will be a regular from now on. My name is Franklln Himes, PhD.

Worst place me and my husband could of went. They made us pay more then the car was worth. Second of all they gave us a car with tires and they could care a less. This place is in it for money not for there clients.

Another great experience with Ron Stephenitch he always finds what we need, our son is enjoying his new vehicle and is comfortable as a new driver. As we have experienced before at Ken Nelson it doesn't end with the sale. Thanks again!

Excellent

Very easy trading in my old car for a new. They took the time to listen to what we needed and suggested the perfect vehicle. Won't go anywhere else

*Lazy*

Very simple. I made an inquiry to purchase vin 5N1AZ2BS9MC119444. They didn't follow up. Revenue just walked out their door, and they don't seem to care.

Hi Chris, I apologize that no one followed up with you about your interest in that vehicle. Your business is important to us! Is it possible your inquiry could have come through under another name? I do not see your name in our system. I am hoping there is not an issue with us not receiving customer information, because we want to provide every customer with a great experience! Please give me a call or text at 815-288-4455 if you'd be so kind. - Mandy

Purchasing a car from KEN Nelson Dixon il

I had a wonderful experience purchasing my Toyota Rav from John Stinson at Ken Nelson. He listened to what my wants were in a car and found the right car for my budget. Highly recommend. Looking forward to many yrs driving my new car. Didn’t pressure me into buying which I appreciated. Thanks John

2017 Nissan Murano with Low Miledge

I was looking to buy local to support our community and people who work at Ken Nelson. Didn’t really need another car but my 2013 Nissan Murano’s value was at the premium point to get a good trade-in towards a newer one. Gave Ron Stephenitch my sales person a call. I asked him if he had anything newer but not brand new. He called me back right away and had just what I was looking for. 2017 Nissan Murano near brand new condition. It had low mileage and the price was close to what I was looking for. After discussions, we found the perfect deal! It’s so clean I don’t want to drive it! Thanks Ken Nelson for finding exactly what I was looking for.
