service personal are approchable

Easy to make service appointments service is quick. I will not deal with purchasing a car from this dealership. True Sharks and that's giving the real sharks a bad rap. Watch out for the red car hook in the show room, the best car and then you need to down grade but the price and deal dont match the less expensive car. They'll not deal one penny. Single women watch out, go in with grit.
