This is not the first vehicle we've bought from Kristie. She made the process easy. Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Kristy was the best!! We came in with 0 expectations due to previous bad experiences in car buying elsewhere. We ended up leaving in a dream vehicle after only a couple hours of being there! It wasn't a whole day process and she gave space for my husband and I to make a decision that we both felt good about when we left 😀 10/10 recommend

We truly appreciate the 10/10 recommendation and hope you’re loving your new ride! 😀

Highly recommend Pilson Jeep! From the sales team to the service center, every experience has been excellent. I have purchased several Jeeps from Kristy G., and she always goes above and beyond to make sure you’re taken care of. If you’re looking for a great dealership with outstanding customer service, Pilson Jeep is the place to go!

I recently bought a 2025 Nissan Altima and could not be happier with my purchase! The car drives incredibly well and has great gas mileage, making it perfect for my daily driving. A huge thank you to my dealer, Kristy, who was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She made everything smooth, stress-free, and straightforward from start to finish. I highly recommend both the 2025 Altima and Kristy if you are looking for a great new vehicle!

Our experience was AMAZING. Kristy went above and beyond to help us find the right car for us and our needs, and she made the whole experience smooth and easy. There were so many great cars to choose from it was tough to decide which one we liked the best. Highly recommend Kristy and we definitely will come back again for our next car.

Working with Kristy was the smoothest car buying experience. As a Sales Rep. she was very accommodating to my requests and concerns, and had exceptional follow up- even after my purchase was complete. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is currently car shopping, and would return to her again if I was in the market to buy another vehicle.
