Dream Truck

I have been wanting to purchase a truck for quite some time. Shopping around, I came across a 2016 Chevy Silverado that was exactly what I wanted! I decided to visit Barker's to see the truck in question but it wasn't there. I was approached by Scotty who asked how he could help me and I told him about the Chevy. He was more than willing to locate the truck and had it brought to the Bloomington location in such a timely manner so that I could test drive it. After the test drive and getting to know Scotty's character, I felt at ease purchasing the truck from such an honest person. He gave me his fully undivided attention and helped me towards purchasing the vehicle of my dreams. Thank you for your help Scotty!

Thank you so much for the great review! We are so happy Scotty could make the buying experience smooth and get you into the Truck of your Dream's. Thank you again for the business!

Scotty is the man!

I had a great experience at Barkers today with my man Scotty. I was looking to trade in my 2500HD for a sporty 1500 and found what I was looking for and thanks to Scotty we made it happen. He was extremely helpful in the process and willing to just listen instead of just trying to sell. Look forward to seeing him in few years or earlier if need be. Thanks Scotty

Purchasing a new vehicle

Scotty greeted us at the door. He arranged for me to test drive 3 different vehicles, discussed all 3 and did not push me to purchase any of them. He made sure I got what I wanted. Everyone was very helpful and took time to make sure I was informed.

Purchasing a vehicle with Scotty’s help

Scotty met us as we were coming into the dealership. He was helpful in arranging for a couple test rides. Scott was never pushy in trying to make a sale yet always kept us informed throughout the entire process. Scotty is reliable. We had a great experience with everyone at the dealership. Everyone was helpful in providing assistance and information.

Specific request for specific 💰 (budget!)

I have always been a bit intimidated by shopping for vehicles. I met Scotty, and he specifically looked for a pickup truck, affordable, with crew cab, AND reliable! He found JUST THAT! A 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 HD 4WD ... with a crew cab. I’m impressed that he kept his eye out, found one, Plus, he went to bat and secured me a discount... Scotty’s fun to be around, and he’ll find something great to drive for you — and he’s right up front with everything. He makes certain the car/truck is clean, and he communicates with other departments well. I like his efficiency and attentiveness to focus in on MY needs for transportation. Thank you Scotty! I’m enjoying the wheels! Ann

Hi Ann! Thank you so much for the GREAT words and taking the time to give Scotty such a wonderful review! Thanks again for your Business.

Overall Happy with new truck!

Overall, very pleasant dealership. One thing that we felt was concerning was them listening to what we wanted to get out of this deal in the end. We felt that we had to repeat our specific requests but at the end of it, Scotty was willing to work hard to meet our request.

Sean and my Trailhawk!

My experience at Barker was excellent and not just because of the awesome car I bought from them. Sean Case, my salesman, was fantastic. A true pro. He made the entire experience easy and stress-free for me, which I very much appreciate because this process was out of my wheelhouse of experience. He was not pushy in the slightest and made me feel very relaxed when we took the Jeep for a test drive a few days before purchase. He was friendly and informative the entire way through. He wasn’t just looking for a sale, he wanted me to get something that I would love. I have no doubt in my mind that he’s the best salesman at Barker. I highly recommend going to see Sean if you want a smooth experience doing something that can feel pretty daunting for most people, buying a car. Thank you Sean and thank you Barker of Bloomington. 5 stars!
