Was sold add-ons of wheel locks and a lojack system totaling over 600 dollars. I was told I could purchase the truck I wanted without them. Felt very taken advantage of that i spent soo much money to have these add-ons sitting in my glove box because I never wanted them

My radio didn't work. Went back to see what they could do to help and all they said was put 400 towards radio it cost 1158 to install a new one. This is so sad. Didn't offer a warranty on the truck

When I purchased it, you guys had to repair three times. The blue mini cooper needed a motor. You know that and yet never replaced it. It was junked for less than 4K and I still owe 11k. That was bad business on your part Andre Harris

I had a great experience with Edwin. I told him what I was looking for and how much I wanted to spend. He took his time and I found a great car at my price. I would definitely recommend them if you are looking a great car with great service.

Could not speak highly enough about the professionalism, easy of process, and satisfaction with the product delivered. Have recommended to many in less than a week since buying. Phenomenal experience.

1st I was connected with AI and it took me a bit to realize that. Hated me to come in taking a 1.5 hour drive one way.Gave me screwy answers. Then I got someone who understood what I wanted gave everything they asked for and I was then handed over to another person. Had given pics of my car, vin and other key facts and was looking for a trade number to see if it was worth the drive over to see the car. The 3rd person started up with me driving over and I explained I was not going to do a 3 hour round trip if I thought we were too far apart. I’ve purchased other vets where rough numbers were discussed over the phone. This was like pulling teeth and I did not feel comfortable if I drove over I would not be given to someone else!!!
