We stopped in in to “look” at a Suburban on your lot.

We stopped in in to “look” at a Suburban on your lot. We worked with Adam Delmege through the process. The finance guy did some miscalculations but in the end it was all worked out and we drove away with the vehicle. Very happy overall with how we were treated. Especially since the transaction lasted after your closing time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
