Quick and easy sale.

I was in and out within an hour. Steve was easy to work with and he didn't try to talk me into something that I didn't want.

It's always a pleasure dealing at Gabus. I've dealt with Steve on numerous occasions and have always felt that he has given us the best deal possible as well as given us the customer service and follow through to keep us coming back. Thanks Steve

Great experience!

Bill was both friendly and professional. He found me the truck that I was looking for at a fair price. I would recommend Bill to anyone who is looking for a new vehicle.

Fantastic!

Steve has helped me and my parents out with multiple cars. He's always friendly and he makes it his priority to help you as fast as he can, get you the best car for your needs, and make the visit as great as he can.

Excellent customer service experience with David

David my sale's person was great. He took the time to treat me like I was the most important person. Bought the GMC Terrain got a great deal. I would recommend anyone to visit Gabas and get David for your sales person. He will get you a great deal.

Go Elsewhere for Service

We have purchased many cars (5+) from the dealer and love the sales, HATE the service managers. Many times they oversell you on services you don't need (flushes, filters etc.). They offer "The Works" oil changes for life which according to Ford is supposed to include tire rotation but they charge for the rotation every time. I brought my vehicle in for a repair and when I picked it up the air conditioner wouldn't work. It worked fine going in, didn't work when I picked it up. They said it was a coincidence. After much argument they graciously agreed to waive the "diagnostic fee" they wanted to charge to see why it isn't working and then when all is said and done they said the repair would be upwards of $500-600 to fix. I took to another dealer in town who fixed the problem for $79.00. Seriously??!! Both certified Ford Dealers. They have had several instances in overselling recommended flushes and filters that can't be burned through every 5000 miles. Rarely do you get in for an oil change and just leave with that. You usually are recommended to pay for something else. Mike is the worst sales person to deal with so avoid him at all costs if possible. Service Management really had no interest in looking into any concerns like above we brought them. So now even though we get "oil changes for life" we are taking our car elsewhere and paying for it.

Excellent Customer Service

This was the second car I purchased from Steve. He was just as friendly and easy to work with as the first time. I will definitely buy from him again!

Excellent experience

Steve did an excellent job finding the model I was looking for with the accessories I wanted at a fair price. Closing on the sale was seamless and we were able to leave in a very short period of time with our new F150.
