Finally Found My Dream Jeep!

I was looking for the “perfect” Jeep for over a year. I did not want the stock Wrangler Unlimited nor was I looking for anything at the “extreme” end of the range as far as upgrades and accessories - I wanted something in between. I did my research and knew that I wanted the Rubicon with a few upgrades (a more than capable off-roader) that would still work as my daily driver. I knew what it was going to look like before I ever found it but, when I finally did, I had no idea how impressive it was going to be. Thanks to the incredible inventory and awesome folks at Mike Dodds Motor Trends in Alvin, Texas – I found my dream Jeep! From the moment I found the vehicle to communicating with the salesman to arriving at the dealership and going through the buying process to driving my new Rubicon the five hours back home, the entire experience was so exciting that I would do it again if I ever find myself in need, or want, of another used vehicle. The inventory at Motor Trends is impressive especially when it comes to Jeeps. If you’re in the market for a used vehicle, please give the good people at Mike Dodds Motor Trends in Alvin, Texas a call. You can also find them on eBay Motors. I highly recommend this dealership.

Fantastic!

These guys have figured it out, this was my first car buying experience that I didn’t feel totally exhausted after everything was completed. My salesman Robert got me the drive out price before I got there, I did the finance application on my phone. I was in and out in less than 90 mins. The whole staff was great. I never felt presured and I’ll certianly be back.

Ronell made purchasing my Audi so easy and painless. I love my Audi, and I would seriously recommend Mike Dodd's Motortrend, in Alvin, to anyone. NO PRESSURE buying. I wanted to drive everything because I was undecided on what I wanted. He pulled up vehicle by vehicle as test drove the ones I found appealing. Thank you Ronell for helping me buy my Audi.

We wont buy from anywhere else!

We have purchased 2 vehicles from Mike Dodd's in less than 6 months. The service we received from Robert Hines is always excellent! We keep coming back because the cars are of high quality and very reasonable pricing. Quick and easy process! We will definitely be back in a year to purchase a car for our daughter! Thanks Robert!!!

Excellent Buying Experience

My husband and I just purchased a Ford Expedition EL from Motor Trends. John Berardi was extremely helpful. I was nervous about purchasing out of state but John was patient, kind, honest and very knowledgeable. He made the overall experience so easy. I would highly recommend John and the staff at Motor Trends. We will definitely buy from this dealer again!

Best Car Buying Experience

My husband and I just purchased a Mercedes Benz GLK. The customer service was amazing and hassle free. A huge thanks to John Berardi for his prompt response and taking care of us. A big thank you to Cynthia in the finance dept. for getting the best deal possible. Will definitely be back again.

Good Process

John Berardi was very helpful and understanding. He also was very cooperative and concerned. Thanks! The overall experience was great and I would buy another car from here. Now, I am in a car I have wanted for a long time.

New Truck Owner

As an out of state customer I could not have been more satisfied with the entire experience of working with John Berardi and buying from Mike Dodd's. The open communication and complete satisfaction of this truck has made this trip for a vehicle purchase more than worth it. I would not hesitate to make the trip again and will definitely recommend Mike Dodd's Motor Trends and John Berardi to many others. Thank you for all your dedicated work & honesty!

Superior Service

I got a 2009 Ford Ranger as a Christmas present for myself thanks to John Berardi. The delivery was timely and the object was shiny, spotless, and has now been carrying me through the iced over roads of Northwest Texas in January without any problem whatsoever.

Excellent car buying Experience

Purchase 2 vehicles there, the whole transition and experience was smooth with minimum delay. Our sales person Robert was extremely informed on each vehicle. I would highly recommend Mike Dood for your next vehicle purchase.
