Brown & Brown Wholesale review

Came here expecting hidden fees and hours of back and

Came here expecting hidden fees and hours of back and forth and found none of that. We worked with Angel and test drove 2 cars fairly quickly. Shortly after we decided on a Scion. The price was a little higher than we budgeted for but Tristen was able to knock the price down a little to where we needed. Walked out the door happy, all within an hour and a half. If you want a pleasant experience, without hidden fees, Brown and Brown is the place. No nonsense indeed!

1996 Ford Explorer Limited review

BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK

THIS VEHICLE IS FUN TO DRIVE AND EASY TO MAINTAIN. I WILL BUY ANOTHER ONE. I LOVE HAVING THE V8 POWER OF THE OLD DAYS. NOT TOO CRAZY ABOUT THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE THOUGH. I RATHER HAVE THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON DEMAND.

There are 5 matching cars close to your year range.
