The sales team at Village Pointe Toyota were very
The sales team at Village Pointe Toyota were very professional and a great help to me in my purchase of a new Toyota Tacoma 2025. I would like to personally recognize Brett Ramey for his outstanding customer service. His close attention to details, clear communication skills throughout the buying process made for a very satisfying experience. Thank you very much, Brett and Valley Pointe Toyota. I'm one happy Toyota owner! ~ William Raymond
3rd row seat folding mechanism
Love this car overall but I have only one complaint. I was putting some boxes in the rear of the car and one of the boxes must have touched the the rear seat folding mechanism as all of a sudden it tried to unfold the seats. If my grandchildren had been sitting there strapped in I hate to think what may have happened!! Wish you had coverage over the mechanism so this wouldn’t happen.

This dealership was simply FANTASTIC!
This dealership was simply FANTASTIC! There is such a wide selection of vehicles that are so clean and SO reasonably priced! My very knowledgeable sales associate, Dion, is just the best! He went above and beyond to get me the best deal possible! I HIGHLY recommend Lucky Wheels Auto Sales!
My dream car
This is my 4th Ford Explorer over the last 20 years and I am very happy. Every time I upgrade is nicer in every aspect. I am glad that after so many people telling me to just go to another style and company, I made the right decision.

Great experience with no pressure.
Great experience with no pressure. Salesman was professional and honest. The deal was completed by phone and text which made the paperwork process that much faster.
Very good car, durable and trustworthy
Love the inside room, 3rd row seat and the fact that the 2nd and 3rd row can be collapsed. Love the rear camera and all of the functions of being able to bring my phone apps up on the screen. So good for our very busy, on the go lifestyle

Big O Auto was a real nice experience.
Big O Auto was a real nice experience. They had a real nice Honda that was really rebuilt well. Jackson even went so far as to give me a virtual test drive. Yes. He recorded the drive and showed that everything worked and that there were no CELs. And even tho I’ve only had the car for a couple of weeks, it’s driving great. Big O Auto is a nice place to do business.

Bought my 2022 Pilot here back in May.
Bought my 2022 Pilot here back in May. Workmanship of the repairs were of good quality. Honest business, easy to work with and will make a fair deal! I always wait a bit to do reviews to see if anything crops up that needs tending to by the business. There was one instance I needed an extra lugnut, let them know, it was ordered and received promptly. Other than that, have had zero issues with my vehicle other than typical maintenance items. Would consider buying here again, should they have the vehicle I’m in the market for!
