Smooth and painless
Was working with 4 different KIA dealerships looking for a specific color and make of a 2023 Telluride. All promised me that they would be able to accommodate me but only Arapahoe KIA pulled through and kept me updated throughout the entire process. The expected arrival time was spot on. Once the vehicle arrived, the purchase process was smooth and painless. I got the car I wanted with no hassles whatsoever. Probably the first time ever in all my years of buying cars. Thank you Arapahoe KIA!
2023 Ford Explorer XLT
Have only had vehicle for 3 weeks but really like it. I’ve had F150’s for the past 12 years and thought I’d miss my truck, but I’m really enjoying this explorer. It’s more comfortable and fun to drive and the gas mileage is better.

Service was as expected.
Service was as expected. The rep was friendly and kept me informed regarding the progress of my service. I am very pleased. Thanks
Nice vehicle
Quiet, comfortable and powerful car. I have the twin turbo that puts out 400 hp. General gas mileage is 19-20 city and 24-25 highway. The only thing that I would change on this vehicle is that I would like to be able to turn off some of the automatic operations on a semi-permanent basis.

This was the best car buying experience of my life.
This was the best car buying experience of my life. Everyone here was absolutely incredible, zero pressure, and they came through with a hard to put together deal with also trading in another vehicle with negative equity. And Jalen was an absolute rockstar. I will definitely be referring lots of people to Echo Park in Thornton, and I highly recommend them.
Impressive
This is the first explorer that I have owned in nearly 30 years. I am coming from a ram 1500. I am surprised how comfortable this explorer is I’m really enjoying the gas mileage between 21 to 23 in town. I have not taken a trip on the highway yet.

We were traveling through Colorado and wanted to buy a new F350. We called on a Wednesday morning. Mo, the salesman who answered the phone, agreed to meet with us that afternoon when we arrived. We left before evening dinnertime, having purchased exactly the truck we wanted for a fair price. Outstanding.
