Outstanding support and service from Al Oxley. Purchased a truck from a different state and Al made the process as smooth as he could. I was and remain impressed.

My sales representative, Madeline, was very helpful and
My sales representative, Madeline, was very helpful and knowledgeable about the two vehicles that I was interested in purchasing. She arranged for one to be delivered from another dealership and she was very timely. She kept me informed throughout the process and was in close communication throughout the entire time - this is rare today so I was elated. Madeline made everything so pleasant and kept her promises. I love my new vehicle. Thanks, Bob Maxey

Jeremy is top notch!
Jeremy is top notch! The whole Team there is quality. Went looking for a new truck and if they didn't have the unicorn I was looking for, Jeremy found it and brought it in. This is my third vehicle I bought from Box Maxey in Fowelrville, won't be my last.

Dustin Shankle was great.
Dustin Shankle was great. My first time buying vehicle by myself but he was patient, kind and knowledgeable leading me through everything. Not pushy but there. I absolutely love Grace (the cars new name) but she has one problem she wants to go all the time. I might not get anything else done. Thank you Dustin

Mike Gentry is always a joy to work with.
Mike Gentry is always a joy to work with. He knows what i want and always goes out of his way to help me acquire just that. The showroom was clean and open but yet, still private. The best experience was being received amongst an abundance of flowers and plants.
