I was in the market for an Acura MDX and found one
I was in the market for an Acura MDX and found one (certified) on Beaver Chevrolet website for a very competitive price. I called and got Rich King in sales and am so thankful that he picked up the call. He was personable, professional, informed, and a straight shooter!! I told him the vehicle I was interested in and the specifics (money down, monthly payment etc) I needed to make it work. He went over the car fax w me and I put a deposit on it to hold as sold. I live 2.5 hours away and explained I would be disappointed if I drove all that way based on inaccurate information. I got there and he had the vehicle detailed and ready for my test drive…and everything was exactly as he said. Goto Beaver Chevrolet and ask for Rich King!! You won’t be disappointed. 😎
Simple, reliable, old, truck.
Simple, reliable, old, truck...nothing fancy, gets you from point A to point B. Very inexpensive to operative and maintain. Ford, as company,has lost its way, forgotten regular folks and working class folks, but they are not alone. It's a xxxx shame...

I bought my 1997 Ranger 4x4 3.
I bought my 1997 Ranger 4x4 3.0 automatic new. I has been my daily driver for most if that time. It hit 299'000 ten years ago and I drive it an hour one way just for work. That eiesnt I include my riad looos on tge weekends and running errands and such. The odometer has been stuck at 299,000 and I'm figuring well over 400k by now. Sadly I need to find a transmission. I lost 3 and 4th along with reverse. I'm fixing it. I'll never find something that will hold up lije this has. People tell me "You drive thay Ford piece of S***." I come right back and tell them and their Tacoma that when their truck hits 400k at 28 yearsvold and has been through the creeks and up the hills and has even been hit head on by a texting teen back in 03 and it stillbgoes down the interstate wuth the best of them then they can talk crap about my truck. Until then shove off.

Great Purchase Experience
Friendly Owner and Sales staff, Fast Service, Great Price on a very clean pre-owned Lexus 450h. Left with a full tank, 90 day warranty and 3 months of free Sirius FM Radio. Well worth the 2 hour drive from Aiken, SC. Would highly recommend when searching for a good deal on a clean pre-owned vehicle.
Long Lasting Reliable Truck.
I bought a new 1997 Ford Ranger 4x4 4.0 v6 4 speed (w/ od). After 27yrs driving it...163000 mi...it's never left me stranded. A dead battery...twice. 235/75R15 M/T have been on it since the originals wore out. One clutch, one radiator, one blendoor and 2 break jobs. Flush out radiator every even year. Will finally change oil in manual transmission and transfer case. As well as in Rear and Front differentials. I'll do this on 25th of April '24. Needs radio and door lights stay on for a long long time. OH...and a very slow leak in the AC...I put in 2 small cans per yr. Small cans from auto stores...whatever is on sale. YUP...regular maintenance is the key, And I have been the only driver. My Wife likes sedans. Driven it overloaded pulling a small overloaded trailer from FL to CA twice and will do it a 3rd time in 2 months. I got lucky. R A Murillo

Good small truck
My mom had a 97 Ford ranger last for 425000 miles. Hardly any maintenance to it. Finally lost all compression but would still start. It would not give up. I own one now

Honest car dealer!
I needed a decent car for my son. I called Jesse at Seattle Auto Werx and he hooked us up with a great used car at a great price. Jesse was very honest when I called, and was very friendly when my son went to check out the car. Needless to say, it was a very good deal. I recommend giving Seattle Auto Werx a call for your used car needs
