Used cars for sale in Forest Lake, MN

Mandie is exceptional! She takes the time to learn what your needs are and is transparent in creating the best deal possible. I’ve referred numerous people to her and they all say the same thing. Don’t buy a car if your not buying from Mandie!

Great car for someone who is bigger and taller than the average person, comfortable, fast, and with super cruise she pretty much drives herself. Well worth the money for American quality and craftsmanship. Support the united auto workers union UAW

Our experience at Forest Lake Auto Group was excellent. Mandie was our salesperson and it couldn't have been any easier. She gave us a the 5 star treatment from beginning to end.

Having issues with the AC not working properly, had in 2xs for this an dealerships fines nothing wrong, tells me if it happens again bring back in.

Chris and Phil do an exceptional job at Right Buy Auto. They are very easy going and friendly. No Pressure sales. The price is the price, and VERY reasonable. I would recommend Right Buy to anyone!

I love this car I bought it for my wife for her Birthday and she just loves it. The ride is great and all the extras it has it perfect

I went in needing exactly what I wanted after hours if online research. When I saw the vehicle it was pristine and drove beautifully. Jeremy my salesperson was excellent. He was an all around nice person. I felt no pressure into buying anything extra. I will definitely recommend him to anyone I know in need of a vehicle.

This car drives, looks and feels like the luxury European models without the price tag. Mazda is a great brand. I will continue to buy.

I had a wonderful buying experience at Walter Polar Mazda. My CX 30 is a great car and I would recommended it to anyone who wants a small SUV.

I have driven Toyota’s most of my adult life. I cannot say anything bad about them. They are wonderful cars, and that has been my experience. I know a reputable owner of a used car dealership and he said that at my age (68), if I buy a Toyota pickup they will drive my family to my funeral in it. He said that it will outlast me, and I believe him! I just bought the Tacoma, and it runs great, but it only had 13,000 miles on it! They all run good when they’re new, but judging from past experience, it will be great also.

Overall fantastic experience ordering our ZR2 from Chris at Polar! He was absolutely amazing and kept up UTD on the whole process! We liked working with him and the Walser team so much, we are looking to buy more cars for our kids from them!!

2019 Camaro SS 1LE M6 is the best bang for the buck so far in my short time owning it. For being considered a "heavy" car, it is incredibly nimble and racy. Smooth when desired. (Notice I flipped those driving preferences!!!) Not a ton of space inside but the car is not meant to be a family daily driver. Although at first the car felt hard to see out of it, really is not that bad at all when you get used to the sight lines. Great fun!

Jacob K. Was an awesome salesperson. Complete honesty and straightforward. Has a customer for life here

I bought it at Brotherton Cadillac GMC in Renton Wa, Aman was a good salesman would buy again from there again and Brandee in finance was great!

Because of Zack, my service representative, I gained confidence in Walser and the work they do. He explained things in detail. He was very friendly and inspired the desire to return to Walser the next time I am in need of service on my vehicle. this was my first visit to this dealership.

The 2016 Subaru Outback is the first car I'd ever bought brand new, and I haven't been disappointed since it was purchased 7 years ago. It's very reliable, fun to drive, easy on gas, easy on maintenance and easy on the eyes. Will do it all over again when I make my next Subaru purchase!

I have been dealing with Johnny in the service department. I couldn?t ask for a nicer guy to work with while he was very professional and knowledgeable. He was also very personable and easy to talk to very respectful polite. He?s a keeper thank you Johnny for your patience with me.

The main issue I've had with this car is learning its vast number of controls, some of which are in strange places (such as at the end of the directional signal stalk) and are not clearly marked. The gearshift, for example, is counter-intuitive, and is moved backwards to go forwards, and vice versa-unlike most cars, it doesn't really move and fit into a slot for the appropriate gear. For no fathomable reason, the rear view camera stays on when you then drive forward. The warning system, for a car crossing or a person crossing, is unreliable; for example, if you have the car in reverse, the car hasn't moved yet, but a person walks behind the car, the warning signal does not sound--it only sounds if the car is already moving in reverse (if the pedestrian was walking right behind the car, you already hit him or her). There are also other "features" that make no sense. On the other hand, the car is fun to drive, reasonably powerful, attractive (I think--my wife disagrees), comfortable (except that one feels remarkably many bumps in the road), and quiet.

Lonnie provided great caring customer service and always has a smile to greet his customers & co-workers. He gives out positive energy to keep the place a happy environment!

This is my 3rd Tacoma. Purchased 2017 TRD New, no issues 91k Miles and still on original brake pads, alternator and starter. Mileage could be better.

My wife and I were looking for a 10-year-old vehicle in good condition, and high miles wasn’t a big concern as we are both well into retirement and only do local travel. We found exactly what we were looking for at the Bear Lot in Mounds View. The salesman we talked to assured me that even though the miles on the car put it beyond the available warranty, they don’t sell “bad” cars and if we aren’t satisfied with the car, we could return it within 30 days for a replacement. Unfortunately, within a few days the dreaded “Check Engine” light appeared. It was the type that takes a couple days of driving before it re-appears. It took five - repair, drive and fail cycles before the problem was resolved. The last being a major and expensive repair. During each repair event they provided us with an excellent “loaner” car, so we were not inconvenienced. I don’t know how many stars are given for excellent service, but from my experience, the Bear Lot should get an extra one. They turned what could have been an awful experience into one that reminded me that there are still good people and good companies around and I am very happy to have found one.

I bought mine as a pre owned. 32k miles. I've been hard on it too. I've gotten mine to hit 136mph on the interstate WITH the cvt. Most people don't know how to drive even an automatic. Let off and get right back on and get on hard. Car will downshift to a lower "gear" and hold the rpms in the higher range. Car has been amazing to me. I've only replaced tires, and oil/oil filter since I bought it. 0 problems and that's even after I rear ended a mustang! It wasn't even out of alignment after! 16.2k for a pre owned car with a nice HUD and blind spot camera. Definitely buying a Honda next

From the moment we made an appointment until papers were signed, the employees at the Bear Lot in Moundsview were a pleasure to work with! We worked with Elvis. My husband and I both talked it over and I don’t think we will go anywhere else in the future!

So I got 2012 Kia Forte EX, 2.0L, for an amazing price! How much and why, you ask? High mileage and cracked windshield, and wasn't cleaned up by the dealership yet. I just happened to see it right after the dealership took it. The window doesn't affect my sight. The high miles are because it was used for a work car. Where I live you travel an hour 1 way for most people. Didn't care about the miles. It was taken care of properly and I have been to. The only thing that drives me crazy if the timing click.i looked up how to fix it. It's a free fix. I've had to learn how to work on my own car since I don't have my husband here. Y'all I'm a 44 year old woman with DISABILITIES! I can work on this car without being totally confused and lost. I've learned to do my own brakes, which takes me longer to get the dang tire off than replacing the brackets and brake pads. I've learned to do a few other things too. I'm learning how to change my alternator this weekend. With a mechanic by my side telling me what to do every step of the way. I now have 250k miles on Batman, my kid's named the car, and I know he'll run another 250k as long as I keep up.on regular maintenance. You know oil changes, tune ups, and getting to know your car's every feel and sound. knowing if my car sounds funny or not acting right is important to me since I'm not able to run out and buy a new car or afford a shop to take it too. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE my Kia Forte EX. I can truly and honestly say the ONLY thing I hate on Batman is that he has a sealed system, meaning you can't check nor add transmission fluid. You can but you gotta be smart enough and brave enough to figure it out. It's possible for a non-mechanic to do this but I highly do not recommend you try it of you don't know what your doing. Overall this has been an amazing car and I'm never getting rid of it. It's amazing on gas, 28 miles per gallon still, in town! I'm moving 1500 miles away in another 5 weeks and I'm excited to see what kind of mileage I'll get. I recommend this car for someone getting their 1st car, or wants 1 to travel for work, a small family car, or just plain wants a cute car. I've always been a big Dodge and Ford fan, Kia's are now on my list of favorite vehicles. I'll definitely be crying when I give this car to my son in 2 more years when he starts driving.

Bought a new truck from the bear lot beautiful truck price was excellent service was above and beyond sales personnel very courteous and professional would highly recommend this lot

We use this vehicle for weekend outings and for just having fun. Very reliable, very comfortable and very fast. I think everyone should own one.

I have a 2012 Honda Civic .. Love it! always take care if needed .. low mileage 62,600 so far!!!! great car to purchase ..

It was easy buying a vehicle here. Process was smooth and painless.

I had a Ford Taurus Limited as a rental car once and told myself that if I ever bought a car it would be a Taurus. Traded in my 2018 F150 Lariat that had all of the bells and whistles for a 2017 Taurus Limited with 74k kms and I have not been dissapointed. All of the comforts and luxury in my Lariat I have in this car. It is sleek and powerful with an very large trunk. Beautiful black leather interior with wood accents. This will be my retirment vehicle for sure. Absolutely love this car!

I have leased two other vehicles from North Country Ford and now going to lease another one. Everyone who we have worked with has been very helpful and done a great job!

North Country Ford did an awesome job getting me into my new Maverick. They kept me informed through the build and shipping time. Received vehicle ahead of schedule.

On July 26, 2022 I picked up my fourth F150. This one was different. It was the first one I ordered (waited 10 mths.), the most costly and a hybrid. Now, almost a year later, I find I am greatly enjoying the truck. It tows 7000# with ease, is quiet, and the feature set is fantastic. Each rendition of the F150 has been better. I started with the 2009. Nice but heavy. The 2015 was the first aluminum one and I did have some trouble with the brake controller failing and catching fire. The 2017 was great but in its last year it developed a dripping leak when raining in the sunroof that thankfully I was able to fix. It was the best up until this one. The recalls-windshield motor and flickering taillights (LED flash). My motor was fine and the taillights were reprogrammed. I would say that is minor compared to my friend's Red Silverado who in 2015 got a notice that they were catching fire on rear defroster wiring! I haven't had any issues and I am just amazed at the technology. It drove me 200 miles to Tallahassee. I cannot wait for the BlueCruise update supposedly this year. I get about 3mpg better than my 2017 10spd, Ecoboost in town and about 1mpg better on the highway. It varies but that is about the average. Ecoboosts can be thirsty if you want power. They like to cruise so I have learned to get to speed, not crawl up and keep a light foot. I own a truck because I need one to tow my camper and I need one to serve dual purpose as a daily driver too. I find that the Ford F150 fits that bill. I have shopped all the choices on full size pickups. The only other truck, to me, that met my needs with positive factors was the GMC Denali diesel half ton. I was not impressed with the overall package of the Tundra, RAM or Titan. They did not check all the boxes for me. I look for comfort, MPG, engine/power/torque RPM power curve for towing, tow features, style, etc. The hybrid eco and the diesel blow the others away for low RPMs while towing which is torque and that makes for a more enjoyable tow. Less noise , stress, etc. My two finalists also got the best MPG. I leaned toward the hybrid more too because of the current stance on diesels and the DEF and the cost of the fuel compared to regular gas. As a long time sports sedan owner turned trucker, I would tell you to shop. Read and research but some facts, well, aren't facts. I remember my legacy of sports sedans and buying recommended models- LOL. The Lexus- bad radios- all of them on the lot, cyclops brake light bulb not replaceable when blown, BMW 328is coupe- bad electrical battery blew up 2yrs., Infiniti G38 jerking and slamming 8spd. auto transmission on Interstates on quick braking- these were all top rated/reviewed cars and not cheap. I had more trouble with those three than any other vehicles I ever have owned. If you are looking for a truck, a vehicle meant for hauling and towing, then I highly recommend an F150. There is a reason they have such high sales in spite of what some reviews say.

It was our second experience purchasing a car at Luther North County Ford. We have had positive experiences both times with both the personnel and facilities.

The service was very good from start to finish. Friendly, professional, and made the process of buying a used car easy.

had to get used to the truck now i love it. would recomend that you compare it to other trucks and you will love it

This process could not have been easier on my end. They got to my vehicle immediately and it took less than an hour. There was no hassle at all -- incredibly efficient process.

Yep, it's big. It's a 2-in-1 vehicle that I jokingly call a caruck. The grandkids love it and so do my wife and I. I wanted one with an 8' bed, but that one wouldn't fit in the garage, so I settled for a 6.5 bed. The F-150 is comfortable, easy to drive, and gets surprisingly good gas mileage. That mileage drops a bit when towing. I use mine for family and for managing the farm. My only slight hangup is that I can't figure out how to handle the air conditioning for the back seat occupants. On a side note, I think city planners and architects were planning on things downsizing and this thing is anything but downsized. It fits almost everywhere and when it doesn't, it fits almost always somewhere close enough. I love it and would definitely buy another one.
