I could not be happier with my recent purchase of a Kia
I could not be happier with my recent purchase of a Kia Seltos! I owe it all to the help of my sales people, Julie C. and Bucky B. They were amazing, helping me navigate the usually unsavory task of car shopping... they even made it painless! And i love my new car!! Highly recommend this place!!!
I've had my 2021 kia rio hatchback since October '21.
I've had my 2021 kia rio hatchback since October '21. It is a solid reliable subcompact. It performs fine, and has enough power for its size. Wireless connectivity is a plus. Nice sound system. My only disappointment is no telescoping steering wheel (I'm tall) but you adjust, Very happy with this car!

I have been coming to Hudson Nissan on Sav Hwy for 2
I have been coming to Hudson Nissan on Sav Hwy for 2 years now for maintenance of my work fleet vehicle. The service team does a great job of making sure my vehicle is safe and well maintained. My service representative, Kenny, is amazing at communication, coordination, and helping to make sure all of my needs are met. They also provide a full service car wash coupon for after my appointment. Thank you for all that you do, Hudson Nissan!
I like this car!
2021 Rio Hatchback- I am quite happy with this car. Handles fine, great fuel milage, plenty of power for it's size (and I love its size) Wish it had a telescopic steering wheel, but you adjust. Apple CarPlay and 8" touchscreen is great.

Gets 46 mpg at this speed range on longer trips. Negative: Does not handle as well at higher speeds versus larger cars > 65mpg.

Good budget car
For its price point, the Kia Rio delivers and has *been* delivering for a couple years now. It is a very simple car with modest interior design but an exterior design that makes it stand out a bit more from the crowd, something that people complaining of cars all looking alike these days might find interest in. The ride is comfortable enough, and its performance on the road is enough to keep up with other cars without trouble; it is very easy on the gas and the steering wheel. The Rio is a reliable car. Mine had a leak in the transmission pan fairly early on, but that has been the only issue. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a simple budget car, especially one for a teenager.

RC Hill did not disappoint.
RC Hill did not disappoint. I shopped around to several different dealers who all low balled me on my vehicles trade in value. RC Hill however, not only met the Kelly Blue Book estimate but went above it to seal the deal. Will definitely use this dealership again!

I purchased a GLE 53 from Stevens Creek early this week
I purchased a GLE 53 from Stevens Creek early this week and my experience was exceptional. I scheduled an appointment to check out a twilight blue color and Ace (sales rep) did an excellent job to show me car functions and also a test drive. Also managed to get a good price as well working with Ace. Very knowledgeable. Process was extremely smooth with no pressure. Picked up the car after 2 days and Ace had the car very ready for pickup. He spent time to set me up with the Mercedes app, and also teaching me how to use different functions in the car. In no time I was enjoying my new car and living the dream! Highly recommend this dealership. My older car was also a Mercedes and was maintained by these guys for 7 years! I believe Mercedes makes the best and most fun to drive cars! Sam

Recall Service Review
My recall service appointment on 9/7/23 was reschedule by Jason Jackson. The reason was the tech going to be out for my original appointment which was 9/8/23. Jason Jackson service consultant at Suburban took care of me very well, I also ask him can we do the works package for an oil change with tire rotation. He said sure we can fit that in with your recall. Jason customer service is always on point and over the top.

Our experience was 5star!
Our experience was 5star! We picked this dealership because they had such a huge selection of F450 diesel trucks. From the moment we arrived and was approached by salesman DW, our experience only got better. He was knowledgeable, attentive and took great care of all of our needs. We had the spray in bed liner and retractable cover added with their customization shop and all was on point. I can’t say enough about the dealership and DW…the absolute best experience buying a vehicle!

Great team
Great bunch of kids - well, to me they are young. However - GA lost my title, then Nashville lost it so I still don't have a permanent car tag. That's been a harassment but I don't think it's on Car Max. I think some state workers are using COVID as an excuse to slack off.

I recently purchased a 2018 VW Beetle Convertible.
I recently purchased a 2018 VW Beetle Convertible. I ran a CarFax on the vehicle for my own peace of mind. It was mint condition with very low miles. My salesman was Hugh. He was great. I test drove the car on a Friday, filled everything out on line, was approved for my loan, came back on Monday and purchased the vehicle using the express checkout. My local VW dealership checked out the vehicle and it was perfect. Thanks CarMax.
