My daughter Kiyamma bought a Santa fe sport a few months
My daughter Kiyamma bought a Santa fe sport a few months ago and it has been great. I would like to thank you for her great experience.
2012 Nissan Frontier S review
Utilitarian, but a great vehicle
Very happy with the truck. Does not have a lot of towing capacity, but for my purposes, I could not be happier with the truck. It does everything that I need it to do and is very reliable. Handles off road better than could be expected for the size and holds up well.

CarNation Motors made the process of buying a car smooth
CarNation Motors made the process of buying a car smooth and easy. Mike was great to work with and I didn't feel pressured at all. He was willing to work with me on the price, and he answered all of my questions so that I was certain about my purchase. All in all a great experience. I would definitely recommend!
