Thanks Dylan Vanderwerf for the great experience at Dan
Thanks Dylan Vanderwerf for the great experience at Dan Deery love my new used truck....
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.

Mr Lee was awesome and scheduling me to look at the Aveo.
Mr Lee was awesome and scheduling me to look at the Aveo. What I didn’t know was that This was a stick shift which I cannot drive. However, I am still looking for a car.
Best Used Small Pickup for the money.
Nissan Frontier does what is needed for my family and new projects we are working on. Great on long trips, holds all we need when camping or working. Quieter than I expected on the highway. One caveat, the fuel mileage is not as good as I hoped.

My purchase experience of a Porsche Cayman was first
My purchase experience of a Porsche Cayman was first rate. Andrew, my sales assistant was most helpful in every way to make buying from WAG a pleasure. Shaun, the GM met my asking price on my trade in and moved the process along quickly. Erik, processed the paper work without any effort to sell me any extra plans. I bought a great Porsche at a price that was below market value. I know you will be well treated, as I was, by this team of professionals. Do what I did, get beyond the reviews and go in and meet these people and I bet you will be glad you did! Jeff K
