The buying process was easy.
The buying process was easy. But it did help that I already went with a pre-approval letter and check from my credit union. The only dislike was the sell of warranties. If I'm buying a pre-certified used vehicle, I shouldn't have to buy another warranty to cover electrical if the original warranty is bumper to bumper!
Good truck
I have a crew cab long box, 0nly 60000km on it right now, now issues- turning radius isn't great, im used to having to go back and forth 4-5 times to park, mirrors don't show enough, mileage is terrible, it has all the bells and whistles i need- truck has been very good. will hang onto it till it gives me serious issues--4 stars-

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.

I recently purchased the 2025 Nissan Kicks SV from Nissan
I recently purchased the 2025 Nissan Kicks SV from Nissan in Hopkinsville, KY, and the experience was exceptional! The service was top-notch, and Susan Johnson, my salesperson, was outstanding. I really appreciated the compliment received from the manager regarding my trade in. The entire team was professional, knowledgeable about the car’s features, friendly and the showroom was clean and comfortable. I have received numerous compliments on the Canyon Bronze color of the car. I have taken a short trip to Indiana, and I love the way it performed on the road. I am extremely proud to own this wonderful vehicle! Thank you all for the excellent service I received!

If you are in the market for a car you should definitely check out Ford Mullins of Olympia. I dead car shopping but had the BEST experience working with Ian Knight and the finance team. They gave us space to look, only approached when we were ready and were the friendliest folks through the entire process.

The 3 hour drive was well worth it!
We drove from Abilene, Tx (3 hours away) to look at a 2016 Hyundai Sonata. Let me just say that the long trip was well worth it! The customer service was great and the car was just what we wanted. We even got the car for a lower price than expected!! Finding Princeton Motors was truly a blessing. Thank you guys so much!
