Emmons will sell me all my vehicles from now on! This was the easiest purchasing a car has ever been for me. George is nice and knowledgeable!
Great Vehicle
This is the 2nd XTERA I have owned I wish Nissian still made them. This is by far the best 4wheel drive vehicle in the snow. I have driven thru snow up to the bottom of the doors and handles great all year round

Camping and hauling Xterras
I have had two xterras and have never found a better SUV for camping and going to the home stores to haul lumber and household goods for my home projects... they are hardy and reliable to own and are 20 year vehicles.

Very good service.
Very good service. I was greeted promptly, and my service request was already recorded. I went to the waiting room and was updated on my vehicle's service.
Awesome Vehicle
This vehicle meets all my needs. I had a truck for 19 years and bought this one with only 7300 miles on it in 2015. Meets my purpose hauling my dog, groceries, home repairs, trips, tv's, etc. I'm a single senior female that does a lot of home repairs and it hauls everything I've put in it including a 70"TV. I have all oil changes made every 6 months and today 12-2020 only has 25,000 miles on it. Replaced 2 tires due to nails but it drives beautifully. Added outside black vinyl strips and black window guards and whitewall tires all for looks. Love the power getting on and off freeways. Always had a standard transmission before but do love the automatic transmission on this one. Seats could have been more comfortable, but at my 5'9" frame, they will do. Not looking for frills, just regular car use for a senior that goes only to Bingo and shopping. Love it.

Ful-line fixed my front breaks and rotors and changed my oil at an amazing price under the warranty I got with the car I bought from them. The communication and work done was all so smooth and efficient. Definitely will be going back for all other repairs and services:)
Love it!
Better car than the Jeep Wrangler and the Toyota FJ Cruiser. The Pro-4X is the top of the line Xterra and is available with leather seats, premium stereo, trailer hitch, skid plates, Bilstein gas-filled shocks, locking rear differential, hill descent assist, side bars, a cargo cover, roof mounted off-road lights, and other features.

My experience buying a car from Karen was great! She was very knowledgeable and made the car buying process straightforward.
Reliable & plenty of storage room.
It meets all my needs from having a place for my dog to hauling home shopping treasures. Eight years old & still runs like new. It’s too bad Nissan stop making this model.

My salesman was Michael Meis at John Elway Cadillac, they treated me well. I purchased a used Tesla, they were the ONLY dealer that knew how to apply the IRS rebate up front. No hidden fees or scammy stuff. Michael Meis was great in sales as was Jonathan (manager) and the rest of the team, wonderful dealership experience which is rare these days.

I was nervous buying a car for my daughter at a used car
I was nervous buying a car for my daughter at a used car dealership, but from the minute Dan introduced himself, and throughout the entire process, I was amazed at how great the whole experience was buying her VW Jetta. The whole staff worked with me to make sure that I was happy, the car was safe, and every concern was met. I will be buying another car here next year. I’m so glad I chose to come here!

What an amazing dealership.
What an amazing dealership. Friendly people. Easy to do business with. It was nice to have caring intelligent people taking care of finding the right car for me. Some of the nicest cars I have seen on a preowned car lot. As soon as I walked in I felt welcome and made a part of their family. I have purchased 3 cars for myself and all 3 of my children have purchased their vehicles there as well. Always a great experience. Their Sales person Mikey is funny looking but one of the kindest honest straightforward sales person I have worked with and met. I recommend this place to everyone looking for a vehicle.
