Unlike other dealers, Jason Padgett showed he cared from the start.Being in the predicament that my wife and i was in it looked as if the deal would never happen. But due to Jason's passion in helping others get what they deserve, he not only didnt give up at the first sight of being denied. He set his heart on getting my wife and i into the right vehicles. Jason Padgett and as well as Toma Dean was awesome from start to finish.I have went through the process of buying a car many times, but i would have to say hands down greatest ever. I highly recommend stopping in to see Jason.👍👍 for being the best!!

Traded my 2015 Chevy Silverado V8 5.3, 6 spd, 4x2,
by Retired Skipper from Tucson/ Colorado
May 4, 2019

My Chevy with apex 350 HP V8 4x2 was nearly always in the range of 21 MPG, where my 2018 Ram is running about 19 MPG, but is 5.7, and has 4x4, making it a bit heavier, plus about 50 more HP. The Silverado was quick, but the Ram hauls! Learning to keep my foot out of fast...
We make an annual trip of about 1000 miles back and forth to COfrom Tucson AZ, will be interesting to see how it does for MPG on highway.
Looked closely at the 19s, but purchased a slightly used 18, saving us about 10,000. Am questioning the wisdom of not getting the19, with latest technology?? Bottom line, darned hard to beat an exceptional truck! My toughest adjustment is the hockey puck transmission selector. I nearly purchased a Ram when I purchased the Silverado, but didn’t like the puck, I was correct, still hate it, lowest part of the truck! I’d pay more to have a traditional gear selector!!
In April, my husband and I visited this dealership for preliminary window shopping for a GMC Terrain. We met with Stephen Burton who was knowledgeable and very pleasant to work with. We test drove a few vehicles but made it clear we weren't quite ready to buy yet. Stephen was very understanding and didn't push us. We came back a few months later, July maybe, and asked for Stephen again who referred us to Tyler Meek, whom we eventually ended up buying from. Tyler was so much fun to work with and I was particularly impressed with his knowledge of the bumpiest roughest roads in the area to test drive for performance. We explained to him that it would be a few months before we were ready to buy, but would come back in a few months when we were ready. He was understanding, not pushy, and he gave me his business card which I made sure to hold onto. Truth be told, we had actually visited the Jeep dealership down the street to test drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee, which I was also considering especially since the vehicle I would be turning it was a Dodge, so we figured we would get a better deal for loyalty reasons. We had also met with someone over there months ago who we very much liked, but he ended up quitting before we came back and we were greeted with a pushy, annoying, and unpleasant sales rep instead. We never went back. Last week, we decided we were ready to take home a 2016 red GMC Terrain and I sent a very detailed email to Tyler the Wednesday prior explaining my must-haves and would-likes so he could work on tracking down my perfect Terrain before we came in on the weekend. I had looked at the inventory online and noticed that they didn't have what I wanted (specifically a FWD with dark interior) but was assured that they had something that matched my requirements. I was a little disappointed to go in on Sunday and see that my "perfect Terrain" was in fact an AWD though I made it very clear that is not what I wanted. Tyler apologized and said he overlooked that detail in my email, which was fine, but still a little disappointing. I was prepared to listen to him try to push us into buying the AWD but instead, he apologized and assured us he would look at other dealerships in the area and find the right one. So we ended up having to wait a couple days which wasn't too bad, but I do wish that had been addressed earlier so I could get the vehicle sooner. Nonetheless, Tyler was able to track down my perfect Terrain and not only deliver it within the time he promised, but texted me each step of the way so I was never left in the dark. I'm extremely happy with the service I have received from both him and Stephen and will highly recommend this dealership in the future. The process wasn't only painless, it was almost fun, which normally car-buying is really stressful. Although we probably could have received a better deal at the Dodge/Jeep dealership, we came back to GMC because I very much wanted to work with Tyler and give him our business.

If you are looking for a great experience when buying a car, Murray is the place to go. Our salesman JD was very knowledgeable and professional. My husband and I were statisfied with the way our deal was handled. This was our family???s 5th vehicle purchase from Dale and his team. Thanks guys!
We recently were looking for my 16 year old daughter a car. She began researching Southwest Car Agency and found so many cars to choose from. We finally went there and the first car we got into was sold the minute we sat in it but happy endings. She found one almost next to it. Her dream car. Extremely loaded for the right price. The process was so easy and quick. The agency was extremely helpful and easy to work with. We would recommend Southeast Car Agency to anyone. Loved the experience and will buy all my future cars from them.
This was a great buying experience for me and my mom. Thanks

I have owned 5 GMC Sierra Denali's and really loved those trucks but the 2019 Ram Limited is on a whole other level. The 5.7 is slightly slower than the 6.2 but in every other category the Ram is superior. I am very pleased with this truck.
Best salesman I???ve ever dealt with, It only took 2 hours, he had everything ready to go and Exactly what I asked for. His customer service skills were awesome his patients were wonderful and his sales experience is great. I truly recommend him to anyone going to buy a new car! He made are buying experience easy helpful and wonderful thank you Jason

This truck is the nicest vehicle I have ever driven. It’s beautiful to look at from the outside in. It’s extremely comfortable to drive, but also feels like a truck.
Bill Bowers took the time to go through several cars and multiple scenarios. Got the perfect car for me. Entire staff was pleasant and accommodating. The after purchase follow-up and attention to detail will make them a first choice for me and my friends/family in the future.

Best truck I ever owned

Smooth, good looking, Hemi strong RAM that made you feel like you owned the roads. Could not have asked for more out of a Truck, and I have owned many.
The 2019 Ram 1500 crew cab Rebel with air suspension, 12" nav display, and the 5.7 Hemi is pretty nice.
Pros: comfort, usb-c that quick charges front and back, easy to use nav system, comfortable ride (with caveats), nice convenience features like rain sensing wipers, etc. Awesome sunroof, great styling inside and out. Oh yeah, easy tailgate. Soft down and easy up. Electronic latch. I know that's low on the list but I sure is nice.
Cons: ride is not good in aero suspension setting. Have to turn off that feature. Fuel economy is terrible. Typical 11-13 mpg. If someone says it is higher they are either not using it in traffic or they are lying. The back up emergency braking is jarring and over sensitive to the point of being terrible and unusable.
I think the rebel is awesome, and the air suspension is a must. But get nerf bars because waiting for it to raise and lower every time you get out or in is not reasonable. It's not so much a con, but bears mentioning.
Reliability is anyone's guess, obviously. It is a strong truck. Transmission shifts very smoothly.
In the rebel you lose the 4-wheel auto setting, which is a really nice thing to have. My old ram had it and I got into the habit of using it in the rain when I wasn't hauling anything.
I do not like the super luxury trucks typically, but the Rebel trim is a great compromise. You get the rubber floor mats standard, reasonable off road capability (face it that's needed even if you don't go mudding), and while it is indeed a"pretty" truck, it can get down to business without you worrying you are going to scratch your Sunday go to meetin' vehicle. I opted for a drop in bedliner which I personally feel does a better job of protecting against dents.
In the end, you don't need my or anyone else's review to decide on a new ram. They are excellent vehicles. Far better fit and finish than any Ford, far better materials and comfort than any Chevy. Not that I'm a religious purist about it, but then again, I bought mine because my last truck was a ram. My next one might or might not be. For now, they are a clear winner.
Best experience ever, with Bryan Barton as Sales Associate.

This Ram has everything on it you need.

The Ram Bighorn is a very nice looking vehicle, with the performance require. The interior is comfortable and all euipment easy to use. Thr Ram has the ride of a Cadilac.
The all new 2019 Ram 1500 is beautifully designed and engineered as long as you are wanting to spend $58,000 on a piece of yard art. I hope that you enjoy spend a lot of time at your local dealership where you purchased it because it will either be sitting in your yard or at the dealership. I purchased mine on 1/18/19 which was the day the problems began. I noticed a damaged trim piece and I called it to the salespersons attention who in turn got the body shop manager involved. They said they would take care of the issue. When we went to sign the papers no we owe for the trim piece. Oh yeah, I forgot about that, after reminding them the paperwork was filled out. Well, it only took 3 times of ordering the part and trips to the dealer to get the proper piece put on. No big deal, its installed. The real problems started six days after I purchased the truck. Here comes the first recall in the mail. This one has to do with an intermittent steering failure due to a faulty ground connection. No parts in stock. Have to order it. Parts comes in, I have to take it back to have the work performed. Then almost 30 days later here comes the second recall notice in the mail. This one was for the brake pedal that could possibly fall off if you use the adjustable pedals. Again, no parts in stock. Have to order and be put on a waiting list. After several calls to FCA, and being hung up on one of those times, I was told that the repair parts were being issued to dealers in limited quantities. Can’t slow down production to take care of current customer issues, now can we? FCA advised me in the meantime, just don’t use the adjustable pedals. Of course, I already had, and the vehicle will be safe to drive. I don’t know about you but I’m not willing to risk driving a vehicle that the brake pedal could possibly fall off of because a customer service rep from FCA tells me it’s safe. I still haven’t been able to figure out how intermittent steering loss and the possibly of your brake pedal falling off is safe but I digress. FCA did give me four free oil changes for my trouble. SCORE!!! Then the front brakes would squeal terribly during stopping. Apparently, this is a known issue as there is a service bulletin on the condition. The solution, replace both front brake calipers and pads. That’s right, all new front brakes. Mind you there are only 2300 miles on the truck. Most of which was going to and from the dealer. The other issue is the speed adjustable volume can barely be heard at all. Why is the volume adjustment inadequate you ask? The reason the service advisor gave me was because the active noise control module is interfering with the speed adjustable volume. FCA has designed two systems that interfere with each other and installed them on a vehicle. The current solution to this? Use the steering wheel controls to adjust the volume. Service said they tested other 2019 Ram’s on the lot and they all display the same condition so it’s not really a problem. By that logic if every engine explodes at 5000 miles then it’s not really a problem because hey, they all do it. I spent an extra $4,595.00 for the level 2 equipment group and another $1,095.00 for the 12-inch display and this is the answer I get. Completely unacceptable. I have been buying Dodge Ram’s since 2001, which is still on the road, and this by far is the worst Ram I have ever purchased. Three months in with these many issues I don’t want to think of what is next. If you are in need of a new truck now, stay as far away from the Ram as possible. I should have gone with my gut feeling and spent the extra money and bought the Ford. Save yourself a lot of time and trouble and buy something else. Time to see if I can get FCA to hang up on me again.
Sales person Kenya Ellis-Walker helped us filter through the choices we had researched. She is knowledgeable, relaxed, patient and listened to us so that she understood what each of us in this couple wanted. She is great.
Plus the whole Car Max experience is pleasant because you can flip among comparable cars of different makes and compare then and there. And you are not pressured at all because the sales people are salaried--the entire experience reduces stress and gives you more choice. Good for people who prefer space to think and options to compare.

This is my first truck. I traded in my 5 Series BMW for something more practical. Enjoying the power, style and the iconnect system is so well designed and very intuitive. I hope my joy for the truck continues for many years.
