Frankman Motor Company, Inc. review

Transparent, fair and easy.

August 15, 2024
By Tim from Sioux Falls

Transparent, fair and easy. Joe was very accommodating with test drives and answered all of my questions. We were never pressured during our visits. We have purchased two cars this year and both times the experience was great and the cars are very clean. Kudos to the detail center. Nate also was very helpful and thorough with the financing and extended warranty paperwork.
