Typical, talk-out-your butt, car dealership. Walki...
Typical, talk-out-your butt, car dealership. Walking in there were two salesmen talking to each other, we said hello and they looked us up and down and one said to the other, well I have work to do. Then the remaining one, yells back to some guy approaching, hey Johnny, they re yours.
Johnny seemed cool. Typical shmoozer type, he was training a guy named Eric who actually sold us the truck we chose.
Eric knew all details and specs about the truck. He had great suggestions that were based on our needs. The information Eric gave us in comparison of the two trucks was what helped us make our decision. Eric tried showing us the Colorado because he owns one, when Johnny jumped in to say, they don t want that .. we test drove a Silverado (which is what we wanted) and there was another for slightly less and a year older, we asked to drive it and Johnny said, you don t want that truck! We insisted to drive it for the sake of car shopping . Then he asked Eric to take us on a short drive.
What I did want was a comparison and to drive, at least two, not the one and only truck I drove.
I had a trade in, they offered me way under it s value, they forgot to include my pay off amount so we had to agree to a higher payment, then after shaking my hand and congratulating me that I am approved, he asked to verify the address on my trade-in car title. He took my title! Back at our place trying to come up with documents that don t exist, I was inquiring with Johnny about the value of my trade in via text and his response seemed defensive and he made statements such as, I gave you, $3700 off. As if my under valued trade in was something he was giving me. He then said, would you like me to raise my truck back to the original price?
Huh?! I m just trying to get the truck, man.
Johnny pleaded that, it was Sunday and he can t do anything because the banks are closed. We sat and waited for Monday.
Monday came and no one called me back about the truck. This is now 36 hours after we test drove and were approved , Johnny became a bit rude via text. Requesting pay stubs that I couldn t possibly have (I m a contractor and have off NOV, they want a stub within 30days) I had written letters from my employers saying I have a job and that I make 100k per year.... I proved my annual income multiple ways.
I asked if I could please just come pick up my title.
When I did, the financier came over to explain/defend themselves. He said, he took my title because he held the truck for me. Ugh! With the value of my vehicle???
Nothing I could say mattered, it was an argument if I did. The last thing the financier said that really got me was, hey we did everything we can.... you can t prove you even have a job.
Excuse me?!
I have a great job and by saying that you prove that you never had faith in me to begin with. You show me that you never worked for me. Why would you, if you don t think I have a job?
I called De Nooyer Chevrolet, and the kind lady Emily on the phone said, hmmm I m not sure why DaPaula would turn you away, we would love to have you!
SO WE BOUGHT A BEAUTIFUL SILVERADO FROM DE NOOYER!!!
Same day on Monday, we were In and out! Ryan in sales and Scott in finance must have a really good history with their banks because I didn t have to prove my income 10 different ways. They stayed late and worked magic. We got what we needed and wanted.
De Nooyer is only another 15 min away and WAY better. Oh! And they gave me what my trade in was valued at.
Read my review with De Nooyer!
Also I was never left sitting at Ryan s desk waiting and wondering. They communicate so clearly and have a really great process. No cheesy selling. Straight up car transaction. Easy. I LOVE DE NOOYER CHEVROLET!
Sincerely,
Sonia aka Rebecca since Johnny can t seem to get it right.
