Q:  How much do you think my trade is worth?

A:  For us to provide you with a definitive figure for your trade-in we must see the vehicle. Our typical professional appraisal only takes about 20 minutes and can be done while you are on a test drive.

Q:  What kind of interest rate will your dealership offer me?

A:  Many new Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicles offer special financing incentives to qualified buyers. If the vehicle you decided to purchase does not include any such financing programs we use many competing lenders, both local and national, who are eager to earn your business with a very aggressive interest rate.

A:  No, whether you decided to pay with cash or finance, your vehicle price will not change. We do not believe an individual’s payment method should influence the price.

Q:  If I receive a price quote from you will it change once I arrive at your dealership?

A:  Absolutely not! The price quote we provided is a real price on a real car that you can buy today.

Q:  Does your price quote include rebates and/or incentives that most people do not qualify for in order to lure me in?

A:  No, being transparent is something our dealership prides itself on. We will of course inform you of any programs that will help save you money. Our price quotes will not include something such as the Chevrolet Military incentive program ($500 on select vehicles) that few people would actually qualify for. With us, there is no need to read any fine print with disclaimers around our pricing. Our price quotes are straightforward with no smoke and mirrors.
