Question
How do you determine the trade-in value for a vehicle?
Answer
We value each trade on an independent scale. We look at multiple aspects but to name a few: year, condition, and current market value. Our pre-owned managers always complete a thorough assessment of your vehicle. After inspection of the vehicle and a quick test drive we are well prepared to give you top trade in value for your vehicle.
Question
Where can I order parts?

By contacting any of our dealerships and then requesting the parts department. All our dealerships are prepared to search our system to see if we have the part in stock and if we do not, they are also prepared to get the part ordered immediately to ensure quick delivery.
