I was about 400+ away so i was pretty much at the mercy of Mike Campbells word and it paid off. I called tuesday and made the drive from Pensacola to Clearwater on Saturday and the truck was every bit as beautiful as he described it to me. I was in and out in approximately 45 minutes with my new truck so definitely no complaint there. Had a small snag as one of the window ventguards was broke but the GM immediately authorized a new set and they were overnighted to me the following week. I highly recommend Mike, he's a great guy and knows what he doing i.e. he doesn't mess around and waste time. Great experience!

I am very pleased with my 2008 Ford Edge that I purchased at Autoway Chevrolet Clearwater, FL and my salesman Gabriel Rodriquez. WHAT I AM VERY UPSET ABOUT IS THAT EVEN THOUGH I PURCHASED MY CAR IN NOV. 2012 I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN AN OWNERS OR SYNC MANUAL and this week will be Feb. 2013. THEREFORE I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO WORK MY ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM, MY BLUETOOTH OR ANY OF THE NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEMS. THERE ARE ALL THESE BUTTONS AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE THEM WORK. GABRIEL HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET ME THE MANUALS TO NO LUCK. I HAVE GIVEN UP AND ORDERED THEM ONLINE WHICH IS COSTING ME $60 PLUS DOLLARS TO GET. THEN ON TOP OF THAT - I DON'T KNOW THE SECURITY CODE TO GET INTO MY CAR. I FOUND OUT THAT I HAVE TO 1ST MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH AUTOWAY FORD IN ST. PETERSBURG, FL, THEN LEAVE IT THERE FOR HOURS SO THEY CAN USE A COMPUTER TO PUT IN A CODE AND THEN - GET THIS - I AM GOING TO GET CHARGED $87.00 TO HAVE THIS DONE. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. I SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON MY VEHICLE AND SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE CHARGED FOR THESE OWNER MANUALS AND MY SECURITY CODE. I know Gabriel tried his best to get these for me, but to no avail. I think his manager and/or the General Manager should have approved of giving their customer the tools they need to be safe with the vehicle at the time of purchase and not charge them extra for them. That is why I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND Autoway Chevrolet, the management does not back their salesman and take care of their customers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After dealing with so many unprofessional dealerships, I was glad to finally run into Mr. Mike Campbell and his Autoway team. Mike and the manager (Mark) were extremely nice and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy. Both of them were straight shooters (A very important/rare quality in a car salesman).

I was buying my first vehicle and it couldn't of gone better. They found me my perfect vehicle and haggled like true gentlemen. The overall experience at this facility was exceptional.

Bottomline: Mike Campbell goes out of his way for you to make sure you get what you want and that you are happy...any time of the day, any day of the week. Exceptionally professional.

Thanks Mike. It was a pleasure.

DON'T TRUST THIS DEALER.

We made a deal (received a documented quote) and scheduled a time to pick up the vehicle (confirmed by the salesman via an email). We cleaned out the tradein and got all the papers together. Shortly before driving down to pick it up we got a voice message from the sales manager. He said - don't bother to come down to pick up your new vehicle since we sold it to someone else. He never even appologized in the message. I called back and left a voice message for him to call me which he never did. I suspect they got a better deal.

Since then we've got several notices to activate On-Star so they must have documented the sale to Chevy.

We also gave them a promotion offer for a $50 gift certificate for test driving a vehicle which we never received.

We documented the problem to the Chevy Customer Assistance Center. They were a complete waste of time since they said they have no control over dealers and pushed the issue back to the dealer. They just wanted to get the issue off of their books without doing anything. In the last correspondence with the Center they said we should call the dealer manager.

Needless to say we are completely disatisfied with both Autoway and Chevy Customer Assistance.

My decision to do business with AutoWay Chevrolet was based on (2) factors. The first being that I purchased my original vehicle from their dealership in 2008 from Gabriel Rodriguez. I had never forgotten my experience with AutoWay Chevrolet, it had been a positive one that I reflected on throughout the years of owning my first "new" vehicle. In 2008 Gabriel took the time to actually "listen" to what my husband and I wanted, going the extra mile to ensure our needs were met.

When deciding to "upgrade" vehicles in November of 2012 I telephoned AutoWay and asked for Gabriel. I told him who I was and that I had moved away but wanted to purchase another vehicle. I advised I did not want to work with anyone but him. We made an appointment to meet that afternoon. Upon arrival Gabriel had the vehicle I mentioned interest in on the phone waiting out front at the dealership. As with my first purchase in 2008, Gabriel listened to my "wants", we discussed options and smiling as he always does no matter what the situation, we completed the deal. I left with the vehicle of choice, completely satisfied once again with my business transaction at AutoWay Chevrolet.

Gabriel Rodriguez is a person who defines the meaning of "customer service". There is nothing more important in the business realm today than someone like Gabriel who focuses on his customer and maintains the beliefs that his customers are his business. Gabriel is an assest to AutoWay Chevrolet and a blessing to all of us that have the opportunity to become his customer! Thank you Gabriel for making my purchases a pleasant experience.

I went there with my CPO Chevy for my rear lights being out and after the service advisor, Chris Sullo, spent 45 minutes trying to figure out what he could charge me for since I am still under warranty, two hours later they finished working on it, a fuse was blown and they charged me 63.95 for it which I don't know why I paid. The next day the car wouldn't start I took it back and Chris Sullo said I needed a new battery and it would cost 177 dollars. I called Dimmit Chevy and they said its covered under warranty and any Chevy dealership can do the work. What a scam this place is, thats how they treat Chevy CPO customers? Yeah no thanks.

i just completed a purchase of a new 2013 camaro from Gabriel. I found the experience to very pleasent. My decision to purchase took me 2 months from my first visit with Gabriel. He was very knowledgable and helpful on every visit. I started out not very sure on which model i was interested in and he put up with all my questions about each of the packages and even comparing the 12s to the 13s.
my purchase visit was as smooth as pie as well. I will definitely call on Gabe for my next car purchase.
