There was no pressure, pricing was fair and understandable and it was a very professional atmosphere. Our main contacts were Kelly Cornish-Sales (now retired- -enjoy!), Steve Sanders-Sales, Billy Conant- Finance and Britton Ankrum - Delivery Specialist. All were excellent, knowledgeable and professional. (All staff at the front reception area were always professional and helpful as well). Simply a great purchase experience! More
