A painless car purchase I chose DePaulo Chevrolet to look at the Chevy Bolt.

I had driven a Prius V and a Prius Plugin for the past 9 years and was looking for a vehicle that left less of a carbon footprint than the plugin. I had heard about the Bolt and made an online appointment at DePaulo. Upon arrival Amy Shake was my customer service rep. We discuss what I was interested in and what I was willing to spend. After a day or so Amy and her customer team was able to get payments and down payment where I wanted. Thanks to Amy for all the effort. I am very pleased with the Bolt! More

Great, no-pressure car-buying experience I have purchased several vehicles during my lifetime, and this was the most pleasant car-buying experience I have ever had. I never felt "pressured" b I have purchased several vehicles during my lifetime, and this was the most pleasant car-buying experience I have ever had. I never felt "pressured" by Amy during the buying process, which has happened at some other dealerships. She also answered my many questions via both e-mail and text message - and when she was not sure of the answer, she found out the information and got back to me promptly. I highly recommend going to Amy Shake for your next car purchase! More
