Transferred my lease, got a good deal Exceptional customer service. Mike Fountain contacted me to let me know that I might be interested in a special offer as I was nearing the end of my Exceptional customer service. Mike Fountain contacted me to let me know that I might be interested in a special offer as I was nearing the end of my lease and my mileage was close to 36,000. I'm a busy mom with 2 kids who are involved in a lot and I would never have time to spend an afternoon at the dealership seeing new cars. Dan Pakatar drove a car he thought I'd be interested to my work so I could have it for the day to see if I would like it.. Throughout the whole experience, I was treated with respect and honesty. I really appreciate all of that. More

Silverado #2 This was my second truck purchase with Damien and better than the first. I met him almost 4 years ago when I walked into Depaula with about 6 trucks I This was my second truck purchase with Damien and better than the first. I met him almost 4 years ago when I walked into Depaula with about 6 trucks I had picked out from the web site. He was great to deal with and a great personality. So, when I decided to buy another one, I emailed him to see if he was still at the dealership and luckily he was and I was there within hours. Second deal better than the first, excellent! He is an extremely capable person, dedicated to his job, his work and the dealership and I believe truly loves his job. Complementing his professionalism, is sense of humor that I especially enjoy! As his bio says, he does bake bread and in fact gave a loaf to each of his customers on delivery day. Apparently though he does this only for his first time customers as I left breadless! However, he will be my first contact when it's new truck time! More
