I really liked the used RAV4’s but I test drove some chevy’s and decided I wanted something new with Apple CarPlay , and all the nice modern features that I’ve really enjoyed with the chevy’s. Well let me just say that she delivered and then some!! No hard sell, no pushing on my price limit or on what to get, just an easy going and supportive saleswoman. My family will continue to support and do business with Rio Vista because their customer service is unmatched in my opinion. I highly recommended Rio Vista Chevrolet for anyone interested in buying a car, and especially go to Marcia! More
