Oscar was Great! Great job thanks for all the extra help Tyler! From the moment we walked into the lot and started looking around at the cars. Oscar was kind not p Great job thanks for all the extra help Tyler! From the moment we walked into the lot and started looking around at the cars. Oscar was kind not pushy, asked what kind of car we were looking for and what size of car we had on mind. We gave him some information and he told us he would get keys and open some up so we could compare not only outside features but sit inside and open all the doors and see what each car had to offer! Then told us take our time, and showed us some key features of each different car. Asked if he could answer anymore question gave us his information. Then told us go ahead and look around he would give us time to talk between ourself, said to just ask anyone and they could get him if we didn't see him. Said please feel free to ask any questions! Very nice not pushy relaxing look at cars. Asked if we wanted to test drive any of the cars? We talked told him our pros and cons and our budget! WOW Great amount of information and we were able to make an informed decision bought the car ! Thank you Oscar and Tyler what a great car buying experience! We will tell others and we will be back! We came for a used car and bought a new car ! What a Great team Rio Vista has! More
