Hello again Ms Solomon... thanks for the kind compliments. I try to remind out staff—-“ A customer who comes back to buy their second car from us is doing so with a high expectation—- Lets make sure we live up to that.” I tried to make sure that we met or exceeded all the things you loved about your First Destination Kia. Sounds like we were able to do just that!!!
