This time around, Mr. Mike Dotson, PhD. was my salesperson. He was so very help throughout every step of the process. My car even came in earlier than expected from the manufacturer. Gay Family Kia makes the paperwork signing process so simple because they are partnered up with AMOCO Federal Credit Union, which saves folks so much time instead of having to run back and forth. My car was ready, washed, cleaned and full of gas when promised!! More

Mike was so knowledgeable about the electronics in the Sportage an I have never been shown and explained so much about the car that I was looking at! Mike was so knowledgeable about the electronics in the Sportage and it was almost overwhelming. I know that if I have any question Mike will take the time to explain again what I don’t understand or remember. Mike is definitely a people person! Even though Mike was very busy today with 2 or 3 customers, he never left me alone for more than a few minutes and came back to me as he said he would. I would definitely do business with Mike in the future! You have one great employee Kia! More
