The dealership is excellent. This particular rating instrument, not so much fun. When I needed a new password, it made me start over from the beginning. So, other than that, I This particular rating instrument, not so much fun. When I needed a new password, it made me start over from the beginning. So, other than that, I had a wonderful time buying this car. The car is amazing, but no more so than the people at the dealership who helped us. Starting with LaTonya White....a friendly and professional greeting. Delightful and easy conversation. While Ralph was busy with another customer, Fred showed us interesting details about the TX350. Met Justin, found he was from Memphis, and we had a brief conversation about Jazz and Blues, so well known from that city. Ralph made our buying a care an actual pleasure instead of the too often pressure cooker. We had none of that an it made purchasing the car all that much better. Ralph is not only a great salesman and an authentic one, but is simply a guy we would want to know no matter what. I look forward to many years of a fine relationship. When we signed the deal on the car, Jackson walked us patiently through some of the electronics involved. We are geezers, so he had his hands full with our ignorance . And great to be back in the more than capable hands of John Cate. Service is a vital thing for us living this far from a dealership. Seeing John Cate again was more than reassuring. So, congrats on the terrific work. Best buying experience we can remember and special thanks to Ralph Paty who did an above and beyond piece of work for us. Took care of us and cared about us. Can't beat that. More
