I'm the proud father of 2 handsome little boys and 2 crazy cats. I love my GB Packers, Brewers, Badgers, and Bucks! I firmly believe that good service is the key to success and I apply that philosophy to every transaction. My goal is to make sure you have the information necessary to make strong financial decisions now and ensure your budget is manageable after the sale!

Quick, good price, and good value I was in a mission to buy a new vehicle. I am a sales man's worst nightmare to say the least. I'm a busy person, I know what I want, I know the pric I was in a mission to buy a new vehicle. I am a sales man's worst nightmare to say the least. I'm a busy person, I know what I want, I know the prices, I hate gimmicks, financing tricks, etc. Previously I walked away from several dealers because I was so irritated with them. I was very happy with Russ Darrow. I walked in, pointed to the car I wanted and 3 hours later I was driving my car home in time to get the kids from school. They were very good about explaining any extras, did not get pushy when I denied several and were always polite. Since I was pressed for time, they were very adamant that any questions, concerns, other they would be happy to assist me later. I opted to skip the in-car tutorial and there is a lot of tech. The gentlemen was respectful of my time and said I could call or drop by anytime for a crash course. Definitely recommend this dealer and I think the nissans are near the top for value right now.

Great salesman The young man Lance worked so hard to ensure that I walked out with the vehicle I wanted. He was also very attentive to me and my child as well.

Sales was fine; Financing was worst experience imaginable In November 2018 we purchased our first Nissan – a new 2018 Rogue – and the buying experience was a mix of awesome/great and totally dreadful. After In November 2018 we purchased our first Nissan – a new 2018 Rogue – and the buying experience was a mix of awesome/great and totally dreadful. After doing some research, test driving a few different models across other manufacturers, we narrowed our search down to the Rogue and felt comfortable with it. My sister has one, and love it – also, has had zero issues with it. We had a list of a few specific cars going into our visit, was able to quickly meet with an salesperson who was incredibly polite and helpful (Lance). We took a test drive, determined that was the car we wanted if we could agree to a price and trade-in value. The price was a minor frustration – we weren’t able to get down to the very low advertised price (because we did not meet all the discounts available), but I should have looked at the itemization beforehand, I would have caught that. Regardless, with some negotiation (I still don’t care for this), we were able to meet at a fair price – I wouldn’t say it was an out of this world, unbelievable deal, but it certainly tilted in the customers favor, so that is a plus. Then we met with a gentleman (I wish I could remember his name) to go over the features of the vehicle. He was also very polite and helpful. This is where the good experience came to a crashing halt – it was on to financing. We had to wait over an hour to even get into financing, and we soon found out why. The financing guy was one of the sleaziest salesmen we have ever encountered. He took an excessive amount of time going over extended warranties, coverages, maintenance plans, etc. And when we politely declined, he became indignant. He seemingly trashed our opinion of the car itself – we went from feeling great about our purchase to feeling like we got sold a pile of junk. He wasn’t helpful at all in terms of explaining the loan terms, we aren’t even entirely sure how we are to make our first payment – we didn’t even want to ask, as it meant he would probably keep us longer, circling back to all the add-ons we declined previously. Maybe 5-10% of our meeting was actually finance-related, the rest was explaining the extras and why we would eventually be sorry we didn’t purchase them, because Nissans apparently aren’t to be trusted. It was about an hour-long meeting, we got out of there before 11pm thankfully – we told him we had a dog to get home to and let out, and that didn’t matter to him, on went the sales-pitch. I am a reliability engineer, I understand how warranties are determined by manufacturers - no matter, he still insisted I was incorrect and that we would be sorry for not buying the extended coverage. We left angry, in our new car that we were supposed to be excited about – I have NEVER felt that way leaving a dealership in a new car. Going forward (i.e. being a return customer in a few years), we might be turned off from Nissan/Darrow entirely, and it stinks because our experience was awesome until financing. I have never purchased anything but GM, and every experience with them was a happy purchasing experience throughout (shout out to Luke at Sheboygan Chevy), and I never felt pressured to purchase, or shamed for not purchasing the add-ons. Financing people at that dealership are financing people, they made sure we understood the loan agreement, how to pay, etc - Unfortunately this is not the case at Darrow Nissan. Again, it sucks that we had this experience – we are still excited about the new Nissan Rogue (LOVE IT), but we sure wish the financing part wasn’t such a negative experience. In summary, buy elsewhere. More
