Should of Come to Gateway First! I purchased an Outback in March 2018 and Joe Kostecki was our sales person. That experience was a pleasure and we were very happy all the way around. I purchased an Outback in March 2018 and Joe Kostecki was our sales person. That experience was a pleasure and we were very happy all the way around. On April 3rd of this year that car was broadsided and totaled. On April 13th after shopping at other Subaru dealers in Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania and experiencing less than satisfactory sales service we called Joe and 2 days later drove my new 2019 off the Gateway lot. Wendy's knowledge about tax credits was most appreciated, thank you Joe for your incentives and Zach for your clear explanation of the paperwork. All interactions were professional, friendly and most importantly, stress free! Lesson learned,....Buying a Subaru?..go straight to Gateway, no place else, and ask for Joe Kostecki!!! Thank you all!!!! More

Great place to get a Subaru. Joe was a great salesman to work with. He understood what we wanted and helped us get exactly that vehicle at a great price. The inventory was exten Joe was a great salesman to work with. He understood what we wanted and helped us get exactly that vehicle at a great price. The inventory was extensive and his knowledge of the vehicle gave us the confidence we were picking the right car for our needs. When we picked up our car, Joe spent a lot of time showing us the features and operational guidance, including getting our phones connected. We appreciate the ease in which we were able to complete the purchase. Joe is an outstanding salesman and deserves 5 smiley faces if you could put them here. More

I would not usually classify purchasing a car as a "pleasant experience", but buying this Subaru at Gateway and dealing with Joe Kostecki truly was. I love the Forrester, and Joe was extremely knowledgable of every aspect of the car. I left feeling totally confident in driving back to Seaford. There was never any feeling of pressure during the entire transaction, and the entire staff was pleasant. We left feeling we had not only found a great car, but a new friend. We'll definitely be back. More
