Right from the start Charlie was friendly and attentive to my needs and truly made me feel at home & comfortable. My budget put me in the certified pre-owned Mazda CX-5 category. Over the course of 2 half days, Charlie let me drive 4 vehicles! He was patient and kind, and I believed that it didn't it matter if I spent $20k or $200k as Charlie just wanted me to have the correct vehicle for my needs and happiness. I settled on a '22 Maxda CX-5 "CPO". The entire process was smooth from GM negotiations to Finance. At the end of the day, I got a car I love at the price that fit my budget. But none of this would have happened if I had not first been greeted by Charlie. Thank you, Ferman Mazda of Brandon, and special thanks to Mr. Charlie Epting for making my experience so wonderful. If you're in need of a vehicle, go see Charlie and tell him you read this review and Chris sent you! More

Charlie has been absolutely amazing and incredibly patient with me! I walked in on a Wednesday evening around 5:30 PM just to “look,” with no real plan. The friend who was with me highly recommended t patient with me! I walked in on a Wednesday evening around 5:30 PM just to “look,” with no real plan. The friend who was with me highly recommended the CX-5 since he owns one and loves it. All I knew was that I wanted a car with parking sensors, a power liftgate, and light-colored interiors (tan or white). Charlie worked tirelessly to find exactly what I was looking for and never made me feel rushed or pressured. At first, I was considering buying, but as we talked, I realized that leasing — which I’ve had for my past three cars — is still the best option for me. Charlie was very supportive and helped me find the perfect solution without pushing me in any direction. In the end, I walked out with a beautiful 2026 CX-5 lease with all the features I wanted (and more!), and to top it all off, he had the car waiting for me with a giant pink bow on it — my favorite color! 💖🎀 It made the whole experience feel extra special. Charlie is also a fellow cat lover, which made the experience even more enjoyable for me - Crazy Cat Lady!. 😊 I highly recommend Charlie, especially if you’re like me and don’t know much about cars. He truly made the entire process easy, stress-free, and even enjoyable! More
