Hi Tim, Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. We are very sorry that your recent experience with us left you disappointed. We try to get the best deal possible for our customers, which sometimes means sending their credit application to multiple banks. Usually these resolve in a few days; however, this should've been better communicated to you. Our managers are trying to reach you, but your phone number in our database isn't reaching you. If you would like to discuss this further, please send us the best contact information for you to katie@newtonmotorgroup.com. Thank you again, and we hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely, Katie R.

Katie, My number is in the database! Someone called me yesterday (4/20/23 and I was at my son's baseball game. My comments stand on Management not communicating at all. Gabe did what he could with the items at his disposal. However, there is PLENTY of wiggle room in used vehicles and they could have come down on the price a little to make the deal work. You win some and you lose some.....they lost us!
