We had a fabulous experience working with Everett! He helped us find a pre-owned vehicle that was exactly what we were looking for. He was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process, and went above and beyond to answer our questions as we shopped around. Would definitely return here next time we need a car!
Our sales person, Everett, was a joy to chat with as we found our new-to-us vehicle! He was low-pressure and fun. The search lasted over a week as we considered multiple options and he was great about keeping in touch over text.
We have now bought 2 vehicles from Russ Darrow Kia and this last time we got the pleasure of working with Antonio and he was fantastic to work with! We happened to have both our smaller children with us and he didn't seem to mind even tried talking with them and interacting with them while we did some paper work. He has reached out a few times as well to make sure we are still loving our purchase. If your in the market for a car I highly recommend Antonio!!
