No support. As with other poster they were overtly racist and sexist, treating me a savvy mid-20's woman like I couldn't possibly know anything about men's business. The manager was a joke, as bad or worse as the employees in that dingy little single wide and their massive filthy dog kept jumping on me. I worked with Randall Peace, he sold me a car with a "All point inspection" oil dangerously low and filthy black, washer well empty which didn't matter because the wipers didn't work. I took it to my own mechanic who looked at the engine and said it was sound so I bought it. They held it overnight so i could get it registered to me. i picked it up in the morning, the 3/4 tank of gas, gone and the furl light was on and they stripped all the floor mats out saying if I wanted them there was an extra charge. That was the first clue of my poor choice. Less than 500 miles and had to replace both front axles and differentials. Almost 3 grand on the estimate. While he was in there they found that I needed bearings and ball joints. $4000. I called and spoke to the manager, and their mechanic who said that when he checked it was mechanically sound and then it must be driver abuse to have something go wrong like that so quickly. I told the manager that I was very upset, and he told me that "that was the color of business." Never again and I've told everyone I know what hacks and thrives they are. All I can think to do. Beware!!!No support. As with other poster they were overtly racist and sexist, treating me a savvy mid-20's woman like I couldn't possibly know anything about men's business.

I found a particular vehicle on R&E's site that I wanted to check out, and when I got there a couple hours later, I was told that it had just gone to Wasilla. Seems like it shouldn't be that hard to spend 10 seconds updating your website when you sell or move something as big as a car, but okay, that seems to be normal for other places. I then made the mistake of agreeing to let the owner show me a few other cars, and since the site had listed prices (although the cars actually on the lot didn't), I figured it would be fairly straightforward. Nope. I told him my price range and what I was looking for, which I'd based on existing research, and he immediately scoffed at that before tossing in a little casual racism ("don't buy from Craigslist, they're all Russians") and deliberately showing me cars well outside my price range when I know from his site that he had others I could have afforded. Except he wouldn't tell me the prices at all until I repeatedly asked, as if--because I'm a young woman--he could trick me into falling in love with a car I couldn't afford. I finally left when his condescending attitude turned into straight-up rudeness ("I'm not going to stand around playing games with you, all 'what does it cost'").I found a particular vehicle on R&E's site that I wanted to check out, and when I got there a couple hours later, I was told that it had just gone to Wasilla.
