On the website you can enter a price as an offer. I entered the price of $19,000. This was a little low but I was hoping we could negotiate. A coworker recommended this place to me. I visited the dealership and was late due to the construction (they didn't tell me!). I was given a salesperson who did not know anything about a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited! What's the horsepower? "Um, don't know, I'll have to ask" Is there hill descent control? Is there hill start assist? What is the engine? What are the tires? "Um, I'll have to get back with you about that". The guy was nice and there was no pressure. But really, he couldn't answer any of my questions. I told him about my price offer and that I had done research and thought it was pretty reasonable since the car is not new but used and there are better offers in in the area. He asked me if there were any other cars I was interested in. I said a Subaru Forester. He said he would go look and see if they had any on their other lots. He disappeared for some time and then returned with the manager. The manager told me there was no way I could get a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited anywhere around here for $19k. He said he looked at all of McGrath's lots and there was just no way. He showed me some computer paper which had a price of $25k which he said was the price they bought the car. Are you kidding me! What a bunch of malarkey! He said he would go down $500 but no more. Well, I thanked him for his time and walked out the store. I never did get the info on the Subaru or any of my Wrangler questions answered. It's probably for the best since I doubt the salesperson I was with knew anything about a Subaru either. They should have just told me they couldn't meet my price instead of wasting my time. The whole time I was waiting for the salesperson to find out about the Subaru, they were in the researching if there were any Jeep Unlimiteds for $19k? Really?! Why didn't they just come out and tell me straight up they couldn't meet my price but they could help me find another car? Instead they made me look like I was a liar! I guess it's okay for the salesperson to lie but if a customer is lying, then the management will spend 30 minutes doing research to find out if the customer is lying. Iowa is not a good place to buy a Jeep since they are overpriced here due to their popularity. Chicago is the best place to go to find a fair price. It's not as popular since most urbanites want a fuel efficient car. This experience left me really bad impressions of McGraths and Jeep. Only go here if you want a car that is overpriced and you are not willing (too lazy) to go to Chicago for a fair price.

I went into Rick's with relatively low expectations given that my experience with independent…read moredealers in the past has been less than great. The guys here were really relaxed, answered my questions and avoided anything that felt "used car salesman-y". Prices were the best I found in a wide radius and they were very willing to haggle a bit on price. The physical building wasn't much to look at, but in the end, I'm much more interested in a good deal than in paying for someone else's expensive overhead. The car came with a 30 day, 1000 mile warranty from the dealership as well - it was nice that they actually stick behind the cars they sell. In the end, the experience was good enough that I will be looking here again the next time I'm looking for a new (to me) vehicle.

My husband said he answered all his questions and easy to work with. We were also trading in a Murano. This was not our first time buying a car from Dave Wright. This would be our fifth time purchasing a new vehicle from them. When I returned from my trip we both worked with Zac but unfortunately ran into day off so we worked with Mercedes. She was very personable and knowledgeable and soon we decided it would be the Murano although the Rogue was so much better than the year I had a Rogue so I was very impressed with the changes Nissan made on the Rogue. Mercedes made herself available to us and answered any/all questions we had. I'm not sure we got the best deal on trade-in but saved us from selling it ourselves. Because everything is electronic and cameras everywhere, I'm impressed that Mercedes knew how to work everything on the display panel. I'm still learning myself. I would recommend highly using either Zac S or Mercedes to help you choose a new vehicle. No one was a hard sell, even finance. They just wanted us to get what we wanted. Again, this is our fifth vehicle from Dave Wright and predecessor so we've had a good run with Dave Wright.

Since we will be moving to Marion in the next six months, I will most assurectly visit Dave Wright Nissan for my next Murano (we've had 12).

Yesterday, January 16, the car revved up to 5000 RPM's, would not shift, and would not go over 35 mph. It also does not shift into reverse now. We've had this car 10 days. We have not even received the title in the mail yet even though they cashed the check more than a week ago (they said they would send us the title when the check cleared - it doesn't take 8 days for a piece of mail to travel within the same town). The car isn't even in our name yet and it's useless. We were also told upon purchase that the price included a 30 day warranty, however, nothing in our paperwork indicates the car has a warranty. I called and spoke to someone this morning and was told there was nothing they could do because their cars are sold as is. I was told "It doesn't matter if the car lasts 2 days, it was sold as is." I was also told that there's no way they told us there was a 30 day warranty when we purchased the car. They offered to look at the car, however, I would not trust that they would be honest with anything that was wrong or fix things correctly after this.
