How to Purchase a Vehicle Online

April 22, 2020 By Becca Gardner

Purchasing a vehicle online

How do you buy a car during a pandemic? This question has been on many minds especially those that need one because their car does not work, they were in an accident, or they want to take advantage of the deals. Your safety is our priority, we have implemented a virtual buying process for you to easily use during this time.

Virtual Communication Your Way

Interested in a car? Contact us via phone, text or email. Our team will provide a virtual tour of the vehicle you are interested via your preferred method of communication. We can send a video to your phone or hop on a zoom call with you, whichever is your preferred method of communication.

Test Drive from Your Driveway

Our team will gladly provide you a closer look at any vehicle you’re interested in via video chat, or we can bring the vehicle straight to your door.

Trade Appraisal in Your Driveway

On the lot, or on your front lawn, our team can assess the value of your trade on the spot.

“I was very pleased with the service I got from Keith, Taylor, and Alec. They made sure all of my questions were answered via the communication method I preferred. Keith went above and beyond to answer all my questions within minutes. Sent videos and photos without me even having to ask. I felt zero pressure during the whole experience which is commendable during this unprecedented pandemic. The buying process was all handled electronically and safely. They offered to make two separate trips 6 hours each for paperwork and vehicle delivery so I didn’t have to leave my home and was able to avoid any travel and risk of exposure to my family or have take time off work to do so. Thank you all for your help. I am in love with my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee.”
