    Default Which Chevy dealer to go to?

    I don't think I've ever stepped foot in a Chevy dealer. Can anyone recommend a good one to pop my cherry?

    Thanks!

    I highly recommend Patrick at Shag if it's for service work. For sales Bill Liske at GSL

    That's actually odd for me to hear.
    Not to bash any dealers at all, but I went in there in June/July was in the showroom for a good 30 mins not one person approached me, I was sitting in one of the jacked up diesels and then I started it for about half a minute and still not a single person came up, they all looked at me like I'm invading their space.
    I finally grabbed someone and then he like rushed me through stuff trying to hurry me along, with a legit around the block test drive and slapping a contract in my face since he had someone else coming right away, which threw me off, anytime that happens else where typically you are handed off to someone or the one coming is, maybe it was an odd experience for me, but that deterred me.

    On the topic tho, GSL is always a competition with us and CMP even tho we own them.

    To be honest, i've never dealt with the sales staff there.... For sales, I have dealt with Chris V. at CMP, amazing service and great guy!!

    However, have dealt a lot with Shag, Shaw, CMP, Jack Carter, (and the old Northland Pontiac)... when it comes to Service and Parts.
    A knowledgeable parts guy will make it or break it for me tbh. Jack Carter is too far but theres an old trooper there (forgot his name), which is an amazing guy. And everyone i've run into at Shag has been great!

    So thus the Shaganappi reference from me.

    ... Not that i'm by far an expert in cars, but i know my fair share.. I haven't found one good sales guy in my past purchases tbh. It's always a look with a blank face when its a question or comment about something that isn't about the power windows, a/c or sun roof functions.

    Haha I 100% agree half my co workers know nothing, my background as a tech gives me the upper hand since I actually know about the stuff not just what the booklet tells me
