Amazing experience
Finding a car has always been dreadful for my sister and I. However, Kevin made this one of the easiest and best experience we have had. He was honest but also helpful and willing to help us get in a brand new Tucson. Thank you Kevin and the Don Bessett family.

Love the Palisade SEL
Jon and Kevin were very patient with me while making my decision of which car I wanted to purchase. My interest lied in the Palisade SEL, and they both were very patient with explaining all the benefits of the car. There seemed to be a shortage of this model and the dealership usually sold out as soon as they got them in stock. They mentioned that if I definitely wanted the car of my choice, I should put some money down, and it would be determined as sold to anybody else. I waited patiently for a couple weeks, and it was delivered to the dealership on my birthday. I basically had to go up and sign paperwork, and drive off... after Kevin took plenty of time to explain all the controls on the car, and get my phone hooked up to the car. Everybody at the dealership was very pleasant and helpful.

Best Service in Minot
The customer service is top notch. Chris was super helpful in helping me buy in a new car. With every question I ask he was able to answer it and if he didn't know he would verified. I would recommend this place to anyone that needs a new, pre-own, used, or just service for their car. Mahalo
