They were polite, respectful, and helpful. They did not pressure me into buying anything I didn't want, and they were quite honest about what they had.

I have purchased a total of ( 4 ) cars from these guys over the years,
and have never been disappointed.
Suffice to say, I wouldn't go anywhere else in Lincoln. They are "used car dealers", so you get what you pay for,
and if you use common sense you'll be fine.

Bought an electric car from B&D. They're an old school establishment so it was clear they weren't super familiar with electric cars. But I was really happy with the entire buying experience. Really nice and professional staff.

Pretty awful experience for me. Went to look at 2 Jeep wranglers. 1 was pretty sweet but they had it priced more expensive online than in person. No big deal really as it was a pleasant surprise to see the car I was interested in was less expensive than advertised. I looked at the other Jeep and their was a puddle of water inside due to the top leaking. Im sure they knew about it beforehand as the guy didnt act all surprised really. He told me to come back the next day so the owner could evaluate my trade in. I told him what Id prefer to get out of it, which was more than reasonable, and

Just recently bought our second car from them and, like before, had a very pleasant experience through out the entire process. Having the actual price on the car makes it simple and leaves out the haggling and stress. Everyone who works there is super friendly, including the owner. I highly recommend them and will be buying our next car from them.

Bought a 2012 highlander here and the guys were great! Very straightforward and helpful. Took care of everything I wanted and then went the extra mile. Very clean and great safety practices for the covid related issues. Highly recommend getting a vehicle here!
