Runde Chevrolet was the best car buying experience I have ever had and I have bought many cars from dealers. My salesman Harrison was great to work with and I feel gave me the best trade-in value for my vehicle without a bunch of bickering back and forth. Harrison kept me up to date on when my truck would be complete and in stock at Runde. Runde even offered to deliver to me in the Quad Cities, which to me went above and beyond most dealerships that I know of. All in all, Runde was great to work with and highly recommend giving them a chance when looking to buy a vehicle.

Jacob was was super! Got information I asked for quick. Friendly and the type of fellow that make you want to be friends. Delt with him before and when I emailed another salesman called and found out I had dealt with Jacob previously and he got me in touch. A feature that is unheard of anymore, not trying to cut in.

Jacob was very personable and straightforward. The deal was fair and Molly was easy to deal to deal with on the financing. My wife even enjoyed the experience. We are very happy with entire experience.

I liked the way i was treated. I did not feel pressured into buying a vechile. However the only thing i was disappointed in was the fact that when i was told the truck i bought would be here maybe a couple of days or possible week. Then still did not come for a month. Although my sales person did offer me a equivalent truck that came in but differant color. I did like the one he offered better. The downfall was i had to pay more money because of the price increase. 2200 dollars more. But i am happy at least i got one.

We worked with Jacob Puls - he was very easy to deal with. We had to order our vehicle due to the shortages. Jacob kept us informed with updates on the vehicle. He also did a great job with our trade, showing us about our new vehicle and the service center. We would definitely buy from him again!

I was kind of sad to see that Chevrolet took so many options away from the Silverado. Such as the fog lamps, sliding rear window and the power safety door locks for the rear doors @ our finger tips. I guess we could have had those things by paying Thousands of dollars more, but we weren't wanting to do that. Our previous truck had all the bells and whistles, and it came standard. This is our 9th brand new Chevrolet truck.

The dealer Brent was a very nice guy to work with and answered all of our questions. Gave a good explanation of the functions of the inside of the vehicles control panel. A hell of a nice guy. I'd recommend anyone to buy a vehicle with him.

I was receiving phone calls several times a week for 3 months to come up and get new brake pad installed so when I had time I made an appointment and I am about 35 miles away, got to my appointment and was checking in and was informed that not all of the pads were there. So I asked why all the phone calls then. The guy explained the situation and was very nice but someone else dropped the ball on this.

So I insisted that the calls stop until all the parts are there. Talking to the service guys about it and it sounds like that system need some work. So after 140 miles and. 3 1\2 hrs. the pads are on.
