    Our family was a loyal customer of this dealership for over 20 years, back when it was Emporia…read moreMotors. It used to be the only place we bought vehicles and had them serviced because the staff genuinely cared about their customers. Unfortunately, that changed a few years after Boyer bought the dealership. All of the great salespeople we knew left, and the welcoming atmosphere disappeared. When we bring our car in for service now, no one even acknowledges us. In the past, Steve Vaughan and the sales team would always stop to visit with customers and make you feel appreciated. That level of customer care is gone. Recently we went in to look at buying a vehicle and had a very disappointing experience. The salesperson, Jason, told us our car had hail damage, which, if it did, was not noticeable at all. Our vehicle was in very good condition and had been serviced at this dealership since we bought it. According to Kelley Blue Book, the trade-in value of our car was between $4,000 and $6,000. The dealership was advertising a promotion where they would double your trade-in value, yet they initially offered us only $2,000. Even doubled, that would only bring it to $4,000 -- the very bottom of the value range. The vehicle we were looking at (a Toyota RAV4) had scratches and a chipped windshield, yet they deducted money for those issues. When we told them our car was worth more than what they were offering, they suddenly increased the trade-in value but removed the discounts they had previously offered. When we said we were going to wait and keep looking, the pressure to buy immediately increased. This dealership is nothing like it used to be. We ended up purchasing a 2026 Chevy Trax from another dealer, where our trade-in value came in right within the Kelley Blue Book range. It's disappointing to see how far the customer service has declined from what Emporia Motors once was. I hope management takes these reviews seriously before more long-time customers decide to go elsewhere. After more than two decades as customers, we will not be returning.

    Wonderful, nice, knowledgeable dealership!!! Highly recommend!!! Worth the drive from Kansas City!!!read more
