Why does it take so long to buy a car?

It seems like my salesman dissapears for various lapses of time, what gives?

Answer: We have to obtain your financing, call for payoffs on your old vehicle, make sure we prepare the vehicle to showroom quality for delivery, get all of the DMV paperwork correct. Your salesman is working hard for you, to ensure that all the odds and ends are handled correctly.

What’s with all the delays?

Answer: Delays are generally from having to call your bank and obtaining a payoff on your trade-in or contacting wholesalers about your trade-in if you have a unique vehicle. Also, if credit is an issue it will take some time to nail down an exact interest rate as we have to contact the lenders. As we prepare your new vehicle, paperwork and financing we always have you, our customer, in mind.

How long will this take?

Answer: The time varies on a case by case basis. Its best to clear your schedule and invest some time into the purchase of your new car. We value your time and want to make your visit to  the dealership convenient and efficient. At Leif Johnson, we want to ensure that you have all the facts and understand everything from the financing to the features of the vehicle you are purchasing.
