Just got home from Georgis and checking out a few of their trucks. I wont make any claims on the legitimacy of their business, but I will say I came away with a very shady impression of the place. I am a younger guy, only a couple years out of college, but have done well enough for myself to be able to upgrade to a better vehicle. However, I feel like I was treated as a non-serious buyer right from the get go. Right as I walked in the lot, Andre, who later stated he was the owner, walked over from a totally scrapped Tacoma in the middle of the lot that him and another guy were scrubbing the inside. So all of the previous comments about buying salvage titles and selling them as new seems pretty spot on. He asked what I needed, told him I was interested in buying a truck. He asked which kind. I told him a Tacoma and he pointed me to the lines of the Tacoma and that was it. After I seemed blown off he asked how much could I pay and was a little condescending with his tone. This guy had no interest in selling me a car from the get go. After looking around at his trucks alone, while he talked on the phone for 15 minutes I finally just stood in front of his office to wait for him to ask some questions. Once he was finished I asked if I could test drive a truck. He initially said no then quickly said it would be a half hour to put on plates. When I repeated a half hour he then said hour and a half, no joke. I asked if I could make an appointment at a later date he said that was fine then asked about my credit. I didnt tell him specifics obviously, but he then told me that if I had bad credit he wouldnt sell me a truck. Real nice assumption on a first impression from a so called "car salesman". The experience was bad. I would not trust this dealership. If you are going to buy from them, do a TON of research and make sure you dont get screwed...meaning just dont buy from them. Sorry, Andre the "owner", but you suck at your job. I am going to buy a Tacoma despite your assumptions, but not from you or your business. If your product is as shady and poor as all of these reviews say they are you may want to brush up on your customer service.

This business is super shady, I read the reviews prior to going to the lot but decided to check it out for myself. He does have a lot of Toyota trucks which are hard to come by in Colorado. After wandering around the lot for about 10 minutes somebody finally came to talk to me. I told him that I had read the reviews, and wanted to make sure if I bought a car that it would not be a lemon. His response was "tomorrow you or I could get struck by lightning and die, an engine is the same way you never know when it might break, Its not my responsibility." Every truck had a poorly painted undercarriage, most likely to hide rust, or scratch marks when a loader was moving it around on a salvage lot. Also I noticed that every Toyota truck had a TRD off-road sticker on it (which is the best build on Toyotas). Almost all these trucks did not actually have an off-road package. When I asked where he gets the cars he told me auctions with minor damage which he fixes and sells. Then I asked about a specific truck, and he told me it only been in a minor accident. When asked to look at the Carfax in the title he finally gave them to me, and it showed that the truck had been in a significant accident and was considered a total loss by the insurance company. He told me you cannot trust a Carfax and kept showing me the title. I have zero confidence that he made the repairs necessary to make this vehicle safe, especially after an insurance company had decided against it. Moral of the story is this place is super shady, and under no circumstances would I purchase a vehicle from him. The only reason that he has anything above a one star rating are a series of very suspicious reviews.

I consider myself as a savy automobile guy and Ive always bought my vehicles thru a dealership/auto broker. I got a wild hair and saw a vehicle I had been hunting down @ georgis and just decided to give it a shot. I never usually do this but thought there is a chance I could find the right vehicle and possibly give a small dealership a chance. I was dead wrong. In a nut shell, I located the vehicle there and got to look around on it and test drive it. I was told that it had one MINOR accident and no other issues. I was shown a pre-printed car fax on the vehicle that showed one accident as well and was told that it was all cosmetic with no frame damage. I also noted that the underside of the frame and other structure members had been sprayed with fresh glossy black paint. After further questioning I was told about some other underlying issues with replacement parts and more damage that was fixed but was reassured that everything was ok. I left and called a few of my contacts in the car business with experience for 10 plus years and had them pull a carfax. The vehicle came back completely totalled out by the insurance agency after the accident. A vehicle is a large purchase and I would not recommend buying from a place that is not honest with paperwork and information. Needless to say just trust your gut and watch for red flags. "If its to good to be true, it probably is."

Do not trust this dealership. The only positive reviews are ones they posted themselves. They knowingly lied, showed me fake CarFax, and sold me a very unsafe truck knowing I drive a 2 Year old little girl around. The car looked fine and seemed fine, it was in an accident far worse than explained. They said that it was in a mild fender bender and that the front end was the only issue and showed me how everything was replaced. They placed fake airbags and seat belts that didnt work. This is a family car and driving around pregnant I found that the drivers seatbelt didnt work and then later found that the airbags werent replaced and now that the passenger airbag doesnt work. I plan on calling them tomorrow and if they dont do anything about it, which seems like they wont I will go to the news and the paper and anyone else who cares about the public being safe. This is a very unsafe place to buy a car, not only because of the price rip off on a car that is half ass fixed but because they arent replacing safety features that are standard and necessary to drive a car, it wouldnt be as bad if they didnt lie about it. If I knew I was getting into a car I needed to dump so much extra money into I would have taken it to a shop long before they let me drive away with a toddler in it.

To anyone who ever considers buying from those people: DO NOT!!! All the negative reviews of this shady business, in my opinion, are true. I have bought a Mitsubishi truck from them a YEAR AND A HALF ago thinking that I was buying a car with a CLEAN title(as I was told, been reassured and shown the clean CarFax to with no isuues). Apparently, the car was in a much bigger accident that I was told it was in(they called it a fender bender). When I came to purchase a new car today from a Honda dealership, thinking that my car would be a nice Trade-In, is when my trouble started: I was told that my car has a SALVAGE title, even though there is not a word of that on the title itself. Boy, was I furious. After not buying a car for apparent reasons, I go straight to Georgis, where I am told that CarFax is not a legal document, that it proves absolutely nothing and that CO titles would never say if the car has been salvaged(wheres the logic?!). Plus, a vary honest Mr Georgi(who intrduced himself as Andrei for some reason) said that they would NEVER sell a car there with a Salvage title(really?!). Having no idea what to do with my car next AND having lost about $5000 on the way, the bottom line is: IF YOU HAVE ANY SELF-RESPECT, STAY AWAY FROM THIS STEALERSHIP. Aloha!
