Got me a good car for what we needed it for... we turned in early and still charged us the full price for the 6 weeks instead of the 3 we used scammed us out of 300 dollars due to price hike because we turned it in early did not sign any agreement that stated this would happen.
Was not able to get the vehicle I requested. It wasn't aware that I need a major credit card
