I was browsing craigslist looking for a SUV for under 8k when I noticed a few dealers in Marion had some options. I started with one that looked great on the outside but was sold as is. I took the SUV to Hubble's to get a used car inspection and to my surprise it was shiny on the outside but needed a ton of maintenance that was never taken care of. After the price of bringing the car up to a safe and road worthy condition the repairs were going to cost to much my mechanic recommended my to try these guys. I test drove a few and I noticed the prices were a touch higher then some of the other lots but they offered a warranty and did a presale inspection on them. I still took it over and had my mechanic inspect it and they thought the SUV was in very good mechanical shape so we made a deal and couldn't have been happier!

Stay far, far away from this dealer. Our experience started last Spring when we purchased a vehicle from them only to find out a week later that it needed a whole new engine. The engine light "somehow" had been disabled and the only way we found out was it was leaking oil. We took it to our mechanic who discovered the engine light had been disabled and that it needed a whole new engine which was more to fix than we paid for it. Houdek was unwilling to get us out of our contract and said it was not their responsibility to know any of this!! I have never in my life met such unprofessional people. We couldn't afford a lawyer to get out of the contract so we swapped out for another vehicle from them, they were also very stingy to negotiate the price on the other vehicle down. The felt no obligation for what had happened. Now this vehicle needs a new fuel tank!!! NEVER NEVER purchase from them!!!!!

We were in the market for a mid price range used vehicle, After getting the run around from a lot of dealers we were getting frustrated! I like that they clearly price there vehicles, We talked to a salesman named Corey who turned out to be one of the owners I think, It was sure nice not dealing with pushy salesman and he knew a lot about the inventory. We ended up purchasing our vehicle and have been happy. I would recommend them if you are in the market for a used vehicle.

I purchased a mini van for my family 3 months ago and we really love it. No issues and the kids are loving the DVD player the van had. Got my free Car-fax with it and they also arranged financing for us from a local credit union. I will be back!
