I’ve had 20 vehicles from trade, sell or buy. 20! I haven’t had an issue that couldn’t be resolved. If you’re on the fence; open the door. Charlie, Denny and Lyle are great people, not salesmen. This is not a sales lot. It’s a true provider of great solutions.

I've purchased several cars over the years from Denny Dotson Automotive and it's always been a great experience. The customer service is fantastic, they find me the car I want if it's not on the lot and they always give me the best price for my trade. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Worked with me for the longest time. Absolutely straight forward and honest with you. They are great people and a breath of fresh air from the stereotypical dealership.

I recently bought and sold cars from Denny Dotson. I can’t possibly enough positive things about the whole experience. First, they are genuinely nice people. Denny and I instantly connected. No high pressure sales or awkward conversations. The car I purchased was magnificent and even better than their website description. The negotiation was completed in just a few minutes and I was totally happy. The car I sold was given a very fair offer. They sell carefully curated quality cars. If you are in the market for a great used vehicle I can’t recommend Denny Dotson highly enough. A notch above all auto dealers I’ve dealt with.

Finding a wonderful dealership can be challenging, but Denny Dotson Automotive stands out as a true gem. From the moment I was greeted by Charlie, our sales professional and Denny, the owner, we knew we were in great hands and they made the experience truly exceptional. Their commitment to excellence was evident in every interaction, always attentive and willing to go the extra mile. The passion and enthusiasm of the team created a positive and welcoming environment. My family has done business here in the past, and it's clear why this dealership is the best in the business. Their dedication to customer happiness sets a new standard in service. I wholeheartedly recommend Charlie, Denny and the entire team at Denny Dotson Automotive for anyone seeking not only a car but also an outstanding buying experience.

I’ve had the pleasure of purchasing several vehicles from Denny Dodson over the years, and every single experience has been nothing short of exceptional! These vehicles, while requiring top-notch maintenance, are incredibly well-priced and worth every penny. On one occasion, after a purchase, I had a minor issue, and Denny personally stepped in to make sure it was quickly resolved—talk about above-and-beyond service! Charlie C and the sales team are absolute rock stars! They’re honest, skilled, and passionate about what they do. They give you all the time you need to test drive and feel confident in your decision, and there’s zero pressure if you decide it’s not the right fit. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is unmatched. I can’t recommend them enough—five stars all the way! Thank you for setting the standard in car buying!

Best car buying experience I’ve had. Denny and Lyle seemed to only care that I got a reliable vehicle that I enjoyed, not about the money they were making. I even asked him about another car on the lot I had interest in and he told me that he wouldn’t sell it to me because it had too many issues. Huge green flag. Super friendly, loved to talk, and definitely took care of me and made sure what I was buying was in perfect condition. Thanks guys.

Let me tell you, Denny and Charles are the greatest, most helpful people I have dealt with. While out in 29 Palms for a military training exercise, is was able to work with them and secure and purchase a vehicle for my wife that she fell in love with. They understood my situation and the distance and the lack of phone communications, but still made time to work with me. The true professionalism and customer service is beyond outstanding. Thank you again and we’ll see you gentlemen once I get back. Semper Fi!

The greatest to do it. I’m all the way in Florida but THE MAN Charles knows how to make me feel like I’m in Ohio. Charles, if you are reading this. YOU ARE THE MAN. Honestly a great group of people that likes cars just like me. They sold me my dream car and I couldn’t be any happier. Every request I had like pictures or known flaws with the car, they had it right there. They got me approved for a loan when nobody else would for a 20+ year old car. I really appreciate y’all. Buy from this company. - Lucas

I highly recommend Denny Dotson Automotive. Ask for Charlie, he was great to work with. He didn't mess around. He gave me a good offer on my car (no negotiating, thank goodness), and the car we purchased was priced reasonably. Charlie answered my phone call at 9 am and I drove the car home by that afternoon. Charlie understood that I was coming from out of town and he made sure I could drive away with the car that day. He was willing to work with my local bank and had us out of there in no time. I was nervous to buy a car without my husband present, but I felt that Charlie was honest and would not steer me wrong. Thank you Denny Dotson Automotive, we love our new family car.

A dream come true experience!!!!These guys are great and not pushy at all. Charlie talked to me about several vehicles there and my options getting out of a leased vehicle. I felt no pressure when I finally made a decision after almost a month of me making a decision. Even when I did, everyone here was nice and willing to negotiate within reason. I will definitely be coming to Denny Dotson again in the future.

Had an amazing experience here! Charlie had met me on a Sunday when they were closed since we were traveling from outta town. He was so responsive,friendly, and professional with any questions I had. There was a small issue after I brought the car home and he was more than willing to help me with it! Great guys here and great cars! I'm so in love with my new car!

Thank you Charlie for the excellent customer service and support with every step of our buying and shipping process. This was our first vehicle purchase from out of state, so we had a lot of questions and concerns. Charlie was awesome, it was a breeze. He quickly eased our minds. The car arrived in perfect condition as described. I highly recommend Denny Dotson for your next vehicle purchase.
