Karl Chevrolet

I was buying the cheapest car they had on the lot but was treated just as well as if I was buying the most expensive car on the lot. Very professional and friendly everybody I came in contact with.

Karl Chevrolet has a great staff and business model. Their inventory offers the best selection in the midwest. The best part of doing business at Karl is the friendly staff and overall sales experience. It’s not high-​pressure, the facilities are clean and new, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
I also service my vehicle at Karl. The quick lube experience is similar to other dealerships, but the free car wash is a nice perk. Karl offers free shuttle service if you live or work nearby. If you are doing bigger service jobs, you may want to get a second or third quote from other shops in town — Karl is not always priced competitively.
Pros — inventory, experience, new car prices are best around, convenience
Cons — service work can be over-​priced

Probably one of the most recognizable landmarks in the City of Ankeny! You cannot miss the massive scale of the Karl Chevrolet lot here, it is very well designed with the layout, lights, and of course the size! Driving by at night on the interstate and seeing the grand lights gives the message in my mind of «WELCOME!».
I did not come here for a vehicle purchase, but for service on my vehicle in their service department. I set up an appointment online which was easy to do, and they emailed me back in a swift manner giving me details on the appointment and confirmation.
Their service department is very nice, just pull up to the service garage door, they will open up and you drive in. The staff members were all very friendly and professional. I’m not sure if it is like this all the time or I just went on a busy day, but the service length was over an hour (this also may be because of the service I needed done on my vehicle).
Very nice dealership! Again, I only have experience with their service department, not sales.

Update to review from 2÷20÷15. Received a call this morning from the manager seeing my review here on Unilocal.He was super nice and wanted to apologize for my negative experience and wanted me to give them another opportunity.
He wanted to say that he hoped I would understand where they were coming from and wanted to do business with me in the future. And as for the pricing of the Avalanche, it’s because of the high want and low quantity of the vehicle since they do not make them any longer. Still probably going to get a bigger truck or SUV.
I am still slightly upset by the stressful sales tactics since my husband is away with the military and I want him to see the vehicle but it is car sales and that is what it is. But because of my first stellar experience with Karl Chevorlette, it would help in my decision to return on our purchase of a new vehicle.
