I drove 4 hours away to buy a Corvette at Fort Washington Chevrolet and drive it back home. My sales rep arranged for a free shuttle to pick me up at the rental co., 25 minutes away. The shuttle driver waited about 30 minutes for me to finally arrive and go through the return process with the rental co. When I arrived practically the entire staff welcomed and congratulated me on my purchase. While I was signing docs, my sales rep went to fill the gas tank free of charge. Afterwards, he showed me the ins and outs of the car and even gave me an expensive car cover that was given by the former owner and its original stereo. My sales rep and staff treated me like it was the 100th car I've bought from them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!…
