Davis Chevrolet

I have been waiting for decades for the Electric Vehicle Technology to get to the point were it made sense to finally take the plunge. And it's finally here! Yes, it is still a bit 'bleeding edge' technolog Technology to get to the point were it made sense to finally take the plunge. And it's finally here! Yes, it is still a bit 'bleeding edge' technology but I think the Chevrolet has found a great balance between real world common sense functionality and man bragging gadgetry in the 2013 Chevy Volt. Now I did about 5 months of research on electric cars and the only other vehicle to come close to the Volt was the Telsa, but's it's hugely expensive and I don't want to buy anything from Toronto. So with my mind made up on my choice of vehicle, I next had to find the best Chevrolet dealer. Now, I went to Calgary and visited pretty much all the top Chevrolet dealerships. Most dealers (except Southgate who I liked very much) in Calgary were not that enthusiastic about helping me out. That's when I met Rob Page at Davis (formerly Airdrie Motors) in Airdrie. Rob was one of the most enthusiatic Volt sales persons I have ever met. He explained as much as possible about the Volt, including feedback he received from his other Volt customers, He answered most of the questions I had and followed up with us later on questions he could not answer. He did a great job at showing us the many gadgets and features of the Volt and took us on a great and educational test drive, the same day we showed up. Most other dealers wanted us to book an appointment, if the even had a Volt. Once we did decide to buy, Rob was pointed out to us what the process was to order, estimates of delivery and costs. If there were any problems then Rob fixed them promptly and professionally. We also decide to go for full financing (accountant recommendation). The process to get everything setup for this was painless and fun with Glenn Locke helping us out. Glenn has a great sense of humour that is balanced with a professionalism and attention to details that is unmatched. Because of these two gentlemen I will continue to make Davis my one and only sales and service center for my Chevrolet vehicles. I would highly recommend to others to check out Davis before the head to the big city, or if they want to get out of the big city. More

I just purchased my 14th General Motors vehicle (since 1967) thru Davis Chev in Airdrie AB. I have had the majority of my GM service work done at Davis (under the previous ownership) to my satisfaction. H 1967) thru Davis Chev in Airdrie AB. I have had the majority of my GM service work done at Davis (under the previous ownership) to my satisfaction. However, I have never been able to “negotiate” a deal on a new(r) vehclie under the previous Management (owners). While in for service the other day I strolled thru the new display area (as usual) and struck up a conversation with Demetrio Staffa, their Sales Consultant. After a few minutes of pointing out my expectations and a visit to 3 available 2012 Buick Lacrosses, I agreed that he shud put together an offer including my current 2010 Lacrosse as a trade- in. My current 2010 Lacrosse was purchased thru a Calgary dealer involving Mr Derek Lascelle, who was their Finance Manager at that time, and now was the Used Vehicle Sales Manager at Davis. Within a day I received a price offer including my trade- in at a value that was acceptable without any haggling, horse trading or negotiating of any kind. And, the next day the finances and trade- in matters were done, including taking off my winter tires, replacing my summer tires on my trade- in AND delivering my winter tires to my home in Airdrie at no cost. NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL SERVICE!! It is obvious the “new Sales Group” is bringing a whole new approach to Davis Chev – paying attention to customer expectations. My thanks to Derek Lascelle, Used Vehicle Sales Manager, Demetrio Staffa, my Sales Consultant, and Glenn Locke, Business Manager, for making this transaction as smooth and comfortable as possible, and of course Brad James, Service Manager and staff, for accommodating our needs, as usual. I am now looking forward to 5 years of worry free driving experience under the new protection of Davis Chev in Airdrie. Thank you all. Art Huzina Airdrie AB More

I have to say I was extremely nervous buying a used car as I am a single mother and was petrified of being ripped off. This was probably the best experience I could have had. Rob was super professional but as I am a single mother and was petrified of being ripped off. This was probably the best experience I could have had. Rob was super professional but was so easy to talk to. You can definitely tell he is a family man cause he really put him self in my shoes and assured me I was getting a quality car. I have already recommended Rob and Davis dealership to a few of my friends who are in the market for a used vehicle. More

The reason why I am giving Davis a review is because of the great service we received from Ray Krocker and Glenn Locke. We have worked with Ray for every vehicle that our family has leased/purchased in the the great service we received from Ray Krocker and Glenn Locke. We have worked with Ray for every vehicle that our family has leased/purchased in the past and we really appreciate his great knowledge and experience at the dealership. He has become a great friend of the family and we will continue coming to him for future purchases. This was our first time working with Glenn and we appreciated his honesty and the fact that he didn't pressure us into anything that we weren't interested in. Having employees like Ray play a big part in our purchase because he has never pushed us to make a decision "right now" and he has always made himself available when we want to see him. For example, when we picked up our vehicle Ray wasn't scheduled to be working but because a certain time worked for us he was available without complaint. Ray is a FANTASTIC sales consultant and we will recommend him to our friends and family in the future. More

Glenn Smaha has made a huge difference at Davis. Under the previous management I had serious reservations about this dealership (formerly Airdrie Pontiac). I am a life long GM fan. In the past 40 years the previous management I had serious reservations about this dealership (formerly Airdrie Pontiac). I am a life long GM fan. In the past 40 years I've owned over a dozen GM vehicles. I had purchased 2 of these from the former Airdrie Pontiac. The experience was poor to intolerable when it came to service and resolving problems. Thereafter I ended up buying most of GM's from CMP in Calgary. When Davis took over I decided to give the the new ownership a chance. Initial problems with service were quickly resolved when Glenn stepped in. As a result we purchased a 2012 Yukon XL from Davis. A GM vehicle is a GM vehicle no matter where it's bought. However having the level of customer support and management that Glenn brings to the table, makes purchasing or servicing a GM vehicle at Davis a guarantee of support and fair dealing. To borrow a phrase from an old saying, while GM makes great vehicles, Davis Chevrolet makes it worthwhile buying and owning GM's. More

I had an amazing experience. Mandy was very friendly and personable. She was professional and attentive, as well as made me feel like a peer. Derek Lascelle was awesome!!! He truely made me feel like fami personable. She was professional and attentive, as well as made me feel like a peer. Derek Lascelle was awesome!!! He truely made me feel like family and not just another "sale". He went above and beyond. We negotiated price via email on New Year's Day. It was so nice to know he worked on his day off to help me get to an agreed price. Glenn Locke was a breath of fresh air when it comes to the financing portion of the sale. He also made me feel like a peer and went to bat for me. Overall I would highly reccommend this dealership. I feel like I not only got a vehicle at th price I wanted...I also made new friends! Thank you Mandy, Derek and Glenn! More

Although I was unable to do business through your branch, Although I was unable to do business through your branch, we found the service to be exceptional. Mandy Deveau was by far the best salesperson I Although I was unable to do business through your branch, we found the service to be exceptional. Mandy Deveau was by far the best salesperson I encountered within the past few months of car shopping. She was thoroughly involved not only with the vehicles themselves, but with all of us personally. She was genuine, friendly, and approachable with any questions or concerns we had. As soon as we entered the dealership we were greeted by a no-pressure environment, and a friendly staff. Your dealership will be at the top of our list for any future purchases, all thanks to Mandy and Rick. More

I was having a hard time getting a straight answer from any of the dealers in Red Deer on a price on a vehicle, when I emailed Rob Page, he responded right away, and gave me the real price, when we went to any of the dealers in Red Deer on a price on a vehicle, when I emailed Rob Page, he responded right away, and gave me the real price, when we went to Airdrie to test the vehicle it was still the price he quoted me, he never added anything on. He explained every button to me before I drove my new Orlando home, making sure I was not nervous about anything. He set my radio to a bunch of stations for me before I left, and when I lost my stations he corrected it for me within 1/2 an hour. He was very patient with me. I have never had a dealer as helpful as he has been. I will certainly recommend other people to see Rob when purchasing a new vehicle in the future. It was well worth the drive from Red Deer to get the friendly service alone, I am enjoying my new Orlando, as it is a big change from my Firebird. Happy Customer, Linda Mckinlay More
