Earlier this year, many folks responded to my question for reputable used car dealers. I'm still in transition but recently saw someone else asked the same question. So I compiled their answers. Thanks to all who responded!

Last summer Fred Rongier of BMW on Baum Blvd found a pristine used Volvo for me. He sells really fancy cars, which are lovely but not what I wanted, but he gets great cars as trade-ins. You might call him, 412-292-2496. Tell him I referred you.

My husband had a good experience buying a used Subaru
from #1 Cochran in Moroeville. His salesman wasn't
pushy at all and allowed him to keep the car over
night while we waited for our bank's loan paperwork to arrive. Beth Skinner


I have bought my past 2 cars from Enterprise Car Sales.  They are usually late model cars (i.e. 1.5 to 2 years old) which they take from their fleet while they˘re still in good shape.  They usually have around 25-30 thousand miles on them.  I haven˘t had to make any repairs other than the usual maintenance from wear and tear (i.e. brakes, tires).  Their cars are sold for blue book value, based on the make and model, age, and mileage.  I have used the North Versailles location on both occasions (ask for Dave Freeman).  My neighbors have also bought all of their cars (usually Toyotas & Nissans) for the past 10 years from the airport location. They have dealt with someone named Brooke Bertuca.

Good Luck!


Tower Auto on Freeport Road sells used, high end cars but they also have cheaper models that they take in on trade. I have bought my 2 most recent cars there; a Camry and an Altima.  Ask for Jared.


I have purchased 2 Hondas from Valley Honda in Monroeville and both
involved a trade in. One of the cars I purchased was brand new, the
other a used car - a lease car whose lease was up.  I still have it
after 10 years. Valley Honda was cheaper than Shadyside Honda (McKean).
We have been treated with excellent Customer Service with Valley and I
will go back again any time. My husband's mother also purchases her
Hondas from Valley. AND, they are right next to Moio's Bakery!!!

Good Luck,

I have bought twice from Staub Used Cars in Turtle Creek and was very 
pleased with both cars. The owner bought back the first one and fixed 
it up because he is also a mechanic. The second one was a 1990 Pontiac 
which his wife had been driving and which I bought for about $2400 in 
2001 and drove until last year. (2400/6 = 400 yr !) I haven't had any 
dealings with him since 2001, so I don't know if he's still in 
business but I hope so. The address is 463 Brown Ave., and the phone 
number is 412-823-3499. Good luck!

Go to Rohrich Toyota on West Liberty. They sell new but also used. Ask for Kevin. Can't recall his last name but tell him I sent you. My friend Ran used to be the service manager there,

they are wonderful and will do their best.

 

 

It dependes on how far you want to drive, but River Road Auto Sales in Apollo is AWESOME.  Their Chief Mechanic, Joel is a good friend of ours, and he has sold us 2 wonderful cars. Check out
their website.  www.riverroadautosales.com

Good Luck

My husband and I have bought several cars from a guy named  Steve
Laudenberg. He used to work for Baum  blvd. Dodge, but now works for 
Micks Chrylser Jeep i the North Hills.  He is a very nice guy.  Has
always been very honest with us and not tried to push us or sell us
something we couldn't afford.  His number is 412-367-7200.  We really
trust him and he has been in the car business a long time in Pittsburgh.
If you call him, tell Him Erin and Rad Sellner sent You.
Good luck,
Erin Sellner

 

I've been happy with the sales and service (Mainly the latter) at #1 Cochran in Murrysville (rt.22 east).

My daughter, Maureen Adams, is sales manager at Cochran South Hills. She is highly ethical (of course, her Dad would say that) and I think she can help you.  Her cell is 724-413-5966.  Tell her I said to call.  I get points for that.

I had a really good experience at Kenny Ross Chevrolet in Irwin a few years ago. When I had a minor problem with the car I'd bought there, Kenny himself called me and resolved the situation!

 

Good luck,

I am very happy with the people at Cochran and will
return there first when we car shop. We got a good car
for Damien at Kenny Ross Chev in Cranberry, also.  The
regular dealerships have a reputation to keep and I
think they're more responsive. I recommend both
Cochran and Ross but Cochran has the most respectful
salespeople when I go there alone.  Since I'm the one
that makes the final decisions and I pay the bills and
manage our budget, I appreciate that respect that I
didn't find quite the same anywhere else.  And there
were some good used car deals because they only take
the best.

This is a small family owned business but they do often have some used vehicles,

and also might do trade ins.

They've been doing my mechanical work on every vehicle I've owned since the mid 70's

and I trust them totally.
