I purchased a Truck from C. L. Hyman today and I'm very pleased. I was dreading buying a vehicle but they made the process extremely easy. I spoke with Chris who was very helpful and the salesman Andy was great. I had a mechanic examine the truck and was told everything looked good. Andy offered me a price that I thought was very fair and we agreed. I signed some papers and was out the door in my new truck in no time. I plan to buy from here in the future.

I was dreading buying a car, especially in 2022, but this dealership had exactly what I was looking for at a reasonable price, rather than price gouging in response to the current market. Andy, their salesman, made the whole buying process much smoother than I was anticipating, even initially staying late so I could test drive the car I was considering (and then subsequently bought) when I wasn't able to come at an earlier time due to work conflicts (He even thoughtfully put cartoons on to entertain the 6-year-old that was with me while I signed the paperwork!) This dealership also has long-established working relationships with other local institutions in their community, which, as a former resident of upstate NY, indicated to me they were trustworthy, and made me even more eager to do business with them. I will definitely be directing friends in the market for a vehicle to look at what CL Hyman has in stock in the future! Thanks y'all!

Bought my 4Runner there 4 years ago. They picked me up from the airport, treated me right. Test drove a few 4Runners and still ended up with the one I came for, and they gave me a really good deal on it. I've put 85,000 miles on it since then. I could not be happier with a car dealer than I am with CL Hyman Auto Wholesale.

I had a great experience with the staff at CL Hyman wholesale. I recently purchased a 2015 Ford Explorer from them and found the transaction very transparent, not pushy, and informal. After about 2500 miles, I noticed a coolant leak under my vehicle that appeared quite severe. I called Andy and informed him of the issue and he scheduled an appointment without delay.
I had been told by my mechanic that the issue was a water pump and that due to a design flaw from Ford, it could often result in big problems for the engines and always comes with a big bill. Chris Hyman got my vehicle to their mechanic who did diagnose the problem as being a faulty water pump. The Explorer was still under warranty provided by the dealership and there was never any hesitation on the part of this dealership to ensure the problem was fixed.
I think this deserves praise because we all have had an experience or know someone who has where someone attempts to subvert their responsibility, especially when there is money on the line. My vehicle was repaired in a timely manner and returned to me in great shape. Unfortunately this manner of doing business seems to be more of the exception than the rule. C L Hyman certainly followed through on their responsibility and did the right thing.

In the market for a truck, I found a couple of prospects from the AutoTrader app at this modest Auto Dealer in Ashland. The parking lot was jammed packed with cars and trucks for sale. If you're looking for a work truck or van, their selection is awesome. Located in an industrial area near Hanover Airport on Air Park Road, you'll find this unassuming auto wholesaler. Buying a vehicle can be intimidating, but not here.
We went into the plain brick facade, and we were greeted by a chill guy named Andy. The offices were casual, with piles of magazines on the coffee table, mix matched furniture, with a homey feel. No uptight sales pressure, Andy showed us the trucks we mentioned and let us go for a couple of tests drives. The prices were fair according to the current market.
We vacillated between two trucks. one was more practical, the other nicer with more bells and whistles. Mr. Hyman was instrumental in helping us decide. He was friendly, personable and pragmatic. We settled on a Chevy Avalanche that we loved. It was a nice ride, just right for our needs. As we entered Andy's office, he was down to earth and a wiz at assisting with our financing.
He performed his magic and we were happy with the outcome. He went above and beyond to help us get to the number we were shooting for. We chatted like friends, yet he always maintained his professionalism too. That's a tough tightrope to walk! Once everything was signed, sealed and delivered, we drove off in our new ride content with the experience!
For a relaxed, easy transaction, in a no pressure atmosphere with knowledgeable, pleasant folks, I recommend checking out this unpretentiousness auto dealer! And by the way, if you're looking for a back issue of a magazine, likely they'll have it on the coffee table!

Just purchased a car from C L Hyman. Extremely easy process and working with Andy was as good as it gets. They are fair and follow through on phone calls, emails and customer issues. My car had a minor issue upon final inspection and Andy made the necessary arrangements to get the issue resolved. I was hoping for the second set of keys and he was able to retrieve those along with other items that the original owner was still holding. Great customer service. I will definitely be visiting Andy again. Thanks. Well done.

Very pleased with my overall experience and purchase of my 2013 F150 made most of the deal over the phone I studied pictures saw scratches and dings the while remembering the Truck at time was going on 5 years old. Wasn't new but looked pretty great. Was really impressed when two days later I put all new tires all the way around that's when I noticed new brakes new rotors and the only reason I change tires yes because I wanted the same thing all the way around the tread on the old tires would have carried me six months to a year easily.
Since I've owned it I replaced the radio (Ford cheep radio) starter and water pump all are where and tear items normally replaced in these vehicles in that timeframe depending on the use. I blame none of that on CL Hyman. Will likely deal with again.

I was at first very pleased working with C.L. Hyman, found a car I liked listed on eBay from them, we took the negotiations offline and made a deal. Based on the information I was given by phone, (I was unable to travel to the car in person) I felt very pleased. After receiving shipment things went down hill from there, I was told there were some stone chips (normal) but the entire clear coat is peeling from hood to trunk.
It has a major oil leak from the motor( not mentioned)and the radiator leaks. I called the dealer and have had no response to date. I feel that I was mislead about the quality of the vehicle. I would have never made a long distance deal had there reviews been anything but good. On a positive note the salesman was pleasant to work with and the transaction went very well.
To wrap up, don't take the reviews at 100%, and yes I understand it was a used car, but not a neglected one. As others have done I saved a long time to buy my dream car (Lexus) to have them crushed with disappointment from this dealer.

Andy is nice enough on the phone. Not unpleasant to speak with. He made some inaccurate statements about the vehicle I bought from him. I live in GA and put a down payment on it then flew up to drive it home. It was a specific vehicle I had been looking for a long time. He told me all brakes were replaced and the rotors were shaved. Let me tell ya the back rotors had more ridges than the Appalachian Mountains!
Then he said the fuel gauge wasn't working when he acquired it but got it fixed. It's not working. Then he told me over the phone before I put the payment down (prior FBI vehicle) that there were no holes (for emergency equipment) in it except for some on the side panels by each rear window. I found 10 more holes along the roof liner and dashboard. If I hadn't already wasted the money for a plane ticket to get up there I would refused it.

Had a great experience purchasing a used car from Andy. Test driving was easy and he made us feel comfortable and there was no pressure. Andy made sure to get everything taken care of on the vehicle, even after we got home and discovered an issue. Most other used car dealerships would have told us too bad, you're on your own, but Andy made it right. Would go back!

These guys were great to work with. Even though I was only buying a relatively inexpensive older car, they went above and beyond to make sure it was right. I was coming in from out of town, and they were really helpful in terms of accommodating me logistically. The car is fantastic so far and I paid a very fair price.

Absolutely horrible experience with this dealer. Bought an SUV from them, two weeks later the transmission died and had to be replaced. Had to fight with the warranty company who essentially accused my mechanic of trying to extort money from me and them. The mechanic is a trusted family friend. CL Hyman rarely answered my calls or e-mails about these issues and promised to pay the rest of what the warranty company (eventually) paid after a month of negotiations, then never got back to me.
Now 6 months later there is engine trouble and traction control failure. I would be extremely cautious when buying from this dealer. Their lack of communication and lack of knowledge about the car they sold me was rediculous. I should have known better than to have bought an "is it what it is" vehicle from this wholesaler. I have spent a considerable amount of money on these surprise malfunctions from a dealer who takes your money and runs. Beware.

I have purchased cars for myself and family from CL Hyman for over 20 years and have always been satisfied with not only the quality of the vehicle but also the price. Highly recommend talking to Chris Hyman or one of his employees when you start looking for a vehicle and they will find you what you want.

I contacted Hyman Wholesale to get more information about a 2006 Toyota 4Runner that had been listed on eBay. From the very beginning, Andy was very responsive to emails and phone calls. He had great communication and followed through on everything he told me. I ended up purchasing the 4Runner, and Andy was kind enough to arrange transport at almost half the cost that I had been able to find myself.
The vehicle was delivered as described, and I am thoroughly enjoying it! The only thing that I did not expect was that there was a chip in the windshield. I contacted Andy about this. He told me he had not seen the chip, but he immediately offered to pay to have it repaired. I got it repaired, sent a copy of the receipt to Andy and received a check in the mail to cover the cost within a week.
The entire experience with Andy and Hyman Wholesale was excellent! I was very comfortable purchasing a vehicle from them, even though I was not able to see it in person before making the purchase. I would definitely do business with this dealership again, and I very highly recommend them to anyone who would like a smooth experience when purchasing a very nice vehicle!
