I used to work FOR Paul Blanco so I witnessed a lot of bad deals. This place takes advantage of people with poor credit, they don't try to help them. They lie to the customer's face, the salesmen will hide things that are wrong with the car so that the dealership won't get charged and therefore neither will their commission. This place buys cars from auctions ranging from $500 - $2500 (at the most) and they turn around and resell the vehicles for about 8, 9, or even 10k without even fixing any of the stuff that was wrong when they bought it. My wife had over a 600 credit score when she bought this vehicle, she is still paying 14% interest rate AND we have had to spend money that we don't really have on things that should have worked to begin with. The sun roof we can't even fix because the motor is blown and it would cost $2k...They do this to people everyday, I've witnessed it, they will get people into cars that they KNOW won't be able to make the first payment but who cares cuz they made their money and the person who gave every last penny they had will also lose their new piece of ### car. I think it is wrong and an out and out lie that Paul Blanco's commercials are all over the radio, people need to know the truth about him...also, I have a chronic pain illness which I have medical cannabis for and DAILY he would follow me around like a puppy asking for some...he'd make me drive him to secluded places to smoke WHILE he was at work. The whole dealership is a bad place. The owner Duane Gulbranson, had an affair with a co-worker, and when I found out he made excuses and eventually had the girl fired...I know details. That whole place is a dishonest joke. I hope you can help, I just want people to know the truth about this place.

Sounds like the above was written to discredit the above person. It was probably written by one of the employees. In any event they sound lame don't you think? From my recent experience. Paul Blanco and employees need to be criticized for their predatory lending practices. I too experienced lies by Fred, a sales person, then Jason the finance manager then Paul himself. The first car they tried to sell me had been in a major accident. I found out when I asked to see the Car-fax. I had just been told by Fred that they don't buy salvaged titles or lemon cars that dealerships must buy back the FIRST time around. Well that was probably not the first lie he told me and it was obviously not the last lie. This is not sour grapes. They tried very hard to sell me a used car for a new car price at 19+ percent. I have bad credit as a result of job loss which got me behind on my bills. My debt to income ratio was not the best but I "qualified" for a loan by two banks. After several hours in one day I returned with documents that were requested only to be told more documents were needed. When I requested my down payment returned and the deal cancelled. My down payment was not returned for several days. I gave cash and they wanted to send me a check. Paul Blanco and his employees mistake folks that have hit hard times in this economy as stupid or ignorant. BEWARE! I strongly suggest anyone who needs a car shop elsewhere.

My thing is if you knew that the company was so dishonest knowing that you worked there, why else then would you allow your wife to go there and buy a car, you are not an angel yourself by getting high with your boss either, now that's a crime on it's on hand, just because you have a medical condition doesn't mean to do it at work. I have been to the car lot and "yes" smelled it on the workers there and that right there my friend made me not by a car from them in the first place, ontop of that the interest rates are extremly high, if they go to the so called auction and buy these cars, why didn't you just take your wife there or better yet since you worked for them why didn't you just buy a car from the auction for your wife. If your going to put someone down because of whatever reason, don't down play them because of how they run their place of business or how they get there money, it's odvisiouly working because they are everywhere and everyone continues to go to them, you don't have to buya car from them, Paul Blonco doesn't put a gun to your head and say "buy my cars or I will shot you", No I don't think so. Long story short, my co-worker went there and bought a car and yes something was wrong with it, but she called them and took the car back to them, they fixed it right away. Remember before you buy a car off any used lot there is always a chance of a risk of something happening, do your research people before you commit to anything, I personally would never buy a car from E Z credit not because of that reason but because the interest rates are TOO HIGH. Oh and FYI your little article made me think that you were fired so now you want to down play because your mad, just a little foot note: Hate the game not the player...
