So it's been about a year since I purchased my 2009 Crown Victoria from Ron Tate Auto. I flew from Central Texas and was picked up right on schedule by Ron himself. After arriving at his lot, I test drove the car, and everything worked as it should. I then made the 500-mile, 8-hour drive back home and had absolutely ZERO problems.Fast forward to the present day, and the car has been driven daily and had numerous road trips without issue. The only thing I've had to replace so far was the mass airflow sensor, air filter, and fuel filter. All of which were expected (and inexpensive), given the cars' age and current mileage. I am beyond pleased and would like to thank Ron for the stress free purchase.

I purchased a 2009 Chevy Impala in April and she is a beaut. The car market was grim, and it seemed that every place within a 300 mile radius of me was selling the same awful models with high mileage for ridiculous prices. I lucked out with Ron s dealership being only 100 miles from where I lived, the car was perfect when I test drove it, and the low mileage was a huge plus. They were so easy to work with, especially considering the huge pain my trade in was (which was my fault). The candor was refreshing, and the professionalism is sterling. They have the kind of rating they do for a reason.

Oh I see why they have a 5 star rating. We traveled with my son from Central Texas to pick up his Crown Vic which was in absolutely great condition with low mileage for that year.First trip son's bank financing fell thru but Ron overly assured us his earnest money would hold the car till we could come back.Second trip, the transaction took about 30 min.But wait!! Then my wife found a Ford Escape she wanted with low mileage/price and very clean looking. They gave us a great, no haggle, trade in value for our old 2011 Ford Escape. Ron waited and worked patiently with us all that day and into the next day cuz our bank couldn't transfer the money correctly. Side note; state to state title transfer went off with no problem at all.Working with Ron and Jared is reminiscent of the way friendly and honest customer service used to be done which is why I am confident to recommend Ron Tate Auto Sales to anyone looking for a low cost worry free car deal.Let me add, upon my son's mention in reference to different types of features of the car Ron was quick to add several upgrade like silver wheel covers, he even replaced the flood light with a big smile.Good People, Good Deal and well worth the trip.

I have been knowing Ron since 2015 and he is the most honest most generous man I have ever met. I have bought 5+ vehicles from Ron. I can honestly say he is one honest dealer. Please please go buy a car from him he will treat you right. If I could I would go work for him because that s how much I like being around Ron. Thank you again Ron for my police interceptor you are truly the best and may God bless you! I will be seeing you soon!

I bought a Crown Vic here because I needed what I thought was just a cheap car to drive to work. What I got was a great car at a competitive price. These guys treated me very well and I will be back to get another. Thanks Ron!

I recently purchased a 2006 Lincoln Town Car Designer series from Ron Tate Auto Sales. What a wonderful experience. I live in Washington state and found the car on Autotrader. I had been looking for quite some time for a very specific model and this one got my attention and was what I was looking for. I was initially nervous about potentially buying a car, sight unseen, that was nearly 2000 miles away. I then read the online reviews for this business and was very impressed. Almost entirely 5 star reviews. After some back and forth communicating with them, I decided to go for it. Honestly, a real roll of the dice. I flew to Oklahoma and Ron's son picked me up at the airport in Tulsa. He drove me to he and his father's dealership in Bartlesville. The car was exactly as represented and Ron rode with me on a test drive. He is a gem. Not something you see much anymore. Absolutely wonderful people. I actually felt bad that I had to rush the purchasing process so I could get on the road. I drove the Lincoln back home to Washington state. 1858 miles to be exact and the car performed flawlessly. Thank you from the bottom of my heart gentlemen. What a great experience.

I bought a 2008 P71 Ford Crown Vick and Ron Tate is a good guy. Fair price and had an answer to all my questions. He had cleaned the vehicle pretty well too.

I recently bought a van from Ron and it was the best experience from start to finish. Ron and Dave were so helpful in our purchase. We drove our vehicle home to Michigan and it drove beautifully. I would highly recommend Ron Tate to anyone who wants a good experience with a car purchase. Ron is a true gentleman.

Let's begin by saying I don't like car salesmen. Well I didn't like car salesmen until I met Jarrod at Ron Tate Auto. I've never paid full price on the car for a car like (ever). Then they usually throw on all these fees on at other dealerships. Not here though!! I paid the sticker price it was a great deal. Jarrod was so nice and personable and just a plain good person. I felt after we left these are just good guys making an honest living here. We will drive the two hours and always be a customer. Thanks for the best car buying experience and you earned the 5 stars

Fantastic! Placed the deposit online to reserve it. The numerous positive reviews from Rons' previous customers gave me the confidence for such an online commitment. Ron and his son Dave met me at the airport to complete the transaction. 30 minutes later the paperwork and my inspection( I'm an ASE Master mechanic) was done and I was on my way home! The 300 mile road trip was perfect and the car performed flawlessly! This car is exceptionally nice and in great condition better than I hoped for. Ron and Dave are honest, no pressure, laid back good guys doing good things the way it should always be. Buy with confidence.I should add that my truck was recently stolen and I needed a replacement vehicle immediately, no time to do a lot of shopping, with limited financial resources and NO patience for car dealers... Ron is the oasis in the desert.Thank you Ron and Dave!

Ron and his men work hard to make an honest deal on solid and dependable vehicles. I'm grateful for how patient they were with me when my financing fell through. My folks drove me from Texas to pick up the car from Ron's Auto Sales and they were so impressed by the service they bought a car too! This was the best experience I have ever had buying a car.

We drove all the way from Valley Center, KS to buy a vehicle from Ron Tate Auto! We bought a lovely car at an extremely fair price. This dealership knows how to buy good vehicles and pass them on to its customers! It was well worth the drive, and we will look forward to doing business with them in the future. Majestic is adorable and a lot of fun to work with! Thank you so much for a wonderful purchase experience!

I recently purchased a 2010 P71 from them. One of the best experiences I've ever had buying a car. These are down to earth honest people. So far the car has been great and I really enjoy driving it. I would recommend Ron Tate auto sales to my friends and family. Good people.

We bought a very nice, very well maintained 98 Ford F150 for our son here. Mr. Tate was very nice and helpful, never pushy at all. Very reasonable prices and very easy to deal with. All his vehicles on lot looked very nice and clean. I would highly recommend this dealer and we hope we can deal with him again in a couple years when it is time to buy for our daughter. I was extremely impressed that when he quoted a price, that was it, no extra or hidden fees,period. That is the way to do business.

Amazing experience Ron Tate is very professional, understanding and above all else, honest. If you need a used car that is reliable and will last you a long time, buy a vehicle from Ron and his son in Bartlesville Oklahoma. Bar none, the best experience I've had at a used car dealership in the last 10 years!!

I have known Mr. Tate for many years as an honest and hard-working man from past employment. I just recently had the pleasure of purchasing a used car from them and after almost 7 years of being in vehicle sales myself I can honestly say it was one of the simplest purchases I have ever made. Would do business again in a heartbeat and recommend them highly to anybody looking for a simple purchase on a solid, used car. Thank you again!

We drove an hour to find the vehicle we have been searching for. We bought a 1996 and it is very clean, no rust and runs great. Very friendly and accommodating. I didn't have any help getting back to Bartlesville to pick up the vehicle so they offered to bring it to me! We need more people and businesses in our area like them. Highly recommended.

Ron Tate is super nice and honest to work with. We have gotten our last 2 cars from him and would recommend him to anyone needing a car.

The Crown Vic I bought 4 years ago is still going strong. If you straight up ask him which is the best car he has, the owner will tell you. He won't BS around and try to sell you something you don't need. My wife will need a reliable vehicle soon. We'll be back!

I believe that Ron and Jarrod are special people. They are very honest and truthful. They answered all my questions and made sure I was perfectly happy with the truck I bought from them. I would not hesitate to recommend them. Great guys.

Be very careful spending your hard earned money here.. They will sell you a perfect used car that they will cover everything up until you get it home. Bought a van from Ron state auto sales that they sold me as great condition and freshly repainted Oct 28th 2022. I washed it for the first a week later with a hose (not power washer) and all the paint started to chip off. Took it to a local Bodyshop and they laughed at the poor quality prep job that Ron tate auto sales did on this van. Now I m upside down on a van after owning it for a week because it needs a $5k+ paint job. Reached out to Ron ate and told them about my problem and they simply did not care. Well let s fast forward a few days and now we have a major oil leak. Comes to find out it s the real main seal If I could leave a 0 star I would.
