Kentson Car Company?

They seem to know what people are buying around here, higher end large SUV's and Minivans. I have never dealt with them, but they sound highly regarded based on their 12 years in business.
 
Every used car dealer I've visited in Bountiful has always seemed a little shady to me. They all buy from auctions (that's why the cars have high miles) and IMO, that's a big red flag. I know you can get some good deals buying from an auction, but those deals all go to the dealer if you're buying through them. If I were buying a used vehicle from a non-private party, I would only deal with a well-known dealership.

I have generally felt the same way, that is why I thought these guys were noteworthy. There are a few 2011's with 16,000 miles. Much of the auction stuff I've seen is beat and 30,000+ miles.
 
Don't know anything about the Bountiful dealer but my wife's Sienna was bought with about 30k miles and looked like it used to be a rental and it's been great. I haven't done anything but change the oil and put gas in it and it's almost 100k now.

Seems most of their vehicles are 2011 or 2012 models with under 20k miles.
 
L&S Auto Broker's in West Bountiful. Do you guys know anything about them?

They have a beautiful Sienna in silver...it needs to be white or dark gray. The price and mileage is right on but the color is wrong.

I would have NEVER thought finding the right van would take this long.

Our requirements are pretty basic; 2011-13, LE, V6, CLEAN, sub 25k miles...

Most of the inventory in the name brand dealerships come from auction.

Work with someone and have them do the searching from you.
 
I dealt personally with L&S Auto Brokerage and they were savvy to the whole auction process and they were the ONLY folks that kept me updated on vehicles that may fit our needs. We did not buy from them but wished we had been able to as I have zero issues recommending Trevor or Lora in helping you find a great vehicle at a reasonable price.

With that said, I sure am glad that the search is over!
