Drivetime knew what they were doing. I needed a car to drive back and forth to school. I was going to a technical school to became an automotive tech. When I walked on the lot I saw the car I wanted a 2002 Chevy S-10. They were trying to get me into a little yellow ford f***usaka focus. I told them that I would not be caught dead in a ford. So they tried again to get me in a car I was not going to be caught dead in. I told them the only car I was leaving with was the Chevy S-10. They agreed to sell it to me. I told them I wanted to test drive it and look under the hood, look at the under carriage they agreed.

Well I get into the car, start it up and head off to take it for a test driveno gas. As soon as I drive off the lot the low gas light comes on. The guy tells me that they have been busy and have not been able to fill it up so I drive less than a mile. I ended up buy the car at two and half times its priceI needed a car! Well it is a great thing at I one-I have been working on cars for awhile. Two- that I was going to school to become a tech 3- that I could work on it while in school and get extra credit for it.

So what is wrong with the car well, something is highly wrong with the transmission. I noticed it after I drive it (for more than a mile) I called them and told them, they said to take it to one of their tech. I did, and he said he could not hear the loud slap that it was making when you let the clutch out. Next, we have the fact that the hydraulic control unit for the brakes is bad. Another words if you hit the brakes and you are driving on a bumpy road and need to stopyou're not going to.yeah!! all I have to say is thank god the I can fix these things. My next gripe is with the fact they charge $7.50 to make a payment on line. They shut down the drivetime I usually make my payments at. I called to complain, no one cared. I wrote a letters again no one cared. The people at drivetime suck for ripping others off. Please don't go to drivetime to buy a car.
