Teneka in Charleston was the best. Even though I was purchasing a vehicle at DriveTime in Greenville she went above and beyond to help make the transition work.

Kwani and DriveTime for the Win

It was a great experience. Kwani was such a joy. She was kind and funny, and I really felt confident in her ability to get it done and get it done right. She was knowledgeable and comforting - I just felt like I was in good hands. The process wage on start to finish was the easiest car buying experience I’ve ever had. I went online initially and provided what was asked for and by the time I got there it was just a matter of test driving, paying the down payment, and signing - and I was on my way. I have a lot of confidence in DriveTime.

Blake Welch at DriveTime went above and beyond anything we expected from a car salesman. My dad is a 78-year-old Vietnam veteran, and Blake took the time to make sure all of his VA paperwork was fully updated and correct—something he absolutely did not have to do, but chose to because he genuinely cares.
He worked hard to make sure my dad and our family got a reliable vehicle with rate options he could truly afford, without pressure or stress. Blake is the definition of a great worker, but even more importantly, he’s an all-around good person.
You can tell he doesn’t just do his job—he makes a difference. He made the entire car-buying experience smoother, more enjoyable, and far less overwhelming. My dad definitely noticed, and so did our whole family. Blake truly knows his way around a car lot and treats people with respect.
If you’re looking for someone honest, knowledgeable, and who genuinely cares about helping people, ask for Blake Welch. He’s exactly the kind of person you hope to work with.

Excellent Customer Service Experience

Kwani made my experience so easy! She explained everything about the car and the process. She helped set up my phone to the car and showed me everything I needed to know about the operation of the car. I highly recommend DriveTime for anyone needing a car who might not have perfect credit. Thank you, Kwani and DriveTime!
