November 2011- Another King O’Rourke COMPLETELY SATISFIED customer testimonial
We received another wonderful comment from one of our customers:  “Bill Reale has made the difference on my purchases at King O’Rourke. Bill doesn’t approach you as a salesman but as a friend. Never did he push us into making our decision. Always comfort us with reality, a true gentleman. We had great conversations about Long Island, families, the economy and always ended with "take your time". We purchased our Denali in 2010 & now our 2011 Sierra. He has called & asked if everything was going ok and if he could be of any assistance. What was remarkable was how after a year we walked into the show room and he addressed us by name. As for my GM purchases we love both vehicles, the flex fuel was a big seller & on star is great. GM has come back home. Also a special thanks to Tom Lawlor who made sure all necessary paper work was in order for a smooth hassle free
transaction.” – Mr. Salgado
