Just wanted to thank Eric and Mrs. Jenkins for being so easy to deal with and going beyond for me with my latest purchase. I have bought 3 trucks from them now and each time my experience was exceptional. I was treated very fairly and the vehicles I have gotten have been in great condition when I got them mechanically gone over, and any needed repairs made you can’t ask for anything more than that! From financing to delivery of my vehicle everything was easy and smooth, I would highly recommend anyone whose looking for a great vehicle and a good deal with honest friendly service to stop by here I think you’ll find what you are looking for!

Can't thank you all enough for the way we were treated today. It all went so smoothly and quickly. I like the car and will like driving it soon. Thank you again for your wonderful service. You are such nice people to work with and going the extra "mile" with local people.

I recently purchased a used 2001 Chevy S-10 from E&M Autos and the entire car buying experience was incredible. I first spoke with Eric who was awesome and very accommodating to my schedule. I called them on a Saturday and test drove that Monday afternoon. Eric and his team addressed and answered all of my questions and concerns and made sure the truck was perfect when I drove it off the lot.
At first, I struggled to find somewhere that would finance a 2001 car, but once I submitted a financing application on their website, it could not have been easier. I worked with Portia over the phone and on email, and through E&M's bank connections, they were able to find me an auto loan with the monthly payment I wanted and a rate that I was happy with. At the dealership, Portia helped me through all the paperwork and was very knowledgeable, kind and a wonder to work with.
I'd definitely recommend E&M. Their top priority was making sure I was satisfied and that I loved the truck I was getting. Never once did I feel like they were just trying to get a car off the lot.
Thank you guys very much!

Good morning Eric & Ms. Portia and Misty (even though I did not meet you)
I am not a person who usually leaves reviews, but when they are justified, be it positive or negative, I believe it's necessary to share so other people hear the actual events experienced. I just would like to take a moment and thank you both for a great purchasing experience of my 2004 Toyota Tacoma because I truly loathe buying vehicles. I have been searching for a Tacoma in a manual transmission for such a long time. They are literally extremely difficult to find, more like impossible, and the one EMAutos had in their lot---prestine for a 2004.
This may sound cliche, but from the first few steps walking into EMAutos, I, for some reason, felt at ease. I soon realized why.
Well, Ms. Portia, who is Eric's mother, is such a pleasure and a wonderful conversationalist. And, no it's not an act. It is genuine. The immediate greeting and a simple, friendly "hello" speaks volumes when you enter any room or facility. While I was contemplating my purchase, there was ZERO pressure from Eric to consummate the transaction. Eric knows very well what he is selling and the condition his vehicles are in. There is no RIFRAF.
I needed to figure out the financing and Eric gave me his word that he would hold the vehicle for two days and that meant a whole heap to me. Many people's words in today's world are not worth a cent. Thank you Eric for being real. I also want to say thanks to Eric's crew/mechanics: Ryan, Mike & Ray. I asked for some clarification on the truck and they explained much in detail. Eric was cool enough to say, "if you want, I'll put the truck on the rack so you can check under it." That was an element I was going to ask him to do, but he offered before I could ask.
Anyhow on the day of finalizing the paperwork, Ms. Portia took her time, explained all the required documents I needed to sign. It was a very simple process.
Anyone who is contemplating purchasing a vehicle, regardless where you are located in the United States, be assured, you are in good hands.
I would definitely purchase a vehicle from Eric Jenkins without hesitation again.
Thanks again EMAutos and happy selling and to prospective purchasers, Happy Buying,
Be well and Be safe!

Thank you so much for making my purchase so easy. I had been looking all over the area for a Toyota Camry for one of my children and found it at E & M Auto Sales. I dealt with many used car dealers, and Portia, you put me at ease. I felt good about doing business with you and am very happy with the vehicle I purchased. I've enjoyed driving it while waiting for my daughter to come pick it up!

My wife and I are both in our seventies (but of course look much younger). We have bought countless cars over the years and without any doubt every aspect of buying our latest car from E&M Auto Sales represented the best experience we have ever had, and it is not even close. Great people, great service, great conditional automobiles, great attitude, great expertise = outstanding value. Absolutely, recommended at the highest level.
Todd and Cathy: Batesville, Virginia
From my family and I, we would like to thank you all so very much for such an amazing experience at your family owned dealership! I must admit that I was a bit thrown of at first as to how down to earth Eric was when I first met him. Typically we are greeted by high pressure salesman at car dealerships, yet, what you will experience at E&M is the complete opposite. They always have a nice selection of trucks at affordable prices, even during times when it’s difficult to find them on the big dealers lots without getting raked over the coals. Again thank you and may God continue to bless you and your family!
C. McBride, Orange, Virginia
E & M Auto,
Thank you for assisting me with the purchase of the F350. I appreciate you all staying open as I came to look, and test drive the truck near closing time. Callie was a sweetheart and assisted me with the paperwork to purchase this truck days after I had looked at it.

I love my truck! The truck is better than advertised! It was worth the 8 hr drive. Thanks again Eric

Eric, Callie, and "Mom"-
Just wanted to thank you all for helping me purchase the Silverado. Eric, I was impressed with your high standards for selling vehicles. I do appreciate that you simplified things for me by trading for the Tacoma, which you said you would take to the auto auction. I certainly don't have your experience with how to best deal with a vehicle that doesn't meet my standard for a direct person to person sale. Thanks for that help! Callie, I'm really grateful and impressed with all the hoops you jumped through with the DMV to get the tags and title for me, and for being so pleasant on the phone. And, "mom," I appreciated talking to you while waiting on Eric, as well as the personal touch while signing paperwork. All together, I have to say that buying the truck from you was easily the most pleasant car-buying experience I've ever had.
Thank you all so much!
J. Boyer, Palmyra, Virginia
If you are looking for a 6.0 Powerstroke, this is the only place to look. Period. They sell only top quality, clean, rust free examples and then go further by fully ensuring all the common issues are fixed before selling their trucks. All of their trucks are fully reconditioned inside and out. No stains, odors, faded paint, oil leaks, nothing but perfect examples. Each 6.0 I drove had perfect EOT/ECT deltas, and drove flawlessly. The prices are more than fair for the quality of vehicle you get. The staff are incredibly friendly and sincerely care about each vehicle on their lot, as if it were their own personal truck. I looked for about 6 months before I found E & M. You cannot find this quality of truck anywhere else.
R. Greer, Edmond, Oklahoma
Eric worked with me by phone since I live 8 hours away in Augusta, GA. He answered all of my questions, took extra pictures and two videos of my 2002 F-250 4x4 7.3L Powerstroke (one cold start, one after warm-up). I had a friend in VA drive over and he was also impressed by Eric and This beautifully cared for low mileage RED Ford Truck!
As luck would have it my friend and Eric were coming back from the test drive...a new customer that had driven from Maryland without calling ahead also wanted the same Truck! All it took was for me to say 100% SOLD to Eric and my friend to seal the deal that we had talked over the phone extensively about the day before. Callie was very helpful with all the paperwork, and wire transfer instructions. I would HIGHLY recommend Eric and Callie at E & M Auto Sales to anyone! No matter how far away you live from VA, They will do what it takes to ensure you are satisfied with your next purchase!
S. Garner, Augusta, GEORGIA
Bought this nice truck from E&M Auto Sales. Very satisfied with the truck. Will deal with them again.
Joe, Culpeper, VIRGINIA
We bought a diesel truck from these folks and they were wonderful to deal with. Would recommend anyone to purchase a car or truck from their business. We really appreciated your knowledge, honesty and integrity throughout the deal and if there are any other vehicles in our future, we'll be looking here first!
Kris and Chris, Elkton, VIRGINIA
I had a really great experience purchasing a car at e&m autos. The mother and son team were really nice and they didn’t pressere us and didn’t rush us even when it was closing.
Thank you for making the purchase of the car so great.
D. Boehm, Orange, VIRGINIA
I just found a great truck from E&M Auto. Everyone was down to earth which made me very comfortable. I plan to do more business with them in the future.
L. Camp, Spotsylvania, VIRGINIA
Misty and Eric,
You guys are the best. After my car was declared totaled by my insurance company I felt pressured to find a new vehicle right away. I looked around a couple of days then a friend recommended you guys and that was it. I came in and found the perfect car, a 2012 Mazda2 Hatchback, for my needs right there on the lot. Took it for a test run, liked it and signed the deal that afternoon. And what a deal. Got a tremendous price and everything finalized right there. You all were great to work with and I'll recommend E&M Auto Sales to all I know. Thanks again!
D. Lewis, Rappahannock, VIRGINIA
Deal Paul,
We just wanted to say "Thank you" again for everything. Our daughter is so happy with her truck. You and the owners were "Awesome" to do business with.
Best!
John and Karen Slater, Sandy Spring, MARYLAND
Good morning,
I just wanted to say thank you to Paul for the wonderful service you gave me yesterday. I haven't been through the car buying process in six years but you made it easy. I appreciate your help and dedication to getting me the best rate possible!
My family and I are in love with the van already! I will definitely refer anyone I know looking to buy a car your way.
Thank you again,
Have a blessed day.
Jennifer Brown, King George, VIRGINIA
I was completely satisfied with my purchasing experience from the sales to the financing part of it. They were nothing but courteous and patient the entire time. They also found issues in my loan that saved me thousands on the vehicle I wanted. I have had a few issues with the truck that sprung up and they have been most wiling to fix them, living up to their warranty, unlike the dealer with my previous truck. I have nothing but respect for this dealership and would highly recommend them to friends and family.
Sincerely,
Kevin L. King George, VIRGINIA
My husband purchased a Ford F150 over the weekend. The vehicle was priced very reasonably, and it fit our needs perfectly. The staff was very friendly, professional, and pleasant to work with. We traveled over three hours and we will be making that trip every time we are in the market for another vehicle from now on. We will be encouraging friends and family to do the same. Very impressed and appreciative! Thanks guys!
Best,
Sarah McCrickard, Callands, VIRGINIA
Paul Carroll was the person who we emailed, spoke to on the phone and eventually worked with. Today I went home with an amazing vehicle. After test driving other vehicles with different establishment's and being disapointed, we were delighted to work with E&M.
Thank you for the outstanding service we received today!
Michelle Williams-Jennings, Spotsylvania, VIRGINIA
I have bought lots of vehicles and this was the best experience I have ever had hands down. Eric, Paul and Misty provide small business service that can’t be matched. They provide top notch products at fair prices without the pressure and nagging of bigger dealerships. I will continue to purchase from E&M for years to come.
Michael Tusing, Orange, VIRGINIA
Misty, Eric and Paul,
It was a pleasure dealing with you! I have purchased many vehicles over the last few years and this was by far the best car purchase experience I've had. And thank you for holding the truck for me while I drove from Cary NC to pick it up! It was well worth the 4 hour drive!
T. Bailey, Cary, NORTH CAROLINA
Good morning Eric! Thank you again! We have owned and purchased many vehicles with transferring around in the Coast Guard for 21 years. Working with you and Misty was by far the best experience we've had buying a vehicle. Your trucks, while used are in excellent shape and reflect your pride in your work. It was a pleasure working with you, and meeting your really nice family. God has blessed you in many ways, and you pass that on through the way you interact with your customers. We look forward to many years of enjoyment with our awesome F-350, and will definitely buy from you again in the future, and highly recommend you to our friends and family.
Thanks again, and Merry Christmas!
Tom, Ellen, and Family, Disputanta, VIRGINIA
Eric & Misty,
This truck is better than advertised. Sure am glad I made the choice to buy sight unseen. Hope all are well and God Bless.
Richard H, Carlisle, PENNSYLVANIA
Eric & Misty,
I want to thank you both for working with me on the purchase of my truck. I’ve purchased a ton of vehicles over the last 25 years and by far your knowledge of the different trucks and the little details of each is second to none. I’ve told everyone in my circle about the customer service I received and I can assure you this, when its time for another vehicle no matter the make I will be coming back in.
Both Misty and Eric were honest and willing to answer my endless questions throughout the purchase process and I really appreciate the tour of the facility to see just what goes into ensuring that every vehicle is in perfect working condition prior to going on the lot. I’d say that many of the other local lots should stop in and take notes on how these two are creating customers for life. I have and will continue to provide positive feedback on my experience at E and M.
Thanks Again,
T. Fontenot, Fredericksburg, VIRGINIA
Eric & Misty,
I'm sorry for the delay but hands down, your customer service is a perfect 100%! I can't thank the both of y'all enough for having an opportunity to buy from E&M. I can't tell you how many complements I've gotten on my truck. Most of the time you pull up into a dealership, there's always that one sales person to run up on you and make you feel pressured. E&M is the total opposite and that's one of the things I won't forget about them. Both Eric and Misty were very honest and straight forward throughout the whole process. The truck looked better in person than online. That there shows you they take pride in making their inventory look good for their customers. I can promise I will be back in the near future to buy another truck. I recommend anyone who is looking for a truck to check E&M Auto Sales out! Even if you're hours away like myself and many others were. Eric and Misty I would be honored to spread the word of good business to others down my way.
Thanks again,
T. Colligan Prince George, VIRGINIA
I found E&M auto sales online and when I searched through their trucks they had really affordable prices and they didn't seem like they were trying to hide any information. Then I read their testimonials and saw all of the great things that people had to say. When I arrived there was no pressure to take a test drive or buy a truck it was all really relaxed and Eric and Misty are both really great people that can give you all of the info about the trucks. It was truly a pleasure doing business with them and knowing i was getting a truck that was going to last. All of the trucks on their lot are just like the pictures show and there is no hiding of any information like i have seen at other used car dealerships. I would definitely purchase a second truck from them no questions asked because i know they are trustworthy. You have to see for yourself!! I can guarantee that they won't disappoint you and you will find the truck that you're looking for. I feel like more dealerships used and new should make you feel as relaxed and sure about your purchase as Eric and Misty do. I thank you both for providing me with a truck that I can depend on for years to come.
T. Werking, Montgomery Village, MARYLAND
Eric and Misty at E&M Autos,
I don't know how to explain the customer service with a word good enough to describe how happy I am with them. I recently moved to Virginia from Florida, working a job that requires long days and about 2 hours from their dealership. To make matters even more tough, no cell phones allowed in the building where I work. They were always there to answer the phone when I called on break time, had an answer for all my questions and after about 4 days or what seemed like weeks of phone calls and not even meeting face to face, we finally were able to be happy with a deal we had been discussing with a lender on a truck that is ABSOLOUTELY SPOTLESS. The engine bay, under carriage, interior, lift, wheels and tires, everything about this truck is clean. My hours at work required me to be at work later than they were open, 6 days a week. Once everyone was happy with the discussed deal, they were more than happy to stay late on a saturday evening and still provided excellent service and didn't seem like they wanted to leave or were bothered! I would highly reccomend them to anybody. All their vehicles on the lot are very clean and all in great shape. Not one time did I feel like I was bothering them or like an inconvenience in ANY way. I WILL be purchasing another vehicle through them in the future!!!
Eric and Misty, thank you!
C. Hanson, Mineral, VIRGINIA
I would highly recommend E & M Auto Sales to anyone who is searching for a diesel truck or any other automobile. Eric & Misty are awesome honest folks! They both go above and beyond to provide outstanding customer service and are a lot of fun. Having seen a truck I liked on their website, I called Eric on his cell after normal business hours to discuss. The following day I again called Eric, around 9pm to ask more detailed questions. Not only did Eric address all my concerns he started asking his own questions as to why I liked this specific truck and what I was looking for in a truck. As it turned out this was the most important conversation we shared, he suggested I check out a different truck on the site one he felt would be a better choice for me. Another 9:30 pm call to Eric to talk about the F350, after the discussion I realized he was right the truck was clearly better suited for me. The next day after some hours of deliberation, I called Misty and agreed to purchase the truck, sight unseen relying on Eric’s word and the excellent photos on their site. I then spoke with Eric and he told me not to worry, if this was an impulse purchase and I changed my mind later he would understand, just to let him know. That is something you don’t hear every day! In person the truck was exactly as described on the E & M site and it became clear to me why Eric made the suggestion on this truck, as it totally was the right choice for me – thank you Eric!
My 2007 Ford F350 is housed in its own garage, maintaining the incredible condition of this remarkable truck!
Thanks again,
Edward Cullen Davidsonville, MARYLAND
Cruize & Chloe - a fond hello!
Hi Misty & Eric!
Sorry for the delay in my response, we have been so busy since we got home that we almost forgot to email you guys. We hope that all is well with you and with the puppies!!! :) They were the cutest!
We just wanted you to know that we had such a pleasure dealing with you on the sale of our truck. We have never purchased a vehicle from the US before and it was a bit scary but you guys made it such a smooth and easy process. The many detailed pictures that you sent us before we purchased were excellent, without those we would have never travelled so far to purchase a truck The endless phone calls from us asking questions had to be a pain but you guys were always there to answer anything at all. We knew exactly what we were getting without ever seeing the truck. It is EXACTLY as you told us. Actually, the truck was even better when we finally saw it in real life! We drove all the way from your dealership in Virginia to St. John's Newfoundland Canada (Over 1000 Miles) without any issues at all. We thank you for all your help with the paperwork to get the truck into Canada without incident.
We were asked many times where we purchased the truck, and gladly told everyone where we got it what a pleasant experience we had dealing with you guys. We will definitely be back in a few years to purchase another one. Hopefully sooner if all goes well. ;)
And give us a call if you ever visit the East Coast of Canada!
Thanks so much!
Mike & Shannon St. Johns, Newfoundland CANADA
Paul and Eric are top notch. They are great folks that take all the hassle out of purchasing a vehicle. Thanks guys for a great truck and excellent experience!
Andy Stone, Fredericksburg, VIRGINIA
What a great used truck lot! We got lost looking for it, but Paul Carroll led us right to it and he helped us pick out the right truck! Great customer service and very nice salesman! We highly recommend!
Joan Lane, Glen Allen, VIRGINIA
This is my second truck I've purchased from E&M. The first truck I purchased from E&M was 6 years ago and I loved it and I never had a single problem with it. I did a lot of research for my second truck and I had a set price in my budget. Other dealers I searched, I couldn't get anything newer than a 2011 with 100k miles. Then I found a highly optioned 2013 with less than 100K at E&M, and it was priced below my budget. And on top of that, they put a leveling kit on it and it came with an awesome set of aftermarket wheels. I love my new truck and I will keep going to E&M. If you're looking for a clean low mile diesel, go to E&M.
Anthony L. Culpeper, VIRGINIA
My name is Jason Purks and I just purchased a 2006 F-350 from E&M Auto. The prices are very fair and the guys are great to work with. They went out of their way to get the deal done. I highly recommend them for all of your truck needs. Thanks again guys !!!
Jason Purks, Fredericksburg, VIRGINIA
Old School Hospitality....Found these guys online shopping for a used truck...awesome folks! Eric and Paul are down home boys who make you feel as though you just showed up for the BBQ...I kept looking for the grill and beer! Can't say enough good things about my buying experience, they went above and beyond to get my truck done and done right! Sold me a beautiful Chevy...put a 6" lift and wheels and sent me on my way! Give these boys a call and you can see for yourself! If they had more than 5 stars I would give it!!
Thanks guys...
Dennis B., Staunton, VIRGINIA
I just wanted to take some time and extend my appreciation for all the help that Paul and Eric provided. After selling my 2013 Sierra I was in the market for a replacement - hoping for something older. I found this truck online and by looks alone was interested. After seeing it in person and taking a test drive with Paul, I was sold. Being that they are a smaller outfit they seem to be very selective with their inventory, and they have that rural feel to their service - personable and patient; willing to answer all questions asked. After purchasing, I had the truck checked out by my local mechanic who is notorious for being a bit of stickler when it comes to state inspections. He found a couple matters of concern so I called up Eric and explained the situation. He did not get defensive or argue with me...quite the opposite actually. He told me that "I sold you a truck with confidence, and I want you to feel the same. Bring it to me and I'll have it checked over. If there is anything wrong with it, I'll take care of it. (Nothing ended up being wrong with the truck)
David G., Marshall, VIRGINIA
I just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful experience in dealing with your company. Sometimes you never know what you are going to get when you buy something sight unseen. However, your item description was spot on and your verbal follow up confirmed to me exactly what to expect.
The experience was further enhanced by picking me up at the airport in Richmond. We signed the paperwork at a nearby gas station and I began my drive home to Atlanta. I typically hate long drives, but I have to say that I enjoyed driving my new truck home!
Thanks again and I hope to buy more vehicles from you in the future!
David C. Villa Rica, GEORGIA
Eric & Misty,
Thank you both again. This was the easiest and by far the best car buying experience my wife and I have ever had. Not only will we recommend your dealership to others but hope to see you again when its time for another truck.
You have a great selection of vehicles all of which are very reasonable in price, I wish you both great success.
Thank you both again,
Sean R. Ruckersville, VIRGINIA
Misty & Eric,
I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know that after my 5 hour drive, I made it home safely at 3 pm Saturday afternoon. The truck did great and I had a good trip. Thanks again for your help.
My purchase from E&M Auto Sales was completely over the web, I found my Toyota Tacoma via their listing on Autotrader.com. We were able to do the entire purchase online and I was met by Misty with my truck at the Amtrak depot in Fredsricksburg after taking a train to Virgina. A half hour later I was on my way home back to NC with my new truck, it was just that simple. I have been completely satisfied with my purchase from E&M and had received nothing but compliments on how clean and the overall condition of my truck. Thanks again to E&M Auto Sales for making it happen!
Charles Holden Whiteville, NORTH CAROLINA
We had a wonderful experience buying from Eric and Misty! Was very pleased with the customer service. There was no pressure when we pulled in to look at the trucks. Eric and Misty answered any questions we had. The whole transaction went very smooth. We got a Great truck at a very decent price. I have recommended E&M Auto to several people. If you want great service and a reliable used vehicle, then this is the place to go.
Thanks Again Eric and Misty!
Jeff and KJ, Orange, VIRGINIA
Thank you Eric & Misty for making our buying experience such a pleasant one. Love the 4-Runner! We will definitely tell our friends what a great place it is to buy a vehicle!
James & Lisa R. Elkwood, VIRGINIA
Eric & Misty
We just want to thank you again for the great experience we had buying our 2006 Chevrolet Silverado. E & M Auto Sales is like no other dealership they make you feel very welcome and no pressure! Eric will go that extra mile to make things right! And Misty makes the paper work a breeze! So before you go else where to look for a truck let E & M Auto Sales be your first stop they have a variety of trucks! Also stop in and say hello to Cruize & Chloe they are Eric & Misty's English Bulldogs. They add a little touch to E & M Auto Sales ! My husband loves his truck!
Thanks Again,
Steve & Vanessa C. Stuarts Draft, VIRGINIA
