Had a GREAT Sales Experience with Patrick Richmond.. Patrick is knowledgeable on the different cars on the lot and was just very good to work with
Mike Darden greeted us with a warm welcoming smile at the door and then directed us to Patrick Richmond who was extremely nice and comfortable and pleasant to work with. No pressure whatsoever. Calming comfortable atmosphere. Angie and Billy cleaned and detailed my car very nicely. Warm welcoming no pressure environment. Listened to what i wanted in a car. They worked with me even though I had poor credit and only a $500 trade in.
Absolutely could not be more happy with my experience at Rusty Wallace Honda thanks to Mr. Landon “Hollywood” Foster. He went above and beyond to get the exact car I wanted. He was definitely the nicest salesman I have ever met or worked with. THANK YOU SO MUCH HOLLYWOOD!!!
If you are in the market for a new car, ask for Patrick. I will never go anywhere else to buy another car. I have bought 2 from him and have recommended others to him as well who had nothing but amazing things to say about him. He is honest with you and doesn't harass you over a sale like many car sales people do.
PLEASED. Rusty Wallace treated us well. Landon Foster went Above and Beyond to get my daughter and grandson what they wanted. Landon is definitely 10/10 in our book. The finance officer worked out everything to benefit my daughter in benefits and financially. As her mother, I couldnt be more pleased with a group of people!

The entire process was surprisingly pain-free, which is not something you always expect when buying a car!

Had a wonderful experience buying our 2026 Honda Prude from Patrick Richmond. He was so personable and did not use any high pressure sales tactics. The entire staff was amazing from beginning to end. Jennifer in financing was also a joy to work with.
Rusty Wallace Honda and the many people who work here provide truly remarkable service that is both streamlined and easy for those who bought their first car, like me, or just don’t enjoy the monotonous paperwork. The sales team that I worked with from the first follow up call till I was handed my keys were wonderful, especially Mr. Alex. I was impressed with his thorough explanations and constant communication during and after the process. The car I chose, a 2026 Honda Civic Sport Hatchback, was not only detailed and prepared for me, but Mr. Alex helped me understand the ... Read More

I had an outstanding experience at Rusty Wallace Honda, and I want to especially recognize Jalen for the exceptional customer service he provided.
Buying a car can be stressful, and I came in with a lot of emotions, especially because I was letting go of my previous vehicle and the memories attached to it. Jalen was incredibly patient, kind, and down-to-earth throughout the entire process. He never made me feel rushed or pressured, and when I changed my mind about which vehicle I wanted, he quickly adjusted and made the transition seamless.
What stood out most was how genuinely supportive ... Read More

My husband and I went to look at the 2026 Passport. Jaylen greeted us and we explained we were just looking and weren't planning to buy for a few months. He let us look without hovering but was available for any questions we had. We left with his card and after talking about it decided we were ready to buy a week later. The Passport we had been interested in was already sold. I spoke with Jaylen and he went to work finding the car we wanted. Within a week he had the vehicle on the lot. The whole process ...

Landon Foster made the buying experience very good. He wasn't pushy and had a great attitude. After many negative buying experiences at other places, it was refreshing to be able to enjoy buying a car.
Probably the most professional, dedicated and knowledgeable service advisors I've ever dealt with. Andy Sellers is superior. I wouldn't trust my vehicle with anyone else.
Our car shopping experience with Patrick Richmond at Rusty Wallace was excellent. Patrick was super professional, knowledgeable, and very attentive helping us through the process of comparing two different models as well as the paperwork. We went in there expecting to replace our 8 yr old CRV with another, but decided on the HRV instead for various reasons including slightly smaller, and a little lower to the ground. We are happy with the service and the time Patrick spent with us - thank you!
I had an amazing experience working with John G. He was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping me find the right vehicle instead of making me feel pressured. John answered all of my questions, kept me informed throughout the entire process, and made buying a car stress-free and enjoyable. His honesty, patience, and excellent customer service really stood out. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes above and beyond for their customers, I highly recommend asking for John. Thank you for making this such a great experience!
Daniel was great. He really listened to me and helped me get the car and price I wanted.
Recently purchased a new 2026 Honda Passport! I absolutely love it!!! John “G” is awesome! He helped me find my dream car! I couldn’t be happier. The service was fantastic. John helped me set everything up and made my car buying experience seamless. It truly felt like he went above and beyond. 10/10 would recommend go see John “G”!!!
Daniel helps us! He made our experience super enjoyable and easy!! Great service
Patrick Richmond sold us a CRV and he did an excellent job! We appreciate everything he did for us! Thanks so much!!
I had a great experience with Rusty Wallace Honda buying my new CRV hybrid. Patrick Marte was very helpful, low pressure, and helped us synch car play to our phones. He patiently explained all the features and helped us get a Veterans rebate. I highly recommend him!
Patrick Richmond was fantastic! He listened to my concerns and addressed them directly. He called and texted immediately to answer questions. He was very personable.
Always super helpful and kind, even with the little things that would normally go unnoticed.
I would give the service department 10 stars if I could. They went above and beyond to help us get back on the road after having car trouble while passing through town. Not only are they knowledgeable, but kind and compassionate as well. Will definitely be buying my next Honda here!
Called multiple times for a service price and low and behold 3 days later I receive a text that all business with customers is done by text. I was under the impression that text was faster than phone calls. If it took 3 days to send a text,I wouldn't want to be at the service department waiting for my car until I got a text that my car was ready. No voice contact make for many problems. I'll go somewhere else
Thank you so much landon and brandon for all the help!! Everyone is so nice and very knowledgeable. 10/10
We had an amazing experience purchasing our new Lexus NX 350 Premium, and we can’t recommend Daniel enough! From the moment we walked in, he was incredibly patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He took the time to answer all of our questions, never made us feel pressured, and made sure we were comfortable and confident throughout the entire process.
Buying a car can be stressful, but Daniel made it such an easy and enjoyable experience. His professionalism and genuine care for his customers really stood out. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond, ask for Daniel—... Read More

Great service! Anson was very helpful and made the whole process very smooth.
It was a great experience

Patrick Richmond & Patrick Marte
My husband and I had a wonderful experience purchasing a new Honda Civic with Rusty Wallace Honda. Patrick Richmond was our salesman and he was amazing to work with, as was the manager and the finance department. Patrick answered all of our questions throughout the process. The most important thing to me is that we never felt pressured, and we left having made a deal that we were both very pleased with!
Patrick Richmond was wonderful and wasn’t talk to. Super helpful!
The level of courtesy and professionalism is very high. Communication lines were by clear & repair explanations very thorough. But what sends the Service Manager, Todd Palmer over the top is his level of care for the safety of our daughter and ensuring her vehicle remains up to par. To have him as a contact for future needs is reassuring and very much appreciated. He and Wendy Thomas kept us informed and up to date throughout the repair process and ensured a timely delivery of the car after repairs were made. Our family really appreciates Todd and Rusty Wallace Dealership. ... Read More

Patrick Richmond was great, no pressure salesman and took his time helping me find the car that met my needs
Great car buying experience. Landon made the whole process incredibly easy and I left feeling like I got very good deal on a great car!
I had a great experience working with Michael McGinnis. Even after I purchased my Toyota 4Runner, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. He helped me get my taillight and TPMS issue fixed quickly and made the entire process easy. If you’re looking for someone who’s honest, helpful, and provides excellent customer service, I highly recommend asking for Michael!
Walked into Rusty Wallace Honda to buy one car. Thanks to Taylor Griffin, we drove home with two. He made the deal so good it was impossible to say no. Super honest, friendly, and knows how to take care of customers. Best salesman experience we’ve ever had — just make sure your garage is ready! 😂
I went into the dealership anxious about the whole car buying experience. As a first time buyer, I didn’t know what to expect. Luckily, I was paired with Jim, aka, Bright Britches. He made the experience unlike anything I have ever seen. Not only was Jim super insightful, he was also friendly and honest. He actually sold me my first car! I will 100% be back and will be referring him to people I know. Thank you so so much!
Mike McGinnis was terrific! It was a pleasure dealing with him. He shoots it straight and is a very genuine soul. We had fun with him and did great business. Everyone was great…Manager Mike and Finance Greg. This was a great day!
Rusty Wallace exceeded my expectations. Incredibly genuine and customer focused with a low pressure approach to sales. Wide range of cars and friendly people!
We are from xx. Louis and were on our way home from visiting my wife's family in Virginia. We drove to Sevierville on Thursday night. The next morning my father-in-law called to tell us there was fluid on the ground where we had parked during our visit. I found Rusty Wallace Honda on maps. We were treated so well by everyone we dealt with during our time there. They got us in quickly and we knew we would have to pay for a diagnostic...but there was no problem with our coolant and there was NO charge. Randy Owens, ... Read More

Landon made the car buying process as smooth as possible - dealt in transparency and honesty throughout! Highly recommend to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle.
The entire transaction was so easy and convenient and I was educated on things I didn't know. Landon Foster found me the one and only car I would settle for and helped me work with insurance. He's so charismatic and kind and patient lol. I would absolutely give them my business again!!
We had an amazing experience working with Landon! He was incredibly informative, patient, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. Even though the car we originally came in for was no longer available, he went above and beyond to help us find another vehicle that ended up being a perfect fit. He made what could’ve been a stressful situation feel easy and enjoyable. We never felt pressured, and he took the time to answer all of our questions and make sure we were comfortable with our decision. Highly recommend working with him if you’re looking for someone honest, ... Read More

I appreciated how well communication was and that Landon was willing to have numbers ready for me before I drove 50 minutes to the dealership. I would highly recommend going here.
Alex and the other folks at Rusty Wallace Honda (Brad and Jake) were incredible. I came in at 7pm on a thursday evening and they stayed with me until 10pm to make sure i was taken care of. No pressure, good negotiations, and a good deal on my dream truck. You could tell Alex truly cared about making sure I was comfortable with everything because I admitted it was my first time buying a car. He was exceptional and so was Brad, who really took the time to make sure I understood everything on the finance side. Thanks guys!
Great to deal with and helped us with every detail with our purchase of our Truck
I was originally interested in a car that was not at their physical location. I was reluctant to swap to a completely different model when the sales manager asked if I would change models. I declined. So I swapped to a different Accord. No big deal. I took delivery of the used dealer car and it was missing a second key and the owners manuals. Paige found them and gave them to me a week later. The car did not have any gas in it when I took delivery. I had to fill it up when I left the lot. ... Read More

I had the pleasure of meeting Alex Sutherland in sales regarding the purchase of a 2026 CR-V Touring Hybrid Sport. Alex introduced me to Mike (Used Car Manager) and Brad (Finance) I had a trade and Mike gave me exactly what I was expecting for my vehicle which was a fair offer. Alex was exceptionally professional, respectful, and above all kind. No pressure whatsoever in the purchase of my CR-V either from Alex or Mike. The buying process was easy and smooth. I highly recommend Rusty Wallace for a New or Used vehicle purchase.
Alex at Rusty Wallace made this my best car buying experience I’ve ever had, I highly recommend Rusty Wallace to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle.
Good people, no pressure and great customer service. The service department is another reason I buy from RWH.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If buying a car was always like this, people wouldn’t hate it so much.
Shoutout to Alex Sutherland at Rusty Wallace Honda for making buying a car feel less like a hostage negotiation and more like hanging out with competent adults who actually know what they’re doing.
Alex was patient, honest, and somehow answered all my questions without doing that weird sales voice. No pressure, no nonsense, no “let me talk to my manager” marathon. Just straight-up good vibes and solid communication from start to finish.
And the whole crew at Rusty Wallace Honda? Absolute pros. Friendly, efficient, ... Read More

I just purchased a 2026 Honda CRV EX-L from Rusty Wallace Honda off Callahan, and had a fantastic experience working with Jacob O’Connell. Jacob was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive to my questions and needs without being pushy. He even stayed late to ensure I was comfortable with all the new tech features before I drove off the lot. If you want an stress-free car buying experience, I highly recommend asking for Jacob!
I have been going to Rusty Wallace Honda for all my vehicles. They are amazing people and make you feel like you are at home while you are there. Alex Sutherland is my go to salesman every time I go there.
Excellent experience. Scott Shackleford was our salesman and really was great in helping us with our trade in for a new Honda Passport Elite. And we checked other dealership and got the best deal there. Everyone was super nice. looking forward to enjoying my new car.
Fastest service I’ve ever experience buying a new car. Great customer service and made the process so easy.
Vasile was very knowledgeable and friendly with no pressure tactics. A very pleasant car buying experience.

I was in a tight spot having had an accident right at the start of the holiday season and not expecting to have to buy a car for Christmas. I found a great deal at Rusty Wallace Honda and Jake was so kind and patient to work with me. He was never pushy and allowed me the time I needed to check out all my options without pressure to make a decision. That was not my experience at other dealerships. I hope I’m not in the market again anytime soon; but when I am, my first call will be ... Read More

Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. Sales person was extremely thoughtful and pleasant. Would recommend your business to someone looking for a car.
Great experience purchasing my new Honda Pilot from Rusty Wallace Honda. Paige Nance was excellent to work with. I have bought many cars from different dealerships in the past 30 years. I would recommend Rusty Wallace Honda to anyone. Very professional and they just do things the right way!
Very clean, nice and friendly staff, that goes the extra mile to make sure you feel comfortable and work with you to find a car that fits your budget.
Chad and Jacob were phenomenal They were informative and it felt like family I would absolutely tell anyone I know to shop at this dealership Thank you so much for everything
Jacob was very helpful and patient with me. I had a lot of questions and was really scared of making such a big purchase. He made me feel very comfortable and I didn’t feel like I was being pressured into buying anything. I would definitely recommend him for anyone looking to buy a new car.
Patrick was great to do business with. He was professional and listened to what I was looking for.
