Auto Locators of Texas

Just bought a car through them and I can’t say enough good things about this dealership. The prices are very fair (better than buying from a private seller, even) and I was given all the info I asked for right away and handed the keys to go out for a test drive by myself. There was zero pressure (thank you Mike!) and he handled everything very quickly. I’ll be sending referrals their way for sure.

A wonderful car buying experience. Both cars I’ve purchased over the past decade have been with Richard Walsh and Auto Locators of Texas. Richard was able to find me exactly what I was looking for at a great price, this time a 2013 Acura TSX. And the whole process was very fast. Will certainly do it again for my next car.

I have nothing but praise for Richard Walsh and his staff. The whole experience with them has been positive. I love the 2012 Tahoe I bought 2.5 years ago. It was priced fairly and they found great low-​interest financing for me. Today they replaced a rear camera for me at no charge, even though the warranty had expired! They are also helping me replace a remote at low cost. Great service! They have a lot of great low mileage vehicles. I recommend Auto Locators to everyone. I will be back when it’s time to buy again.

When we moved from Texas to Illinois, we knew our car just wasn’t going to make it there, and we couldn’t afford to have it moved, so instead we had Auto Locators of Texas sell it for us. The process was fast, easy, and our car was sold much faster than we expected. Definitely thankful that they took care of that for us and saved us a lot of trouble.

We’ve bought four vehicles from ALT and, if I could help it, I would never buy another one from anywhere else. Richard and his excellent team make the entire buying process as smooth and pain-​free as the car buying process can be. They’re called «Auto Locators» for a reason — they will find you ANY car you want, with any combination of options you desire and you never have to leave to comfort of your home or office. Working with Richard is like having a personal automobile concierge. He will translate your needs into reality. All you have to do is tell him what you want and he takes care of the rest. If, by chance, the exact vehicle you want isn’t available in the marketplace, ALT will customize your vehicle to meet your exact specifications. You will find no one more knowledgeable about a wider range of vehicles and options than Richard and his team. You would think this extraordinary level of service would be expensive, but it’s exactly the opposite. ALT adds more value to the car buying experience than any car dealer of any kind that I’ve ever worked with. In fact, I’ve learned not to waste my time comparing prices with other dealerships. With the level of service and the quality of the vehicles at ALT, it’s impossible for anyone else to compete.

I bought an Xterra from Auto Locators right after they opened. It is still a great car and if I ever get tired of it I will buy another one from them. They really aren’t like the usual salesmen.

My boyfriend (now-​husband) purchased a car from Auto Locators of Texas several years ago and has always talked about the positive experience.
I recently had the opportunity to work with Auto Locators of TX this year to purchase a 2012 GMC Acadia SLT. We were blown away with the friendliness of the staff and the owner, Richard. The business feels extremely well-​run and organized. They are NOT pushy or «salesy» whatsoever. It feels like you are purchasing a car from a family member.
The most annoying part of buying a car (new or used) is dealing with the sales people… getting stuck in a salesperson’s office while the cheesy manager comes in and introduces themselves.
Auto Locators of TX is completely different. You can view their inventory online and come in to test-​drive a car if you wish. If you are looking for a specific vehicle, their specialty is locating cars, and they do this through the use of auctions. Richard will email you the cars that are available that week and will obtain the car you are looking for. We were able to test drive the car by ourselves. We noticed a small scratch in the leather, and they fixed it for us easily. Their prices are very affordable — less than a dealership & similar to buying from a private party direct (i.e. craigslist). Our car came with a CARFAX report as well.
The financing process was easy and when we showed up yesterday to sign the papers, everything was organized & ready to go. We bought the car in about 20 minutes. Richard personally took the time to show us the car’s cool features — like power liftgate, back-​up cam & navigation, etc.
One last thing that I should mention is that they can upgrade their cars w/​options like Navigation, Back-​up Cams, etc — they can also tint windows — again, their prices are less than a dealership.
I would absolutely recommend Auto Locators to friends or family. They are a pretty cool company, and I don’t see myself ever going to a dealership. Ever!
