Frank is the man! I love this wise man. After stopping by to say hello for the past 6 years, I finally purchased a car from him. He treated me well, we had good conversation and even watched the football game for a while. Car dealers have a horrible reputation but Frank clearly is a man of integrity. I highly recommend you check him out! Tell him Wesley sent you :-)

If you plan on buying a used car, the first place to check out is Wholesales Motors. Below are the reasons.
1-No used or new car dealership has a lower overhead than Wholesales Motors. It has one employee, Frank Bent, who owns the dealership as well.
Unlike other dealerships which try to mimic five star hotels in appearance, Wholesales Motors has an office which can accommodate one customer at a time.
2-Frank Bent is the sales consultant, assistant sales manager, vice president, president, and owner of Wholesales Motors. So when you are negotiating the price of the car, you will never hear, "I need to speak to the manager." Frank does it all, from selling the car to the paperwork.
3-Wholesales Motors offers a discount on cars bought for cash.
4-Frank is very easy to talk to and is honest, more so than Abe Lincoln. You will never hear Frank say, "You look like nice folks so I will give you the manager's discount" "OR " "what will it take for you to buy this car?"
You will have a very pleasant experience at Wholesales Motors whether you buy your car there or not. Try it, you'll like it."Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 10801529433Jul 1, 2013First to Review
Frank Bent's Wholesale Motors was recommended to me by a workout buddy that I see in the gym every morning. Speaking to him, I gradually realized that many of the other people in the locker room had received analogous recommendations. These recommendations have apparently led to quite a few sales, and the whole locker room seems to be 100% happy with their vehicles.
Meeting Frank, I found an upfront guy who buys and sells only cars that he likes and who is perfectly happy to talk without hype about the vehicles that he's selling. It's hard to imagine that his prices are literally "wholesale," but they certainly seem fair to me.
I doubt that I will buy a car here because I like to drive manual transmissions and because I have a growing interest in electric cars (which don't have manual transmissions!). Nevertheless, I am happy to have found this address and will share the recommendation with my friends.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - TERENCE B.Berkeley, CA301Feb 2, 2018

I bought my very 1st Car from Frank almost 20years ago.. I was a single mom with a 5year old son. I was nervous, excited but also unsure what I was doing, But Frank made the ENTIRE Process from start to finish a very Calm, Easy, Wonderful Experience for a first timer..He was honest and caring and never pushed or came across like a "Salesman" The Car I bought that day lasted me for almost 10years!!! Very Good Reliable Car!! When I needed another Car, I came back to Frank and he was exactly the same.. I just Love him I bought ANOTHER very Good Reliable Car That again lasted me well over 11years!! Fast forward to last weekend Saturday 7/14/18 Went RIGHT BACK TO FRANK!!! To Buy My 3rd CAR From Him. I would never go to another a Dealership for as long as Frank is in Business!! He will forever have my business and my families business.. Thank you for breaking the stereotype of "The Car Salesman" YOU are the REAL DEAL!!

I had no idea buying a used car could be so stress free. I felt confident I was being treated fairly and would recommend Frank to all my friends and family. He is honest and kind. And I love my new car!!!!

This is my family's 6th car we bought from Frank. My son bought a car from Frank and so has my daughter. I have been pleased with each of our purchases. The price is more than fair and any time we were worried about something Frank would work a deal. I never felt pressured to purchase. I highly recommend Frank. I always tell my friends where I get my cars.
With my third car, I was in an accident and totaled it. The insurance settlement was more than I paid for the car. I then went back to Frank and bought another car that I still enjoy 10 years later.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Yvonne B.El Cerrito, CA33Jun 17, 2015
I was always very wary of going to a used car dealership. Heard all kinds of scary stories. When I went onto the lot at Wholesale Motors, I wasn't accosted. In fact, I had to go into the office to talk to Frank. He is a no pressure kind of person. He was such a great listener, and truly interested in my situation and dilemma as well as my need for a car. Frank has provided me with 4 cars over the last 20 years. I have always been able to get my repairs done at his cost, saving me thousands of dollars.
I see people going in to see him all the time, and he has a great deal of repeat business because of his reputation. People say that you can't trust a used car salesman, but I would go on record as saying he is the absolute exception to the rule. I am completely happy and look forward to visiting him, even when I don't have a car issue. Can't say that about your car dealer very often, now can you?!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
