A typical test drive takes 30-45 minutes from start to finish. This includes a quick check-in, a review of key features and controls, your drive time (usually 15-20 minutes on local roads), and a brief conversation about what you experienced. If you're driving multiple vehicles or diving deep into financing discussions, plan for closer to 90 minutes total. You're welcome to take your time - there's no rush. Our team wants you to feel confident in your choice, so we'll answer questions and let you soak in the experience at your pace. If you have a tight schedule, just mention it when you call **(877) 331-4442)** to book, and we'll streamline things for you. Either way, we're flexible and work around your availability to make the process as convenient as possible.
