I just purchased a vehicle from Ultimate Rides. I have nothing but GREAT things to say about Carlos and Ultimate Rides! For starters he is so easy to talk with, and has such an honest, caring demeanor. You know that you are having a genuine conversation with him. His shop and office are impeccably clean and well maintained. All of the vehicles in his inventory are meticulously cleaned and maintained. The engine bay on the vehicle that I purchased looked as though it had just rolled off of the factory production floor. He also invited me to view the engine bay of a higher mileage vehicle than mine, and it as well looked as though it was straight from the manufacturer. I would say that any vehicle that Carlos has posted for sale is going to be in exceptional condition.

Working with Carlos at Ultimate Rides is the best car buying decision you can make. Carlos is knowledgable, professional, and full of integrity. We were in the process of trying to sell our two compact cars privately in order to upgrade a new SUV for the family. We knew exactly what we wanted and how much we could afford. Carlos listened to our needs and found our dream car. He worked with us to trade in our cars so we wouldn't have to sell them and gave us an incredible deal. He only chooses the best cars and inspects them meticulously throughout each step of the process. On top of that, he never charges any extraneous dealer fees. He is completely upfront about the total purchase price. Carlos has made the car buying experience enjoyable again!

I just bought my first car through ultimate rides and had a wonderful experience. I wasn't too sure if I wanted to buy this beautiful Honda Accord because it was raining too hard to test drive. The owner was very understanding and allowed me to down a deposit, and if I don't like it after test driving it later in the week I could have my money back. He doesn't charge a dealers fee, what you see is what you pay+tax. I got a silver 2012 Honda Accord with 75,000 miles for $14k after tax. He could've easily charged me $17k because of how well kept the car was. But he just likes selling cars for a fair price. I definitely recommend Ultimate Rides if you're looking to get a high quality used car.

We stumbled upon Carlos almost 3 years ago. We bought a Tundra and an Audi A7 (he took our Genesis as a trade) and have loved them both! Last week we stopped in because we needed a beefier truck for towing. He had a beautiful Silverado (cleanest truck I’ve ever seen) and took the one we had previously bought as a trade. We were out the door in about 45 minutes! Carlos is a genuine, honest businessman and has the highest standards for the types of vehicles he’ll sell. If we ever left the area and he had a car I was interested in, I trust him enough to buy it sight unseen. I can’t imagine ever saying that about any other used car business. He has definitely earned our trust

Not sure why all the 5 stars, maybe carlos was having a bad day when i met him. I looked over a vehicle in the garage without interaction with carlos. Not sure why he wouldn't want to talk up his inventory. To this day, I don't understand carlos' reluctance to allow a test drive but he did say it drove great. That's nice and only an opinion. Carlos had his feet up on his desk when I was in the office discussing price and didn't provide a guest chair. Due to the lack of sales charisma and test drive, I walked. Three weeks later, carlos still owns the vehicle I was interested in. I guess he loves his inventory more than money. If he was giving away cars, I wouldn't go back!

I bought a used Lexus from Carlos and it was a great buying experience. The car really looked as good in person as it did in the pictures. An independent inspection confirmed the vehicle was also as-described. If you check his website, you'll see he only has a few cars in inventory and they're all hand-picked and immaculate. His inventory is stored indoors in a spotless garage with a polished floor. This is not a typical "used car lot." The buying process was simple, Carlos was honest, helpful, and friendly. The next time I'm shopping for a vehicle I'll call Carlos.

  • Katherine Hush

Carlos is FABULOUS!! I typically stay away from private dealers but thought I'd give him a try. I'm so glad I did. He had the perfect car for me and is very easy to work with. I believe he's a fair, honest man and strongly encourage anyone looking for a vehicle to contact him. Words can't express how grateful I am for him. My car was totaled last week, and I've been looking day and night for another one. Dealing with all kinds of used car salespeople (scammers) high dealer fees, just worn out with the process. He doesn't have dealer fees, great person to work with.

  • Luke Little

I am all for standing your ground on the way you run your business, but to be condescending and rude from simple questions is unsettling, especially coming from the owner (Carlos). The customer is NOT always right, but the art of explanation by owners is apparently a declining characteristic, and he is at the lowest end of that. I just get the feeling he loves his business, but not the customers, and I can’t get behind that. I highly recommend everyone look to the plenty of other places in the area that sell cars.

  • Mike Jones

Purchased a 2011 Toyota Highlander that was in great condition. I was able to test drive 3 vehicles that were also available, all in amazingly great shape. Carlos was able to share with me his knowledge concerning the vehicles that I looked at and drove, which really helped me with the final choice. The whole experience was a non-pressure unique experience. I would recommend checking out Ultimate Rides if your looking for a vehicle that's in great shape, checked out by experienced mechanics and priced right.

  • Joseph Markham

Purchase 2012 Toyota Sienna from Carlos at Ultimate Rides. When I stepped on the lot at Ultimate Rides I knew this was good place to purchase a vehicle. Every vehicle on location is top notch. My wife and I are very pleased with the van we purchased for our traveling needs. Our buying experience was simple and clear cut. Carlos knows his vehicles are in excellent condition so there is no need to waste alot of time haggling. With in minutes he offered his lowest out the door price with No Dealer Fees !

  • Russell Cederberg

We just bought an older Toyota Camry as a second vehicle from Carlos and the experience was as ideal as it possibly could be. He was very up front about the exact condition of the car and was friendly and easy to communicate with as well. The price was fair and we are really pleased with what we got. When it comes time to replace our primary vehicle, Carlos will be my first (and probably last) stop. Thank you very much for making a potentially stressful exchange so easy and pleasant.

  • Christopher Wright

I had a great experience with Carlos. His communication was direct, clear, and prompt when scheduling the appointment. He shot straight through the entire conversation and deal that involved me trading my vehicle in. He showed all the numbers and calculations that were done. There were absolutely no surprises or unknown costs in my purchase. I highly recommend keeping an eye on his website, and reaching out the minute you see a vehicle of interest. You will not be disappointed.

  • Brian E. Goode

Carlos, at Ultimate Rides, made my purchasing experience so comfortable and easy. He takes great pride in his business and the vehicles he offers. At 49 years of age, I have experienced several car dealership sales experiences, and none of them come close to the personable service that Carlos offers. I highly recommend Ultimate Rides for your next car/truck buying experience! I am completely happy with my 2015 GMC Sierra that I purchased there!! 5 STARS!!!

  • Chelsea Learn

Buying a car from Carlos at Ultimate Rides was the best vehicle shopping experience we've had. He went above and beyond to help us get into our new family vehicle, a 2005 Toyota Camry, which was in great condition. If you want to deal with someone who is straightforward, has experienced mechanics check the vehicles and sells them at a fair price - talk to Carlos at Ultimate Rides I'm sure there is something for everyone.

  • Amanda Lathrop

Carlos is very honest and easy to work with! Made me an awesome deal with a beautiful, clean Tahoe! He made sure everything was perfect with the ride before I left with it! He truly shown that he cares about his customers. I will be coming back in the future along with recommending him to my friends and family. ALSO.... His wife is the sweetest!!!! Love to support the hard working local business owners!

  • R Scott Hartsfield

Ultimate Rides provides the ultimate service! Typical big-box dealerships drive me crazy. They typically like to hold you hostage for 8 hours and have a dozen folks talk to you. Not at Ultimate Rides. One person for everything and you are in and out in record time! I can’t thank Carlos enough for his excellent style – and I look forward to using him for my next purchase!

  • Freddy Tchuente

Carlos was very professional and reassuring throuhout the entire process. The Car is a gift for my father. It was super clean and just AS described. My dad is amazed by his new car and how clean it looks. Also the price is very good. It was the best deal by far in the entire Florida. The man doesnt try to win over you. Hes is overall a very good man to do business with.

  • Sean Stachurski

After communicating with Carlos I had my son drive from Detroit to Jacksonville to trade in our taurus for this expedition & the suv was everything Carlos said it would be! We love our new truck! Carlos made the trade in process very easy and was so so helpful with any questions we had! We give Carlos 5 stars and his vehicles are high quality!

  • Ron Ballinger

Purchased my 04 Corvette Z06 from Ultimate Rides in Jacksonville, Fl. Ordered sight unseen except for photos. I was really impressed when I received it. My purchase and all transactions went extremely well. I would definitely recommend Carlos Bosque of Ultimate Rides of Jacksonville, Florida to anyone who is looking to purchase a vehicle.

  • Tony Richard II

My experience doing business with Ultimate Rides has been absolutely phenomenal. The bottom line is my vehicle was flawless mechanically, and aesthetically. I was able to test drive, see vehicle history, call at anytime with questions, and do all my research before my purchase with no hassle. Highly suggest doing business with them!

  • Mary Whitaker

We just purchased a truck from Carlos. He was very nice and worked with us to make the deal. He was also very proficient so we were able to complete the paper work quickly.

Carlos at ultimate rides was very professional and a man of his word. Being an out of state buyer, he endured the vehicle purchase experience was beyond reproach.

Had a comfortable, easy buying process. The owner answered all of my questions and was forthcoming on details about the condition of the vehicle. Provided receipts of maintenance performed while in their custody which was excellent. Will look here next time I'm in the market.
