"To start with your website is incredible!"
"To start with your website is incredible, I could tell that it was designed by someone who was very knowledgeable about your products. I loved the fact that a customer could talk with a knowledgeable representative if needed and I did. Your representative took the a few minutes to research my question and answered intelligently. This is the second vehicle that I own that I have installed a Yakima rack on. I was so pleased with your customer service. Your customer service was spot on and it was delivered in half the expected time frame."
