A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Do I need AWD in New Jersey?
Most NJ roads are plowed within hours of a storm, so AWD is helpful but not strictly necessary for typical suburban commuters. Drivers in rural areas, long highways, or with steeper driveways benefit most from AWD. A front-wheel drive vehicle with quality winter tires can outperform AWD on all-season tires in most NJ conditions.

“Easy and pain free.” Say that about anything and it’s positively notable. Say that about car shopping and it’s pleasantly surprising. Thanks to David, Sebastian and team for their soup to nuts support.

My wife and I recently moved from the city and needed a car but didn’t know where to start. At first we tried online, but it was honestly a little overwhelming. I reached out to a local friend for leads, and he pointed me to Vantage. I hopped on a call with Sean after work and gave him a rough outline for what we were looking for. I’m not a car guy, so it was basically: “I need something safe, reliable, and not falling apart.” Sean very much IS a car guy, and he took it from there. After going over our budget, he recommended a couple options, as well as compelling reasons to lease instead of buying used as we had planned. The next morning we went back and forth via text to hash out the details, and then that afternoon a beautiful brand new car within our budget rolled into our driveway. I signed some paperwork with his team, and that was that. Literally less than 24 hours after the initial phone call, I was all set. It was easier than 99% of all my other projects that go into moving to the burbs. The whole experience was extremely communicative and chill. And on top of everything else…I straight up love this car. I fear I’m a car guy now. Thanks, Vantage.

After 30 years of car buying this has been the best experience I’ve had. Sean has been helpful, resourceful and easy to work with. I’ll never go back to the archaic dealership process again.

Sean and the team are fantastic, and make a complicated process really easy. Not to mention they got us a lease deal on our new jeep at a better price than what we’ve been paying the last 4 years… can’t thank them enough!
