Yard report from Amarillo, TX: Panhandle Plains Autos runs about 70 vehicles, weighted toward pickup trucks and work trucks. Dealer permit posted at the office window; checked against the state board and it is current, roughly 17 years on the books.
Lot address: 5381 Industrial Blvd, Amarillo, TX. Visitor parking: Front-lot customer stalls facing the office; overflow on the side street near Amarillo lot gate.
- Doc fee: $399, printed on the buyer's order — not a surprise line at signing.
- Pre-purchase inspection allowed on their lift or off-site — no pushback.
- Titles: staff says about 97% of units have title in hand; they showed the folder when asked.
- Coverage: a 3-month/3,000-mile limited warranty.
Lane verdict: legitimate operation. Fee sheet matched the quote, title work was clean, and the pickup trucks and work trucks inventory was priced inside auction-plus-recon math. Would bid against them and lose happily.
