About The Company
We know what you think about car salespeople. We are quite aware of the reputation our industry’s earned. This is why we work hard to be a welcome contrast to our competition. If you want to pay more for your vehicle, or accept hidden conditions and fees, or get stuck paying for a vehicle you just purchased soon to find out it doesn’t fit in your garage (yes, it’s happened) — there are plenty of other dealers to choose from. Nothing is more important to us than our long term relationships with our employees, our guests, their families (and even their dogs!). When it comes to being part of the traditional dealership stereotype, we’re proud to take the road less travelled.
