I'm a Veteran and a Patriot! I LOVE CARS AND I LOVE MAKING DEALS! MEETING NEW PEOPLE AND HELPING SOLVE THEIR PROBLEMS.  PEOPLE do not trust car dealers, I understand, believe me I know a lot of them. I love the fact that when people leave my office they say I've never had an experience like this in my life BUYING a car!  Buying a car does not have to be scary, let us help you.

CO-OWNER AND MY WIFE! Everyone who walks in our facility can't get over how nice it looks, how unlike a car dealership it looks, and that is all my wife's doing, she wanted our customers to have a common different experience than your normal car dealership.  Our store is clean and super modern, she has a heart for customers experience and how they think of us. We've actually had people say they are going to buy the car because the bathroom is so clean lol, I guess people have had some bad experiences at some of these dealerships, not ours!  With two little kids her role has changed at the dealership, she comes in and helps me with some office work on a weekly basis, but we are grateful that she is around and can solve a lot of our problems!  She ran the back office for a 450 "car a month" store in Indianapolis, so she comes with a wealth of experience!  and a great smile!

Daniel is a young star in the car business for only being in his 20s he has exceptional product knowledge and Customer Service, he is bilingual and just a genuine person.  In three years he has been with me I've never heard him raise his voice or even get angry with a customer, he always maintains a calm attitude and has a problem solver.  HE IS GREAT TO DEAL WITH BECAUSE HE'S NOT A OLD SEASON CAR GUY WITH A BUNCH OF TRICKS AND GIMMICKS, LIKE I SAID HE'S JUST A GENUINE GUY WHO WILL ALWAYS BE TRANSPARENT AND HONEST WITH YOU.  He is very involved at his local church and I can attest that those principles or what GUIDES says every move.  I'm glad he is on my team and is my right hand man, he keeps me grounded and remind me of what's important every DAY!
