Yes, I’m the guy on the radio. And no, I really don’t have a Factory Connection. My connections are to the customers we serve, the products we sell and the people we employ. Every day is an adventure. I love meeting new people. Most importantly, I love changing people’s perceptions of buying a car. Yes, it’s a big decision but also an exciting one. My staff and I work hard to put our customers in a car they will love at a price they can afford. Most people in the automobile industry didn’t plan on it for a career choice but it’s a great industry to be in.
