Everyone has to buy cars...but why buy from someone you don't know, don't like, wasn't there last week or even worse...won't be there next week? There is a better way! I am a country boy from middle Georgia with 3 passions in life...family, creating raving fans of my laid back, no pressure, no haggle approach to the car buying process and of course deer hunting. I started selling General Motors in June of 1986 with a small, hometown dealer in Georgia. I was there for 24 years before falling in love with deer hunting in the mid-west. So in 2010 I packed up and moved to southern Illinois and came to be a permanent part of the Expressway family. When you meet me, you will know without a doubt that I absolutely love what I do! I pride myself on massive repeat and referral business...and creating raving fans. Please feel free to contact me through here or text/call at 812-270-2548. I would love the opportunity to call you a friend and to earn your business for life.

Best of the best Started dealing with Jim thompson at expressway several years ago, I have always been leary of big dealerships till I walked in this place! I have bou Started dealing with Jim thompson at expressway several years ago, I have always been leary of big dealerships till I walked in this place! I have bought several cars since as well as taking my parents, grandmother and son here to buy. I have referred countless friends and in just this last week two have bought from jim. When you can get my father to go to a big store like this and walk out happy they must be doing something right. They don't play games, they answer every question promptly and honestly, they show you exactly what you are looking for and never try to up sell you to something you can't afford or want. I could go on and on, bottom line great service, ALWAYS the best prices and with their huge inventory chances are you will leave in a new car with a smile on your face knowing that jI'm gave you the best deal you could have found!

My first experience won't be my last. I can only say good things about my experience with Jim Thompson at Expressway Automart in Mt. Vernon IN. He was very helpful and friendly. I live abo I can only say good things about my experience with Jim Thompson at Expressway Automart in Mt. Vernon IN. He was very helpful and friendly. I live about an hour and half away with a full time job and my husband's schedule is crazy to say the least. We were able to purchase a vehicle in a short amount of time. Instead of spending alot of time at the dealership I was able to communicate and send information back and forth on my computer/phone. I would definitely go back when I am ready to purchase again. Jim and Dante were great to work with. More

He was very helpful and was I was very impressed with everyone at the dealership. I spent the most time with Jim Thompson, and he did a wonderful job. He was very helpful and was not pushy at all, which was a huge reason as to why I liked him. He was so personable and easy to work with. I will highly recommend others to come see him at Expressway. He made my car buying experience great. Even when I went to sign the paperwork, Jim and Dimitri made everything go so smoothly for me. I was very surprised at how quick and non-stressful it was. Again, I was very impressed with Jim and Rob and really appreciate all of their help! I can tell these guys really like what they do and are good at it. More

Best Car Buying Experience Ever!! From the moment we met Jim, it was nothing but a great experience . He asked us what we were looking for. We told him and he immediately found a vehic From the moment we met Jim, it was nothing but a great experience . He asked us what we were looking for. We told him and he immediately found a vehicle for us to look at. We explained our situation with our trade in and what price we wanted to be at. He brought up several points and how the cars would make them work for us. We never once felt pressured or lied to. The vehicle we got was newer and had more options than the one we originally went there to purchase. We absolutely love our car and will not go to any other car dealer in the future. More

Repeat customer Our first experience with expressway was such a good experience we knew that we had to go back to Jim when looking for a bigger family vehicle. We nev Our first experience with expressway was such a good experience we knew that we had to go back to Jim when looking for a bigger family vehicle. We never had any pressure from our salesman and he didn't just show us vehicles to put us in something, he really listened to our needs and went above and beyond to find us the right one. Everyone from sales, service and finace was so pleasant to work with. There have been times we needed a loaner vehicle and we always get the best quality vehicles with no hassle. If you are just looking to get ideas of what you would like or a serious buyer I highly suggest expressway and Jim Thompson! More
