Joe Gambino, Sr has had a passion for cars since he was a young boy. Growing up in Brooklyn, New York he was afforded many opportunities, but none compared to his dreams of one day owning his own car dealership.
In 1956 Mr. Gambino and his wife moved to Phoenix, AZ and purchased Bobby Unser Chevrolet in 1983. The store was renamed Joe Gambino Chevrolet shortly thereafter. For years, Mr. Gambino lived the life he had always dreamed of and enjoyed the privilege of being the furthest Chevrolet dealer west in the country. People flocked from miles around to visit Joe Gambino Chevrolet because of their honest, up-front business model: We're not completely satisfied until you're completely satisfied.At Joe Gambino's Gateway Chevrolet, we believe a trusting relationship with our customers is the best way to run a business. We don't just want one-time customers; we want you to purchase vehicles from us for generations to come. We want you to become a part of the Gateway Chevrolet family, and believe, just as Joe Gambino, Sr did, that a family run business is the best type of business.
A lot of things have changed over the years, but two things remain the same. A family owned business with over 30 years of experience in the Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale and greater Arizona area, and our philosophy: we're not completely satisfied until you're completely satisfied.
In 1997, Joe Gambino Chevrolet became Gateway Chevrolet and in January 2002, they moved from their old location on East Van Buren to a brand-new state of the art facility in the Avondale Automall located at 9901 W. Papago Freeway. The new location provided expanded service bays, comfortable customer areas and even more room for inventory; but most importantly, an ease of business that can only be translated into happy customers.Joe Gambino, Sr has a son Joseph (or Joe Jr.) Joe Jr's affinity for rare automobiles and to be just like his dad led him into the business at a young age. When Joe Jr was 23, he became a sales person at Gateway Chevrolet. His determination for success and perfection led him up through the ranks until 2010 when he became the General Manager of Gateway Chevrolet. Committed to selling cars at a great price and maintaining a positive relationship with the community, Joe Gambino, Jr. and Joe Gambino's Gateway Chevrolet have become a staple in the Phoenix and Greater Arizona area.

The salesman had very little knowledge about the vehicle I was interested in. I later found some things that were concerning but when I reached out I was told someone would get back to me which never happen I was interested in. I later found some things that were concerning but when I reached out I was told someone would get back to me which never happened. A week later I made a trip back down to the dealership and spoke with the sales and the service managers and was ensured that the GM would get back to me which never happened. I called in a week later and was told the message would be walked over to management and I would get a call in the next 10 minutes which never happened. Now here we are over a month later and my concerns have yet to be addressed. Not a bad place to buy a car if you never want to speak to someone about your concerns. More

Sales rep didn't know Sirius radio has 90 day trial. Finance was no longer interested in me after I declined xtra warranty & service plan.

No big "Market Adjustment" of $10,000 added to price like other dealers. Largest Southwest Chevy Dealer so they actually got in six ZR2's while we were shopping for one. Got ours and the rest sold in a day. Just what we wanted in a New Car/Truck Dealer, courteous, great service, no pressure, no bull and know their product. Thanks Gateway Chevy. Mark and Barb C. More
