Born in Peoria IL and relocated to Cedar Rapids in 97’ with my wife Myrna, we started our family. Jasmine is now 26 and Jacob is 19 so you can imagine never a dull moment at our house. For pets, I have 2 aquatic turtles that beg for food whenever I am near the 55 gal tank that is stocked with several oversized Goldfish that now resemble Koi. My other pastime pleasure is cooking and thanks to my very thoughtful wife Myrna who bought me a smoker, I have acquired a love for smoked meats adding a layer to my waist line if you know what I mean. I have always been focused on taking care of customers and the last 19+ years I have spent in the car industry working on this 1 customer at a time. I take pride in having the privilege of running our internet team and being able to change the perception of how easy and hassle free a car buying experience can really be. A big THANK YOU to all my past customers and look forward to assisting all the future ones.

Thank you for being such great customers over the past 8 years. I welcome anyone you send my direction in the future. I think you are going to enjoy the rides back and forth to work. The 2014 Limited Rav is an awesome vehicle as you found out. See you both on the next round. Alan and Wendy

I want to thank you and Josh again for making the drive down from Waterloo to work with me. Means a lot and I wanted to thank you for bringing down the tomatoes from your garden. I shared with staff yesterday and was told this morning they were very very good. Congrats on the little one and I will see you both in the future or anyone you send down to see me. Alan
