I've been in the auto business since I was born. My father had a lot in Springfield until he passed. I was never one to want to go to school, Ialways wanted to be at the dealership with my Dad.. From my fathers lot I went into the new car business right out of high school. After 12 years on the new car side I got into the wholesale side of the business.. What I love about my job is the ability to help guide my clients through the purchase of their next new vehicle with ease and confidence and the hopes of not just selling the vehicle but making a friend and client for life.

I had never darkened the door at Oakleys, but wanted to check out a Jeep I noticed on their website. We were not expecting to do business, at all, but things changed throughout the day. In a good way. The check out a Jeep I noticed on their website. We were not expecting to do business, at all, but things changed throughout the day. In a good way. The employees at the dealership we had contact with, made the entire buying process easy and they were very friendly. Jeremy Zaruba was the salesman we made contact with, and he was very knowledgeable about the vehicles we were looking at. He was also very patient, friendly, welcoming, and straightforward. Jeremy was sure to make sure we had all the information we needed to make a sound decision, once we had decided to go ahead and purchase one of the Jeeps we were looking at. His help and time is very much appreciated. Great salesman and we highly recommend him. More
