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.

Know what you are buying Recently purchased an 06 Jeep Wrangler. It had just over 100K miles and was pretty clean. I had been looking for a long time and seen and driven qui Recently purchased an 06 Jeep Wrangler. It had just over 100K miles and was pretty clean. I had been looking for a long time and seen and driven quite a few. This appeared to be in better shape than most, and they were demanding top dollar. I decided it was worth spending more to avoid problems immediately. I have had the vehicle for 32 days and just over 300 miles driven (the majority driving back to KC). I am already looking at repair bills of $1K to $1,500 (Not covered by the Oakley Advantage program which I paid extra for). It is a 13 year old Jeep and they are not going to be perfect, but I am pretty disappointed since some of this should have obvious to their service team. To their credit they did write me a check for $140 to offset some of the costs and I am out of town so the service department their can’t help. It is a nice facility and the sales team was efficient and friendly. Like any dealer, be cautious and know what you want and what is reasonable on price. If you are local, their service folks might make a difference. Based on my experience I would call it an average experience at best and unfortunately would not recommend to my friends or family. More

Quick and Easy buying experience. Worked with Chad at Oakley Auto World this weekend. I was interested about a car that I saw on the website and called up. Went to the dealership to Worked with Chad at Oakley Auto World this weekend. I was interested about a car that I saw on the website and called up. Went to the dealership to look at the car and Chad was very upfront about the vehicle and its history (93 Wrangler, so obviously rough around the edges to say the least!) After a test drive, we went inside to discuss price and I found Chad to be very understanding and honest in the negotiation. I felt happy with price that we agreed on and the whole time at dealership was probably 45 mins. Also there was a really well behaved dog there that was very friendly, my wife appreciated that very much! More
