General Sales Manager
Klaben Ford Lincoln
1089 West Main Street
Kent, OH 44240
I started working at Klaben when I was 16 years old, answering phones and filing paperwork. Throughout my high school and college years, I took on various roles at the dealership which helped to expand my knowledge and understanding of the business. I started working in the Finance Department at the age of 23, while completing my MBA at the University of Akron. I had a strong curiosity and interest in Finance, mostly because of my love for working with people and numbers. I worked as a Finance Manager for 19 years, and transitioned to the role of Sales Manager in August 2021. I am proud to work for a company that grounds itself in customer loyalty and satisfaction and have enjoyed the relationships I have built with several of my customers over the years.

Always great to work with whether a new lease or purchase. Everyone one is always fantastic and helpful at Klaben, especially our favorite salesman Kenny King! Kenny always makes is easy and always listens to Everyone one is always fantastic and helpful at Klaben, especially our favorite salesman Kenny King! Kenny always makes is easy and always listens to our needs and offers suggestions to give us the best value for our investment! Once we knew the vehicle to purchase we were whisked through the paperwork by one of the best individuals I have ever worked with in finance portion of the transaction. Christine Klaben helped to make this part quick and easy but was there, with patience, to answer any questions we had. Been working with Klaben for just under 20 years (with purchases of 21 vehicles for both family and business use) and they always will be our 1st and only choice! If you need a vehicle then check with Klaben Auto first! And say 'hi' to Kenny King :) More

Best Experience Ever My vehicle purchase at Klaben was truly an enjoyable experience. I "happened" to get connected with Eben Wicks because I called into the dealership in My vehicle purchase at Klaben was truly an enjoyable experience. I "happened" to get connected with Eben Wicks because I called into the dealership inquiring about a truck listed on their website. Together with Tim Casto, both these fine gentlemen treated me with respect and were prompt, courteous and professional. Very sincere and no pressure whatsoever. They answered all my questions. Additionally, they took extra steps to make sure I had the opportunity to understand everything about the history of the vehicle. I traveled over 40 miles one-way on three occasions to work with them and it was well worth it. The final purchase paperwork with Christine Klaben was quick and efficient. If you are in the market for a car or truck, I highly recommend you contact Eben Wicks. You'll be happy that you did. I know I was! More
