Hello! I’m David O’Daniel, born and raised here in Fort Wayne. I attended Bishop Dwenger High School, Ivy Tech, and Hope College. I have actually worked here since I was a child. I started out cleaning drains and picking up trash. I have a strong passion for the car business, and the people at O’Daniel all share the same drive, and have a great amount of respect for others. I pride myself in honoring our family tradition that my Grandfather started, by putting our customers first. I am the 3rd generation in the car business it is a privilege to follow in the same steps my grandfather and my father took to get to where they are today. I’m looking forward to keeping our family business alive and well with holding myself to our high standards of ethics and accountability. In my free time I enjoy playing golf, being outdoors, going to the gym, and spending time with my friends and family.

Our salesman, Luis Parreno, was helpful, and knowledgeable, and provided the most pleasant shopping experience we've ever had when looking for a car. We always dread car shopping, but now we're looking forward to going back. More
