Wife & I live in NW Fresno. Two grown boys. What a career! At about 8, I sold greeting cards, then the Fresno Bee as an 11-12 year old. 25 years in radio programming & some sales. On our radio commercials for Subaru of Fresno and the Mitsubishi TV commercials as "Granny". Certified Senior Adviser: I had an insurance brokerage - which still exists - dealing mostly with Medicare Supplements, Long Term Care Insurance, Life Insurance and Annuities. Over my life I have had lots of sales training. Currently I operate under the belief that EVERY part of the sales process should be ABOUT YOU from the book "Code Halos - How the Digital Lives of People, Things, and Organizations are Changing the Rules of Business". I have been trained in car sales and am Certified by Grant Cardone as well as Michael Hargrove at Bottom Line Underwriters. I have been strongly influenced by SPIN selling. Hobbies: Playing cards, home brewing & English Bull Terriers.

"I would do it again!"
- MargoThe entire expérience of researching, test driving, purchasing and participating in a "crash course" about my new vehicle was easy and fun. I bought a 2019 Subaru Forester from Mason Monson and working with him was actually enjoyable. He and Ed Monson are courteous, friendly, helpful and very knowledgable. Would I recommend them - heck yes!

"WOW superb job"
- ConnieLee46No waiting. In and out in an hour and a half like promised. Abraham was totally professional. My car was in for six months maintenance even though I didn’t have 6,000 miles on my car they still changed the oil and rotated the tires. With no charges, everything included in price of automobile.

"Great Department "
- SrjiiiJohn DeOrona runs a top notch department! I had BMW's for twenty years and their service and graciousness did not compare. Great cars, these Subarus, and service reflects a certain enthusiasm that I jus haven't seen elsewhere!

"Late Night Great Night"
- Green QueenThey stayed way past closing time to help us purchase my dream car. We drove all the way from Stockton just to get the jasper green Forester premium. We got delayed and arrived 30 minutes prior to closing. Everyone was so helpful, and Ed even stayed later to go over all the fancy technology. They all deserve some extra time off! I love this car!

"Amazing!"
- MKarI am NOT a fan of buying cars, and have always found it to be a frustrating experience. But, from the moment that we walked on to the Lithia lot and were met by Ed, the experience was amazing. He was honest and helpful and not pushy at all. When we decided to actually purchase the car, it was late and we never felt rushed by Ed. He acted like he had nowhere to be on a Saturday evening (which wasn't true) and he helped my boys hook up their phones to the Apple Car Play and asked us over and over if we had any more questions. The whole experience with Ed was top notch!

"Friendly and very helpful all without being pushy!"
- HKroenckeEd Monson was our salesman. He was super nice from the get go. He didn't let a little rain dampen our experience ;-) We never felt pressured or pushed and we really respect that. We were nice and open but ended up with the car of our dreams. Ramzy in the finance office was super personable and fun to hang out with while we did all the paperwork. We can't wait to put some miles on our new Ascent, and for all the years we will get to enjoy it! Thank you again!
