I was born and raised in Pensacola, Florida, but in 2017 I moved to Georgia for the love of my life — and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. While I miss the beach and my family back home, I’ve fallen in love with the community and beautiful scenery here. I’m a proud parent of two amazing kids: my daughter, Zoey Brooke, who joined our family in August 2021, and my baby boy, Cade. They bring endless joy and adventure to my life every day. When I’m not spending time with my family, you’ll often find me exploring Georgia’s trails or enjoying a quiet picnic in one of our local parks. As a salesperson, I’m passionate about helping my clients find the perfect vehicle for their needs. I believe in building genuine relationships based on trust, transparency, and care — ensuring every experience is positive, memorable, and tailored to each customer.

Do not walk, run from this dealer! Went to dealer and dealt with a sales person named Jody Vaughn. After negotiating the price on a new Crosstrek, my wife and I were presented a price Went to dealer and dealt with a sales person named Jody Vaughn. After negotiating the price on a new Crosstrek, my wife and I were presented a price in writing. The car had not arrived at the dealer yet, but a deposit would hold it. Neither myself or my wife had a check with us and we told Jody this. Not wanting to put a deposit on a credit card, we explained that we would either come back with a check or transfer money into another account and call back with a debit card. The day the car arrived at the dealer I called and spoke to Jody at which time I was told he would send me his “best price” on the vehicle. Thinking that it might be better than what I was already given I was ok with this. When I received the new quote, it was higher than what we had originally agreed to by $2100. I was told that this was a different car. It was not. He said he could not do the price he had put in writing. I then called and spoke to Lance Whillhite, the Sales Manager. He verbally agreed to 2K off but that was off of MSRP and not the out the door price which is what was on the quote we had from Jody. Lance Whillhite refused to honor the price and stated that Jody was “not very good at math” in a text to me. Lance also stated that Jody was a 20 year old young man and mistakes happen. Jody is not 20 and many years older than that. This was a blatant lie. This whole experience was frustrating and a waste of my time. Now obvious this was a bait and switch and game with numbers and discounts. I have all texts and quote to support what happened and what was stated. More

Jody Vaughn was delightful to work with in the purchase of my Ascent. I previously had a 2016 Outback that I totaled in a wreck. I decided that I wanted a larger vehicle and the Ascent was the obvious choi of my Ascent. I previously had a 2016 Outback that I totaled in a wreck. I decided that I wanted a larger vehicle and the Ascent was the obvious choice. I saw Jody in the poring rain, he had the vehicle by the door ready to go. All my questions were answered and even those I didn't know to ask. When I came to pick up my car the next day, he reviewed everything in the car with me (again in the poring rain). He set up my phone with Apple play and made sure I knew how everything worked for me. I highly recommend his professionalism and product knowledge. This was the best experience I have ever had purchasing a new car. More

Jody was excellent! I actually came to see Matthew but he was busy and connected me with Jody. Jody has A-1 customer service skills. He is very professional, answered al I actually came to see Matthew but he was busy and connected me with Jody. Jody has A-1 customer service skills. He is very professional, answered all of my questions and if he didn't know the answer, he did not hesitate to find out. He went above and beyond and kept me abreast of what was going on until I got possession of the vehicle. If you are in the market for a vehicle Jody Vaughn is who you want to see! More

I bought my first car in 1978 (VW Rabbit) and many more since. My wife Terry and I agree that (1) this was probably our most fun, hassle-free buying experience and (2) Jody Vaughn is our favorite sales con since. My wife Terry and I agree that (1) this was probably our most fun, hassle-free buying experience and (2) Jody Vaughn is our favorite sales consultant, ever. He was extremely knowledgeable, very respectful and courteous and most importantly-- stayed in touch and answered every call, text message and email within minutes. The two other (non-Subaru) dealerships didn't come close to his professionalism and as a result he, not them, earned our business. We highly recommend him (would give ten stars if the rating permitted), the dealership and our new Subaru. More
