I grew up in a small town called Wymore, Nebraska which is located two hours south of Omaha. In 2005, I graduated from Nebraska Christian College, and in 2012, I received my Master's in School Counseling. In my free time I enjoy playing golf and spending time with my family. I also enjoy rooting on the Huskers and Hawkeyes, needless to say the day after Thanksgiving is like watching my parents fight. Although I am not currently using my Master's in a school setting, counseling others make wise decisions in the car ownership experience is very important to me. My job here at Gorges Volvo Cars is to not only make sure you have a great experience the day you visit us, but for your entire ownership with your new car. Our Mission statement is to offer the highest level of quality products and service to establish life-long customers. I truly enjoy having our customers leave my office knowing they will be protected and having the peace of mind that we have their best interest in mind.

Fantastic Family Owned Dealer! We had a great experience purchasing our Jeep! It was hassle free and came with many pleasant surprises. Trust me they are good surprises! Having Marc We had a great experience purchasing our Jeep! It was hassle free and came with many pleasant surprises. Trust me they are good surprises! Having Marcus Gorges personally go over our paperwork was pretty neat. He took the time to tell us about the company and the generations of family that have run this business. He takes great pride in that and it shows. Gary, our sales person, was very friendly, not pushy, and took the time to find out what we were looking for. Most people dread having to buy a car for fear of working with the dealer. People tend to walk away from these experiences feeling like a number. That is not the case here at all! We were so impressed that we chose to enter into a service comtract with them. Which we didn't have to do! We still would have continued our relationship with them do to some of those extras I mentioned. This experience made me feel like we are now part of the Gorges family and honestly we are! I will definitely be working with them when we purchase our next vehicle! More

Great experience After visiting multiple big name car dealerships in Omaha I was perplexed, irritated and exhausted. I decided to take a chance with Gorges Volvo. Aar After visiting multiple big name car dealerships in Omaha I was perplexed, irritated and exhausted. I decided to take a chance with Gorges Volvo. Aaron was fantastic.! He listened to me and understood my needs/wants. I felt Aaron was not just trying to sell me a Volvo. He was Professional, Friendly, and Informative. Joel, (finance manager) completed my credit application on his day off! This was greatly appreciated since I had sold my car & needed something to drive. Thanks Gorges for the positive experience.
