I'm a lifelong resident of Ocean County, NJ, so of course, I love the beach and the bay. My passions have always been cars and motorcycles (with a soft spot for convertibles). I truly enjoy getting to know people helping folks into their next vehicle. I have also been known to share a few too many pictures of my Great Danes as well. I try to live by the 'Platinum Rule'; "Treat others the way THEY want to be treated".

John was very courteous, personable and professional as were all the staff that we encountered at Lester Glenn Mazda. There was no hard sell. John researched the kind of vehicle we were looking to buy, p were all the staff that we encountered at Lester Glenn Mazda. There was no hard sell. John researched the kind of vehicle we were looking to buy, provided options and comparisons and after test driving a couple of vehicles, we decided on one. John took the time to instruct us on all of the various displays and features of the vehicle and answered all of our questions even after agreement was reached. We had a good experience in a situation that we were anxious about prior to our visit. We would recommend that anyone looking to buy a Mazda go this dealer first. More
