Hello! I am John Zale. I am 28 years old. I was born and raised in Valparaiso, IN. I have sold cars for five years. I was a Certified Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram salesman through college. After college, I was a manufacturer's representative for Weber grills. As much fun as it was to be a travelling salesman, I missed being home every night and building a reputation in my own neighborhood! I'm proud to represent Mazda in Valparaiso as a Master Certified Salesman. If you'd give me a chance, I'd love to earn your business!

They take great care in work with the customer to ensure they have the right vehicle. The sales are not pushy and it’s apparent that the customer comes first. Hayden and John work hard to ensure you feel they have the right vehicle. The sales are not pushy and it’s apparent that the customer comes first. Hayden and John work hard to ensure you feel like family and that you’re comfortable with the vehicle you are wanting. I’ve been to Kennedy previously and not made purchases as the vehicles I looked at did not quite fit my needs; however, I’ve always wanted to do business with them as the pricing is excellent, the care and attentiveness is excellent, and the pressure is non-existent. They don’t slap on surprise fees like other dealers, and again they just do it right. Love our new vehicle and we’ll happily return in the future. More

Hands down the best car buying experience from the moment we walked in the door to the day we drove off in our new cx50 hybrid. Zero pressure to buy it right away and a fair price for trade in.
