Chat with me for a few minutes, and it’s easy to see why I dig my job. Put simply, I believe in the product – and the Don Ayres Experience. My coworkers and I don’t just sell cars, we build meaningful relationships with our customers. I have been the Honda sales manager at Don Ayres since November 1999 and before that I was in sales for 3 years. My father sold Honda's here for over 20 years, so it is really a family affair. I've been married to my beautiful wife Kara since 2004. We have 2 awesome children, Caleb and Savannah. We have lived in the Fort Wayne area all of our lives and enjoy going to Hamilton lake and spending time with family.

Wonderful experience purchasing our new Honda Odyssey My wife and I had a wonderful experience at Don Ayers Honda. Andy Hitzemann was exceptional to work with. We found Andy to be extremely knowledgeabl My wife and I had a wonderful experience at Don Ayers Honda. Andy Hitzemann was exceptional to work with. We found Andy to be extremely knowledgeable not only in the Honda Odyssey but also with the technology equipped with Honda vehicles. After purchasing our Odyssey, he spent as much time as necessary explaining the technology and answering our questions. In addition, Andy followed up 5 days after our purchase to ask if we had any questions. Thanks to Andy Hitzemann and Don Ayers for a great experience. More

5 Star Dealership After leasing a Honda Civic from Don Ayres, I decided to return because I was more than pleased with the reliability and little to no maintenance that After leasing a Honda Civic from Don Ayres, I decided to return because I was more than pleased with the reliability and little to no maintenance that comes along with these vehicles. Everyone I encounter at Don Ayres Honda continues to go out of their way to make certain that purchasing a new car goes as smoothly as possible. Sales and leasing consultant, Rick Kruger made it especially easy to narrow down what car specifically suited my interests. Finance & Insurance manager, John Hofmann was very personable and made a terrific effort to assure that the paperwork would take as little time as possible so I could get out and enjoy my new Honda Accord. Even sales manager, Rick Squires stopped by to greet and verify that I was 100% satisfied. I would highly recommend Don Ayres Honda to anyone in the greater Fort Wayne area. Thanks again, guys! More
