  • Adam Bowman
    Owner/Sales

    I was born and raised around my father's dealerships as far back as I can remember! From working in the wash bay, to the service department, to parts. I am now an Owner/Salesman and am excited to learn every aspect of the business. I always looked up to my father, and I strive to make my mark in the business. One thing he taught me from a young age is to treat customers the way I would want to be treated!

  • Brian Ratliff
    Sales

    I have grown up in and around the automotive industry for most of my life. I started in the industry as a young teen in a family-owned dealership in Whitesburg, Kentucky. With everything that I have learned throughout my years in sales, the most important thing to me is to treat you like family and to take care of you beyond the sale of the vehicle.
