Kris opened DLR in 2004 with the idea that the car business did not have to be business as usual. Built on 10 core principles you can still find written on his wall, by 2008 DLR had become the 2nd highest volume Internet Auction Retailer in the Nation. When not at work Kris is active in his local Church and enjoys spending time with his wife, Victoria and 2 children, Asher & Beckett. Kris Gaerlan GM….“What really drives this place is great people. Great employees make great businesses. It is just that simple" DLR Core Principles • Be honest • Be fair • Be valuable • Be trustworthy • Be willing to work for it • Do what you say you are going to do (say you will do something) • GOLDEN RULE • Treat coworkers and customers with the same regard • Act as if your family/children were watching you • Don’t dodge the question

They were not We flew in to check out a Durango they had and she even offered to pick us up from the airport. The GM is very nice and understanding. They were not pushy to make the sale, even told us they would pay for our flights home if we weren’t 100% on the vehicle purchase. This was the best car buying experience I have ever had. Definitely going to check this place out for any future cars! Thank you Kayla! I think we made some lifelong friends for sure :) More

Best dealer experience in the state of Texas, hands down. I have purchased 4 cars from here, and have sent friends to purchase here as well. You will not have a better experience anywhere else.
