I served the country in the U.S. Navy for over 20 years. Now I'm here serving you and your new vehicle wants, needs and desires. You won't find a harder working management team at any other dealership. We fight with every lender to get you the best terms available. I've been happily married for 20+ years with 2 beautiful girls & a cat that we inherited. In the little spare time i do get, you might catch my cruising the back roads on my motorcycle or see me at church playing my 5 string bass guitar. We hope you'll become a part of the Team Tosa Kia family!
