I have been in the car business since 1999. Subaru is my second job in the industry. I will never forget the commitment I am asking customers to make with their hard-earned money. Anyone that walks through our doors will be treated like guest in my own home. I often have told customers that I have a great view of the American Dream playing itself out in our showroom: people of every diversity with the only common denominator being hard work.

I was there again earlier this year to sign a lease for a new vehicle as my Forester lease was up. Ray Montes was my guy for the second time with a lease product. Ray is quite the understated sales person. More
