You've come to the right place!

All our s at The Car Dad are smog certified, safety inspected, and professionally detailed, ready for their next owner. I spend a great deal of time sourcing the finest, quality previously owned s, and I pick only the best. We take the time to make sure they are properly reconditioned and ready to drive you wherever you need to go. As a licensed dealer, we process the sales tax and DMV for our customers, so you don't have to deal with the hassle, unlike a private party purchase where that responsibility is yours alone.

Our promise to you is that we will provide you with a great and give you all the information to make a well-informed decision for you and your family. And we'll make sure the experience is a no-pressure, hassle free one as well. From The Car Dad, The Car Son, and The Car Mom, we thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. And we understand, it's our responsibility to earn it.

Why is buying a so difficult?

Most dealers hold back important information until you’re deep into the process—so deep that backing out feels uncomfortable. We believe that’s the wrong way to do business. At The Car Dad, we give you the information you need right up front, so you can make a clear, confident decision from the very beginning.

Buying a should never feel like walking in the dark.

I’ve spent over 40 years in the business—selling, managing, and consulting—and I’ve seen just about every kind of dealership there is. Along the way, I learned exactly how not to treat people. That’s why The Car Dad does things differently.

We take the time to help you choose a that truly fits your needs, your lifestyle, and your budget. Just like a good dad would, we care about your specific situation, and we make sure you understand all your options before you commit to anything. Our goal is simple: we want you to feel good about your not just today, but months and even years from now—yes, even when the payments come due.

No hidden information. No surprises. No regrets. Just a great , a fair deal, and the confidence that you made the right choice.

Our mission is to help people reach their personal, professional, and financial goals through better transportation.

And if credit is a concern—whether it’s bad credit, no credit, or something in between—you’re not alone, and you’re not out of options. We work with cash buyers and credit buyers alike, and we specialize in credit challenges. We’ll walk you through the process, explain your choices clearly, and help find a solution that works for you.

Who is The Car Dad?

Some of us are lucky enough to have a dad who knows about used vehicles and can tell the difference between a good vehicle and a bad one. If you are one of the lucky ones, you know how valuable it can be to call up your dad and get his opinion—maybe even ask for help to get just the right deal. For the rest of us, there is the Car Dad.

The Car Dad knows vehicles. We are here to give you the benefit of this experience and know-how. The Car Dad will not waste your time, and we won't try to “sell” you a used vehicle that is not the right vehicle for you.
