Hi I am Jay. I have been in the car business since right after I graduated college. My father started back in 1983 when I was a teenager, and after graduating college(thanks dad), I came back to the business because I loved the integrity and honesty that he brought to the industry.
I have worked for several different manufacturers, the most recent being Saturn Corporation. It was Saturn that taught me the importance of the customer in every aspect of our business.
I never thought a lot about Subaru before I got to know the company and the brand when I visited the US plant in Lafayette, Indiana. It was there that I learned about all of the advanced technology and quality that goes into every Subaru manufactured. The symmetrical all wheel drive system that Subaru uses is the most advanced in the world, and it had never occurred to me that the Boxer engine in the same technology used by Porsche for their Boxster model( a $50,000+ car.) Basically Subaru makes a vehicle with technology that you just can't find elsewhere even close to the price-range.
I invite anyone to come into our Dealership and drive a Subaru for yourself. Even though it rarely snows in this area( that's why you love it), we DO get some major rainstorms. That is when the technology and stability of a Subaru really shines.
