Larry Buckalew on the lot
On the lot. Photo to be retaken at launch.

I'm Larry Buckalew. I run a financial services firm and a title company — both regulated, both licensed, both with my name on the sign. The dealership is the third sign. It's the one I'd wanted to open for a long time, and Tampa Bay is the place to do it.

Here's what that means for you: there's no sales floor. No "let me check with my manager." You walk in, you talk to me, and we figure out what car fits your life and what you can actually afford. If I can't get you a fair deal, I'll tell you to walk — and I'd rather you come back in six months than leave today feeling squeezed.

We sell new, we sell used, we take trade-ins, and we work with lenders who finance all kinds of credit. The lot is small on purpose. It's small enough that I can keep an eye on every car we put on it, and small enough that I remember your name when you come back.

"If I can't get you a fair deal, I'll tell you to walk."
