What a whirlwind right?

Lonnie Blackburn from Academy Cars.


I hope you and your family are safe and healthy. 
In light of current events, my team and I are doing everything, by way of technology and remotely, we can to help. That means helping people who still need and want to drive a Nicer, Newer® car. But we’re doing so in the safest way possible.

Here are some of the precautions we’re taking at Academy Cars:

We’re sanitizing everything—and we’re sanitizing frequently.

  • We’re staying up to date on all CDC guidelines and updating procedures accordingly.

  • We’re practicing social distancing, keeping contact to a minimum and distance to a maximum. Sorry, no handshakes or hugs!

  • Most importantly, we’re working remotely to help people drive safe and reliable cars they love.

  • That's right, we’re helping people find Nicer, Newer® cars they love over phone, email and text.

We know this is a tough time for everyone—we’re all in a tight spot. But we’re trying to serve people the best way possible.

So Here’s Some Good News:

Banks are still lending for people in all situations. And inventory levels are high, demand is low and interest rates were just relaxed.

We’re all in a tight spot. We’re here to help… safely, respectfully and remotely.

I’m Lonnie Blackburn from Academy Cars and I’m your dealer For The People®!

IM ON A MISSION TO PUT THE FUN BACK INTO BUYING A CAR AND BRING RESPECT AND RESPONSIBILITY TO THE CAR BUSINESS. IM FIGHTING FOR YOU. I'M CHALLENGING MY FELLOW DEALERS TO CLEAN UP THEIR ACTS AND PUT TRUTH AND HONESTY FIRST AND PROFITS SECOND.

BOTTOM LINE, YOU DESERVE TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT AND HONESTY WHEN BUYING A CAR. AND THAT'S WHAT I'M PROMISING. IM NOT IN BUSINESS TO SELL CARS TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK. I'M IN BUSINESS TO SELL CARS AND FIND GREAT PEOPLE WHO WILL STAY WITH ME FOR LIFE.

I WANT TO BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU... A RELATIONSHIP THAT ADDS VALUE TO YOUR LIFE... ONE BUILT ON MUTUAL RESPECT... A RELATIONSHIP THAT WILL END YOUR SEARCH FOR AN HONEST CAR DEALER AND FINALLY GIVE YOU A DEALERSHIP YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING BUSINESS FOR LIFE.
