Tiger Cox - Owner/Buyer

417-865-2277 -

Tiger started working with his dad at the age of 4. He played in the cars while his father would recondition them. By the age of 7 he was driving by himself. While his father was pursuing another career he had a natural sales ability develop.  He started his first business at 21 opening a tanning salon in Springfield. The tanning business was a fun but he would soon find out his true calling. He went to work for a new car franchise and one year later in 2002 he asked his father to help him start his own dealership. Well as they say the rest is history. He was a third generation car dealer working beside his father. While the car business required a lot of traveling a friend invited him to fly to an auction. He was hooked! Shortly after he bought his first airplane and got his pilot license. Now he fly's all over the country buying trucks for the company. His drive and dedication to deliver quality trucks for our customers keeps a edge from other dealerships. Although he does most of the buying he still loves to meet our customer base and build lifetime relationships. He is always a phone call away for whatever you may need.

Buzz Smith - Sales & Customer Service

417-865-2277 -

Buzz has been a wonderful addition to our team since 2015. He started out helping us with transportation across the country and has now settled into a Sales & Customer Service role as we saw how wonderful he is to deal with. If you like a straight forward, "no bologna" approach to sales; Buzz is your man. He has lived in the Ozarks his entire life (since the time of the dinosaurs) and holds true to traditional midwestern values. Buzz and his wife are always good for tasty BBQ and great parties!! You may actually already know Buzz from one of his prior endeavors in Scuba Diving, City of Springfield works, or Railroading. He will welcome your calls and visits to our store with a smile and a good story.
