Dan Vaden History

WE KNOW YOUR TIME IS VALUABLE.

"I am just an old used car salesman..." His eyes twinkled, his smile was genuine and he never forgot where he started. That was Dan Vaden, the heart and soul of The Vaden Automotive Group. Having graduated from the University of Florida, he began his career in the car business as a used car sales trainee in Jacksonville, Florida. After 15 years, he had worked his way up to General Manager and part-owner. So, when General Motors approached him about an opportunity in Savannah, he packed up his wife and two young daughters and started Dan Vaden Chevrolet on an old dairy farm. That was 1968.

We think we provide some of the best customer service around, and we aren't the only ones who think that either; our customer service won us the Better Business Bureau's Diane Wahrman Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics. We also received the Time Magazine Quality Dealer award in 1992.
