A little more than 25 years ago, two old friends were having dinner together, reflecting on their years of working for new car dealers and how they would do things differently if they had their own dealership.

t. Bill Thornton and Wayne Hawksworth founded Brookside Motors with the goal of taking care of customers better than anyone else in the business. To acheive that goal, they surrounded themselves with quality people, offering great cars at the best prices and an unbeatable warranty. The rest has taken care of itself. Today, with over 110 cars, trucks, minivans and SUV's to choose from, Brookside has grown into one of the most reputable and largest preowned dealerships in York, Harrisburg and the rest of Central Pennsylvania. Brookside Motors has recently changed its name to Thornton Automotive Dover. Nothing else has changed, just the name!
