If you ask Used Car Sales Manager Don Stanley what he enjoys most about working at Chipman & Taylor Chevrolet, his answer is simple: the people.
From the family-owned atmosphere to the dealership's commitment to building lasting relationships, Don believes taking care of customers goes far beyond the day they drive off the lot.
"I really like working for a family-owned dealership," Don said. "It's more personable, and it's easier to take care of customers. I enjoy building relationships with them. Even after the sale, if they need anything, they know they can call me."
Don's automotive career began in 2008 as a detailer. After working his way through several sales positions, he joined Chipman & Taylor in 2023. Today, as Used Car Sales Manager, he oversees used-vehicle inventory, purchases vehicles from customers and at auctions, assists with financing, and handles many of the dealership's trade appraisals.
One of his favorite parts of the job is helping customers build long-term value.
"I see the same customers over and over," Don said. "I want them to come back in a good position so we can take their vehicle on trade and help them get into another one. We work hard to pay strong trade-in values because we're always thinking about the future."
That long-term mindset is rooted in honesty.
"We're not trying to hide anything," Don said. "We're fully transparent with our customers, and they really appreciate that. So do I."
When he's away from the dealership, Don and his wife enjoy life on their property near Genesee. Whether they're fishing, hunting, exploring the outdoors, visiting the Moscow Farmers Market, or spending time with their two dogs, they're happiest together. Don also has a passion for photography and videographyâespecially when it involves carsâalthough he'll quickly tell you his wife is the more talented artist.
Thank you, Don, for everything you do to make Chipman & Taylor Chevrolet a place where relationships matter. Your commitment to honesty, transparency, and customer care reflects exactly what our dealership is all about.
