I have 13 years of Kia product knowledge and sales experience. Born and raised in Lake County. I currently live in Mentor with my wife, two kids and two dogs. I chose to work at Preston Superstore because they are a family owned and operated store. We believe that if you help people get what they want you will eventually get what you want.

Product Expert, Thomas Barrett and Kia Sales Manager Ed Smith went above and beyond finding the perfect SUV for me. They, and the rest of the staff were friendly, knowledgeable. Thomas took his time with m Smith went above and beyond finding the perfect SUV for me. They, and the rest of the staff were friendly, knowledgeable. Thomas took his time with me late Friday evening on a holiday weekend explaining the many features of the Seltos. Ed went so far as to the find the white car I wanted from another dealership and have it available for me to test drive. The entire process was fluid and enjoyable. Ed's question to me was, "What took you so long to come to us?" I loved my JEEP and wanted to stay with that brand. But I have to say, the Preston family has created a space in my heart with their offerings and KIA has become my new favorite! Thank you Thomas and Ed! More

Although I had a newer model Sorento, I found myself needing one with more towing capacity and the EX with the V6 was a great option (and had less miles). Not only did Tom work to structure a deal to help me with my trade but he also quarterbacked everything that was necessary for delivery: the front bumper was cracked and needed replaced, a tow hitch and harness needed installed, and the car needed a good detail. Tom oversaw the entire process and kept me informed at each step of the way! I started servicing my vehicle at Preston in 2017 and since then I have purchased two vehicles from them. The reason is people like Tom and his dedication to providing a great experience. More

Thomas Barrett is an exceptional salesperson. He works very hard to get to know his customers and their unique preferences and needs.
