Hi, my name is Clay Shinkle! I am a sales manager at Schomp Ford. I started my career with Schomp back in 2013 at our BMW location. I have also worked with our Schomp Honda & Schomp MINI stores. I have done a little bit of everything from cleaning cars to product knowledge. I am a Colorado native. When I am not working, I spend time with my two Australian Shepherds named Auto and Axl. Otherwise, find me underneath the hood of my cars. I want my customers to know that I have years of experience. I am excited to be working with you and can't wait to show you what sets us apart from the competition.

At Schomp Ford, we have proudly operated as a one-price store for over 30 years. This commitment ensures fairness and consistency for all our customers.

We regret any inconvenience this may have caused you. Regarding the deposit issue, we acknowledge that there may have been a misunderstanding regarding its refundability. We will certainly review our communication practices to ensure that such misunderstandings are minimized in the future. Again, our business model is setup to apply the same deposit process to each client interaction. Your feedback on this matter is invaluable to us, and we will take the necessary steps to address it internally.

Logan was excellent in keeping me updated on trucks coming into the dealership. I can’t believe he found me a platinum f450 when there isn’t any around. I can’t thank him enough. I am beyond happy. More
