I was raised and graduated high school in Washington. I currently live in Eureka with my wife Heather. I have one son named Jaden. Outside of work, I raise angus cattle as my wife runs a farm-to-table beef business which keeps us "mooving". I am an avid sports fan and enjoy watching the Chicago Bears and Iowa Hawkeye college sports. I have been with the Uftring Auto Group since March of 1992. At Uftring Chevrolet, there's always something new every day and I always enjoy meeting new people. Integrity, reputation and honesty are what I like most about the Uftring Auto Group organization. My favorite vehicles to sell are Silverados and Corvettes! The excitement and smile on a customer's face after taking delivery of a Corvette is unmatched and so rewarding. Witnessing a customer get into a new Silverado opens the door for our team to meet some of the most genuine and kind people. Each customer of mine can expect to be treated like family. A promise made is a promise kept.

Finance guy is overly pushy and was telling me how bad the NEW car I was buying would be down the road, pulling out repair bills that he had conveniently ready to show me. The guy actually had me second g the NEW car I was buying would be down the road, pulling out repair bills that he had conveniently ready to show me. The guy actually had me second guessing my decision to purchase, by giving me doubts about Chevy quality. Everything was fine up to this point, but all I remember is the incredibly rude finance guy. I won’t be back to this dealership to buy a car. Dealer manager empathized and apologized for my experience, but reading other reviews, I see things haven’t changed. Too bad, as I’d prefer to keep my business close to home. More

Best experience all around! My wife and I were searching around for a Equinox and drove a few used ones around with the help of Nick Cramer. When we brought one of the used ones My wife and I were searching around for a Equinox and drove a few used ones around with the help of Nick Cramer. When we brought one of the used ones back from a test drive we visited with Joe Knapp and Nate Schneider as well and we went through comparing a brand new versus used equinox and with discounts and incentives we walked out of there with a brand new one instead and this is the 3rd vehicle i have purchased through this dealer and will continue to keep going back! The service they strive to present is excellent!!! More

Randy worked very hard to loca Randy MacDonald made our recent purchase of a 2018 Chevy Equinox AWD Premiere 2.0T extremely enjoyable and very easy. Randy worked very hard to locate the exact vehicle in the exact color combination we wanted and then proceeded to give us the best deal possible. Additionally, Randy did an excellent job in explaining all of the many features on this vehicle and told us to just stop by if we had any additional questions. Ken Miller made the paperwork very easy to complete, the easiest of any car purchase we have made. We received many thanks and appreciation from the dealership's general manage, Joe Knapp, and have continuously been treated exceptionally well here. We also purchased all weather floor mats, cargo mat and rear splash guards for the vehicle through the dealership's parts department and as always were given exceptional service by John Haase. We very highly recommend this dealership for both sales and service! More

THE BEST We purchased our last 7 trucks, one used car and a complete mechanical rebuild of our Corvette from Uftrings and could not be more satisfied with the We purchased our last 7 trucks, one used car and a complete mechanical rebuild of our Corvette from Uftrings and could not be more satisfied with the way we are treated. They are professional and upfront in their dealings with no pressure applied to buy. The service we have had over 20 plus years has been excellent. For the last four vehicles we have dealt with Randy MacDonald. He has helped with selection and options by explaining what is available and what the associated option costs are. At no time did we feel pressured to make a purchase. Randy goes out of his way to assist and make the purchase as painless as possible. We have no plans to purchase a vehicle anywhere in the future but Uftrings and to continue to deal with Randy. Thanks also to Joe Knapp and Ron Uftring for the assistance with our last purchase. More
