The Ed Martin Automotive group was founded in 1955 by Ed Martin Sr. Ed began life as the first child born in the Indiana University Coleman hospital in Indianapolis, IN. His entrance into this world shows that his life was destined to be anything but typical.
Ed graduated from Manual High School as a football star and continued his football career at Butler University in Indianapolis. Ed's parents, Clarence and Nelly Martin were both attorneys; his mother was the first woman to pass the bar in Allen County, Indiana; his father was a Supreme Court Justice for the State of Indiana. In 1946, in Indianapolis, Ed, at the tender age of sixteen, purchased his first automobile with money he earned from delivering groceries and selling ice in his neighborhood. He sold his first car from his parent's front yard. His parents, being both professional and very proud people did not allow Ed to continue selling cars from their front yard. Ed approached the neighborhood "filling" station owner and negotiated a deal to sell his cars from the station. As sales grew, it became apparent he had to open his own used car lot, from which he continued selling and wholesaling used cars. In 1955, Ed Martin purchased his first new car dealership, an Oldsmobile dealership in Shelbyville, Indiana. In 1960 in Indianapolis, Ed Martin became the youngest Ford Automotive dealer in the entire United States. Over the following years, the Ed Martin Automotive Group has evolved into one of the top privately owned corporations in Indianapolis and top eighty corporations in Indiana.

Keith Collins is a wonderful addition to Ed Martin Ford. This was the second time that Keith came through when looking for replacement vehicle for us. He looked at all the items that we were looking for This was the second time that Keith came through when looking for replacement vehicle for us. He looked at all the items that we were looking for and after a large search found the "dream wish F150 2026 truck" . Keith always has smiles, wonderful thoughtfulness, and definitely makes sure he know what we're looking for. He gave us the different options available and makes sure his clients understand every step needed to achieve their goal. Keith utilized several departments at the Ed Martin Ford dealership to assist and answer our questions and help with taking care of our new purchase by contacting the finance department, service department , and understanding the Ford points award system We would highly recommend Keith to be the person contacted to help you find a vehicle that will be "perfect" for your needs. Keith is always available to answer any questions, explain the multiple vehicle options, and how to use them long after the purchase. More

He made the whole buying process easy and enjoyable instead of stressful like it can be at a dealership.
