Joe Gambino, Sr has had a passion for cars since he was a young boy. Growing up in Brooklyn, New York he was afforded many opportunities, but none compared to his dreams of one day owning his own car dealership.
In 1956 Mr. Gambino and his wife moved to Phoenix, AZ and purchased Bobby Unser Chevrolet in 1983. The store was renamed Joe Gambino Chevrolet shortly thereafter. For years, Mr. Gambino lived the life he had always dreamed of and enjoyed the privilege of being the furthest Chevrolet dealer west in the country. People flocked from miles around to visit Joe Gambino Chevrolet because of their honest, up-front business model: We're not completely satisfied until you're completely satisfied.At Joe Gambino's Gateway Chevrolet, we believe a trusting relationship with our customers is the best way to run a business. We don't just want one-time customers; we want you to purchase vehicles from us for generations to come. We want you to become a part of the Gateway Chevrolet family, and believe, just as Joe Gambino, Sr did, that a family run business is the best type of business.
A lot of things have changed over the years, but two things remain the same. A family owned business with over 30 years of experience in the Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale and greater Arizona area, and our philosophy: we're not completely satisfied until you're completely satisfied.
In 1997, Joe Gambino Chevrolet became Gateway Chevrolet and in January 2002, they moved from their old location on East Van Buren to a brand-new state of the art facility in the Avondale Automall located at 9901 W. Papago Freeway. The new location provided expanded service bays, comfortable customer areas and even more room for inventory; but most importantly, an ease of business that can only be translated into happy customers.Joe Gambino, Sr has a son Joseph (or Joe Jr.) Joe Jr's affinity for rare automobiles and to be just like his dad led him into the business at a young age. When Joe Jr was 23, he became a sales person at Gateway Chevrolet. His determination for success and perfection led him up through the ranks until 2010 when he became the General Manager of Gateway Chevrolet. Committed to selling cars at a great price and maintaining a positive relationship with the community, Joe Gambino, Jr. and Joe Gambino's Gateway Chevrolet have become a staple in the Phoenix and Greater Arizona area.

Great and not so great I went from being extremely happy to now a little discouraged. I brought my 2018 in for service after waiting awhile for the part due to the strike. O I went from being extremely happy to now a little discouraged. I brought my 2018 in for service after waiting awhile for the part due to the strike. Obviously the strike wasn’t the dealerships fault, and I am always so happy with the prompt friendly attention I am given here. My only issue with this whole thing is that not even a week later and it is malfunctioning again. So another trip to the dealership that I need to make arrangements and work my schedule around. I don’t understand why it wasn’t fixed correctly the first time. More

Service and Satisfaction I went to multiple dealers that day. They had cars I wanted, but none of them met the level of service that Al at Gateway provided. After shopping aro I went to multiple dealers that day. They had cars I wanted, but none of them met the level of service that Al at Gateway provided. After shopping around I ended up buying my new Silverado from here and was happy with the experience, AFter a car accident nothing is better than feeling that you are making the right choices in your new vehicle. Thank you guys! More

The entire staff was helpful as well as personable. In the service department Zak Sheldon our advisor was extremely helpful in taking care of another car which we were getting in good condition to give to our grandson. Both Robert and Zak are assets to GatewayChevrolet which will keep us coming back. More
