Hello! I’m David O’Daniel, born and raised here in Fort Wayne. I attended Bishop Dwenger High School, Ivy Tech, and Hope College. I have actually worked here since I was a child. I started out cleaning drains and picking up trash. I have a strong passion for the car business, and the people at O’Daniel all share the same drive, and have a great amount of respect for others. I pride myself in honoring our family tradition that my Grandfather started, by putting our customers first. I am the 3rd generation in the car business it is a privilege to follow in the same steps my grandfather and my father took to get to where they are today. I’m looking forward to keeping our family business alive and well with holding myself to our high standards of ethics and accountability. In my free time I enjoy playing golf, being outdoors, going to the gym, and spending time with my friends and family.

It has been my pleasure to have had a chance to successfully deal with Pat Garrett. Since I live in Southern Indiana, which is quite a hike from Fort Wayne, there were some logistical challenges t successfully deal with Pat Garrett. Since I live in Southern Indiana, which is quite a hike from Fort Wayne, there were some logistical challenges that had to be addressed. Pat and the O'Daniel Team worked hard to maintain communication and were friendly, helpful and sincere throughout the entire process. At no time did I feel pressured or bullied into buying a vehicle. While all car dealerships want to make sales, this entire experience made me feel as though I, not just the sale, was actually important to them and that my satisfaction was at the top of their priority list. The entire trade process was made easy and Pat was gracious enough to meet me in Indianapolis on a weekend to meet my sensitive time constraints since it would have been impossible to make it that far on a work week. While meeting to complete the deal, Pat Garrett took the time to engage with my wife and I which made the car-buying procedure feel more like a friendly meeting, not just another transaction. I actually felt as though the people who worked with me cared about us on a personal level. Upon returning home, very satisfied with an awesome Ram Bighorn Truck, I received a text message making sure all was going well with an assurance that all I had to do was pick up the phone and any concern or need I had would efficiently and successfully be addressed. I realize that my next vehicle is far in the future ( just ask my wife! ) but, when that time comes, though distance will still be a factor, I will look to Pat and the O'Daniel Dealership first. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! More

The entire team was excellent and I would highly recommend O'Daniel to anyone, more so Patrick himself. He made the car buying experience, not so "car buying". David in finance was also a pleasure to work with and made the process very easy. Very descriptive and informative. More

I previously wrote out a really long review about my experience and how awesome Jeff Cearbaugh and David Odaniel are but it got lost in here somewhere. Bottom line is the dealership treated me very fai experience and how awesome Jeff Cearbaugh and David Odaniel are but it got lost in here somewhere. Bottom line is the dealership treated me very fair and I’d go back in a heartbeat. Jeff and David know their stuff, and work with you to get you what you want and what is right for you. Jeff was easy to work with and I would just as easily have a beer with him after work as I would buy a car. David makes you feel like family. Two great guys at an exceptional dealership. More
