    I've been in Sales for 21 years and operated 2 different stores. My goal has always been customer satisfaction.  Coming to Taylor's 9 years ago, I have found that it is all about customer satisfaction here!  The Taylor family makes it real easy for me to do my job and to take care of my customers before and after the deal.  Please call me for your first car or your next car!

    My name is Earl (sounds like a sit-com ha?); I'm originally from Nevada where I lived for over 35 years.  I was involved in construction work for a majority of my life where a twist of fate had me go in a different direction.  It is here I began my work in the automotive world as a Service dept. representative/salesperson (which by the way I learned that a good service dept. can help prevent some vehicle issues from occurring and that is what Taylor's Auto Max has.)  This is what brought me to Great Falls, MT and Taylor's Auto Max family.  I've been doing this now for over 12 years.  I find it very rewarding to assist customers with their vehicle needs and desires.  As well as, to know that I work for a dealership that has the same high values and ethics I have to provide to our local and military community.  So, if you're looking for a good-old down-to-earth person with no sales pressure tactics, come see me as I'll be glad to assist you with all of your vehicle wants and needs!

    I started in the car business in 1984 with the majority of my time spent as a service advisor and service manager.  Because of that, I feel that service after the sale is my top priority!  I feel that Taylor's Auto Max service dept. is one of the things that sets us apart from all the other pre-owned dealers in the state.  We don't operate out of a double-wide trailer and we offer the same advantages that you receive from a new car store with outstanding savings and selection.

    My interests are almost anything with a motor, all outdoor activities (except yard work), and spending time at the gym.

    Hope to talk to you soon!

    In my 3 short years in the car business, I've been happy to help provide customers with the kind of service that I would appreciate as if it was myself buying a vehicle.

    I believe in helping my customers to choose a car, truck, van or SUV to fit their needs at a fair price without the pressure people have come to expect from our competition.

    Customer satisfaction is our #1 priority before and after the sale at Taylor's Auto Max, and I'd be happy to help any of our friends and neighbors to find the vehicle you deserve!

    I moved to Great Falls 1 year ago from Wenatchee, WA.  I have visited this area numerous times and finally got the opportunity to move here.  I have worked in the RV industry most of my life.  The best part of that industry was getting to know my customers and their families from campouts and dinners.  I feel I bring that same atmosphere to the automotive business and working at Taylor's Auto Max makes it easy.  This is a place where family comes first!  I promise to make your next vehicle purchase a pleasurable one!

    Whether you're an old friend or a new acquaintance, I thank you for visiting our website and look forward to touching base with you.

    I have been at Taylor's AutoMax for about a year and a half.  I have met some very interesting people in that time and enjoy the opportunity to assist everyone with a vehicle search.  I have 5 children, 3 girls and 2 boys with 2 of my youngest daughters being twins.  Their ages are 17,19, 23 and 25.  I also have 2 grandchildren, 1 boy and 1 girl.  I spend most of my spare time running up to my cabin near Ovando, Montana where I enjoy fishing, hunting and the peace and quiet associated with being on the edge of the Bob Marshall Wilderness.  I help maintain the forested acerage that we have there throughout all the seasons which can be very extreme at times.  I guess you can say that just being in Montana can be fairly extreme in itself, but I suppose that's what  I love about being here.  We definitely see all 4 seasons and you have to try to recreate in all of them.  I snowski, waterski, snowshoe, cross country ski, snowmobile, hike, camp, swim, golf, pick huckleberries and a variety of other outdoor and indoor activities.  I enjoy good conversation around a campfire, table or on a couple of chairs in the middle of anywhere.  I have quite a few years of construction experience in my past and used to own and operate my own photo processing lab in the Bozeman area for about 12 years.

    I welcome any calls and will respond as soon as humanly possible.
    Thanks, have a great day and we'll be talking soon.

    Thank you for checking me out, prior to allowing me to assist you in your car buying adventure. For me, buying a car is exciting and fun, something that should be enjoyed and shared with someone that you get to know and is along for the ride.

    I have lived in Montana for 17 years, 3 more years and I will no longer be a tourist or so they say. My immediate family lives in Sun Prairie, Belt, Helena and Conrad. I have 4 awesome kids and my wife, Collette, that my world happily rotates around.

    I believe that my sales career started in the crib trying to convince my parents that a bottle was definitely a good purchase, in my book! Since then I have learned a few more of the important rules like Honesty, Integrity, Perseverance, Patience and most Important: Follow up/through!

    My passions include Montana Hope Project, Voices of Hope, AF & AM, 4H, The Exchange Club and at the top of my list the FFA, this program is a tremendous foundation building program for our youth.

    My reputation is good in the community and I recommend that you ask around. I want your business and your kids business, even if they are still trying to sell the bottle.

    Give me a call and I will introduce you to a very satisfying and comfortable sales experience.

    Thank you for your time!

    Respectfully,

    Dave Stinar
