Ross Ford was purchased by Ray and Jim Ross in 1988. They relocated the dealership in 1991 and added Toyota to their lineup in 1998. A family owned business with an exceptional sales staff and service department, customers came in knowing they would get the service as if they were part of the family. Jim Ross and his commitment to stay on top of the rapidly changing industry from hiring women to top positions, embracing mobile technology and riding the social media wave led the dealership in the small town of Wynne, Arkansas to be named one of the 55 finalists for the 2015 TIME Dealer of the Year Award. Upon the sale Ross commented, "Over many years, I had been receiving emails and direct mail from George Chaconas of Performance Brokerage Services. I was considering retiring and I decided to call him. He immediately visited and we hit it off. I hired George based on his extensive experience, transparency, and honesty. George was able to identify the best buyer, Dobbs Equity Partners. Many thanks to George for his tenacity and perseverance. I am incredibly happy and starting to enjoy retirement! If you are like me and considering selling out, I would certainly recommend George Chaconas and Performance Brokerage Services."

I am incredibly grateful and honored to have helped Jim retire so he can spend more time with his family, travel and fish! I am delighted to help John Dobbs, Rick Greene and Mitch Ward grow their automotive dealership group. They were great buyers and a pleasure to work with. I wish everyone great success."
