History-
Tomlinson Motor
Company (TMC) was formed from an auto wholesale company. This is a company that
buys and sells vehicles only from dealer to dealer. Over a twenty-five year
period this company, David Tomlinson Wholesale (DTW),created the largest dealer
network in the Southeast. In 1995 TMC was created to establish an outlet for
the wholesale company. Only the nicest vehicles are selected for retail
inventory. Because of this relationship TMC provides only the finest used
vehicles at a lower price than other dealers, new car franchises or independent.
What we are about-
Our unique
source of inventory coupled with our low overhead allows us to deliver a
superior product at a lower price than our competitors. While most dealers feel
that increasing the money they spend on advertising will result in more sales
we feel that a higher advertising budget just results in a greater overhead. We
feel that sales ultimately come from word of mouth and customer satisfaction.
We choose not to spend thousands of dollars on advertising each month because
this at some point must be passed on to the customer. TMC does not want to sell
you your next vehicle. We want to sell you all of your vehicles. Already, 40%
of the vehicles that we sell are either to repeat customer or to direct
referral.
Company
information-
Our inventory is comprised
mostly of late model used cars and trucks, although we will inventory or find
almost anything. Priority is given to vehicles that are clean and can be
inventoried for the right price. The automobile business is transient for most
employees. Most of our staff
has been with us since the beginning. This gives our return customers assurance
that they will be treated in the same manner as they were the first time and we
just happen to know how to hire the best people. Everyone that works at TMC
understands and applies our long-term philosophy of turning our buyers into
repeat customers. TMC has a convenient location at
3580 North Main St., Gainesville, FL 32609. From this location we can
deliver vehicles to and from dealers and individuals all over the Southeastern United States.
