    "Good people serving good people since 1897. That was the first thing I saw when I went into Mr. Byers office to interview many years ago. The Byers family lives up to this motto everyday. We hire the best people to make sure our customers are treated better than any other car dealer around. Consumers can service their cars anywhere, buy a car from anyone, and purchase their parts from many places. We try everyday to make sure we do each of these things better and that you have a great experience doing business with Geo Byers Sons."

So stop by and let our staff show you how enjoyable the car buying experience should be."
