Our History

We are very proud of our culture which largely comes from being a part of the Rydell Auto Group. The Rydell Auto Group was founded in 1954 and has grown into a group of over 85 stores in 17 states! Our Founder, Leonard Rydell, had many strongly held business and personal philosophies that served him well. These philosophies, known as “Leonardism’s”, help guide us through our daily business and personal decisions. Some of our favorite “Leonardism’s” are…


“Never take advantage of a customer, even if you can.”

“Put yourself in a position to take care of as many people as possible.”

“Seek excellence, and the rest will follow.”

Rydell's Values

Honesty & Integrity


We believe that all decisions are to be made with integrity. Leadership is setting good examples for others to follow, expecting as much from yourself as from others.

Individual Responsibility & Accountability


We believe that we are responsible for satisfying the needs of our customers for all our products and services. Individual accountability for our own performance and for the quality of our products will demonstrate to our customers that we are enthusiastic about them and really care.

Unconditional Dedication to Excellence


We believe that there is no place for mediocrity and halfhearted efforts. We accept personal responsibility for overcoming obstacles and being the very best. We actively choose to excel in every aspect of our personal and professional lives.

Rydell's Vision & Mission

Rydell’s Vision:

To be so effective that we are able to be helpful to others.


Rydell’s Mission:

  • Industry Leader: Our goal is to be an industry leader in providing unmatched quality automotive products and services.

Rydell's Philosophy

The Rydell philosophy is based on five key areas that we believe are critical to business success:



  • Customer Enthusiasm
  • Employee Satisfaction
  • Financial Performance
  • Market Effectiveness
  • Ongoing Improvement


Our philosophy holds that each area is of equal importance and we continually strive to reach a level of excellence in each area. However, in any planning or decision-making process, or in any situation of seeming conflict or contradiction among the five critical areas, Customer Enthusiasm will always carry the most weight.
