We are family operated and owned and have been in business for 48 years. We own and run one dealership and it is our livelihood. Half our 30 employees have worked here over 20 years and some for 40 years. If you join us, we will treat you like family and provide you an opportunity for a lifetime job.
Our dealership is located on the mid-coast of Maine. Woolwich is a rural town, and everyone knows each other, we take pride in knowing our customers on a first name basis, providing 30 local jobs, and giving back to community.
We pumped gas here and serviced big trucks mostly tires, there was no showroom back then, just the main shop and a service counter Dick McElman was a manager and not an owner at the time. Dick McElman ended up buying the company after a few years and starting a Subaru franchise in 1973 and later Peugeot and Hummer. Dick worked 100-hour weeks for over 10 years that work ethic set him apart from competitors and helped the company grow. Jane, Maria, and Bruce joined the company and helped it grow one step at time.
We also had a handful of extremely talented and hardworking employees that shared Dick’s work ethic and helped the company’s success tremendously. Over 50 years we slowly added a show room, then added 3 large storage buildings one at a time, a parts department addition and eventually a recon department addition all one step at a time when we could afford it. Dick and his wife Maria and children Jane and Bruce all work hard and treat the Employees like family some of which worked here for over 40 years.

We hired Steve when he was in his early 20’s he was pretty green. We had our foreman train him and we also sent him to Subaru Factory Training. 5 years later, he is now a Certified Subaru Technician and one of the best mechanics in the shop. He of course received a huge pay increase for his efforts and certifications! We provide opportunities for growth for every employee.

Matt started working here as a parts department assistant. He is very smart, and we saw more potential. We started cross training him as an internet salesperson, salesperson, then eventually financing. He was able to grasp that very quick. We also needed coverage in service. We trained him to help running the service department. Now Matt is one of the most versatile employees we have, and he can work in any department which makes him very valuable. He of course received a huge pay increase for his versatility.
