Customers visiting the site will be greeted with the same “No Bull” style of service that has been part of Earnhardt Auto Centers since its beginning. Founder Tex Earnhardt started the company in 1951 with a Chandler-based Ford franchise. At age 21, he was the youngest-ever Ford franchise owner.

His first Earnhardt dealership truly grew one vehicle at a time — Tex needed to sell one car before he could afford to purchase the next one to sell. His trademark catchphrase, “That ain’t no bull,” endeared Tex to generations of Arizonans.

Today, Earnhardt Auto Centers represents 15 brands at 17 dealerships throughout the Valley. Make time to visit the updated San Tan Hyundai location soon. You’ll find a facility with comfort and aesthetics. As Tex would say, and that ain’t no bull!
