December 2008 found me
facing unexpected car repairs that totaled more than my car was worth.
I didn't know what I was going to do about a
vehicle so I called my friend, Byron, from the repair shop and told
him what I was up against. Without hesitation he told me, "Get
here with your car and we'll help you." When I arrived, Byron
already had my financing approved and had several vehicles for me to
look at that were in my budget. What started out as a very emotional
and stressful day, ended with me driving home in a 2008 Chevy Trailblazer.
I felt very blessed knowing that I had a friend in the car business
that I could TRUST! Working full time at a children’s home, I didn’t
have time (nor did I want to) to go from dealership to dealership to
shop for a vehicle. It was so refreshing to be dealt with in an honest,
upfront manner and to not have to go through the typical games and run-around
that happen at other dealerships.
I have known Byron for over 20 years. He has always had a giving heart
and a desire to be used by God to bless others.

To borrow a phrase, buying a used car is like buying a box of chocolates…you
never know what you’re going to get. It is a risky business, but
Byron helps minimize those risks! Growing up in a preacher’s home
and attending a Christian college doesn’t always guarantee a person’s
character. However, from all I’ve seen of Byron, his life is a portrait
of integrity and character…..a man who is as good as his word, who
wants to provide for his family and invest in the family of God to reach
lost and hurting people!

We have known Byron Britain for about 20 years. We have purchased cars
from him three different times.
Our most recent contact with Byron was in March of '09. We were in
need of a better/newer car. My husband contacted him and told him what
we
were looking for. It wasn't long until he contacted us, sent pictures
and descriptions of what he had found and gave us some choices too as
to colors etc. He searched all over the U.S. to find the perfect vehicle
for us. We didn’t want the expense of new but needed low mileage,
with a manageable payment. Compared to the price we found in our area,
we saved thousands! On May 19th we flew to Dallas, TX spent the night,
signed papers, took a cruise around the block got some pointers on the
bells 'n whistles of our “new” Cadillac. With a hug 'n goodbyes,
we left for Colorado, then back to Idaho and on to Portland, Oregon.
What luxury!! We love the heated seats and steering wheel, the a/c seats,
the duel heat/air conditioning controls, the electric sunroof and windows
and the navigation comes in very handy with as much traveling as we do.
This is a fine chariot! Many times when my husband and I are in our car,
one will turn to the other and say "I am so glad we got this car,
Byron really gave us a good deal". Byron is a fine, honest, gentle,
caring and dedicated young man. But he's no 'milk toast' either, he is
a fine business man. He also has a very tender heart toward God, missions
and the ministry. God has blessed him with a beautiful wife, Misty and
two beautiful brilliant children. We will be forever grateful.
We encourage you to let God bless you through this man!

I pastor the Olathe Assembly of God church in Olathe, Colorado. We were
in need of a newer 15 passenger van. I had been looking around here and
was not having much luck finding what we needed. We wanted a van that
was in very good condition at a reasonable price and still under factory
warranty. I called Byron and he helped us tremendously.
I was able to deal directly with Byron and did not have to go through
anyone else. He led us step by step through the whole process very effectively.
If we had any questions, he answered them quickly. One of the things
I really appreciated was that he was in no way pushy; he was very patient
with us and considerate of our needs.
Byron arranged for the delivery of the van even though we were in different
states.
The whole process was an easy, no hassle purchase and we saved thousands.
The entire congregation was happy with it. The price was unbeatable.
When our church or I want to get a new vehicle the first thing I will
do is call Byron.
I’ve known Byron since we were kids. Byron has always had a heart
for supporting missions. He has always had a generous heart and truly
wants God to use his business to bless others. Principals, and values
are not usually associated with the car business, but I would encourage
anyone who wants to deal with a person of Integrity, to contact Byron!

I bought my last car from Byron Britain at Britain Chevrolet. My experience
could not have been better.
I called Byron, told him what I was looking for. He later sent me an
email with photos of the car he had found. It exceeded the criteria I
had requested. The price was excellent. I agreed to buy it. He had it
shipped in from out of state, put it through his own shop to make sure
it was in perfect condition, and serviced it completely. It was three
years old, had only 23,000 miles on it but a brand new car could not
have been any nicer.
I went down and picked it up when it was ready. He took my vehicle in
as a trade, did all the necessary paperwork, found a good source of financing
for me, as well as a “legitimate” extended warranty program.
The transaction could not have been simpler, cleaner or more professional.
I know Byron and his family and have absolute confidence in his integrity,
and genuine motivation to “bless” God’s people and
to advance His kingdom. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending
him and his business. You will not regret choosing Byron and Britain
Chevrolet for your next car trade.

I have known Byron for nearly 20 years. During those years I have noticed
that there are two admirable qualities that mark his character. First,
he is a man of integrity. Growing up in a pastor's home, he learned the
value of honesty and the value of living the faith that he claims with
his words. Byron is one of the few men I have met in my life that I would
absolutely trust without reservation. Second, I have seen that he is
a man of generosity. I have seen firsthand how he not only brought his
tithe to the Lord, but gave liberally to the great cause of Christ's
kingdom. The mission of God is close to his heart. I know this because
Jesus said that wherever your treasure is, your heart would follow. Byron
has consistently invested in the Kingdom of God and I'm quite confident
that he will continue to be a trustworthy steward of all that God gives
him.

My wife went back to work as a school teacher and we needed a second
car. Byron searched for and found a car right here in Florida that
met all of our needs. We looked around and the deal Byron offered us
could not be beat. We got a great car at a great price with no hassle.
During the many years that I was a support based missionary, Byron and
his wife Misty were faithful supporters. I know that they currently support
many missionaries and they have a heart to do even more as God blesses
their business.

We have
known Byron Britain for 20 years and have seen him doing amazing
things in his life. We believe God has blessed Byron in everything
he touches because he is upright and honest with people in all he
does. I remember back in the early 90'S we were looking for a new car.
The first person (not place) that came to mind was Byron.
We knew
he was selling cars in Jerome, Id. So that is where we headed. We knew
Byron would give us the best price around, why? Because we
knew we could trust him. He took great care of us then and throughout
the years as we have looked for vehicles. It's so nice to
know there are people like Byron Britain that want to help the customer
and see them drive off the lot with no regrets.

Britain, I want to thank you for your excellent service to me recently
in the purchase of a new vehicle through your dealership. It was a
pleasure to work with someone who has integrity, a desire to help the
customer to find and purchase the vehicle best for them, and for your
personal kindness in the process. The whole team at Britain Chevrolet
made our experience the best I have ever had in purchasing a vehicle.
We look forward to doing business with you in the future and I just
wanted to express my thanks for a job well done!

“I was looking for a specific vehicle that I wasn’t
able to find in stock at other dealerships. I was looking for a late
model
low mileage car. I contacted Byron and even though he owns a Chevrolet
dealership, he was able to find exactly what I was looking for; a Mercury
Grand Marquis. Not only was it the color and trim level I wanted, it
only had 400 miles on it! For all practical purposes, it was a brand
new car. The best part was the price. Going through Byron, I was able
to save substantially over what a new one would have cost. The whole
process was the easiest car buying experience I have ever had.
I found it refreshing to deal with a car dealer who was honest and straight
up front with me. When I am ready to purchase again, I will most assuredly
go through Byron and I highly recommend anyone who is in the market for
a vehicle to contact him”.

As a campus minister, we challenge our students to view their university
campus as their mission field. It is one of our greatest joys to see
students graduate and take that same missions heart into their respective
marketplaces. This is one quality I truly appreciate about Byron. He
is doing this very thing! He recognizes that the Lord has placed him
within the auto industry in order to make a difference for Christ.
I
am privileged to say that I have been a recipient of His Commission.
I referred a friend to Byron who later got a great deal on a Tahoe.
A few days later my wife and I saw the commission from this sale
in our
missions account. It was a win-win for us, my friend and for Byron.
What an incredible way to further God’s Kingdom by turning a sales commission
into a means to fulfill His Commission. Thanks Byron for helping us reach
university students for Christ. You are making a difference! Don’t
buy another vehicle until you talk to Byron first!

We purchased our car from Britain Chevrolet
after talking with Byron Britain and describing what we wanted and
the price range. We got a call back a week later and they completely
exceeded our expectations. They are honest, strait forward, and they
got it to us in Idaho very quickly.
It is nice to know there is someone out there like Byron who is willing
to let God use his business. We highly recommend anyone who is in the
market for a vehicle to contact Byron. You can deal directly with him,
like we did, get a great deal, and support us all at once. It’s
a win-win for everyone!
Thank you Britain Chevrolet!
