Katahdin Motors is true family business

11 years ago

The Murphy family knows when people make a decision to buy a car, they expect and want a fair price with quality service. And, for 66 years, that is exactly what the Murphys have been doing to ensure their customers’ trust.
F. John Murphy and his family have been in business for three generations thanks to their commitment to quality service. At Katahdin Motors in Millinocket, the 11 full-time employees in sales and service are trained to provide a quality ownership experience. But, courtesy and fairness seem to come naturally. They are building inventory to provide a broader assortment of vehicles. And, if they don’t have it, they can usually order it.
New 2015s are arriving regularly at their dealership. If you’ve heard any buzz about the Cadillac ATS All-Wheel Drive luxury sedan or SRX crossover SUV, they will be able to show them to you. The 2014 Chevrolet Cruze has the largest rebate since it was introduced. New Chevrolets with air, automatic, power windows, and more start at only $13,920. Katahdin Motors wants your quality trade-in.
They know that some people prefer a quality program or pre-owned vehicle. So, they like to have a complete selection that’s compatible with everyone’s budget and personal requirements. The Murphy family says: “If you have a $10 part that’s keeping you from driving your $20,000 car, you don’t have a $10 problem. You have a $20,000 problem.”
Their professional technicians have the experience to keep your car running without giving you the runaround.
“We feel truly blessed to have been in business for as long as we have,” the Murphy family said. “The good Lord sees to it that we always have enough good customers who appreciate our efforts. In many instances we do business with entire families, from grandparents and parents through to the grandchildren.”
