Allan Vigil began his automotive career with Ford Motor Company following his graduation from the University of Florida and military service. As a first lieutenant in the Army from 1967 to 1970, he served in Vietnam and was awarded a Bronze Star and an Army Commendation Medal for his actions. In 1971 he took a position with Ford as a field manager, and after several years he moved to the retail side of the business. He worked at a dealership first in Jonesboro and later in Macon; he was eventually asked to return to Jonesboro as a partner and rescue what was then a failing business. Several years later Mr. Vigil was offered the opportunity to buy out the owners and he did. To this day, Mr. Vigil is still President and owner, and is very much present and active in the day-to-day operations. AWARDS & ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
