Chevrolet Dealership Near Me

Buying a car is a significant purchase for just about everyone — even leasing a car is a multi-year commitment. When you’re considering this kind of purchase, you should always know the people you're working with and what kind of reputation they have as a dealership. Ryan Chevrolet of Minot is proud to have served the people of Minot and the surrounding area since 1973, and we continue to do so. That isn’t something we take lightly, and we work hard every day to ensure we live up to our reputation and deliver the highest level of customer service possible.

Serving Minot Since 1973

We’ve been a part of Minot’s automotive legacy dating back to 1973, but it actually started before that. Our heritage goes back to when James Ryan began his career in the auto industry at Chevrolet Motor Division in 1945. Ryan stayed there for 12 years and learned a great deal about the industry before leaving in 1957 to join North Dakota auto-legend Leonard Rydell. Ryan became part of the team at Rydell Chevrolet in Grand Forks as the General Sales Manager and worked his way up to General Manager, building on what he had learned at Chevrolet.

After nearly 17 years as part of the Rydell team, Ryan saw a new opportunity and moved with his wife to Minot, where he took over Auran Chevrolet. Renaming it Jim Ryan Chevrolet, Ryan used everything he had learned in his previous 30 years in the industry to ensure the dealership thrived under his leadership. Jim Ryan Chevrolet became known for its commitment to offering the highest level of customer service in North Dakota. Ryan had a simple philosophy: to serve the people of Minot with honesty and integrity in order to earn their trust and build a business based on treating customers with respect.

Due to this focus on customer service, Ryan was named a regional finalist for Time Magazine’s National Dealer of the Year in 1986. More than a decade later, after 27 years of building his dealership, Ryan retired and left the daily operation of his business in the hands of one of his daughters: Kathleen Gaddie. Gaddie has gone on to build the Ryan Family Dealerships with additional locations, including Ryan Honda and Ryan Cadillac of Minot, while Ryan Chevrolet of Minot remains true to her father’s vision. In 2010, Gaddie was named a national finalist for Time Magazine’s Dealer of the Year award, demonstrating her commitment to customer service and upholding the James Ryan legacy. In other words, you can certainly search for “Chevy dealer near me” and hope to find a trustworthy dealership, or you can turn to a longtime proven and professional place, Ryan Chevrolet.

Community Involvement Beyond The Sales Lot

Here at Ryan Chevrolet, we take pride in being a part of the Minot community and show it through a large series of events we host throughout the year designed to give back to the place we call home. Starting things off in the dealership, we ask employees to bring in $5 or a donation item as part of the Jeans Day Fund/Collection. In exchange, they get to wear jeans on Friday every month and choose the charity that benefits from the donations. Some places we have donated to include:

• Souris Valley Animal Shelter
• Bishop Ryan Catholic School so they could get books for students
• OpenMIND (a mental health resources organization) to help build a Room to Breathe for the teachers at a local school
• Dakota Elementary School PTA for a teacher appreciation event
• Minot Area Homeless Coalition

Our programs don't even remotely stop there, though. Our Annual Breast Cancer Awareness Pancake Breakfast involves the collection of donations throughout the month of October, then on a Saturday morning, we host a pancake breakfast, and all of the proceeds and items donated are given to a local cause, such as the Trinity Health Cancer Exercise Rehab Program. In 2021, we raised $14,000 and hope to see that number increase the longer we do this program.

We’re also big supporters of students and teachers in our area! Each year as part of the West Dakota Chevy Dealers, we present local high school juniors and seniors with scholarships to help support their educational endeavors. We are a drop off site for the Minot Sunrise Rotary's Fill the Bus school supplies drive to help students in need.

Not forgetting the amazing individuals who work tirelessly to provide quality education to our children, we host a Teacher Appreciation Night at the start of every school year. Teachers and school staff from the area are invited to enjoy a free meal, play games, and win prizes, and for each school staff attendee, we donate a dollar amount to their specific school. We also accept nominations for the Teacher of the Month and randomly select a Teacher of the Month every month from August to April, with a grand prize winner chosen in May. Winning teachers receive a backpack full of supplies, a certificate, a coupon for free tire rotations, a cookie bouquet, and we coordinate a pizza party for their class. We are dedicated to seeing our community thrive, and we do as much as we can to see that it does beyond just providing amazing Chevy vehicles.

Discover Our CPO Chevy Models

Many of our customers are interested in saving money but are also concerned about the uncertainty of choosing a used vehicle, which makes a Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) model perfect: you pay less than you would for a new car but get fantastic peace of mind. Every CPO Chevy must be within the last six model years, and it cannot have more than 75,000 miles on it––plus, it has to pass a rigorous 172-point vehicle inspection to ensure it is of the highest quality.

When you choose a Chevy CPO model, you get to enjoy a pair of factory warranties: a 6-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty and a 12-month/12,000-mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty. This means you can rest easy knowing your vehicle is in top condition, and if anything goes wrong, you’re covered by a terrific warranty. No other used models give you this kind of confidence on the road, which makes CPO vehicles very popular, so act fast if we have a CPO Chevy you want.
