Milking the Southwest for all it's worth, Earnhardt's Auto Centers (and its bull-riding founder) sell about 30,000 new and used vehicles each year. The company's eight auto dealerships in Arizona feature Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Jeep, Kia, Plymouth, Suzuki, and Volkswagen autos. The outlets also operate parts and service departments and offer financing. The company also sells new and used RVs. Earnhardt's Web site allows customers to "build" their next car online: Shoppers can select from a complete list of options before submitting it electronically. Established in 1951 by Tex Earnhardt, the company is family-owned and -operated.
