Leadership

David Alesso

General Manager

David is the General Manager at Vantage Auto Group. He’s the person making sure every deal moves smoothly behind the scenes—paperwork, timing, dealer coordination, and quality control—so customers get a simple, stress-free experience from “yes” to delivery. David has been in the auto world since the early 90s and learned firsthand what customers hate about the traditional process: confusion, runaround, and surprises at the finish line. At Vantage, his job is to remove all of that. If something needs fixing, David fixes it fast and fairly—because the easiest car deal is the one that’s done right the first time.

From start to finish, my experience was amazing. From first inquiring about cars and explaining the price range I wanted to stay within, everything was smooth, easy, and completely hassle-free. David was great throughout the entire process — knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely helpful without making me feel pressured. He made getting a car honestly one of the best experiences I’ve had. I truly appreciated how simple and stress-free he made everything. Highly recommend working with David if you’re looking for a great car-buying experience!

“Easy and pain free.” Say that about anything and it’s positively notable. Say that about car shopping and it’s pleasantly surprising. Thanks to David, Sebastian and team for their soup to nuts support.

Had my first experience using a broker through Vantage Auto, so I was a little nervous going into the process. Deborah made everything incredibly easy and stress-free. She was transparent, thorough, and always available to answer questions. Instead of wasting hours at dealerships, she found the exact car and color we wanted and negotiated a monthly payment within our budget. She was communicative throughout the entire process and truly wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Deborah, especially for women looking for someone trustworthy and knowledgeable. Thank you Deborah!

I reached out to several dealerships and it was a terrible experience. So I decided to reach out the Vantage and it was night and day. It was a great experience and very easy to work with. Elka did a tremendous job finding the exact vehicle I was looking for at a great price. They delivered the vehicle to my home and I couldn't as for more. Only place I will get all my vehicles from.
