Ep. 16 – Jim Click, Jr. – Jim Click Automotive Team

Jim Click, Jr. moved to Tucson in 1971 to turn around a struggling Ford dealership.  Since then, Jim has become one of Arizona’s premiere car dealers and philanthropists. He has dealerships for Ford, Lincoln, Dodge, RAM, Chrysler, Jeep, Mazda, Nissan, Kia, and Hyundai in Tucson, Green Valley, and also in Orange County, CA.

In our conversation, Jim shares the story of how he ultimately began in the car business after growing up in Oklahoma and earning a business degree from Oklahoma State University (where he was a Scholastic All-American football player, captain of the football team, and made the Dean’s Honor Roll every semester).  Among other topics, he recounts the stories of how two men, Holmes Tuttle and Jim Click, Sr., influenced him at various stages of his life and taught him valuable lessons which serve him today.
