We were proud to partner with the Freedom Alliance and U.S.Bank, delivering a 2019 GMC Acadia to U.S. Navy Seaman (ret) Ryan Blackwell in honor of his courageous service to our country. At delivery, our team members recognized Blackwell and presented him with three years of free maintenance to the vehicle. The presentation was made possible by the “Driven to Serve” initiative led by the Freedom Alliance and U.S. Bank.

“We are so grateful to U.S. Bank and the Freedom Alliance for making this program possible. U.S. Bank helps veterans around the United States get reliable transportation. They go a step above to give back to the community. We are honored to be able to host such an impactful event.” – Maureen Bierman, Director of Marketing, Step One Automotive Group

We will continue to prioritize community initiatives and foster service-oriented company culture, both in our dealerships and throughout the communities where we live and work!
