    888-696-9185

    Born in Oklahoma City, Chris has been in and around the automobile business all his life. His Grandfather and his Grandfather's brother started a used car business in downtown Oklahoma City. It wasn't long before his grandfather moved to Duncan, Oklahoma and opened his first new car dealership with Chris's father. The Oldsmobile/Cadillac dealership is where Chris would fall in love with the automobile business. Every day after school he would ride his bike to the dealership just to hang out with his father and all the employees at the dealership. After attending General Motors Institute in Flint, Michigan and Northwood Institute in Dallas, Texas Chris made the automobile business his full-time focus.

    Chris broke off from the family business and moved to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in the early 1980's. Working his way up through the ranks of several dealerships, he found himself as the General Manager of Superior Ford in Kansas City, Missouri. It wasn't long after that Chris moved back to Florida and started working with the Greenway Automotive Group. Just short of two years with the Greenway Group came the opportunity to buy into his first New Car dealership. Chris is now Owner/Managing Partner of the Carnival Kia Automotive Group here in Nashville.

    Chris enjoys boating, skiing, motorcycle riding but most of all loves spending time with his wife, Dessie and four children Brittany, Bailey, Chase and Chandler.

    He often says "I can't imagine living anywhere but right here in middle Tennessee, I love the people, seasons and country."

    Hi, my name is Tracy Davis. I have lived here in Franklin, Nashville & Mt Juliet Tennessee my whole life and wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world. I am a single parent and fill very blessed. It is very challenging and of course never a dull moment. I attend The Peoples Church and love it there.

    I previously worked for Honda for twenty four years in sales and management. I came to KIA because of the Quality which absolutely blew me away! It is far superior to anything in it's class and even with cars that cost much more. Also what I love about KIA is all of the new Styling and Designs which are very aggressive and innovative. Then on top of that KIA gives us the best warranty in the business 10yr ? 100k. They put that warranty on the KIA's because they can and that's putting you money where your values are!

    I am very impressed with Mr Bostick and Kia's vision for the future, so with all that said it was very easy to move to KIA. It has been nothing less than Fantastic.....
