MedVed1At Medved Autoplex we strive to serve the Colorado and Rocky Mountain region's every automotive need. From purchasing a new or pre-owned vehicle, to servicing it, and even repairing or renovating it in our renowned body shop, there is no reason to go anywhere else-except maybe to buy gas.
 
We consider ourselves a family at Medved Autoplex. The corporation has been locally owned and operated for over 70 years now. What started out as a single point Chevrolet dealership is now a conglomeration of eight different franchises (Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Buick, and Suzuki) distributed between two easily accessible dealerships.
 
MedVed2Just off the I-70 and I-25 corridors, anyone located in the Denver Metro area or simply crossing through the state is sure to pass us. Our new inventory includes everything from entry-level cars for people on a budget to burly work trucks or luxury vehicles-and don't forget about our excellent stock of pre-owned vehicles.
 
At Medved we "sell the best and wholesale the rest" to ensure that every certified pre-owned vehicle we send off the lot is quality, but above all safe.
 
While the structure and identity of the organization has evolved over the years our commitment to customer service and relation has remained the same. That's probably why over 70% of our business comes from repeat or referred customers. Many current employees even started out as customers themselves once-upon-a-time.
 
MedVed3At Medved we know buying a car is a big deal-often times the second biggest investment a person will make. Therefore according to President and CEO, John Medved, "When you come to do business at Medved, it should be like Disney World for adults."
