Ford dealership closed

December 18, 2007

Vehicles from Hood River Chrysler Jeep Dodge on the Heights were moved Friday to 1802 12th Street after the local Ford dealership there was closed.

Treasa Hansen, general manager of Hood River Auto Group, said the Ford dealership was closed so the company could focus on Hood River Chrysler Jeep Dodge. Hansen said the 12th street location across from Rosauer’s Super Market will accommodate expansion into 2008 and beyond.

“We outgrew the old facility,” Hansen said. “We have grown so much that we needed a bigger lot.”

The 12th street location is almost five acres, Hansen said.

Hood River Auto Group has 48 employees, Hansen said. The company retained its Ford certified technicians and equipment.
