I have worked in various capacities within this dealership for over 40 years. I first started working here in the summers while attending high school and continued to work part time while attending college. My brothers and I have been around this business all our lives and we are completely dedicated to our customer's satisfaction. If ever a customer has a problem or question they can find myself or my brother's offices on the showroom floor. We are accessible for all our customers. Away from the dealership I enjoy spending time with my family, staying fit and playing golf.

Hi! My name is Ted Holmberg and this is my 30th year at Bud Kouts Chevrolet. The honesty and integrity of this store has allowed me to stay here and build a great business, and meet and make friends with many wonderful people. I'm married and have one child who recently made me a very proud grandpa. In my spare time I enjoy golf, dinner with friends and now spoiling my granddaughter, Mallory. I would enjoy the chance to have you stop by and see just why the people who buy and service here continue to come back year after year.
