2022 National Dealer of the Year Award
Autoplex Restyling Centers of Loveland, Colo.
Josh Elliott, owner
Eastman presented this year’s National Dealer of the Year Award to Josh Elliott, owner of Autoplex Restyling Centers of Loveland, Colo.
For more than 20 years, Elliott and the Autoplex team have been outfitting vehicles with custom accessories to meet customers’ needs.
Anticipating changes within the industry, AutoPlex has shifted its wholesale strategy by investing considerable resources into on-site installations. And when faced with fewer available installers, Elliott addressed the challenge by training and developing skilled installers through an apprentice program of his own design.
“Both are success-generating examples of next-level service with a focus on an exceptional experience,” states a company release. “It’s due to this commitment to innovation and the customer that makes Josh Elliott and Autoplex Restyling Centers one of the very best in the LLumar SelectPro dealer network—and now our National Dealer of the Year for 2022.”
