More Than a Dealership
Quality vehicles, customer-first service, and a commitment to our community since 1974
More Than a Dealership
Since 1974, Kruse Motors has proudly served our communities by providing quality vehicles and exceptional customer service. What started as a local dealership has grown into a trusted automotive partner for thousands of families, while never losing sight of the values that built our reputation—teamwork, integrity, and treating every customer like family.
In recent years, Kruse Motors entered an exciting new chapter with the transition of ownership to the McKinzie family. While embracing innovation and growth, the commitment to personalized service and community involvement remains stronger than ever. Our goal is simple: to deliver on customer expectations in a timely manner while continually looking for ways to pleasantly surprise our customers with even greater excellence throughout the process.

Committed to Our Community
At Kruse Motors, we believe being a local dealership means being an active member of the community. Supporting the people and organizations around us isn't just something we do—it's part of who we are.
Our team is passionate about giving back through charitable donations, local partnerships, youth athletics, and community events that bring people together. We recognize that our success is only possible because of the loyalty and support of our customers, and we strive to pay that generosity forward whenever we can.
Supporting the Fight Against ALS
One cause that holds a special place in our hearts is the fight against ALS. Thanks to the incredible support of our customers and community, Kruse Motors proudly donated $20,100 in January 2026, with proceeds benefiting both the ALS Foundation and Never Surrender Inc.
This achievement reflects what can happen when a community comes together for a greater purpose. Every vehicle purchased, every customer who chose to support our efforts, and every team member involved helped make a meaningful difference for individuals and families affected by ALS. We are honored to continue supporting organizations that provide hope, advocacy, and resources for those facing this disease.
Investing in Our Community
Our owners believe leadership extends beyond the dealership. They have proudly served as hockey coaches for local teams in Marshall, helping mentor student-athletes and invest in the next generation through teamwork, discipline, and community involvement.
In addition, our ownership team serves as chair members of the Ducks Unlimited Board, supporting conservation efforts and helping preserve natural resources and wildlife habitats for future generations. We believe strong communities are built through service, leadership, and a willingness to give back.
Firecracker 300
Every July, Kruse Motors celebrates one of our biggest traditions—the Firecracker 300 Sales Event.
This month-long event challenges our entire team to achieve an ambitious goal: selling 300 vehicles during the month of July. More than just a sales event, the Firecracker 300 creates excitement throughout the dealership and the community while providing exceptional opportunities and savings for our customers.
It represents the dedication, teamwork, and customer-first mindset that define Kruse Motors. Every member of our staff works together to deliver an outstanding buying experience while striving to reach this exciting milestone.
Celebrating Our Customers
We believe our customers deserve to be celebrated, which is why we regularly host customer appreciation events, employee cookouts, and exciting giveaways throughout the year.
Over the years, we've awarded televisions, gift cards, and cash prizes, creating memorable experiences and expressing our gratitude to the people who continue to choose Kruse Motors. These events are our way of saying thank you for the trust our customers place in us.
Beyond giveaways, we've also organized large-scale food drives benefiting local shelters and participate annually in the United Way Radiothon. We are proud to partner with local colleges by providing loaner vehicles for coaches, supporting programs that strengthen our schools and communities.
At Kruse Motors, our goal is to make a positive impact not only through the vehicles we sell but through the relationships we build and the communities we serve. We are committed to leaving our hometowns stronger than we found them and creating a legacy that extends far beyond our showroom doors.
