A Family-Owned Jeep and Ram Dealer About 40 Minutes West of Waconia
Drivers in the Waconia area are about 40 minutes east of Hutchinson — and many of them choose to make the drive to Jay Malone CDJR. They tell us they come for a different kind of experience: you deal directly with the family that owns the business, nobody rushes you, and the same people are here to take your call after the sale.
Jay Malone CDJR has been Malone family owned since 2005. Hutchinson readers have voted us Best Place to Buy a Vehicle, Best Auto Mechanic, Best Place to Buy Tires and Best Auto Body Shop, and our founder Jay Malone was named the Hutchinson Area Chamber of Commerce’s 2021 Business Person of the Year.
A Family That Stakes Its Name on Every Sale
Jay, Jake, and Jordan Malone own and run Jay Malone CDJR, and they’re here every day. When you buy from us, you’re shaking hands with the family whose name is on the building — not a regional manager you’ll never meet again.
Waconia is lake country — Lake Waconia, historic Coney Island, Lake Waconia Regional Park, and a downtown that still feels like a small town on the edge of the metro. We’re a small-town family business too, and we treat every Carver County customer who makes the drive like a neighbor.
Shop Ram Trucks for Waconia and Carver County Drivers
Carver County drivers ask a lot of a truck — boat and camper trailers to the lake, contractor and farm work west of town, and long Minnesota winters. The Ram 1500 handles everyday hauling and towing with a comfortable ride, while the Ram 2500 and 3500 Heavy Duty step up for serious work, with an available Cummins turbo diesel.
Shop Jeep SUVs Built for Central Minnesota Roads
Jeep fits the way Waconia-area drivers live — weekday commutes toward the metro, weekends on Lake Waconia, gravel roads to the cabin, and snow-covered highways. The Wrangler and Gladiator bring legendary 4x4 capability, the Grand Cherokee pairs that capability with family comfort, and the Compass delivers Jeep confidence in a more compact size.
Shop Dodge and Chrysler
Need three rows and real towing? The Dodge Durango is a popular pick for Carver County families. Want the most practical way to haul kids, sports gear, and grandparents? The Chrysler Pacifica minivan is built for exactly that.
