About Kunes CDJR of Mount Carroll
Kunes Country has been a part of the Mt. Carroll Community since 2005 - purchasing the Chrysler & Ford franchise in the spring, and the GM store later that year. We're thrilled not only to be a part of this town, but also to have so many of our team members be with us since the day we arrived. Our staff has access to all of the inventory in the Kunes Country family... you can test drive any one of thousands of vehicles in stock - we'll bring them to you. Kunes Country Auto Group is a family owned group with Christian values that is seen and felt in our dealerships. We strive to be an asset to every community we serve - first as being a fair and respected employer, second by serving our customers well in with all of their needs, and finally as a member of the community in service. Stop in and see why Kunes Country is different than your average dealership

Our Roots: Where It All Began
In 1996, Gregg Kunes embarked on a vision in Delavan, Wisconsin, birthing the very first Kunes dealership. Today, Kunes Auto Group proudly stands tall with over 40 dealerships across the Midwest, including the RV segment. Originally known as Kunes Country, we've always resonated with our core beliefs: Faith, Family, and Giving Back. These principles aren't just words; they define us.
Our Impact: Beyond Cars, Trucks, SUVs, and RVs
We're more than just dealerships; we're a community. With a strong team of over 2,000 members, we call ourselves family. Together, we are truly committed to bettering lives. A testament to this is our dedication to giving back - 10% of our annual net profits directly benefit charities in the areas we operate. Our commitment shines, evident from our consistent recognition among the "Automotive News' Best Dealerships to Work For", having secured this honor over 30 times!
In The Spotlight
2022 was a monumental year for Kunes. Our visionary, Gregg Kunes, was crowned "Wisconsin's Dealer of the Year" by TIME magazine, a nomination brought forward by the National Automobile Dealer Association's President, William A. Sepic. Gregg showcased his passion at the 105th annual National Automobile Dealer Association's gala in Las Vegas, standing strong among 47 notable industry peers. This accolade wasn't just for his business acumen but also for his unwavering commitment to community welfare.
Our Mission: Driving Forward with Purpose
Our mission is twofold. First, deliver unmatched service to our customers. Second, make a positive mark in every community we touch. Our employees stand at the heart of this mission. When they thrive, our customers benefit. Every car, truck, SUV, and RV that we sell is a commitment - a commitment to helping you achieve your goals, be it getting to work, supporting your family, or even broader community contributions.
Fueling our mission is the Kunes Family Foundation. Through a 10% contribution from each store's pre-tax profits, we support a plethora of charitable endeavors, both local and international. And with foundations deep in Christian values, we believe in honesty, compassion, and community responsibility. These values guide our daily operations, ensuring our customers always experience the best, our employees feel valued, and our communities grow stronger.
