George “Red” Hoagland Sr. brought his Hyundai Automobile Dealership to Winter Haven celebrating their grand opening this week. The brand new location is operated by Hoagland, son George and Justin Hoagland is General Manager. The family has owned various automotive dealerships for more than 60 years.
In addition to great new and used automobiles you may have noticed a large LIVE red bull in the pen out front. Stop by before 3:30 p.m. Saturday, January 19th and guess the weight of the bull. If you are correct you could win $3,000 — NO BULL! The winner will be announced live on WPCV 97 Country at 5 p.m.

I appreciate the new Hyundai dealership, but I read somewhere we can expect a Honda dealership out near them, is that true ?

We have heard talk of a Honda dealership as well but no confirmation as yet.

I don’t know if I’m overlooking it, but I was wondering where this dealership is located.

Good point. A previous post in mid 2007 identified the site on Cypress Gardens Boulevard. It is east of the theme park about a half mile. We should have been more specific.
