Our Story

Where It All Began

In 1950, Wes Baker founded Highway Motors, selling and servicing Studebaker and Willys Jeep vehicles while helping local families with financing and payment plans.

After Studebaker closed in 1967, the business closed as well, ending a family automotive legacy.

Decades later, Randy Wright revived the Highway Motors name, honoring those same values in a new era.

Highway After

what our customers are saying

"Recently I bought a SUV off Randy Wright from Highway Motors, and overall the experience was phenomenal from the second we walked in the building. Randy was straight forward and genuinely means well, but also means business so you know you’re getting a great deal. He walked us through the process step by step making sure we understood each part and how each part effected our deal, as-well as making sure we got all of our worries and concerns taken care of in a swift manor. Not a single hiccup in the process. If you are looking for a great deal and the best experience in the London area then Highway Motors is the way to go."

"While searching for a used vehicle for my daughter, we found one at Highway Motors. Everything was great from the first step we took into their office. Top notch communication, honesty and friendliness. They don’t carry hundreds of vehicles on their lot, they hand pick and do their research so they only have the best quality used vehicles to sell. Highly recommend checking out Highway Motors."
