Ten Minutes East of West Jordan

Peterson Auto Sales — family-owned since 1965 and a two-time Utah Quality Dealer of the Year (1989 and 2023) — sits about 10–15 minutes east of West Jordan on State Street, and is easier to reach than the I-15 dealer cluster down toward Lehi. The lot rotates 60-90 used cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and commercial vehicles. Every car comes with a free CARFAX, a flat $289 documentation fee, and no commission salespeople.

West Jordan runs on work vehicles. Contractors, plumbers, electricians, HVAC crews, and landscapers rely on dependable work trucks and commercial vans, and the city's mining-heritage roots show up in buyers who want a no-nonsense dealership over a high-volume sales floor. At Peterson Auto, we rotate a steady mix of used trucks — half-tons through three-quarter-tons, 2WD and 4WD — alongside cargo vans suited to small-business work. Self-employed buyers, LLCs, and sole proprietors typically finance through our commercial auto loan program , and we work with more than 40 lenders , including subprime specialists. Per Cox Automotive Insights , used-vehicle pricing has remained elevated relative to pre-2020 norms — our flat $289 doc fee, compared with the $400–$799+ other dealerships charge, keeps the all-in number honest.

The Family Garage

West Jordan's footprint is built around households, not commuter traffic. The single-family neighborhoods that fan out from Bangerter Highway, Mountain View Corridor, and 7800 South — Jordan Landing, Bingham Junction, and the older streets near Gardner Village — are full of two- and three-vehicle garages, where it's not uncommon to have multiple cars like a daily driver, a work vehicle, and a teen-driver's first car sharing the same driveway. Our family-run business loves helping families, and that's why we've had many repeat customers from West Jordan over the years.

For West Jordan families with a work truck or commercial van in the driveway, the second vehicle has a different job. It handles every part of family life: school pickup, the grocery run, and the trip downtown to a Jazz game — not the job site. That car may not need 4WD or a heavy-duty bed, but it does need to be reliable and get good gas mileage. Used sedans and crossovers in the $10,000–$15,000 range — Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Honda CR-V, among others — are often available in our inventory and are great options for families. It's not uncommon for the same West Jordan family to get all their vehicles from us.

How is Peterson Auto different from the typical car dealership?
