Why Choose Chacon Autos
We Believe Everyone In Our Community Deserves a Quality Used Car
Our used car dealership was founded nearly 60 years ago with the goal of treating customers well and providing them with quality used cars no matter their financial situation. We know how important it is to buy a used car from a dealership that respects you and listens to your needs. We take pride in providing quality used cars, trucks and SUVs with flexible financing to families across Texas.
Since we opened our first buy here pay here car dealership in Dallas in 1958, we have helped tens of thousands of Texas families buy a quality pre-owned car, truck or SUV with financing that’s right for them. Decades later, the core values and principles still remain. Our business motto is still “What’s good for our customer is good for us.”

Our 50-year History
Chacon Autos was founded by William Chaney in 1958 as a single buy-here, pay-here used car dealership near downtown Dallas. In the 1980s, William’s two sons went to work for the family business. With their arrival came the expansion of the dealership to other locations in the Dallas – Fort Worth area.
The goal of founder William Chaney was to always provide affordable vehicles to people in the community with hard work and customer service as the driving force behind his operations. He set a good example of honesty and integrity to his family members, employees and customers.
As younger generations carry on the Chacon legacy, his values will always remain at the forefront of our planning and decision making as Chacon Autos expands in to other cities in Texas.
