Hi I am James Young, the Finance Manager at Paris Ford and Lincoln. After retiring from law enforcement, I became interested in the automotive industry. I have been in the car business for the past twelve years and for most of that time Paris Ford and Lincoln has been my home. I am married and the proud father of five sons. I thoroughly enjoy watching football as well as hunting, fishing and just spending quality time with my family.

The one thing I have learned over the past twelve years is that financing a vehicle can be one of the most stressful steps in the car buying process and it is my job to make sure this does not happen at our dealership. It is my mission to make sure that each and every customer leaves the dealership feeling as if they made the right decision in their vehicle purchase.
