Your Neighbor. Your Dealer.

Rooted in Hutchinson. Giving Back Every Day.

The Malone family has owned and operated Jay Malone Ford since 2005, on a Highway 7 West corner that has been home to a Hutchinson dealership since 1980 — and we've never forgotten that the people of Hutchinson are the reason we're here. Being a family-owned dealership isn't just something we say. It means Jay, Jake, and Jordan Malone are active, invested members of this community long after the paperwork is signed.

From sponsoring youth athletics and school programs to serving on local boards and showing up at job fairs, our family is involved in the fabric of Hutchinson — not because it's good for business, but because this is home. Below is a look at where you'll find us when we're not on the lot.
