Tom LaFrankie came on board in 1975 as a sales representative when we were located on West Liberty Avenue known as Benson Hartman Lincoln Mercury. In 1976 Tom became the General Manager and along with owners, George and Jack Benson ran the dealership until 1979. During the 1979 recession Tom and George were able to purchase the dealership and moved it to our present location here in Whitehall. Along the way, there were many other business opportunities Tom and George owned or were involved with. Beacon Insurance, Norwin Dodge, The Greater Pittsburgh Auto Auction, White Oak Chrysler Jeep Dodge, Norwin Kia, and several others. Today, and since 2009, Tom is the President of Benson Lincoln and has partners Walt Bronder - Vice President, and Ryan Carr - Treasurer. Together along with a great staff of long-term co-workers, they keep the day-to-day operation running and are always looking for innovative ideas from Lincoln. Benson Lincoln, over the last 50 years, is the #1 Lincoln dealer in PA and a 29 time President's award for customer satisfaction recipient. This makes Benson Lincoln the #1 Client Satisfaction dealer in the whole United States.
