Independently Owned • Established 2011 • 240+ Vehicles In Stock

Ace Auto Sales began in 2011 as a small, independent repair shop operated out of our home. What started as a hands-on automotive side business gradually expanded as demand in the Brainerd Lakes Area grew. In 2013, we transitioned into full used-vehicle sales at our first dealership location, starting with a handful of cars and steadily building our inventory based on what local buyers were asking for.

Today, Ace Auto Sales offers 240+ Cars, Trucks, SUVs, Vans, Classics, Sleds, and more, reflecting the wide range of needs and preferences of shoppers in Central Minnesota.

Our growth has been shaped by hard work, community demand, and a focus on offering practical options for everyday drivers, families, outdoor enthusiasts, first-time buyers, and those looking for budget-friendly transportation.

Rust-Free Southern Inventory

In recent years, we’ve focused heavily on sourcing hand-selected vehicles from Arizona. These vehicles offer Minnesota shoppers access to rust-free options, which are often preferred due to local climate and road-salt conditions. Bringing in cleaner southern vehicles has become one of the most requested inventory categories among our customers.

Affordable Options for Every Budget

We keep a wide variety of price points available, including:

• 60+ vehicles priced under $10,000

• Vehicles starting at $2,999 and up

• A mix of daily drivers, family vehicles, lifted trucks, classic cars and trucks, SUVs, vans, and seasonal units

Our inventory reflects what buyers in our region consistently look for — a broad range of choices across multiple price categories.

Financing Options to Fit a Variety of Situations

Ace Auto Sales partners with local lenders and works with Dealertrack and CUDL, helping buyers access financing through a wide network of banks and credit unions. These programs give customers flexibility because they:

• Provide multiple lender options in one place

• Support a variety of credit backgrounds

• Streamline the approval process for quicker decisions

Our goal is to make financing accessible and straightforward, whether someone is purchasing their first vehicle or exploring different loan options.

ESC & GAP Protection Options

To support buyers who want additional coverage on their used vehicle purchase, we offer Extended Service Contracts (ESC) and GAP Protection through providers such as Cars Protection Plus and Onwise.

Extended Service Contracts (ESC)

Designed to help with:

• Coverage for major mechanical components

• Roadside assistance, towing, and rental benefits

• Predictable budgeting by reducing unexpected repair expenses

• Transferable coverage options for future resale

GAP Protection

A practical option for many used-car loans, especially when:

• The vehicle is totaled and the loan balance exceeds its actual cash value

• Depreciation impacts the difference between value and payoff amount

• Buyers choose low down payments or longer loan terms

ESC and GAP products allow buyers to tailor coverage based on their budget and driving habits.
