When asked what his favorite vehicle on the lot is, he said, "The Lincoln Navigator because it provides the size, weight, ride, and towing capacity I am used to in my 8 Lincoln Town Cars."

In his free time, Dennis enjoys spending time with his family. Whether it's camping trips, holidays, birthdays, or seeing them adopt and carry on family traditions, Dennis enjoys the time with his family. He also enjoys traveling when he has the opportunity.
