Our story...
Finance Express was established in 2001 after its founder, David Huber, recognized a need for a simple, powerful and affordable dealer management solution for independent dealers. Mr. Huber brought years of experience in the automotive and finance industry together with innovative technology to develop a solution that levels the playing field for independent automobile dealers.
In early 2006, Finance Express formalized an equity partnership with Automotive Finance Corporation (AFC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adesa, Inc. This partnership gave Finance Express traction within the industry and creditability with leading lenders.
In October of 2006, Finance Express acquired software technology company CompuSolutions, Inc. (aka DealTrace), which specialized in integrated Buy Here Pay Here and accounting systems. Together these two companies created FEX 2.0-- the simple, powerful and affordable full-service dealer management and loan servicing system, created especially for the independent used car dealer. The new FEX 2.0 is the only system that fully integrates regional, national, and local lenders into the dealer management system with accounting, collections, buy here pay here, and inventory management, and provides all other tools needed to run an internet connected dealership today.
In May of 2007, Finance Express acquired the Tracker Dealer Management System from Manheim. The purchase of Tracker forges a strong relationship between Finance Express and Manheim Financial Services (MAFS).
