About DriveTime


Formerly known as Ugly Duckling, the company is a used-car dealership chain that primarily targets low-income customers and those with credit problems.

The Ugly Duckling Rent-A-Car System, Inc. was formed in 1977 by 63-year-old Thomas S. Duck, Sr., a retired insurance salesman. By 1985 Ugly Duckling was the nation's fifth largest, but in 1989 the company declared bankruptcy. In 1990 Ernest C. Garcia II formed a company called Duck Ventures, Inc., which purchased the assets of Ugly Duckling Rent-A-Car. By the mid-1990s Ugly Duckling was gaining popularity in its Arizona home base. By August 1, 1997, Ugly Duckling operated a total of 24 dealerships in Arizona, New Mexico, Florida, Texas, and Nevada, which made it the largest public "buy here, pay here" chain in the nation.

Ugly Duckling also was embracing the Internet as a way to connect to its own customers, having in mind that many were leery of applying for a car loan in person due to the potential embarrassment of rejection. In January 2002 the company name was changed to DriveTime Automotive Group Inc.

Customer Reviews:


“I had basicly given up on getting a car from anyone because of my bad finances. I have really crappy credit because of my divorce and a terible job situation a while back, and every place I tried to go to gave me a thumbs down or just laughed at me so I had pretty much given up on separate financig. I had a 13 yr old car that was nickleing and diming me to death, and when it finaly blew up i knew I had to do somthing.
A friend told me about DriveTime.com and I figured the worse they could do was tell me no right? Turned out they were realy friendly and willing to work with me. I got the car i need. The car is a Dodge and a pretty good one ...... finally I can get to and from work now and pick up my kids from school and everything I need to do.
It's nice to have the Drive Time guys to turn to.” -- Victor W.
