SONS Auto Group: A Family Legacy SONS Auto Group is the latest in a lineage of successful auto sales experts. Clay, Slater, and Street Nalley’s roots run deep. Since 1918, the Nalleys have thrived in the auto sales and service industry. Like their father, grandfather, and great grandfather, the sons have been paving their way in the auto retail world. After decades of success with a string of dealerships, their father, C.V. ‘Jim’ Nalley understood where the future of the automotive industry was heading. In the 1990s, he consolidated his nine Atlanta area car and truck outlets with like-minded groups to form the Asbury Automotive Group. This partnership provided a safety net for franchises and helped dealerships survive tough economic times. After working for their dad and Asbury Automotive Group, the sons began to branch out and continue their family legacy. They started by purchasing four Hank Aaron dealerships. This was the start of the aptly named SONS Auto Group. Like their forefathers, their goals are to provide exceptional values and great customer service for drivers in the Georgia and Alabama areas.
