Tomlinson Motor Company Expands with Sunday Drive in St. Augustine
Gainesville, United States – January 8, 2026 / TOMLINSON MOTOR COMPANY /
Situated conveniently off I-95 on SR 16 in St. Augustine, Sunday Drive delivers the same customer-centric car buying experience that has established Tomlinson Motor Company’s reputation – providing quality, low-mileage, certified vehicles in a welcoming, pressure-free atmosphere, complete with transparent pricing, non-commissioned staff, and no dealer fees.
“We are fond of the name Sunday Drive as it encapsulates the entire essence of our dealerships and the experience we aim to provide for our customers,” remarked Tami Tomlinson, Co-Owner of Tomlinson Motor Company. “Having been family-owned and operated in Gainesville for over three decades, we are thrilled to extend that same laid-back, hassle-free business model to the beach area.”
The new dealership in St. Augustine has been constructed from the ground up, featuring a warm and inviting coastal design.
“It’s not just another big box store,” Tomlinson emphasized. “We wanted it to feel welcoming – a space where customers can take their time and truly enjoy the buying process.”
Sunday Drive anticipates hiring around 30 employees in St. Augustine, while also expanding its current team of 20 in Gainesville.
The idea for Sunday Drive originated approximately 4.5 years ago, rooted in the Tomlinson family’s conviction that St. Augustine represented an ideal market for a dealership experience centered on transparency, comfort, and simplicity.
“We recognized a demand in St. Augustine for a dealership experience focused on transparency and comfort – offering genuine pricing, non-commissioned staff, and no dealer fees,” Tomlinson stated. “St. Augustine is a remarkable place, and we are eager to integrate ourselves into the community.”
Sunday Drive is projected to open its doors between February and March 2026.
For anyone moving to the area, visiting, or referring someone in St. Augustine, Sunday Drive will provide the same reliable service that Gainesville residents have trusted for years.
Tomlinson Motor Company and Sunday Drive will remain family-owned and operated.
