Thomas is also quick to point out that Wildcat Used Cars isn ’ t just about him .
“ It ’ s Amity and I , not one or the other ,” he said . “ We ’ re a team . We ’ ve been married since 1996 . We ’ re just a team , working and raising our kids .”
Wildcat ’ s success is largely attributed to the Thomases esteem of family values . When they ’ re not in school , sons Orion and Madox help in the family business . Daughter Bristal is still in middle school .
“ I ’ m not sure they ’ ll officially get into the family business one day ,”
Thomas said . “ We hope they do but we want them , at the same time , to go to college or trade school and chase their dreams .”
The couple is still chasing their own dreams too , with Thomas adding they ’ d like to further expand into some franchise such as ATVs , campers , or something entirely different .
“ We ’ re still growing and trying to decide what our next goal is going to be ,” he said . “ It will have to be something that the community has a need for .”
