Hi I'm Daniel Powell. Born and raised in the south country area and long time resident of the East Kootenay. I have been in sales for the most part of my life with my personal goal of treating each and every customer with respect, sincerity and loyalty, so that you will not need to look for a vehicle anywhere else. I personally extend an invitation to drop in and let me help you with any and all your automotive needs.I consider that the top five reasons to buy from Northstar are: 1) it has been around longer than any other dealership in the area. 2) it's been family owned and operated for nearly 50 years. 3) our goal is to treat each and every customer with respect so that they feel they would not want to shop anywhere else. 4) no matter what department customer service comes first. 5) most up to date facility with a fun and friendly atmosphere.Hi I'm Daniel Powell.

My name is Troy Ensign and my family and I moved to Cranbrook in September of 2008 and I have been employed in the parts department at Northstar Motors since that time. I have enjoyed living in Cranbrook and have made many lifelong friends here. I enjoy the outdoors in the summer with my family, going to the beach, boating, and sitting around a campfire and having barbecues. In the winter we have also gone skiing many times to Kimberley and have enjoyed tobogganing at various locations and had a great time. I enjoy going on family holidays, playing basketball, cycling and watching hockey. I have met many great people and enjoy helping my customers with any parts or vehicle questions they have. My colleagues and I have over 75 years of automotive experience collectively and are friendly and knowledgeable. We do our very best to get our customers the right parts the first time and rectify any concerns in a timely fashion. I feel confident in selling genuine GM and AC Delco parts to my customers and feel the pricing is very competitive. I look forward to meeting any new customers and continuing to assist any past customers with their automotive needs.My name is Troy Ensign and my family and I moved to Cranbrook in September of 2008 and I have been employed in the parts department at Northstar Motors since that time.
