Serving Merritt Island and the Space Coast for Over 60 Years

Since 1965, Jimmie Vickers Tire & Service Center has been proud of our history as Merritt Island’s trusted name for used car sales and service. Founded by Jimmie Vickers, the business was built on a simple philosophy: treat people honestly, do quality work, and always put customers first. Buddy Vickers joined his father full-time after graduating from college and has continued the family tradition ever since. Today, the third generation is involved as well, with Buddy's daughter, Tiffany, working alongside him. More than six decades after opening its doors, Jimmie Vickers Tire & Service Center remains a family business dedicated to serving the community with integrity and care.
