Description

History

Established in 1971.

In late 1957, Cline Dahle, a small-​town farm boy, was searching for a way to make a living in his tiny farming community in southern Idaho. Virtually penniless, he decided to pull up his roots and move in with his brother, Larry, and his brother’s wife in Salt Lake City and set out to find a job.

Throughout the ‘70s Cline’s Datsun franchise picked up steam, offering extraordinary customer service and support and staffed with employees determined to do things the right way: Cline’s way. In 1971, Datsun introduced the Datsun 240z, which changed the industry. Finally, they had an incredible product and business picked up, which enabled them to buy property near 4500 S. State Street where Tim Dahle Nissan Murray and Tim Dahle Infiniti still operate 40 years later.

Tim Dahle, In His Own Words…

I worked many hours learning the business from the bottom up, washing cars, sweeping the lot and picking up cigarette butts. I also spent some time in the Service Department changing oil and stocking parts at the dealership. Long before scan guns and computers, we used microfiche to locate parts and hand-​wrote repair orders and parts invoices.

At 18, I sold my first car at Cline’s Datsun. It was a purple Datsun F-​10, which was Datsun’s first front-​wheel drive car. It was such a rush and so much fun. I decided right then and there what my life course would be and I never turned back. I’m fortunate my dad had the same vision for my future as I did. He directed and guided me throughout the process of dealership management and ownership.
