Nice to Meet You!
Hello, I'm Carter Hanke, also known to many as "Carter The Car Guy." I'm a passionate product advisor at McPhillips Toyota, specializing in leasing, financing, and pre-owned vehicles. My journey in the automotive industry spans over a decade, making me one of McPhillips Toyota’s longest-serving and top sales performers, with a notable five-year record.
​
My language skills in English, French, Portuguese, and Tagalog have played a significant role in my career, helping me earn prestigious awards like the DealerRater Certified Employee and Toyota’s Advisor’s Guild Of Excellence. I firmly believe in the philosophy that "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care." This approach has guided me throughout my career and in servicing my customers.
​
Driving my 2023 Toyota RAV4 Prime is one of my greatest joys, as is meeting and assisting new customers - the best parts of my job.
Outside of work, I reside in East St. Paul with my wonderful wife Andrea, our two children, and our dogs Pete and Louie. As a die-hard Jets fan, I enjoy hockey, music, and travelling.
