  • Kevin Ichter
    Sales Manager

    My name is Kevin Ichter, Sales Manager here at Vann Underwood.  I started here in April of 2019 after relocating from Lexington NC where I was a Sales Manager with another Chrysler dealership.  My way of selling cars seemed to go good with the way Vann has been running the store for years now. Which is upfront, bottom line pricing and being honest with every aspect of the deal. Feel free to call me anytime if you want to discuss buying a car or even selling yours.
    Moved to NC from Clearwater FL in 2012 after spending most of my life in the Sunshine State. 
    When I am not at work, I love anything having to do with being outside. Love fishing and hiking, in 2009 I spent 3 months hiking 500 miles of the Appalachian Trail from GA to TN.
