Meet the Management Team 

Barry Bennett, Operator 

With nearly 30 years in the industry, Barry Bennett leads Honest1 South Tampa, Lakewood Ranch, and Cypress Ranch. His priority is to deliver the best experiences for every Driver, every time. Though born in Vermont, Barry is proud to call the shores of the Tampa area home. He’s a huge sports fan, a golf lover, and never passes up a chance to eat a good meal on the water. 

“The most rewarding part of being in this industry is turning someone’s stressful day around by solving the problem of a broken-down vehicle. Let’s face it—no one comes in excited to see us. But seeing a customer leave with a smile, relieved and thankful they came to us, is a feeling like no other.” — Barry Bennett 

Kevin Duncan, Manager 

Growing up in his father’s full-service gas stations, Kevin Duncan spent his childhood learning from some of the best Technicians in the industry. Now with 30+ years in auto care, he’s held every role from Shop Technician to Shop Manager. And this passion comes through in every Driver’s experience. Many of our 5-star reviews mention his “world-class” service. Kevin and his wife are the proud parents of four amazing daughters and two sons-in-law who are more like best friends. He loves fishing and showing off his 1919 Ford Model T!
